Represented and described are a device for the sterilizing of parallelepiped cardboard/plastic composite packing in an autoclave, wherein the packings consisting of product and packing are subjected to a heat treatment at a specific temperature over a specific period, wherein the product consists of a fluid and lump-like fractions and wherein provision is made in the interior of the autoclave for devices for the rotational drive of the packings about an axis of rotation, as well as a parallelepiped cardboard/plastic composite packing for use in such a device.In order to achieve a satisfactory sterilization of a large number of packings, without the packings becoming deformed or their print image damaged, provision is made for a plurality of packings (P) arranged in parallel rows densely adjacent to one another to be arranged on carrier bases, and for a plurality of carrier bases loaded with packings (P) to be arranged above one another and fixed in their mutual position. With the packing used with this, the cardboard is rendered hydrophobic by means of sizing in order to reduce the penetration of water, and the quantity of sizing used lies between 1 and 4 kg/t of dry fibre material.所揭述者是一種用於在一滅菌蒸壓鍋中使六面體形紙板/塑膠複合包裝物無菌化的裝置,其中由產品和包裝物組成的封包會被以一特定的溫度熱處理一特定週期,其中該產品係由一流體與團塊狀部份所組成,且在該蒸壓鍋的內部設有用以繞一轉軸來旋轉驅動該等封包的裝置;以及可供使用於此一裝置中的平行六面體形紙板/塑膠複合包裝物。為能達到大量封包之令人滿意的無菌化,而不會使該等封包變形或令其印刷圖像受損,乃提供將多數個排列成互相緊鄰之平行排的封包等排列在載座上,並使多數個載有封包的載座被逐一堆疊排列且固定在它們的相對位置。至於使用於此的包裝物,該紙板係利用上膠形成斥水性的俾能減少水分的滲透,且所用的上膠量係在1至4kg/t之間的乾纖維材料。
