Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、スチールを素材としたポリエステル樹脂被覆シームレス缶に関するものである。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
スチールやアルミニウムを素材とした金属缶・容器は、その形状からスリーピース缶とツーピース缶とに大別される。スリーピース缶は、地蓋、缶胴、天蓋から成るためスリーピース缶と呼ばれており、製胴方法が現在はシーム溶接や接着が主であることから、価格の安いスチールが使用されている。
一方、ツーピース缶は、地蓋と缶胴とが一体となったもので、それに天蓋とから成るためツーピース缶、又は、缶胴部に接合部がないことからシームレス缶とも呼ばれ、スチールとアルミニウムが使用されている。金属缶の場合、缶内面側には耐食性を確保するために塗装が施されたものが使用されているが、近年、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを積層した、ラミネート缶が開発され市場に出回っている。ラミネート缶は、金属素材に熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを被覆させたものから、缶体成形加工を行うものが主であり、特にツーピース缶を得るには高度な成形加工技術を必要とする。
【０００３】
かかる意味から、ツーピースのラミネート缶に関わる技術は、例えば特開平７−２２４１号公報、特開平７−１９５６１９号公報、特開平８−２４４７５０号公報等、数多く提案され開示されている。
ラミネート缶のメリットは、消費者側から見た場合、適用する熱可塑性樹脂フィルムにもよるが、耐内容物性、特に内容物の味、風味と言ったフレーバー性に優れている点が第一に上げられている。
一方、デメリットとしては、今度は製缶メーカー側からであるが、前述したようにツーピース缶の場合、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム被覆金属板の加工度（又は変形度合）が大きいので、成形時に缶内面側の樹脂フィルムに傷が入ったりした場合、缶内面の品質確保ができなくなるため、缶体の品質検査を厳重に行う必要があることと、製品歩留まりが現行の塗装缶に比べて劣るといった点が上げられる。特に、スチール素材を用いたツーピースラミネート缶の場合、上記の傾向が大きい。
【０００４】
こうしたラミネート缶の内面側の樹脂フィルムの皮膜欠陥は、前述したように缶成形加工時に入るものであり、この欠陥を最小限に抑えることは、品質、製品歩留まりの点から重要な技術課題であることは言うまでもない。
一方、トータル缶コストの低減化の観点から、使用金属板の板厚の低減化や缶蓋である開口容易缶蓋（イージーオープンエンド、通称ＥＯＥ）の径を小さくすることが進められている。開口容易缶蓋について述べれば、例えば、缶胴が３５０ｍｌのビール缶の場合、通称２１１と呼ばれ、缶胴内径は約６５．９ｍｍであり、当然巻締める缶蓋も２１１用のものであるが、現在この缶胴に使用する缶蓋は２０６用のものや２０４用のものとなっており、更に２０２用のものを使用する試みが進められている。
【０００５】
このことは、必然的に缶胴の開口部をより小さい径に絞る、いわゆる縮径化となり、従って缶胴に用いられている金属は勿論、その表面に被覆されている樹脂フィルムにとっても厳しい加工を受けることになる。
しかし、しごき加工を伴うツーピース缶成形加工の、特に高加工率の場合の内面側の熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの剥離や傷その他の欠陥が入り難く、また高縮径化のためのネック加工やフランジ加工で樹脂フィルムを剥離することなく、また傷その他の欠陥を入れることなく成形加工できる、適切なフィルムラミネート材が見い出されていないのが現状である。
【０００６】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は、こうした実状に鑑みなされたもので、皮膜欠陥のない高耐食性、高品質な樹脂被覆スチールシームレス缶を歩留まりよく提供することを目的とするものである。
【０００７】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は、鋼板の缶の内面側となる鋼板面には、厚みが１５〜５０μｍ、融点（Ｔｍ）が２２５〜２６０℃、極限粘度（ＩＶ）が０．６０以上、冷結晶化熱（Ｈｃ）が１２．０〜３５．０Ｊ／ｇ、密度が１．３６ｇ／ｃｍ³未満のポリエステル樹脂フィルムが、また缶の外面側となる鋼板の表面には鋼板と接する側から、融点（Ｔｍ−Ａ）が２２５℃以上で厚みが１０〜１５μｍ、１０〜３０重量％の酸化チタンの白色顔料を含有するポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ａ）と、その上層にあり、融点（Ｔｍ−Ｂ）が２３５〜２６０℃、厚みが２〜１０μｍで０〜５重量％の酸化チタンの白色顔料を含有するポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ｂ）とからなる総厚みが１２〜２０μｍの二層のポリエステル樹脂フィルムが被覆され、かつ、缶の内外面に当たる両面のポリエステル樹脂フィルムは共に非晶質化されているポリエステル樹脂フィルムのラミネート鋼板から絞り−しごき加工され、更に成形加工後の缶体を、少なくとも前記の缶内面のポリエステル樹脂フィルムの融点以上に加熱・急冷し、少なくとも缶内面に被覆されているポリエステル樹脂フィルムが非晶質化されているフィルム被覆ツーピース缶である。
