The double blow molding process comprises a primary blow molding step of biaxially drawing and blow molding the preform into a primary intermediate product, a step of heating the primary intermediate product to shrink-mold it into the secondary intermediate product, and a secondary blow molding step of molding the secondary intermediate product into a bottle. This double blow molding process is characterized in that, just before the secondary blow molding step, the secondary intermediate product on standby is maintained at a temperature at least 40&#xb0; C. or 50&#xb0; C. higher than the mold temperature used in said secondary blow molding step. From such a temperature, it is possible to determine the double blow molding conditions, which can correspond to the levels of heat resistance required for the bottles, and to provide, with high productivity, the bottles having necessary levels of heat resistance.

Biaxial orientation blow molding process

A process for producing a hollow vessel having a frosted glass-like surface which comprises molding a crystalline thermoplastic polyester copolymer comprising units of ethylene terephthalate as the main component into a transparent parison, crystallizing at least the surface layer portion of the parison and then subjecting it to blow molding.

Process for producing a hollow vessel having a frosted glass-like surface

One of the main objectives of the present invention is to provide a frosted bottle made of an unsaturated polyester, and another object thereof is to provide a method of making such the frosted bottle. The bottle according to the present invention is made from a cylindrical material prepared by injection moulding and having a bottom wall and a transparent upper portion in the vicinity of the opening thereof. The peripheral outer surface of the cylindrical material is heated to allow the outer surface for becoming milky white, and then put into a mould for blow mounding to inflate the trunk and bottom walls other than the neck portion thereby for forming a bottle. The bottles according to the present invention which are not particularly colored are, therefore, characterized by having walls which are composed of inner transparent portions and opaque outer pheripheral portions of milky white color, when viewed in cross sections. This is a division of application Ser. No. 779,473, filed Mar. 21, 1977.
