Latest Patents
Hanno Käss holds a patent for a method for blow forming a container made of plastic and for coating the inside of said container. This invention relates to a method for blow forming a container from a parison made of plastic. After heating, the container is preformed by gas injected into it at a low pressure of 5 bar, expanding its inner volume. The final shape can be achieved by igniting an inflammable gas injected into the container, generating a higher blowing pressure, or by injecting an additional gas with a higher blowing pressure of approximately 40 bar after pre-blowing. The invention aims to improve known blow forming methods by producing a barrier layer impervious to gases and aromatic substances on the inner side of the container without the need for large machines. A precursor gas is mixed with the inflammable gas, ignited, and a coating is formed on the inner surface of the container through combustion.