なお、前記ポリエステル樹脂フィルムを被覆する前の前記鋼板の表面には、片面付着量として２０〜２０００ｍｇ／ｍ² のＮｉめっき層、その上層に片面の付着Ｃ量として１〜１００ｍｇ／ｍ² の有機樹脂を主体とする化成処理皮膜を形成しておく。
【０００８】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明のラミネートシームレス缶の実施形態について詳細に説明する。
まず、本発明における鋼板について述べる。
本発明における鋼板は、両面に片面の付着量として２０〜２０００ｍｇ／ｍ² のＮｉめっき層、その上層に片面付着Ｃ量として１〜１００ｍｇ／ｍ² の有機樹脂を主体とする化成処理皮膜層を有するものである。
Ｎｉめっきおよび化成処理前の鋼板は特に限定されるものではなく、通常製缶用鋼板として使用されているものが適用される。しかし、選定する際には缶体の強度、特にボトム耐圧強度には留意する必要があり、ビール缶においてはボトム耐圧は最大で６１８ｋＰａ以上、コーラ等の炭酸飲料缶においてはボトム耐圧６８６ｋＰａ以上でないと缶底部のドームが缶外方へ突出するといった現象が起こる。この現象を回避するには、使用鋼板の硬度やボトム形状との関係もあるが、現状では鋼板板厚が０．１５ｍｍ以下のものでは難しい。一方、鋼板板厚が０．２２ｍｍあれば使用鋼板の硬度が低くても缶底部のドームが缶外方へ突出するといった現象は起こらない。従って、鋼板の板厚は０．１５〜０．２２ｍｍとするのが好ましい。
【０００９】
次に、鋼板の表面に施されているＮｉめっきや化成処理皮膜の表面処理について述べる。
本発明において、鋼板表面にまずＮｉを付着させる理由について述べる。
本発明のような樹脂フィルムを被覆した鋼板を絞り−しごき加工して得るツーピース缶の場合、鋼板表面に形成させた金属めっき皮膜や化成処理被膜は、その加工程度に応じて破壊され、加工前の特性は減じるものである。
本発明のように樹脂フィルムを被覆させた鋼板から成形加工する場合の表面処理鋼板として、鋼板に金属クロム、その上層に水和酸化クロムを形成させる電解クロム酸処理が施されたＴＦＳ−ＣＴ（ティンフリースチールクロミウムタイプ）が良く知られているが、こうした表面処理鋼板でも例外でなく、絞り−しごき成形加工後には、表面処理皮膜の一部が破壊される。その結果、缶の開口部といった鉄が露出している箇所を起点として糸状腐食が起こる場合がある。糸状腐食が、起こった缶は当然商品としての価値は消失してしまい、問題である。
【００１０】
糸状腐食は、腐食箇所が糸状に成長することから名付けられたが、鉄やアルミニウムで起こりその腐食の成長は酸素の還元反応を駆動力としている。前述した鋼板に施される電解クロム酸処理皮膜はこの酸素の還元反応が起こり難い皮膜であるため、皮膜が健全な場合は糸状腐食は極めて起こり難い。しかし、絞り−しごき成形加工後には、表面処理皮膜の一部が破壊されるため、糸状腐食は起こってしまう。Ｎｉは糸状腐食が起こらない金属として知られており、こうした金属で鉄素地を被覆することは、鋼板の糸状腐食の防止に有効であるが、前述した電解クロム酸処理皮膜同様、絞り−しごき成形加工後には皮膜の健全性は確保されなくなるため、本発明ではＮｉめっきの付着量は、片面の付量として２０〜２０００ｍｇ／ｍ² とする。
【００１１】
下限値の２０ｍｇ／ｍ² 未満では、本発明の缶の板厚減少率の最小値である５０％でも、糸状腐食が発生するため好ましくない。また、前述した２０４（内径約５４．９ｍｍ）や２０２（内径約５２．４ｍｍ）等の高縮径ネック加工において、被覆ポリエステル樹脂フィルムが剥離する場合があり、好ましくない。
さらに、Ｎｉ付着量が下限値の２０ｍｇ／ｍ² 未満では、万が一内面側の被覆フィルムに欠陥が発生した場合、内容物によっては素地の鉄が溶解し穿孔缶となる危険性もあり好ましくない。
【００１２】
一方、上限値である２０００ｍｇ／ｍ² 超では本発明の缶の板厚減少率の最大値である７０％でも糸状腐食の発生や密着性の確保等の効果は飽和する。従って、Ｎｉ付着量は２０ｍｇ／ｍ²以上は必要で、Ｎｉの効果を十分に発揮させるには片面の付着量として１００ｍｇ／ｍ²以上のＮｉめっきを施すことが望ましい。また、Ｎｉが缶外面の鋼板面に存在することで、白さが若干向上し、缶外面となる面を被覆するポリエステル樹脂フィルムへの白色顔料の混入量や印刷・塗装時に行われる白色塗装や白インキの塗布量を低減出来るといった経済的効果もある。こうしたことを総合的に勘案すると、Ｎｉ付着量は２０〜２０００ｍｇ／ｍ²が最適な範囲であり、好ましくは１００〜２０００ｍｇ／ｍ² が好適である。鋼板へのＮｉ付着方法としては周知の電気めっきや無電解めっき方法が適用できる。
【００１３】
次に、化成処理皮膜について述べる。
本発明の鋼板は、Ｎｉめっきの上層に有機樹脂を主体とする化成処理皮膜を有するものである。有機樹脂を主体とする化成処理皮膜は、乾燥時に高分子化が起こり、Ｎｉめっき面を一様に覆うため、第一にその上層に積層させるポリエステル樹脂皮膜との密着性を強固にすることができる。第二に前述した糸状腐食の駆動力となる酸素の還元反応を抑制することができるため、糸状腐食が防止される等の優れた性能を示す。
