Patent number: 10066093Abstract: Barrier films are prepared from a blend of two high density polyethylene blend components and a high performance organic nucleating agent. The two high density polyethylene blend components have substantially different melt indices. Large reductions in the moisture vapor transmission rate of the film are observed in the presence of the nucleating agent when the melt indices of the two blend components have a ratio of greater than 10/1. The resulting barrier films are suitable for the preparation of packaging for dry foods such as crackers and breakfast cereals.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2017Date of Patent: September 4, 2018Assignee: NOVA Chemicals (International) S.A.Inventors: Norman Dorien Joseph Aubee, Douglas Checknita, P Scott Chisholm, Patrick Lam, Sarah Marshall, Denny Paul Sauvageau, Tony Tikuisis, Tingting Yu Chuang

Patent number: 9801397Abstract: The apparatus (100) includes a die head (118) for extruding a main comestible material to form an extrudate body. A plurality of nozzles (160, FIG. 7) is located within the die head for introducing a comestible fluid into the extrudate body to form a plurality of filled capillaries. A control system (182) is capable of selectively connecting at least one of the nozzles to any one of at least two different fluid filling sources (150A, 15 OB). The control system may be capable of connecting each of the nozzles independently to different fluid sources or the nozzles may be arranged into two or more groups of flu idly interconnected nozzles that can each be independently switched between different fluid sources. The apparatus can be used to form products in which the fillings in the capillaries are varied or in which an image is formed in cross section. The apparatus can also be used to switch production between products having different fillings without stopping extrusion.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2012Date of Patent: October 31, 2017Assignee: CADBURY UK LIMITEDInventors: Peter Clarke, Sarah Marshall, Clive R T Norton
