Definitions
- a SUBSTANTIALLY LINEAR POLYETHYLENE SEALING LINER FOR A CLOSURE This invention relates to a closure for a container having a sealing liner. More particularly, this invention relates to a composition for a sealing liner for a closure.
- Many liquid products are packaged in containers which have openings that must be sealed with some type of closure.
- a bottle that contains a carbonated beverage typically has a removable closure that must provide the necessary sealing of the pressurized contents of the bottle.
- metal closures are well known in the art, molded plastic closures have met with widespread commercial success in the marketplace.
- sealing liner in an outer closure cup or shell of the closure.
- Sealing liners for closures are known to those skilled in the art, and are typically formed of materials which are less rigid (i.e., more compliant) than the material from which the outer cup is made.
- the sealing liner forms a seal between the container and the outer closure cup.
- the seal that is formed by the closure prevents the contents of the container, including pressurized gas, from spilling or being released from the container.
- the closure prevents contamination of the contents of the container.
- a satisfactory sealing liner must provide for an acceptable removal torque of the closure for ease of removal by consumers and satisfactory performance when the sealed container is subjected to various environmental stresses such as temperature, pressure and humidity changes. The sealed container must also be able to withstand mechanical shock.
- a suitable liner for use in connection with a closure must not scuff or string when the closure is applied to or removed from the container. If scuffing or stringing occurs, the closure may not seal properly or particles of liner material may undesirably be introduced into the contents of the container.
- the present invention provides a sealing liner for a closure that comprises substantially linear polyethylene, and an ionomer or a copolymer of ethylene and acrylic acid.
- the present invention also provides a closure comprising a top wall having an interior surface and an exterior surface, a peripheral skirt disposed about said top wall and circumscribing the interior surface, means on the skirt for attaching the closure to a container, and a sealing liner disposed on the interior surface of the top wall, the sealing liner comprising substantially linear polyethylene and an ionomer.
- a lubricant and colorant are additionally incorporated into the liner composition.
- the figure is a view in cross-section of a closure having a sealing liner.
- the present invention provides a sealing liner for closures that is scuff and string resistant.
- the liners comprise substantially linear polyethylene, and an ionomer or a copolymer of ethylene and acrylic acid.
- the closure of the present invention may be any closure that is known in the art in which the use of a liner is desirable, including plastic or metal closures, such as an aluminum closure.
- the closure is a plastic closure.
- the container for which the closure is designed to seal can also be selected from containers known to those skilled in the art, such as glass or plastic containers.
- the closure includes an outer plastic cup or shell which contains a sealing liner which may be compression molded in situ on the interior of the shell, or the liner may be introduced into the shell by other means known to those skilled in the art.
- a sealing liner which may be compression molded in situ on the interior of the shell, or the liner may be introduced into the shell by other means known to those skilled in the art.
- a typical closure having a sealing liner is shown in Figure 1.
- the closure 10 includes an outer closure cup 12 having a top wall 14, the top wall having an interior surface 14a and an exterior surface 14b.
- a depending annular peripheral skirt 16 is disposed about the top wall and circumscribes the interior surface of the top wall.
- the peripheral skirt typically contains a means for attaching the closure to the container. Such means may include, but are not limited to, threads 18, so that the closure may be screwed onto the container. In general, the closure may be removed and replaced on the container as desired.
- a sealing liner 20 of the present invention is disposed on the interior surface of the top wall for sealing engagement with the associated container.
- Vent groves 22 facilitate release of gas pressure from within the container attendant to closure removal, with the closure including a tamper band 24 for providing evidence of opening.

- suitable colorants include, but are not limited to, thaloblue, which may be obtained from Quantum Chemical Corporation.
- Typical liners for closures are round disks and can have various diameters. In general, liners have a diameter in the range of about 25 mm to about 50 mm, with 28, 38 and 43 mm being preferred.
- a liner may vary.
- a liner may have a uniform thickness or a liner may have different thicknesses at different portions of the liner.
- some liners are thicker at the edge portion of the liner than at the central portion of the liner.
- a preferred thickness at the central portion of the liner is about .011 in.
- stringing and scuffing are the result of the physical contact, i.e., rubbing, between the liner and the seal area of the container finish during closure or opening of the container.
- small fragments of the liner material which is softer than the container finish, may be partially or completely severed or abraded from the bulk liner material.
- These fragments of liner material are called either scuffs or strings depending on their shape.
- a string is a long, slender strand of liner material having a larger length than diameter, and a scuff is a balled-up or abraded piece of liner material, which is approximately symmetrical or globular.
- test and control closures are lined and molded on the same molding and lining machine.
- the control closures are made immediately before the test closures.
- the internal diameter of the liners must be measured before the string test is performed, and the internal diameters must be statistically the same for both the control and the test closures.
- the closures are applied to empty PET [poly(ethylene terephthalate)] finishes, using, for example, an ALCOA 201 capping machine at 12 in lbf static torque, 50 lbf topload and 340 rpm spindle speed.
- the bottle finish is dipped into water. Then a closure is applied to the bottle finish by hand and hand-tightened to where the closure is slightly tight. (The bottle does not need to be filled with a liquid.) The closure is then firmly seated using a capper. The closure is then removed and visually inspected for stringing and/or scuffing.
- Liner Composition A liner composition was made by combining 10% by weight of the liner composition ionomer with 90% by weight of the liner composition substantially linear polyethylene.
- the ionomer was Surlyn 1702 from Dupont, which is a zinc salt of an ethylene and methacrylic acid copolymer.
- the substantially linear polyethylene was a copolymer of ethylene and 1- octene, which can be obtained from The Dow Chemical Company of Midland, MI, sold under the name AFFINITY SM-1300, which has a weight average molecular weight of about 41,700, a melt index of about 30 g/10 min., and a density of about 0.902 g/cm .
- Lubricant Kemmamide-E ®
- colorant Thixaloblue
- the resultant liner composition was subjected to scuff and string testing and showed no scuffing and stringing.
- the control, Alphaseal 240 6C which is a commercially available liner composition comprising an ethylene and vinyl acetate copolymer that can be obtained from Alpha Chemical of Massachusetts, showed about 30% stringing or scuffing.