また、有機樹脂を主体とする化成処理皮膜層は、特にポリエステル樹脂フィルムとの密着性が良好であるため、高加工度の絞り−しごき加工を受けても、密着性不十分によって起こるフィルム剥離（通称デラミ）や、激しいデラミを起因とする破胴といったことはなく、良好な缶体が得られる。
【００１４】
化成処理皮膜の付着量は、Ｃ量として例えば、（株）島津製作所製のＴＯＴＡＬＯＲＧＡＮＩＣＣＡＲＢＯＮＡＮＡＬＹＺＥＲＴＯＣ−５０００で測定した値であり、１〜１００ｍｇ／ｍ² である。
下限値である１ｍｇ／ｍ² 未満では被覆性が劣り、防食作用および密着性が共に不十分となる。また、本発明の缶の板厚減少率の最小値である５０％の場合でも成形加工後に樹脂フィルムが局部的に剥離する、いわゆるデラミが起こったり成形加工後の缶体には開口部から糸状腐食が発生し、好ましくない。しかし、有機樹脂を主体とする化成処理皮膜をＣ量として１ｍｇ／ｍ² 以上施すことにより密着性が向上し、５ｍｇ／ｍ² 以上で十分な密着性が確保される。
【００１５】
一方、上限値の１００ｍｇ／ｍ² を超えると、糸状腐食の発生はないが、本発明の缶の板厚減少率の最大値である７０％の成形加工で化成処理皮膜自身の凝集破壊と思われる密着性低下がやはり起こる場合があり、好ましくない。有機樹脂を主体とする化成処理皮膜量をＣ量として１００ｍｇ／ｍ² 以下とすることで、成形加工での密着性低下を防止することが可能となる。従って、有機樹脂を主体とする化成処理皮膜量は、Ｃ量として１〜１００ｍｇ／ｍ² の範囲であるが、工業製品としての安定生産性を考慮すると、Ｃ量として５〜５０ｍｇ／ｍ² の範囲が好ましく最適である。
【００１６】
鋼板への処理方法としては、例えばリン酸及びその塩、縮合リン酸及びその塩、リン酸ジルコニウム、リン酸チタニウムのようなリン酸系化合物や、例えばビニルエトキシシラン、アミノプロピルトリエトキシシラン等のシランカップリング剤のような有機ケイ素化合物と、例えば水溶性フェノール樹脂、水溶性アクリル樹脂のような水溶性有機樹脂等を主体とする水溶液を、前記処理液をＮｉめっき鋼板にスプレー塗布し絞りロールで付着量を調整した後、乾燥し硬化させる方法、処理液にＮｉめっき鋼板を浸漬し絞りロールで付着量を調整した後、乾燥し硬化させる方法、等が適宜適用できる。乾燥硬化方法としては熱風での乾燥、電気炉での乾燥等の方法が適用でき、温度は１５０〜２５０℃で乾燥時間は１０秒〜２分程度である。
【００１７】
次に、本発明に適用される樹脂フィルムについて説明するが、その前に樹脂フィルムラミネート金属板から絞り−しごき加工して得るラミネートツーピース缶の技術的問題点について述べる。
前述したようにツーピースのラミネート缶のデメリットとしては、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム被覆金属板の加工度（又は変形度合）が大きい場合、成形時に缶内面側の樹脂フィルムに傷が入ったりした場合、缶内面の品質確保ができなくなるため、缶体の品質検査を厳重に行う必要があることと、製品歩留まりが現行の塗装缶に比べて劣るといった点が上げられる。
【００１８】
特に、スチール素材を用いたラミネートシームレス缶の場合、上記の傾向が大きい。こうしたラミネート缶の内面側樹脂フィルムの皮膜欠陥は缶成形加工時に入り、この欠陥を最小限に抑えることは、品質、製品歩留まりの点から重要な技術課題であることは言うまでもない。
この、成形加工時に起こる樹脂フィルムの欠陥は特にしごき加工時に起こり易いことは、発明者等の研究から明らかになっており、その原因はほぼ次の二点に集約されると考えられる。
【００１９】
即ち、成形加工の際に金属の加工熱が発生し、樹脂フィルムの特性を大きく変化させるためで、熱による樹脂フィルムの特性変化は、（１）樹脂フィルムの軟化、（２）樹脂フィルムの結晶化等がある。
（１）の樹脂フィルムの軟化は、しごき加工時に樹脂フィルムがパンチに付着してしまい、パンチが抜け難くなる、いわゆる離型性不良が起こり、内面の樹脂フィルムに傷を付ける原因となる。
また、離型性不良がひどいは場合は、缶体の開口部近傍が座屈し、正規の缶体高さが得られない事態が起こる場合もある。
【００２０】
（２）の樹脂フィルムの結晶化は、しごき加工時の発熱と延伸加工により、樹脂フィルムに配向結晶化が起こり、その結果高加工に耐えられなくなり、樹脂フィルムに亀裂が入る原因となる。いずれにしても、缶の内外面フィルムの欠陥発生につながり好ましくない。このしごき加工時に起こる欠陥の二つの原因は、ポリエステル樹脂フィルムの熱的特性から見た場合、基本的には相反関係にあるため、どうバランスをとるかが技術的課題となる。
本発明では缶の内外面共、鋼板を被覆する樹脂フィルムは、熱可塑性ポリエステル樹脂フィルムが適用される。
【００２１】
