Embodiment 1

[0142] Example 1. Foamy skin-core product according to the invention versus non-stratified bubbles of the prior art microwave process foam product

[0143] figure 1 (A) is shown and by using according to especially as in US 6,180,161 figure 1 Compared with the porous product prepared by the microwave heating step of the starch composition prepared by the method in (B), as listed in Example 2 (below), the cross-section of the partially porous injection molded product produced according to the present invention Details.

Embodiment 2

[0144] Example 2. Foamed skin-core product molded from one material

[0145] Injection molding tests were performed using a typical (Paragon) material composition A. To this composition was added 1% of PlastronFoam F01-17 from Plastron SAS, France by dry blending.

[0146] Injection molding takes place via an injection unit of a sandwich module. The temperature distribution along the barrel of the injection molding machine is: feed zone: 50°C; zone 2: 50°C; zone 3: 60°C; zone 4: 80°C; zone 5: 100°C; zone 6: 120°C; zone 7 : 130°C; Zone 8: 130°C. The temperature of the sandwich hot runner module is 130°C. The temperature of the fixed mold half (including the cold runner) is 35°C, and the temperature of the movable mold half is 25°C. The anti-punch distance (applied during the first part of the cooling phase) is a maximum of 2 mm. The total cycle time is about 50 seconds.

[0147] The resulting product may be characterized as a skin-core product, wherein the skin (thickne...

Embodiment 3

[0150] Example 3. Sandwich molding using 2 different materials to create a foamy skin-core product

[0151] Sandwich injection molding tests were performed using typical material composition A (skin material) and typical material composition B (core material). 1% of PlastronFoam F01-17 from Plastron SAS, France was added to the core material by dry blending.

[0152]The injection molding takes place via the two injection units of the sandwich module. The temperature distribution along the two barrels of the injection molding machine is: feed zone: 50°C; zone 2: 50°C; zone 3: 60°C; zone 4: 80°C; zone 5: 100°C; zone 6: 120°C; Zone 7: 130°C; Zone 8: 130°C. The temperature of the sandwich hot runner module is 130°C. The temperature of the fixed mold half (including the cold runner) is 35°C, and the temperature of the movable mold half is 25°C.

[0153] The first composition A is injected into the mold. After 40% of the total volume had been injected into the mold, the feeds...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a pet chew product comprising a skin of a first thermoplastic starch-based material enveloping a core of a second thermoplastic starch-based material, wherein the first and second thermoplastic starch-based materials may be the same or different, the core having a density or hardness lower than the skin, wherein the pet chew product is produced under constrained cooling conditions.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention is in the field of starch-based pet chew compositions effective for removing plaque from animal teeth. The present invention relates to a method for producing a pet chew having said function, and to a pet chew obtainable by said method. Background technique [0002] Oral hygiene problems are very common among household pets. The main source of these problems is dental plaque. This invisible film of bacteria, proteins and polysaccharides attaches to the tooth surface. Bacteria in plaque can lead to dental caries and inflammation of the gums (gingivitis), and calculus, being mineralized plaque that is practically impossible to remove, is a suitable substrate for more bacterial growth and therefore more plaque. If left untreated, plaque and calculus can cause pets to experience malodor, periodontal disease, gum pockets, and even bone loss. [0003] In order to prevent dental and periodontal disease in small animals such as dogs, ...
