Abstract: A multi-layer article for storing a product, such as a pharmaceutical product, includes a first layer that includes a polychlorotrifluoroethylene and/or copolymer of polychlorotrifluoroethylene and vinylidene fluoride. The article also includes a tie layer disposed on the first layer. The tie layer includes an ethylene acrylate resin. The article further includes a second layer that is disposed on the tie layer. The second layer includes a polyester, polycarbonate, polypropylene, polyethylene, or combinations thereof. The article further optionally includes two optional layers each independently including a polychlorotrifluoroethylene and/or copolymer of polychlorotrifluoroethylene and vinylidene fluoride, or an ethylene acrylate resin, or a polyester, polycarbonate, polypropylene, polyethylene, or combinations thereof. The article has a clarity of at least about 90% as determined using ASTM D1003-13.

Abstract: An applicator 10 includes a barrel 12 for containing a semisolid medicinal, the barrel including a large diameter cylindrical section 16, a small diameter cylindrical section 18 and an annular sloped transition section 20 that connects the large diameter cylindrical section and the small diameter cylindrical section, the sections being coaxial with each other, the small diameter cylindrical section including an inner surface defining an internal cavity for containing the medicinal, a first end 30 with a first opening 32 and equiangularly spaced, axially aligned evacuation channels 28 in the inner surface for venting air out of the barrel when the internal cavity is filled with the medicinal, and the large diameter cylindrical section includes a second opposite end with a second opening 24; a rubber plunger 58 for pushing the medicinal through the first opening, the plunger being slidably positioned in sealing contact with the inner surface of the small diameter cylindrical section; a plunger rod 86 connected