本発明において、被覆する樹脂フィルムを熱可塑ポリエステル樹脂フィルムに限定した理由は、▲１▼耐熱性が良い。▲２▼缶内面用としては内容物のフレーバーが確保される、と言った、例えばポリエチレンやポリプロピレンなどのポリオレフィン系樹脂フィルムにない、缶用途に適した特性を有しているからである。缶の内外面共、被覆されたポリエステル樹脂フィルムとしては酸成分としてテレフタル酸、イソフタル酸、アジピン酸、セバシン酸等の酸成分と、エチレングリコール、ブチレングリコール等のアルコール成分からなるポリエステル樹脂で、例えばポリエチレンテレフタレート（ＰＥＴ）、ポリブチレンテレフタレート（ＰＢＴ）、ポリエチレンイソフタレート（ＰＥＩ）のようなホモポリマーや、例えばエチレンテレフタレートとエチレンイソフタレートとの共重合樹脂であるコーポリマーや、またこうしたホモポリマー同士のブレンド、ホモポリマーとコーポリマーのブレンド、コーポリマー同士のブレンドといったブレンド樹脂等から得られるフィルムが適用される。樹脂フィルムの融点（Ｔｍ）や冷結晶化熱（Ｈｃ）は、こうした酸成分とアルコール成分の選定、コーポリマーの程度、ブレンドする樹脂の選定とそのブレンド比、等適宜選定することで得ることができる。
【００２２】
まず、缶内面側に被覆されているポリエステル樹脂フィルムの厚みについて説明する。
本発明では鋼板に被覆されているポリエステル樹脂フィルム厚みとしては、１５〜５０μｍである。缶の内面に当たる鋼板面に被覆されるフィルム厚みは、缶内面の耐食性の点から限定されるものであり、１５μｍ未満では缶の成形加工後で充填する内容物にもよるが、十分な耐食性を確保するのは難しい場合がある。
一方、５０μｍを超えると、ほとんど内容物に対し耐食性は十分確保されるが、実質的に過剰品質となり、経済的でない。フィルム厚みとしては、１８〜４０μｍが品質および経済性からは好ましい範囲である。
【００２３】
また、本発明の方法を実施する際フィルム厚の選定は、後述する缶壁部の薄肉化の加工度との関係があることも選定の際の重要な要素である。
即ち、加工度が高い場合は、当然その加工度に応じてフィルムの厚みも薄くなるため、その結果として、缶内面の防食性能は低下する。従って、加工度が高い場合は予め厚手のフィルムを適用することが望ましいし、一方、加工度が低い場合はそれに応じて予め薄手のフィルムを適用することが可能となる。
本発明では缶の内面側のポリエステル樹脂フィルムは、融点（Ｔｍ）が２２５〜２６０℃の樹脂フィルムとする。
【００２４】
成形加工時には、金属の加工熱が発生し、缶体はかなりの温度となる。特にしごき加工の際に発生する金属の加工熱は、樹脂フィルムの特性を大きく変化させる。この熱による樹脂フィルムの特性変化の一つに樹脂フィルムの軟化があり、樹脂フィルムが軟化すると、しごき加工時に缶内面側の樹脂フィルムがパンチに付着してしまい、パンチが缶体から抜け難くなる、いわゆる離型性不良が起こり、内面の樹脂フィルムを傷つける原因となる。
また、離型性不良がひどい場合は、缶体の開口部近傍が座屈し、正規の缶体高さが得られない事態が起こる場合もある。
【００２５】
樹脂フィルムの融点（Ｔｍ）が２２５℃未満の場合はこの離型性不良が起こり、内面フィルムを傷付け耐食性低下に繋がり、激しい場合は成形加工ができないことがあり、好ましくない。
一方、上限値の２６０℃超では、高融点化に伴う離型性の更なる効果は期待できず飽和する。
缶内面側のポリエステル樹脂フィルムの融点（Ｔｍ）は、上記の離型性から限定したものであるが、しごき加工時の発熱量は後述する加工度との関係もあり、樹脂フィルムの融点だけで離型性の良否を決められものではないが、基本的には融点は高い方が有利であり、好ましくは２３０〜２５５℃が好適である。
【００２６】
更に、本発明においては、少なくとも缶内面側のポリエステル樹脂フィルムの極限粘度（通称ＩＶ）は０．６０以上である。極限粘度（ＩＶ）は、樹脂の平均分子量を示す指標であるが、極限粘度が０．６０未満では樹脂フィルムの衝撃強度が小さく、内容物が充填された缶体を落とした場合、その部位に衝撃が加わり材料が変形するばかりでなく、同時にその衝撃と変形で樹脂フィルムにクラックが入り、激しい場合はそこが缶体金属の腐食起点となる。こうした状況に対する特性を耐デント性と呼ぶが、腐食の激しい内容物の場合穿孔缶となることもあり、耐デント性が劣ることは、重大な問題となる要因を有しており好ましくない。
耐デント性は極限粘度が高い程良好であり、０．６０以上であれば多くの場合実用上問題のない品質が確保されるが、腐食性の強い内容物に対しては高い方が安心であり、好ましくは０．６５以上、更に好ましくは０．７０以上が良い。
【００２７】
冷結晶化熱（Ｈｃ）は、樹脂フィルムの結晶性を示す指標であり、熱量が大きいほど結晶性の高い樹脂フィルムであることを指す。かかる意味において冷結晶化熱（Ｈｃ）が１２．０〜３５．０Ｊ／ｇの範囲のポリエステル樹脂フィルムとする。結晶性の樹脂フィルムの場合、前述したようにしごき加工時の発熱と延伸加工により、樹脂フィルムは配向結晶化が起こり、その結果高い加工度には耐えられなくなり亀裂が入る要因となる。
かかる意味から、本発明は缶の内面側のポリエステル樹脂フィルムの冷結晶化熱（Ｈｃ）を限定したものであり、もし冷結晶化熱（Ｈｃ）が１２．０Ｊ／ｇ未満の場合は、成形加工時に配向結晶化し難く、樹脂フィルムに亀裂状の欠陥が発生し難く有利であるが、冷結晶化熱（Ｈｃ）が小さい樹脂フイルムは慨して軟質のものが多く、離型性に劣るため、内面フイルムを傷つける原因となり好ましくない。
【００２８】
