Abstract
A package system suitable for sterilizing cyanoacrylate compositions and providing the sterile cyanoacrylate compositions a shelf life of at least 24 months, wherein the package system comprises: an ampoule comprising a chamber comprising a cyanoacrylate monomer, wherein the chamber is defined by an opening and sidewalls, wherein the ampoule comprises a material comprising a cyclic olefin copolymer; a multilayer foil seal sealing the opening of the ampoule; and a secondary package housing the ampoule.
Claims8
A package system suitable for sterilizing cyanoacrylate compositions, wherein the package system comprises:
- a container comprising
- a chamber containing a cyanoacrylate monomer, wherein the chamber is defined by an opening and sidewalls, wherein the container comprises a material comprising a first cyclic olefin copolymer;
- a multilayer foil seal sealing the opening of the container, the multilayer foil seal comprising
- an inner-most layer consisting of
- a second cyclic olefin copolymer consisting of a first unsaturated cyclic monomer and a first unsaturated linear monomer,
- wherein the first unsaturated cyclic monomer is selected from the group consisting of norbornene, and
- wherein the first unsaturated linear monomer is selected from the group consisting of ethylene, propylene, and tetracyclododecene,
- an outer layer, and
- at least one middle layer comprising aluminum;
- and
- a secondary package housing the container;
- wherein the package system is sterilized by radiation, and the cyanoacrylate monomer contained in the package system does not cure upon radiation exposure and for at least 24 months of shelf storage thereafter.
