Frosted container
First Claim
1. A plastic container having a frosted appearance comprising at least an outer layer which is formed of a blend comprising (A) and ethylene-propylene block copolymer containing 3 to 10% by weight of ethylene and having a melt flow rate of 0.8 to 10 g/10 min. and (B) polyethylene having a density of 0.925 to 0.970 g/cm3, at a weight ratio (a):
- (B) of 9;
1 to 5;

Abstract
At least an outer layer of a plastic container is formed of a blend including an ethylene-propylene block copolymer containing 3 to 10% by weight, particularly 5 to 9% by weight of ethylene and a melt flow rate of 0.8 to 10 g/10 min. and a polyethylene having a given density at a weight ratio of 9:1 to 5:5. A plastic container made of an olefin resin having a frosted or matted appearance can be manufactured with excellent moldability without requiring any special working such as sand blasting the cavity surface of a mold. The container will gives an impression of shade off, depth and high grade.
