Abstract: A container for a moisture-sensitive product. The container has an openable container body defining an interior volume for holding the product. More specifically, a rigid container defining an interior volume for holding a moisture-sensitive product, and comprising at least an inner layer and an outer layer, the inner and outer layers being coextruded layers, the inner layer comprising a polymeric material and a desiccant material, the outer layer comprising a moisture-barrier material.

Abstract: A multilayer container having a structural layer of a mixture of a high density polyethylene and a linear low density maleic anhydride modified polyethylene (LLDPE maleic anhydride), preferably in an amount of about 0.01 to about 0.20 percent by weight. The multilayer container has an oxygen barrier layer disposed adjacent the outer structural layer. In a preferred embodiment, the oxygen barrier layer includes EVOH. The LLDPE maleic anhydride facilitates bonding of the structural layer to the oxygen barrier layer.
