Abstract: A container for alcohol, e.g., a wine bottle, formed of a polymer wall has a body that terminates in a base, a shoulder, and a neck, the shoulder forming a tapered region between the neck and the body, and the neck terminating in a finish. The polymer wall is sufficiently thick to withstand extraction forces, one hour after capping, of between 12 and 40 daN when a natural cork stopper is used and between 10 and 45 daN when a synthetic stopper is used.
Abstract: A container for alcohol, e.g., a wine bottle, formed of a polycarbonate wall sandwiched between exterior and interior coatings, at least one of which may be an epoxy of 4,4?-isopropylidenedicyclohexanol and 1-chloro-2,3,-epoxypropane, crosslinked with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane. The polycarbonate wall may be an extrusion blow molded monolithic form at least 1.5 mm thick, and either or both of the exterior coating and the interior coating may have a thickness between 1 nm and 100 ?m, inclusive.
