Components for aerosol dispenser and aerosol dispenser made therewith

An aerosol dispenser having a longitudinal axis and comprising:

• an outer container, said outer container comprising an opening at one end thereof;
• a neck subjacent said opening and having an upper neck portion and a lower neck portion, said upper neck portion having an upper neck crystallization and said lower neck portion having a lower neck crystallization, said upper neck crystallization being at least 10 percent less than said lower neck crystallization and wherein said lower neck portion crystallinity is from about 15 to about 25 percent;
• a shoulder juxtaposed with said neck, and extending radially outward therefrom;
• a sidewall juxtaposed with said shoulder;
• a base joined to said sidewall;
• a neck crystallized region, said crystallized region being disposed on said lower neck portion, wherein said neck crystallized region has a neck crystallized percentage, and said sidewall has a sidewall crystallized percentage, said neck crystallized percentage being in a range of from about 0.4 to about 1.6 times said sidewall crystallized percentage;
• and said aerosol dispenser comprising a valve assembly for selectively dispensing contents of said aerosol dispenser.

An aerosol dispenser having a longitudinal axis and comprising:

• an outer container, said outer container having a neck having an opening at one end thereof, said neck having an upper neck portion proximate said opening and a lower neck portion juxtaposed with said upper neck portion;
• a shoulder juxtaposed with said neck, and extending radially outward therefrom;
• a body having a sidewall juxtaposed with said shoulder;
• a base joined to said sidewall;
• said lower neck portion comprising a crystallized region, said crystallized region having a crystallization from 12 to 18 percent, wherein both of said upper neck portion and said lower neck portion have a respective crystallinity, the ratio of said crystallinity of said upper neck portion to the crystallinity of said lower neck portion being at least about 2.5:1;
• and
• a valve assembly for selectively dispensing contents of said aerosol dispenser.
