  • Multilayered structure having a liquid layer on the surface thereof
    Patent number: 10786979
    Abstract: A multilayered structure having a liquid layer (5) on a surface of a plastic underlying layer (3), wherein a liquid diffusion prevention layer (1) is provided on the lower side of the underlying layer (3) to suppress or block a diffusion of a liquid that forms the liquid layer (5), and a covering ratio F of the liquid layer (5) is maintained to be not less than 0.5. With this structure, the surface properties of the liquid layer (5) can be stably maintained over long periods of time.
    Type: Grant

  • Pour-out member for discharging viscous fluid
    Patent number: 9580207
    Abstract: A pour-out member or, for example, a container has a pour-out port 1a through which a viscous fluid is discharged, wherein a hydrophobic layer of fine hydrophobic inorganic particles 20 is selectively formed on an upper end surface of a base member forming the pour-out port 1a. The hydrophobic layer formed on the pour-out port 1a of the pour-out member is not removed or broken through the repetitive use, and stably exhibits a function of preventing the liquid from creeping over extended periods of time.

  • BLOW-FORMED CONTAINER HAVING EXCELLENT SLIPPING PROPERTY FOR FLUID CONTENTS AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING THE SAME
    Publication number: 20160039557
    Abstract: A blow-formed container having a liquid layer 3 formed in an amount of not more than 10 g/m2 on the whole inner surface of the stretched portion thereof. The container has a liquid layer that is thinly and uniformly formed on the inner surface thereof, the liquid layer exhibiting slipping property for the fluid content and enabling the container to exhibit excellent slip-down property maintaining stability.