一方、冷結晶化熱（Ｈｃ）が３５．０Ｊ／ｇを超えると、加工度との関係もあるが、結晶性が高すぎて成形加工で樹脂フィルムの亀裂欠陥が発生する場合があり好ましくない。特に、高加工度の成形加工では、亀裂状に欠陥が発生する危険性が高い。成形加工における、主にしごき加工時の樹脂フィルムの配向結晶化の程度は、後述する成形加工の条件にも関係があるが、基本的には樹脂固有の結晶性に依るところが大きく、本発明の加工度である板厚減少率が５０〜７０％の範囲では、冷結晶化熱（Ｈｃ）が１２．０〜３５．０Ｊ／ｇの範囲のポリエステル樹脂フィルムであれば、樹脂フィルムに亀裂状の欠陥が発生することなく良好な缶体か得られる。本発明に適用されるポリエステル樹脂フィルムの結晶状態は非晶質であり、密度としては、１．３６ｇ／ｃｍ³未満が好適である。
【００２９】
ラミネート板における樹脂フィルムを非晶質とする理由は、その後行うカップの絞り加工、カップの再絞り加工、更にしごき加工において、樹脂フィルムの加工性を十分に確保することを目的にしたもので、密度が１．３６ｇ／ｃｍ³を超えると、結晶性の低いポリエステル樹脂フィルムでも、成形加工にフィルムが耐えられずフィルムに亀裂欠陥が激しく起こる場合があり好ましくないからである。特に、加工度が大きい時は、しごき加工時の発熱と併せて引き延ばし加工により、樹脂フィルムが配向結晶化が一層進み、その結果加工に追随し難くなり、上記の挙動が顕著に現れ、缶体の耐食性が十分に確保できない場合がしばしば起こる。従って、密度が大きい、結晶化した状態からの成形加工は、特に高加工度に対しては極めて難しく不適である。
【００３０】
更に、本発明では、カップの絞り加工、カップの再絞り加工、更にしごき加工の缶成形加工を施した後、得られた缶体を加熱・冷却し再度樹脂フィルムを非晶質にした後、ネック加工およびフランジ加工を行う。カップの絞り加工、カップの再絞り加工、更にしごき加工を経て得られる缶体は、この時の加工により、樹脂フィルムの密着性は著しく低下しており、この状態でネック加工およびフランジ加工を行うと、樹脂フィルムは剥離し易い。
そこで、本発明では、缶体を加熱・冷却し再度樹脂フィルムを非晶質にした後、ネック加工およびフランジ加工に供するものである。
【００３１】
ポリエステル樹脂フィルムの結晶状態を非晶質化することで、樹脂フィルムは剥離やクラックが発生することなく高縮径のネック加工およびフランジ加工を行うことができる。特に、ネック加工率が高い、高縮径化への対応については、樹脂フィルムの高加工密着性が一層必要となり、この場合樹脂フィルムの密度は低い方が非晶質化度が高いため、良好となる。ポリエステル樹脂フィルムの結晶状態を非晶質と限定した理由は上記の理由からで、特に、第１工程の絞り加工前のラミネート板の状態やネック加工およびフランジ加工前の状態として、好ましくは密度としては１．３５ｇ／ｃｍ³未満が好適である。
【００３２】
次に缶外面側に被覆されているポリエステル樹脂フィルムについて述べる。
本発明では、缶外面となる鋼板面には鋼板と接する側から、融点（Ｔｍ−Ａ）が２２５℃以上で厚みが１０〜１５μｍ、１０〜３０重量％の酸化チタンの白色顔料を含有するポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ａ）と、その上層の、融点（Ｔｍ−Ｂ）が２３５〜２６０℃、厚みが２〜１０μｍで０〜５重量％の酸化チタンの白色顔料を含有するポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ｂ）とからなる総厚みが１２〜２０μｍの二層のポリエステル樹脂フィルムが被覆されている。
ポリエステル樹脂フィルムに酸化チタン顔料を添加して白色化する理由は、現行の鋼板のツーピース缶は外面の缶胴部に対しては印刷の色調や鮮明にするために白色塗装もしくは白色インキ、またはその併用を行っており、また、缶底部には耐錆性の点からスプレーでボトム塗装を行っており、その工程省略を狙いとするものである。
【００３３】
しかし、缶外面側はしごき加工の際、缶内面側と異なり、カップの側壁は直接しごきダイスのしごき作用部に接触し、極圧を受けながらダイスを通過し板厚が薄くなるため、缶外面のポリエステル樹脂フィルムは缶高さ方向へ延びる削られたような傷が入り易くなる。こうして削られたような傷が入る現象は「かじり」と言われ、樹脂フィルム表面の擦過傷程度の軽微なものから、激しいものでは缶高さ方向に直線的にえぐれたような傷が入る場合がある。また、「かじり」は成形加工時の破胴の原因にもなる。
缶外面側のフィルムに「かじり」による傷が入った場合は、その後施される印刷の仕上がり外観を損ねることになるだけでなく、破胴の原因にもなるため、単なる製品のロスだけでなく、生産上のトラブルになり、好ましくない。
【００３４】
前述した「かじり」は▲１▼酸化チタン顔料含有量が多いほど、▲２▼ポリエステル樹脂フィルムの融点（Ｔｍ）が低いほど、▲３▼ポリエステル樹脂フィルムの表面の滑り性が劣るほど、▲４▼しごき加工率が大きいほど、発生し易いことが、発明者等の検討で分かり、解決の施策を鋭意検討した結果、本発明に至ったものである。
本発明におけるポリエステル樹脂フィルムの二層フィルムは、白さの確保を上記のフィルム起因の「かじり」原因を、二層フィルムにすることで役割を分担させた、いわゆる機能分離することで解決したものである。
【００３５】
