Abstract: A method for applying a label, and a label for in-mold molding which comprises a printed layer formed on a surface of a non-oriented plastic base film over which a membrane layer for bonding to be welded by the heat of molded article at the time of the in-mold molding is overlapped. The label is inserted into a mold for the in-mold molding, the label is held on the proper position in the mold by vacuum suction, or by static electricity, and a moldable article, such as a container, is molded by injecting, filling the plastics into the mold or by expanding a parison which was placed in the mold.

Abstract: This invention relates to a saturated polyester bottle-shaped container and a method of fabricating the same from a material such as polyethylene terephthalate incorporating high transparency and superior mechanical surface strength. The hard coating is formed by the steps of coating an ultraviolet curable coating of methyl methacrylate resin on the surface of the body and irradiating ultraviolet rays over the surface of the body coated with the hard coating. Thus, the bottle-shaped container can largely enhance the wear resistance and extreme smoothness of the surface to eliminate dirt adherence onto the surface. In a second embodiment, an ultraviolet ray curable coating is coated onto the bottle, followed by a transparent resin coating which is cross linked with the ultraviolet ray curable coating.
