3186 results about "Food packaging" patented technology

Food packaging is packaging for food. A package provides protection, tampering resistance, and special physical, chemical, or biological needs. It may bear a nutrition facts label and other information about food being offered for sale.

Apparatus for producing metal coated polymers

A method of improving the breakdown strength of polymer multi-layer (PML) capacitors is provided and of providing a window in food packaging is provided. The method comprises patterning the aluminum coating, either by selective removal of deposited aluminum or by preventing deposition of the aluminum on selected areas of the underlying polymer film. Apparatus is also provided for patterning metal deposition on polymer films comprising masking for defining regions in which metal is deposited. The apparatus comprises: (a) a rotating drum; (b) a monomer evaporator for depositing a monomer film on the rotating drum; (c) a radiation curing element for curing the monomer film to form a cross-linked polymer film; and (d) a resistive evaporator for depositing a metal film on the cross-linked polymer film. The foregoing elements are enclosed in a vacuum chamber. The masking comprising one of the following: (e1) a web mask provided with openings for depositing the metal film therethrough, the web mask including a portion adapted for positioning between the resistive evaporator for depositing the metal film on the cross-linked polymer film and the rotating drum; or (e2) a rotating element for transferring liquid from a source to the rotating drum, the rotating element adapted to transfer the liquid to the rotating drum after the monomer evaporator for depositing the polymer film and before the resistive evaporator for depositing the metal film.

Curable liquids and inks for toys and food packaging applications

A free radical curable liquid for inkjet printing of food packaging materials includes no initiator or otherwise one or more initiators selected from the group consisting of non-polymeric di- or multifunctional initiators, oligomeric initiators, polymeric initiators, and polymerizable initiators; and a polymerizable composition of the liquid consists essentially of: a) 25-100 wt % of one or more polymerizable compounds A having at least one acrylate group G1 and at least one second ethylenically unsaturated polymerizable functional group G2 selected from the group consisting of a vinlyether group, an allylether group, and a allylester group; b) 0-55 wt % of one or more polymerizable compounds B selected from the group consisting of monofunctional acrylates and difunctional acrylates; and c) 0-55 wt % of one or more polymerizable compounds C selected from the group consisting of trifunctional acrylates, tetrafunctional acrylates, pentafunctional acrylates and hexafunctional acrylates. If the weight percentage of compounds B>24 wt %, then the weight percentage of compounds C>1 wt %, and all weight percentages of A, B, and C are based upon the total weight of the polymerizable composition. At least one polymerizable compound B or C is present in the polymerizable composition if the free radical curable liquid contains no initiator.

InactiveUS20090253805A1Improve gas barrierExcellent substrate barrier resistanceOrganic chemistryPaper coatingThiolPolymer substrate
The present invention provides modified multifunctional thiol-ene monomers wherein one or more thiols are reacted with a Michael addition reactive double bond compound. The present invention further discloses photocurable thiol-ene formulations comprising thiol-ene monomers including the modified multifunctional thiols. The present invention further discloses photocurable thiol-ene formulations comprising thiol-ene monomers and Michael addition reactive double bond molecules and a Michael catalyst. The formulations of the present invention can be photocured to make films or coatings. In a further disclosure, the formulations, including those comprised of unmodified multifunctional thiols and multifunctional enes, are photocured to form films applied to non-flexible or flexible polymer or non-polymer substrates suitable for food packaging, electronic products, optical products and other applications and free-standing films. The present invention further discloses photocurable thiol-ene formulations comprising thiol-ene monomers and Michael addition reactive double bond molecules and a Michael catalyst. These formulations are disclosed to form free-standing films and coatings on substrates when applied to flexible substrates. Such materials are suitable for use in the packaging of food products and other products which are to be maintained in a hermetically sealed relationship to the atmosphere.

Food package and method and device for extrusion of food

Food package according to the present invention comprises a container made of soft material and having a trunk substantially shaped in a cylinder, a truncated cone or an inverted truncated cone, and a bottom formed in its substantially central zone with a push-out aperture provided with a removable seal, and filled with viscous or semisolid food wherein the container has a sealed upper opening. Push-out method for food from such food package comprises steps as follow: providing a push-out device comprising a container receiving member having a substantially cylindrical trunk member and a bottom member provided in its central zone with a through-hole, and a depressing member adapted to be guided into the cylindrical trunk member from above; setting the food package according to claim 1 in the container receiving member; compressing the food package by the depressing member from above toward the bottom while the container made of soft material is controllably guided along the inner surface of the cylindrical trunk member or a peripheral surface of the through-hole of the bottom member so that the container may be prevented from shifting sideways until the container is flattened; and thereby forcing out the content food through the push-out aperture and the through-hole of the bottom of the container made of soft material.
