Abstract: An injection molded test-tube-shaped preform, which is subjected to biaxial stretch blow molding, includes a circumferential wall including a longitudinal strip-shaped portion that is made of a transparent or a semi-transparent B resin and that is formed in a longitudinal strip shape penetrating the circumferential wall in a circumferentially predetermined position in the circumferential wall over a predetermined height range. A remaining portion of the circumferential wall excluding the longitudinal strip-shaped portion is made of an A resin that is obtained by coloring a synthetic resin. A portion of the B resin constituting the longitudinal strip-shaped portion flows around an opposite side to the circumferentially predetermined position in which the longitudinal strip-shaped portion is formed, to be laminated in the vicinity of a portion of the circumferential wall made of the A resin that is close to an inner circumferential surface of the circumferential wall.

Abstract: A laminated and molded body obtained by coextruding and molding at least two kinds of resin materials is preferable as a blow-molding aimed preform, a direct-blow molded bottle, a tube, or a blow molded tube, and has at least one layer constituted of a colored layer having a thickness continuously or intermittently varied in a direction parallel to the extruding direction of the at least one layer and/or in another direction intersecting the extruding direction, thereby enhancing the gradation effect.
