A clarified random co-polymer plastic bottle as clear as PET Barrier Technologies in Market Multilayers e.g. EVOH, MXDG Requires new production lines Complicated / difficult to run Cost of barrier layer Recycling problematic Generally requires binding layers (i.e. min 5 layers) Special very expensive molds and machines Barrier not high enough, degrades with humidity Inside coatings e.g. SIO2, diamond-like carbon, amorphous Carbon Lowspeeds High costs (vacuum) Cracking & delamination Recycling Outside coatings e.g. Epoxy-arrine spray coating Matrix oxygen Recycling Materials e.g. PEN (polyethylene raphthalate) Expensive Barrier still not high enough (e.g. PEN 5xPET barrier) FDA Compliance The polymeric substances Enviroclear Liquibarrier and Enviroclear Liquicoat are in compliance with the Code of Federal Regulations (FDA) title 21 CFR 175.300 (resinous and polymeric coatings). This paragraph regulates that these resinous and polymeric coatings may be safely used as the food-contact surface of articles intended for use in producing, manufacturing, packing, processing, preparing, treating, packaging, transporting, or holding food.
