Patent ID: 8623250

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a multilayer object made from synthetic resin by compression moulding a dose of molten multilayer resin comprising a single continuous functional layer, and each layer of the dose is in a molten state at the time of compression, wherein the method comprises: co-extruding the resins through a die to yield an extrudate, cutting the extrudate periodically in order to obtain a dose in a molten state, depositing the dose in the molten state in a cavity of a mould for compression moulding, wherein the method has an extrusion direction and the functional layer is parallel to the extrusion direction before compression moulding, compressing the dose along a compression axis that intersects the extrusion direction, so as to introduce asymmetry into the flow of the multilayers with respect to the compression axis, thereby resulting in an object having an asymmetric distribution of the multilayers with a single continuous functional layer, and wherein the method results in a packaging component selected from the group consisting of a stopper, cup, or cap.
