20160039577 | CLOSURE FOR A PRODUCT-RETAINING CONTAINER - The disclosure relates to a cylindrical closure for a product-retaining container constructed for being inserted and securely retained in a portal-forming neck of said container, said closure comprising at least one thermoplastic polymer and at least one natural organic filler wherein the lateral surface of said closure has a hardness of 40 to 90 Shore A. Such closures are particularly suitable for sealingly closing wine bottles. | 02-11-2016 |
20140299570 | CLOSURE FOR A PRODUCT-RETAINING CONTAINER - The disclosure relates to a synthetic closure for a product-retaining container constructed for being inserted and securely retained in a portal-forming neck of said container, said closure comprising at least a core member comprising at least one cycloolefin-based copolymer. | 10-09-2014 |
20140231430 | CLOSURE FOR A PRODUCT-RETAINING CONTAINER - The disclosure relates to a closure for a container, such as, for example, a wine bottle. In one embodiment, the closure includes an oxidant releasing agent that is adapted to release oxygen into an interior portion of the container according to a predefined desired profile. In another embodiment, the closure comprises a gas containing reservoir, a membrane and a barrier layer, said membrane allowing an at least partial exchange of gas between the inside of said reservoir and the inside of said container, and said barrier layer at least partially preventing exchange of gas between the outside of said closure and the inside of said reservoir. | 08-21-2014 |
20140141120 | ELECTROANALYTICAL METHOD FOR PREDICTING THE OXIDABILITY OF A WINE OR A GRAPE MUST - An electroanalytical method for predicting the oxidability of a wine or a grape must is disclosed. This example includes recording an electrochemical signal of a sample of the wine or grape must; comparing an electrochemical signature of the electrochemical signal obtained in a) with reference curves of voltammograms obtained from wines or grape musts with known oxidability; and predicting the oxidability of the sample tested based on the comparison. Markers for predicting the oxidability of a wine or a grape must and the use of electrochemistry for predicting the oxidability of a wine or a grape must are also disclosed. A method for predicting the optimal total oxygen supply for storing a wine or a grape must in a container; a method for wine maturation and/or ageing and; a method for selecting an optimal closure for storing a wine or a grape must in a container are also disclosed. | 05-22-2014 |
20130118924 | CLOSURES FOR A PRODUCT RETAINING CONTAINER AND RELATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS - Container closures wherein at least one void comprised in the closure is at least partially filled with a gas or gaseous mixture which by composition or pressure is different from air are disclosed. The oxygen content of said gas can be lower than the oxygen content of air. Through use of such closures for sealing closed containers, the amount of air and therefore oxygen that enters the closed container through closure desorption can be effectively controlled, changed, or even largely eliminated. | 05-16-2013 |
20120228164 | CLOSURE FOR A PRODUCT RETAINING CONTAINER - The disclosure relates to a closure for a container, such as, for example, a wine bottle. In one embodiment, the closure includes an oxidant releasing agent that is adapted to release oxygen into an interior portion of the container according to a predefined desired profile. In another embodiment, the closure comprises a gas containing reservoir, a membrane and a barrier layer, said membrane allowing an at least partial exchange of gas between the inside of said reservoir and the inside of said container, and said barrier layer at least partially preventing exchange of gas between the outside of said closure and the inside of said reservoir. | 09-13-2012 |
20110180442 | CLOSURE FOR A PRODUCT RETAINING CONTAINER - A closure for a product retaining container constructed for being inserted and securely retained in a portal forming neck of the container has a substantially cylindrical shape and substantially flat terminating surfaces forming the opposed ends of said closure, wherein at least one of said terminating surfaces is at least partially covered by a decorative layer. Indicia may be applied on at least one of the two substantially flat terminating surfaces forming the opposed ends of a closure by means of hot stamping. | 07-28-2011 |
20110147336 | CLOSURE/STOPPER WITH MULTI-LAYER FILM AFFIXED THERETO - By securely affixing or bonding a multi-layer film to the terminating end of a closure/stopper, with the multi-layer film being constructed for promoting the transfer of all of the desirable gases, chemicals, and/or compounds while preventing the transfer of undesirable gases, chemicals, and/or compounds, a unique, closure or stopper having a sealed and/or barrier bearing terminating end is achieved. In this way, wine sealed in the wine bottle by the closure/stopper of the present invention is assured of possessing a long storage life, while also having the flavor, bouquet, taste, and quality desired for the wine fully maintained. | 06-23-2011 |
