A blow molded article obtained by blow molding of a preform made via parallel flow coinjection, having a wall formed by 3 layers in at least a region wherein the outside layer is transparent and the inner layer comprises an effect pigment visible through the transparent layer. Articles according to the invention have an improved gloss, low haze and higher resistance to delamination than previous articles. The invention relates also to preforms for making articles as described and to methods for making preforms and articles.

Blow molded article with visual effects

A blow molded article, a method of making a blow molded article and a method of making a preform each having at least one layer comprising a thermoplastic resin and between 0.1% and 20% of an additive having a viscosity of greater than 1,000,000 cst. There is a refractive index difference of at least 0.04 between the additive and the thermoplastic resin. The high viscosity of the additive ensures even distribution of the additive within the thermoplastic resin in discrete domains, while additionally providing for a complex end look balancing opacity, gloss and depth.

Article with visual effects

A blow molded multilayer article with a hollow body defined by a wall with an inner surface and an outer surface. The outer surface has an axial color gradient and/or a gloss gradient. The wall has multiple layers and at least one layer contains an effect pigment and/or an opacifying pigment.

A blow molded multilayer article having a hollow body defined by a wall comprising at least three layers. The wall has a first Layer A comprising an outer surface of the wall, a second Layer A comprising the inner surface of the wall and a Layer B between the first and second Layer As. The B layer can contain an effect pigment and/or an opacifying pigment and the Layer As can be transparent. The wall contains a deboss element.

Blow molded article with debossing

A blow molded monolayer article. The article has a hollow body defined by a wall. The wall has one or more regions comprising a first composition and one or more regions formed by a second composition.

The present invention is directed to a method for reducing monomer loss during curing of a high internal phase emulsion. The method has the steps of: forming a water-in-oil emulsion, curing the monomer component in the emulsion in a saturated steam environment, and forming a saturated polymeric foam material. The water-in-oil emulsion has an aqueous phase and an oil phase comprising a monomer component.

A flowable nondigestible oil composition having a Consistency in a temperature range of 20&#xb0; C. to 40&#xb0; C. of less than about 600 P.sec. The flowable nondigestible oil contains a liquid polyol polyester having a complete melt point less than 37&#xb0; C., and a solid polyol polyester having a complete melt point of at least about 37&#xb0; C., wherein the solid polyol polyester contains a solid saturated polyol polyester capable of forming crystallized spherulites. The flowable nondigestible oil is made by a process which includes the steps of melting completely the nondigestible oil, reducing the temperature of the melted nondigestible oil to a first crystallization temperature less than the onset crystallization temperature of the solid saturated polyol polyester, holding the nondigestible oil at the first crystallization temperature for a time sufficient to crystallize a portion of the solid saturated polyol polyester into crystallized spherulites, further reducing the temperature to an ambient crystallization temperature, and holding the polyol polyester composition for a time sufficient to crystallize the remaining portion of the solid polyol fatty acid polyester. The process is accompanied by shearing of the composition during the crystallization of the remaining portion of the solid polyol fatty acid polyester. The process is generally completed within 5 hours, usually within about 2 hours.