まず、缶外面側に適用されるポリエステル樹脂フィルムは、樹脂としては缶内面側のものと基本的には同じで、酸成分としてテレフタル酸、イソフタル酸、アジピン酸、セバシン酸等の酸成分と、エチレングリコール、ブチレングリコール等のアルコール成分からなるポリエステル樹脂で、例えばポリエチレンテレフタレート（ＰＥＴ）、ポリブチレンテレフタレート（ＰＢＴ）、ポリエチレンイソフタレート（ＰＥＩ）のようなホモポリマーや、例えばエチレンテレフタレートとエチレンイソフタレートとの共重合樹脂であるコーポリマーや、またこうしたホモポリマー同士のブレンド、ホモポリマーとコーポリマーのブレンド、コーポリマー同士のブレンドといったブレンド樹脂等のフィルムが適用される。
【００３６】
樹脂フィルムの融点（Ｔｍ）は、こうした酸成分とアルコール成分の選定、コーポリマーの程度、ブレンドする樹脂の選定とそのブレンド比、等適宜選定することで得ることができる。まず、缶外面側の最上層にあるポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ｂ）について説明する。ポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ｂ）は融点（Ｔｍ−Ｂ）２３５〜２６０℃、厚みが２〜１０μｍで０〜５重量％の酸化チタンの白色顔料を含有するものである。融点（Ｔｍ−Ｂ）を２３５〜２６０℃に限定した理由は、前述した▲２▼ポリエステル樹脂フィルムの融点（Ｔｍ）が低いほど「かじり」は起こりやすいことによるもので、下限値の２３５℃未満では、しごき加工時の加工熱でフィルムが軟化し、「かじり」を抑えることは出来ない。一方、上限値の２６０℃を超えても「かじり」の発生抑制の更なる効果は見られない。
【００３７】
ポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ｂ）の融点（ＴｍＢ）は基本的には高い方が有利であるが、本発明の缶壁部（缶胴側壁部）の加工度（板厚減少率）である５０〜７０％の範囲内では、ポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ｂ）の融点（ＴｍＢ）は、好ましくは２４０〜２５５℃、更に好ましくは２４５〜２５５℃が良い。
ポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ｂ）に含有させる酸化チタンの白色顔料は０〜５重量％である。酸化チタン白色顔料の含有量を０〜５重量％に限定した理由は、前述した▲１▼酸化チタン顔料含有量が多いほど「かじり」は起こりやすいことによるもので、上限値の５重量％未満であれば、本発明の缶壁部の加工度（板厚減少率）である５０〜７０％の範囲内では「かじり」の発生は見られない。
【００３８】
フィルムの厚みが２〜１０μｍである。ポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ｂ）は前述したように、「かじり」防止の役割を持つものであるから、「かじり」が発生しない最低限の厚みを有していれば良いわけで、本発明の缶壁部の加工度（板厚減少率）である５０〜７０％の範囲内では、ポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ａ）に含有している酸化チタンの白色顔料が３０重量％であっても、７０％の加工度の場合、上限値の１０μｍあれば「かじり」は見られない。一方、５０％の加工度の場合は、下限値の２μｍあれば「かじり」は見られない。フィルム厚みは、勿論１０μｍ超でも「かじり」は見られないが、白さが低下する傾向にあり、白さ確保と「かじり」の防止の兼備からは３〜８μｍが最適である。
【００３９】
次に、缶外面側の鋼板と接するポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ａ）について説明する。
ポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ａ）は、厚みが１０〜１５μｍで１０〜３０重量％の酸化チタンの白色顔料を含有するものである。ポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ａ）の役割は、白さの確保である。従って基本的には酸化チタンの含有量が多い、厚いフィルムの方が白さの確保には有利であることは明白であるが、フィルム特性の低下やコスト高となるため、そのバランスがポイントとなる。
まず、ポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ａ）の酸化チタンの白色顔料の含有量は１０〜３０重量％である。酸化チタンの白色顔料の含有量は、多いほど白さの確保には有利であるが、白色顔料の含有量が多くなるほどフィルム自身の凝集力が低下し、高加工に耐えられない場合が生じる。
【００４０】
本発明の上限値の３０重量％を超えると、隠蔽率としては一層高くなるので白さの確保からは有利であるが、缶壁部の加工度（板厚減少率）が大きい場合、フィルム自身の凝集力低下によるフィルム自身の缶高さ方向に平行なマイクロクラックが発生し、外観を損ねるため好ましくない。
一方、下限値の１０重量％未満では、前記のポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ｂ）に含有させる酸化チタン５重量％との組み合わせでも白さは不十分で、外面印刷時に補色せざるを得ず、工程省略が出来ず経済的でない。
ポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ａ）の酸化チタンの白色顔料の含有量は、１５〜３０重量％が最適である。
