  • Publication number: 20060183857
    Abstract: Thermoplastic polymer compositions, films, continues, closures, laminates can comprise a modified vinyl polymer said modified polymer having a moiety comprising a cyclodextrin compound. The cyclodextrin compound, locked into the polymer structure, can absorb impurities, permeants, or other undesirable volatile materials. The cooperation between the cyclodextrin grafted onto the thermoplastic polymer and the polymer structure can provide barrier properties to a film, web or other polymer structure. A permeant or a contaminant can be complexed or trapped within the polymer and held within the film or Web preventing the permeant or contaminant from passing into the interior of a container or enclosure.

  • Patent number: 7018712
    Abstract: Volatile organic compound or other materials are produced in the thermoplastic manufacture of thermoplastic polyester beverage containers. Such materials can be eluted into beverages such as carbonated beverages, sparkling or still water from the polyester. Such thermoplastic polyester resins can be manufactured with a material that can prevent the formation of, or react with, and absorb volatile by-products during the formation of thermoplastic preforms or containers from the thermoplastic pellet or chip. Further, as the preform is blown into a polyester container, the active materials of the invention prevent the generation of additional undesirable volatile materials. Lastly, the scavenger material can act as a barrier that prevents transport of materials from the exterior of the container into the container contents.

  • Patent number: 7014909
    Abstract: Volatile organic compounds containing carbonyl groups can be released by lithographic printing materials including inks, fountain solutions and printed materials. Volatile organic compounds containing carbonyl groups can also have a serious negative impact on the taste or odor of staple materials such as foodstuffs. The volatile materials can be retained in the lithographic compositions and printed materials can be trapped in the printed materials using an improved reactive technology involving a chemically reactive trap for such volatile carbonyl containing compounds.

    Abstract: Volatile organic compound or other materials are produced in the thermoplastic manufacture of thermoplastic polyester beverage containers. Such materials can be eluted into beverages such as carbonated beverages, sparkling or still water from the polyester. Such thermoplastic polyester resins can be manufactured with a substituted cyclodextrin material that can prevent the formation of, or react with, and absorb volatile by-products during the formation of thermoplastic preforms or containers from the thermoplastic pellet or chip. Further, as the preform is blown into a polyester container, the active materials of the invention prevent the generation of additional undesirable volatile materials.

  • Patent number: 6894085
    Abstract: The incorporation of nanosized metal particles into cyclodextrin-containing material leads to a “reactive” barrier material having excellent barrier properties. Also, it has been found that the presence of nanosized metal or metal alloy particles in a barrier material such as thermoplastic material, wherein said material comprises cyclodextrin derivatives, may be advantageous in achieving excellent barrier properties. The barrier material of the present invention may provide improved barrier resistance to a variety of permeants and/or impurities. The diffusion of volatile substances through the barrier material may be prevented by adding compatible derivatized cyclodextrin and nanosized metal particles to the material used.

  • Patent number: 6391946
    Abstract: Carbonated beverages can have a substantially reduced concentration of water soluble materials derived from biaxially oriented thermoformed beverage containers. Such containers can comprise a permeant barrier and an active trap for water soluble materials that can be removed from the thermoplastic by extraction into the carbonated beverage. The improved container material comprises a blow molded thermoplastic polyester web comprising a compatible modified cyclodextrin material having pendent moieties or substituents that render the cyclodextrin material compatible with the container thermoplastic. The cyclodextrin material, after it is added to the polymer material, acts as a barrier and to trap extractable materials as they permeate through the thermoplastic polyester. The cyclodextrin molecule has a large center cavity having properties that increase the likelihood that organic molecules will be absorbed and trapped in the center pore.
