Abstract:
Blow molded containers and methods for making the same are provided. A blow molded container has a container wall including a thermoplastic polymer material having a rheology melt strength (Rms) of at least 30 Pa · s2. A method of making a container includes providing a material sheet including at least one thermoplastic polymer layer having a rheology melt strength (Rms) of at least 30 Pa · s2, forming the material sheet into a tube, sealing the tube at a seal area, and blow molding the tube to form a container.

Blow molded containers and methods for making the same are provided. A blow molded container has a container wall including a thermoplastic polymer material having a rheology melt strength (Rms) of at least 30 Pa ⋅ s2. A method of making a container includes providing a material sheet including at least one thermoplastic polymer layer having a rheology melt strength (Rms) of at least 30 Pa ⋅ s2, forming the material sheet into a tube, sealing the tube at a seal area, and blow molding the tube to form a container.
Abstract:
The present description includes containers having an improved puncture design that can be punctured without substantial deformation of the container. Such containers are particularly suitable for use in preparing beverages using automatic machines, particularly those used for preparation of single serve beverages. Also provided are thermoplastic materials having improved punctureability for use in containers, containers for preparation of a beverage, and methods for preparing a beverage using such containers.