【００４１】
ポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ａ）の厚みは、１０〜１５μｍである。フィルム厚みは厚い方が隠蔽率としては高くなるため、白さの確保と言った点からは有利であるが、１５μｍを超えても隠蔽率の向上効果は大きく期待できず、むしろコスト高となってしまい経済的でない。一方、１０μｍ未満では酸化チタンの白色顔料を３０重量％含有させた場合でも、本発明の缶壁部の加工度（板厚減少率）である７０％程度の高加工度の場合は、隠蔽率は劣り白さは不十分で、外面印刷時に補色せざるを得ず、工程省略が出来ず経済的でない。
【００４２】
本発明のポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ａ）の融点（Ｔｍ−Ａ）は、２２５℃以上である。ポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ａ）は、直接加工金型に接触するものではないが、２２５℃以下ではしごき加工時に発生する鋼板の加工熱によって軟化し、その上層にポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ｂ）が存在していても「かじり」が発生する場合があるので、２２５℃以下では好ましくない。
また、缶内面に積層されるポリエステル樹脂フィルムとのラミネート温度が大きく異なると、ラミネートし難い点もあることから、なるべく缶内面に被覆されるポリエステル樹脂フィルムの融点と近いものが望ましい。
【００４３】
更には、上層にあるポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ｂ）の融点（Ｔｍ−Ｂ）との差が大きいと、ポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ａ）とポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ｂ）の層間密着力が低下するため、成形加工時に思わぬ密着不良が発生したり、また、ラミネート時や更にはその後の熱を受ける工程でフィルムずれが発生したりすることがあるので、理想的にはポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ａ）とポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ｂ）とは同一樹脂組成のものが良いが、何らかの理由から異なる樹脂組成にする場合は、ポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ａ）とポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ｂ）の融点差は３５℃以下に、出来るなら３０℃以下にすることが望ましい。
【００４４】
更に、本発明では、缶外面に被覆されるポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ａ）とその上層ポリエステル樹脂フィルム（Ｂ）の総厚みは１２〜２０μｍである。
前述したように「かじり」は、フィルム厚みが厚いほど起こり易く、かかる意味において、缶外面側の樹脂フィルムの総厚みは１２〜２０μｍが「かじり」防止効果と経済性からは最適である。
また、本発明では缶外面のポリエステル樹脂フィルムも非晶質のものが適用される。非晶質にする理由は前述した缶内面フィルムの場合と同じで、しごき加工やネック加工、フランジ加工に対し良好な加工性を付与するためである。
【００４５】
なお、ポリエステル樹脂フィルム皮膜ラミネート鋼板の製造方法としては、加熱された鋼板の表面に樹脂フィルムを供給してロール間で熱圧着し被覆させた後、直ちに急冷して、非晶質にする方法や、溶融した樹脂を押し出し、鋼板に供給し被覆させ、直ちに急冷して、非晶質にする方法や、例えば二軸延伸されたフィルムを適用する場合は、一度被覆したポリエステル樹脂を、必要に応じ更に樹脂の融点以上に加熱した後、直ちに急冷して非晶質にする方法等が適用できる。
鋼板の加熱方法としては、電気炉中で加熱する方法、熱風による加熱方法、加熱ロールに接触させて加熱する方法、高周波で誘導加熱する方法等の加熱方法が採用できる。
【００４６】
次に、本発明の缶体の加工後、即ち缶壁部の板厚減少率について述べる。
本発明の缶体の加工度は、下記に示した式（１）から求められる値として、５０〜７０％である。
加工度（％）＝｛（Ｔｂ−Ｔｗ）／Ｔｂ｝×１００ …… （１）
Ｔｂ：缶底部の鋼板の板厚Ｔｗ：缶壁部の鋼板の最も薄い部位の板厚
加工度としては、現在スチール素材やアルミニウム素材から製造されているＤＩ缶の範疇のもので特別なものではないが、加工度が５０％未満では、被覆された内外面のポリエステル樹脂フィルムの加工による損傷は全くなく、良好な缶体が得られるが、特に、鋼板の元板厚（缶底部の鋼板厚みに相当）が厚い場合は、缶重量が重くなり経済的でない。
【００４７】
一方、加工度が７０％を超えると、内面はポリエステル樹脂フィルムとパンチの離型性が劣り、樹脂フィルムの傷付きにより耐食性を確保するのが難しくなる場合が多々起こり易くなる。また、外面のポリエステル樹脂フィルムも「かじり」易くなり、好ましくない。更に、特に、鋼板の元板厚（缶底部の鋼板厚みに相当）が薄い場合は、後述するネック加工でしわが入ったり、フランジ加工で缶体の開口部が割れる、いわゆるフランジ割れが起こったりして好ましくない。加工度の限定は上記の理由によるもので、５０〜７０％が最適である。
