A container closure comprising a container closure shell and a resin liner applied to the inner surface side of the shell, wherein the resin liner is constituted by an upper layer portion which is composed of a resin composition containing such additives as disoxidation agent, drying agent, deodorant, antibacterial agent and thermo color agent and which forms a panel portion on the inside of the hermetically sealing portion, a lower layer portion which is composed of a thermoplastic resin having cushioning property and elasticity and which is interposed between the upper layer portion and the top surface of the shell to join them together, and a hermetically sealing portion which is formed on the outer peripheral side of the panel portion integrally with the lower layer portion. There is further provided a container closure with liner of the function separation type which is free from defects inherent in the conventional function addition-type container closures with liner, and which permits additional functions to be exhibited to a high degree without impairing hermetically sealing property, and a method of producing the same. Moreover, there is provided a method of producing the container closure with liner of the function separation type maintaining excellent produceability and high quality.
A container closure with a liner comprising a container closure shell and a liner of resin applied to an inner surface of said shell, wherein the liner of resin comprises (i) an upper layer portion which forms a panel, (ii) a lower layer portion which is interposed between said upper layer portion and the shell to join them together and (iii) an outer peripheral portion which forms a hermetically sealing portion, said upper layer portion (i) comprises a resin composition (A) containing additives selected from the group consisting of an oxygen absorbing agent, a drying agent, a deodorant, an antibacterial agent and a thermal color agent, and said lower layer portion (ii) and said outer peripheral portion (iii) are integrally formed and comprise a thermoplastic resin (B) with a cushioning property and elasticity and being free of said additives, said liner being formed by press-molding a molten mass of resin (B) and placing the panel of resin composition (A) onto the molten mass in the container closure shell.
