In a preferred embodiment, one or both of the barrel and plunger is made of a water dispersible material, preferably polyvinyl alcohol resin, and is exposed to infrared radiation to minimize surface stickiness on initial contact with moisture. In an alternative embodiment, the barrel or plunger can be coated with a polyvinyl alcohol coating prior to exposure to infrared radiation.
