NEW PLASTIC BOTTLE
SOLVES LIQUID MIGRATION PROBLEMS
BLOW-MOLDED OF
RIGID GEON If you can't use plastic bottles for your product because of liquid migration prob lems, here's good news: bottles blow-molded of rigid Geon vinyl can retain the liquids that other plastics can't. The only way the con tents can escape is to pour them out. A test of a well-known household cleaner demonstrates the low, low permeability of rigid Geon. In other plastic containers tested, 40% of the contents was lost in a year—in the Geon bottle, less than 3%. Motor oil is another example. It migrated through other plastics in tests, making the surface sticky. Not with bottles of Geon — the surface was the same—'pleasant to the touch after the same period. A shampoo preparation made a bottle of another plastic lose its attractive shape in four months. No change in the Geon bottle. All because Geon vinyl resists chemicals like no other plastic material. Bottles of Geon give you better structural rigidity, a choice of vivid colors, and— to cap it all —a transparent bottle with impact resistance. It's another demonstration of how Geon improves a product. Want to hear more? Write Department Ν1-5, B.F.Goodrich Chemical Company, 3135 Euclid Avenue, Cleveland 15, Ohio.
