Abstract:
The present disclosure describes bottle closure assemblies which are made at least in part with a polyethylene composition having good flow properties and good resistance to environmentally induced stress cracking. The bottle closure assembly includes a cap portion, an elongated tether portion, and a retaining means portion. The retaining means portions engages a bottle neck or an upper portion of a bottle. The elongated tether portion connects at least one point on the cap portion to at least one point on the retaining means portion so as to prevent loss of the cap portion from a bottle.

Claim (Index 1):
A bottle closure assembly comprising:\n a cap portion, a tether portion, and a retaining means portion, the cap portion being molded to reversibly engage and cover a bottle opening, the retaining means portion being molded to irreversibly engage a bottle neck or an upper portion of a bottle, and where the tether portion connects at least one point on the cap portion to at least one point on the retaining means portion, wherein the cap portion, optionally the tether portion, and optionally the retaining means portion are made from a polyethylene composition comprising:\n (1) 10 to 70 wt. % of a first ethylene copolymer having a melt index I 2 , of less than 1.0 g/10 min; and a density of from 0.920 to 0.960 g/cm 3 ; and \n (2) 90 to 30 wt. % of a second ethylene copolymer or an ethylene homopolymer; the second ethylene copolymer or the ethylene homopolymer having a melt index I 2 , of at least 20 g/10 min; and a density higher than the density of the first ethylene copolymer, but less than 0.970 g/cm 3 ;\n wherein the ratio (SCB1/SCB2) of the number of short chain branches per thousand carbon atoms in the first ethylene copolymer (SCB1) to the number of short chain branches per thousand carbon atoms in the second ethylene copolymer (SCB2) is greater than 0.5.
