Abstract: The present invention concerns a container and a closure comprised of a dual layer biodegradable composite material. In addition, the invention concerns a method for forming such container and closure, as well as use thereof. In particular, the present invention concerns a container suitable to be used with liquid cosmetic product, especially for such exposed for hot moist environmental conditions.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for producing nanoparticles of organic substances, in particular by controlled expansion of pressurized solutions. The method comprises: admixing the organic substance and a supercritical fluid to form a mixture at a first pressure; decreasing the first pressure gradually to a second pressure so that a flow of the mixture is formed and nucleation of the organic substance in the mixture is initiated; and, decreasing the second pressure to a third pressure, so that solidification of the fluid of the mixture, comprising the nucleated organic substance, is initiated. The device comprises: a pressure chamber (1) for a mixture of the organic substance and a supercritical fluid; a collection chamber (5) for the nanoparticles; an outlet tube (2) connecting the pressure chamber to the collection chamber (5); and, one or more second nozzles (6).
