  • Publication number: 20050058498
    Abstract: A cosmetic product dispenser, typically mascara, includes at least a container forming a reservoir for the cosmetic product, and a cap for sealed closure of the reservoir, optionally provided with an applicator for the cosmetic product. All or part of the reservoir, and at least a side wall of the reservoir, are formed by at least a thermoplastic material moulded part. The thermoplastic material includes EVOH and a second thermoplastic material selected from PA, PET, PBT, and ionomer resin.

  • Publication number: 20050042017
    Abstract: The dispenser (1) includes a receptacle (2) for containing the cosmetic product (7, 7?, 7?) and equipped with a threaded neck (20) and an applicator (3), typically including a threaded cap (30), an axial rod (32) integrated at its [word missing: presumably “end”] into an application material (33) able to take up a small amount of the product, with the neck (20) being equipped with a wiper (4) forming a molded part including a skirt (40) coaxial to the neck (20), an upper flange (41) and a lip (42) that can wipe the application material (33), and is characterized in that the wiper (4), typically via the skirt (40) and/or the upper flange (41), cooperates with the neck (20) by a weld area (5) such that the wiper (4) is irreversibly integrated into the neck (20) by forming a single piece with it.

  • Patent number: 5249813
    Abstract: A sealing ring structure for effecting a fluid seal between a stationary member having an annular groove and a cylindrical member having a longitudinal axis movable relative to the groove includes a sealing ring disposed in the groove along with an outer annular stressing member disposed radially outwardly of the sealing ring and biasing the sealing ring into engagement with the cylindrical member. The sealing ring has an end surface facing a low pressure side of the groove and an outer surface in contact with the stressing member. The end surface and the outer surface intersect to form an edge in circular line contact with the low pressure side of the groove. The end surface is inclined toward a high pressure side of the groove with respect to a line perpendicular to the axis of the movable member and the outer surface is inclined with respect to a direction parallel to the axis of the movable member.

  • Patent number: 4963427
    Abstract: This invention relates to a co-extruded multilayer film and particularly for vacuum packaging food products. The film comprises at least one layer formed by ethylene-vinyl acetate-copolymer with a vinyl acetate content preferably comprised between 9% and 26% range by weight. The film is preferably radiated at a lower level than 20 MRad. The film is adaped to resist high stretch ratios during the packaging process, so that packaging of bodies with projecting portions or cavities is possible, without breaking the film.

  • Patent number: 4680340
    Abstract: A seal layer for an easy open package consisting essentially of 40% or less, by weight, of a first polymer having a melt flow index of less than 5 selected from the group consisting of ionomers and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers, and 60% or more by weight of a second polymer having a melt flow index greater than 20 being selected from the group consisting of low density polyethylene, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers, and modified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers, whereby the second polymer is a low density polyethylene if the first polymer is an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.
