Abstract: A method of making a texture-coated and/or insulation coated container from a flat paperboard blank in which a heat-hardenable liquid polymeric binder texturizing and or insulating agent coating mixture is applied to one surface of the blank in a pattern of covered and open areas. This coating mixture is subjected to heat to cure the polymeric binder and expand the texturizing and/or insulating agent, optionally treated with moisture, and optionally heated to form the blank into the shape of a container, and the container produced by this method. The containers such as cups, plates, etc., are useful in food service. These containers have a coefficient of static friction which is about 0.2 to 2.0 and over and a kinetic coefficient of friction which is about 0.22 to 1.5.

Abstract: Oxygen scavenging materials incorporated into or attached to a package such as a gable-top or rectangular carton, used to package foods, beverages or other oxygen sensitive materials, and thereby increase shelf-life by decreasing oxygen in the headspace of the package, and decreasing oxidation of the packaged product.

Abstract: Composites of paper and bioriented polyester plastic film are made by passing a web of paperboard and a web of plastic film, with a layer of extruded molten polymer impregnating and bonding agent between the webs, through a nip. The process involves controlling one or more of the speed of the webs, the temperature of the molten polymer, the pressure or spacing of the rolls at the nip, and the rate of extrusion, relative to the porosity and surface characteristics of the paper web such that a portion of the molten polymer impregnates partially into and becomes part of the paper web and a substantial portion lies outwardly of the surface of the paper web and solidifies to form a new surface to which the film is bonded and which it is supported clear of the paper surface. The molten polymer may be polyethylene or an ethylene acrylic acid copolymer. These composites are useful in forming corrugated structures which may be used for baking in convection ovens.

Abstract: A collapsible container is formed by folding a two-layer blank having a unitary flexible layer and a separated rigid layer into a shape determined by the number of side panels of the blank. The container is held in the assembled position by fastened corresponding pairs of fasteners on adjacent side panels. The flexible and rigid layers are joined together by lamination and/or stitching. The containers are reversible, so that either the rigid or flexible layer may be exposed on the outside of the assembled container.

Abstract: A paper container to hold liquids or solid material of light and heavy viscosity. Said container has an inner film liner, but not limited to, which conforms to the configuration of an outer container, and is secured to the open end, the side wall, and bottom of said outer container. The shape of the outer container may be, but not limited to, round,square or rectangular.

Abstract: The specification discloses a layered composite containing a barrier layer comprising clay homogeneously dispersed in a continuous phase of polymeric material. The barrier layer is especially useful in the manufacture of liquid food containers. The clay/polymer barrier layer is formed by dispersing the clay in molten polymeric material to form a homogeneously dispersed clay in a continuous polymer phase. The barrier layer is then applied adjacent one surface of a paperboard component of the composite at a thickness ranging from about 1 to 30 microns. The paperboard may be coated or uncoated at the time the barrier layer is applied, and additional polymeric barrier layers and tie or adhesive layers may be used in combination with the barrier layer to provide reduced oxygen and water vapor transport through the composite.

Abstract: An improved device and method for packaging, transportation, or handling in storage of products and materials, and especially materials such as painted or powder coated products and powder materials. The invention is understood to relate to a container in the form of a cardboard box having a liner of geotextile fabric. Optionally, the box has an inner box sandwiching the liner between itself and the outer box.

Abstract: A tray and a blank for forming a tray for holding foodstuff or the like which tray is formed from paperboard or similar foldable sheet material, the tray including the base wherein the base has a doubled skinned zone providing a void wherein means are provided to give fluid communication between the internal surface of the base and said void so that fluid present in the tray can drain into the void.

Abstract: A composite can having improved “green” strength is made by pattern printing adhesive onto the exterior label or cover such that the adhesive covers less than 100 percent of the surface of the label. The total amount of adhesive applied between the label and the paperboard body wall is thereby reduced, so that less moisture is added on to the paperboard relative to conventional can-making processes in which adhesive is flooded onto the entire surface of the label. A preferred embodiment of the invention comprises an easy-open can, such as a dough can, having the adhesive applied with relatively denser coverage on the portion of the label that overlies the spiral butt joint that is formed between edges of the spirally wound paperboard body ply, and with relatively less dense coverage on other portions of the label.

Abstract: A container is manufactured by means of folding and sealing, and is intended to be used in extremely humid conditions, such as in an autoclave or in a cooling tunnel. The container has at least one liquid absorbing layer and all the cut edges of the container are protected.

Abstract: A laminated paperboard package is produced by initially printing graphics by high speed printing on a sheet of clay-coated publication paper. The printed paper is then continuously bonded to a surface of cellulosic base layer, to provide a laminated product. The cellulosic base layer consists of at least one base ply of unbleached fibers and at least one ply of bleached or dyed fibers. Alternatively, instead of a ply of bleached or dyed fibers, a second layer of paper may be laminated to the base ply. The laminated product is then die cut to the desired shape, folded and glued into the configuration of a box or container. The substrate may be either coated, or a ply is provided, to prevent moisture or oil from the contained product from seeping through the base layer to the printed paper.
