Abstract

The present invention relates to an improvement of a nozzle cap for a composite container containing a low-viscosity liquid such as a humidity-curing type adhesive of .alpha.-cyanoacrylate-based adhesive, solvent-volatile type adhesive, various chemicals, food, and ink. A container is provided with a nozzle cap which includes a nozzle connected to a container body and a cap threadably mounted to the nozzle for closing a discharge port of the nozzle. A head of the cap is provided with a column element projecting inwardly for closing the nozzle and a head of the column element is provided with a concave hole into which the tip of the nozzle is removably inserted or fitted. A superior, unique effect is exhibited such that the closure of the nozzle is easily and completely performed, and adhesive or the like adhering to the tip of the nozzle does not spread around and cure, thereby preventing formation of an umbrella- or mushroom-shaped solid material.
