Closures for liquid product containers |
| abstract |
A bung for closing a wine bottle in the manner of a cork is formed in a conventional injection-moulding machine from ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) with the addition of sodium metabisulphite and sodium bicarbonate. The sodium metabisulphite, which is in stoichiometric excess in relation to the sodium bicarbonate, decomposes to liberate sulphur dioxide. The sodium bicarbonate decomposes to liberate water and carbon dioxide. The bung as moulded accordingly has a foamed core with a liquid-impervious skin. It contains sulphur dioxide, and water enabling the sulphur dioxide to act as an oxygen scavenger when the bung is in use in a wine bottle. The bung therefore provides the bottle with a long shelf life, with no noticeable tainting of the wine. |
