Abstract: The present invention relates to a coextruded, if appropriate biaxially stretched seamless multilayer tubular casing, and also to use thereof for encasing pasty or liquid goods, such as, for example, producing sausage in molds.

Abstract: The invention relates to a single- or multilayered tubular food casing, in particular for foods which are scalded, cooked or heated in other ways in the casing, preferably for cooked-meat or scalded-emulsion sausages, hams, cured products or processed cheese, wherein a composition is applied to the internal surface of the food casing, which composition comprises at least one binder that is suitable for foods and at least one functional substance which can be transferred to the food.

Abstract: The invention relates to a single layer or multilayer tubular food casing, in particular for foods which are scalded, cooked or heated in other ways in the casing, preferably for cooked-meat or scalded-emulsion sausages, hams, cured products or processed cheese, wherein the invention only relates to those casings which have an internal layer which consists of a thermoplastic polymer or predominantly comprises one such, having a substantially smooth, non-absorbent, non-porous and non-felt-like and non-woven-fabric-like surface.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a coextruded, if appropriate biaxially stretched seamless multilayer tubular casing, and also to use thereof for encasing pasty or liquid goods, such as, for example, producing sausage in molds.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a food casing for sausage products, in particular to a tubular sausage casing based on cellulose having an internally applied coating composition and adhesion between filling and sausage casing improved thereby.

Abstract: A description is given of a tubular artificial sausage casing and a process for preparing the same, characterized in that the sausage casing is closed at one end or two ends by a yarn having a metal insert.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a multilayer seamless tubular film as a food casing with barrier action for oxygen and/or water vapor, which is capable of absorbing and storing a food additive and releasing it to the food. It is used as an envelope of pasty or liquid materials and is particularly suitable as a synthetic sausage casing. The invention further relates to a particular liquid smoke composition which, in combination with such a tubular film, is particularly suitable for transferring the dyes and flavorings present to the food.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a regulator for the targeted provision of moisture which is uniform with respect to time, for example in packaging or transport containers.

Abstract: At least three-layered, coextruded, tubular, biaxially stretched seamless tubular casing comprising, viewed from the outside inwards, a) an outer layer A which comprises as the main component a polyamide or a mixture of several polyamides, b) optionally a layer B which has an oxygen-blocking character, c) optionally a core layer C which comprises as the main component a polyamide or a mixture of several polyamides, d) a layer D which has an adhesion-promoting action with respect to the adjacent layer C or B or A and the adjacent layer E and e) an inner layer E which comprises as the main component a polyamide or a mixture of several polyamides, f) optionally further layers and additives, wherein g) at least one layer comprises natural fibres having a fibre length in the range of from 5 to 10,000 ?m and/or a natural fibre mixture of various fibre types and/or fibre lengths. The use thereof as a foodstuffs casing is also described.

Abstract: A tubular sausage casing based on cellulose hydrate and exhibits low adhesion to the filling is disclosed. The casing has a coating applied to its inside, the coating comprising a water-soluble polyvinyl alcohol and water-soluble cellulose ether. In an additional embodiment the coating further contains at least one member selected from the group consisting of oil and fatty diketene. A process for the preparation of the casing is also disclosed.

Abstract: A one- or multi-layered seamless tubular casing which is permeable to smoke, characterized in that at least one layer of the seamless tubular casing comprises a mixture of polyamide and natural fibres and optionally additives, wherein the sum of the layer thicknesses is between 5 and 200 ?m and the permeability of the seamless tubular casing to water vapour, in accordance with ASTM F1249-01 at a temperature of 23° C. and a relative atmospheric humidity of 85%, is at least 25 cm3/(m2×day×bar), is described.

Abstract: A fiber-reinforced sausage casing having a non-stick coating on its interior surface is described. In particular, the coating on the interior surface of the sausage casing includes the following four active components: a chromium-fatty acid complex; a fatty diketene; a polyamine-polyamide-epichlorohydrin resin; and a cellulose ether. The weight ratio of (i) the chromium-fatty complex and diketene to (ii) the polyamine-polyamide-epichorohydrin resin is greater than or equal to 5:1. The sausage casing may be used to contain scalded-meat emulsion sausage, raw sausage and cooked ham.

Abstract: A description is given of a tubular artificial sausage casing and a process for preparing the same, characterized in that the sausage casing is closed at one end or two ends by a yarn having a metal insert.

Abstract: A description is given of a fiber-reinforced cellulose-hydrate-based tubular sausage casing which, on the inner surface, for easy peelability from the sausage mixture, has a coating consisting of four active components, characterized in that the components are a chromium-fatty acid complex, a fatty diketene, a polyamine-polyamide-epichlorohydrin resin and a cellulose ether.
