Research evidences in damage and fracture mechanics [Lemaitre, 1996; Bridgman, 1964] reveal that steel materials become more brittle with the increasing triaxial tension, measured often by the stress triaxiality ratio, σm/σseq, where σm refers to the mean stress while σseq denotes the effective stress.

The container molding design is a course including the requirements on functions, materials, processes and aesthetics.
The packaging container design is the application of materials and processes.
Its appearance, decided by different materials and structure, can lead to some different identification at the aspect of touch and vision.
Most container design must demand over two materials for the processes or design, so the material properties and mutual configuration would strengthen texture effect in container molding.
