  • Patent number: 10252006
    Abstract: A syringe assembly of the present invention is composed of an outer cylinder and a seal cap. The outer cylinder has an outer cylinder body part, a piercing needle mounting part, and a piercing needle fixed to the piercing needle mounting part. The seal cap has a closed distal end part, an open proximal end part, a piercing needle mounting part-accommodating part accommodating a distal end portion of the piercing needle mounting part, a piercing needle accommodating part, and a pierceable part into which the piercing needle tip is pierceable. A polyparaxylylene coating is provided on an inner surface of the piercing needle mounting part-accommodating part of the seal cap or on an outer surface of the piercing needle mounting part of the outer cylinder. The inner surface of the piercing needle mounting part-accommodating part of the seal cap and the outer surface of the piercing needle mounting part of the outer cylinder are kept in close contact with each other through the polyparaxylylene coating.

  • Patent number: 10086148
    Abstract: An assembly of the present invention for a syringe is composed of a barrel, made of cyclic polyolefin, which has a barrel body having a distal end part and a piercing needle which has a piercing needle tip at its distal end and is fixed to a piercing needle fixing portion of the barrel and a seal cap mounted on the barrel. The seal cap is formed of a thermoplastic elastomer composition containing as its main component a mixture of a styrene-based thermoplastic elastomer and a softener, for hydrocarbon-based rubber, which has a kinematic viscosity of 1 to 5,000 mm2s?1 at 100 degrees C. and a naphthenic carbon ratio (% CN) of not more than 20% when said naphthenic carbon ratio is measured by ring analysis.

  • Publication number: 20180009583
    Abstract: A rubber stopper for a medicine container has a rubber stopper body and a coating layer directly applied to a surface exposed in the medicine container. The coating layer is more flexible than a forming material of the rubber stopper body. The said coating layer comprises a composition containing a silicone-based resin which comprises a condensate of a reactive silicone having a terminal silanol group, and wherein the condensate contains a siloxane bond derived from the silanol group.

  • Publication number: 20170203052
    Abstract: A syringe assembly includes an outer cylinder having a cylindrical piercing needle mounting part, a piercing needle fixed the cylindrical piercing needle mounting part and a seal cap. The piercing needle has a piercing needle tip at a distal end. The seal cap has a closed distal end part, an open proximal end part, and a pierceable part into which the piercing needle tip is pierceable. The seal cap is formed of a rubber composition containing a mixture of butyl rubber and diene-based rubber as a base polymer thereof, and the piercing needle tip is in a state of being pierced into the pierceable part of the seal cap.
