Abstract

The technical problem of this invention is to eliminate the need to use deformable panel walls and to find the body of a shape that no false deformation, such as dented deformation, takes place in a portion of the body due to the hot filling of the contents or the reduced pressure created by the treatment of retort-packed foods. The object of this invention is to obtain a bottle that can inhibit the deformation caused by reduced pressure, has a high buckling strength, and is good in outer appearance. As the solution, there is provided a biaxially drawn, blow-molded bottle made of a synthetic resin, in which the surface rigidity of the wall of body is set in such a manner that a part of the body wall cannot become dented inward under a reduced inner pressure of at least 350 mmHg (46.7 kPa).