【００４８】
次に、本発明の缶体の成形加工方法について述べる。
本発明の缶体は、ポリエステル樹脂フィルムで被覆されたラミネート鋼板を、絞り加工にてカップ状に成形する第１工程と、次いで第１工程で得たカップを更に再絞り加工し、第１工程で得たカップより缶径が小さく、缶高さの高いカップを成形する第２工程と、次いでこのカップの缶壁部をパンチとしごきダイスの間に通し、缶壁を薄く伸ばすいわゆるしごき加工を行う第３工程と、次いで缶底部のドーム成形を行う第４工程、次いで第４工程で得た缶体を正規な缶高さに切断するトリミングを行った後、缶開口部を縮径にするネック加工と天蓋を巻き締めるに必要なフランジ加工を行う第５工程から成っている。
【００４９】
前記の成形加工方法における、第１工程の絞り加工、第２工程の再絞り加工、第３工程のしごき加工は、いずれも缶壁部の板厚の増減を伴った加工であるが、第４工程の缶底部のドーム成形加工および第５工程のネック加工／フランジ加工は、事実上板厚の増減は伴わない加工である。従って、シームレス缶として成形加工されたものは、第３工程後の缶体が最終缶体となる。
本発明の缶体を得る加工方法としては、現在スチール素材やアルミニウム素材から製造されているＤＩ缶の加工方法と特別大きく変わるものではないが、本発明の缶体の性能を十分に確保するためには、次の手段を採用することが望ましい。
【００５０】
即ち、第１工程の絞り加工および第２工程の再絞り加工は、ラミネート鋼板やカップの温度または金型の温度を被覆樹脂フィルムのガラス転移温度（Ｔｇ）から冷結晶化温度（Ｔｃ）の範囲で行うのが、カップ底部コーナーの樹脂フィルムの健全性を確保するためには望ましい。
更に、第１工程の絞り加工および第２工程の再絞り加工では、第３工程で行うしごき加工での被覆された樹脂フィルムの負荷を軽減するために、ストレッチ加工や軽度なしごき加工を付加して絞り加工や再絞り加工するのが望ましい。
【００５１】
第３工程のしごき加工は、第２工程の再絞り加工で得たカップの温度を５０℃以下にした後、加工金型の温度を１００℃以下、できることなら缶内面に被覆されている樹脂フィルムのガラス転移温度（Ｔｇ）以下に保持して行うのが、樹脂フィルムの結晶化による欠陥発生を抑制し、またパンチとの離型性もよいことから望ましい。
なお、しごき加工はしごきダイスを１枚で行う１段しごき加工や、２枚乃至は３枚で行う多段しごき加工などが適用出来るが、加工時の熱の蓄積を考慮するとしごきダイスは少ない方が良く、しごきダイスを１枚で行う１段しごき加工が望ましい。
【００５２】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a polyester resin-coated seamless can made of steel.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Metal cans / containers made of steel or aluminum are roughly classified into three-piece cans and two-piece cans based on their shapes. Three-piece cans are called three-piece cans because they consist of a ground cover, a can body, and a canopy, and steel making methods are currently mainly used for seam welding and bonding, so inexpensive steel is used.
On the other hand, the two-piece can is an integrated body and can body, and because it consists of a canopy, it is also called a two-piece can or a seamless can because there is no joint in the can body, and steel and aluminum. Is used. In the case of metal cans, those coated on the inner surface side of the can to ensure corrosion resistance are used. In recent years, laminated cans in which a thermoplastic resin film is laminated have been developed and are on the market. Laminate cans are mainly those in which a metal material is coated with a thermoplastic resin film and subjected to a can molding process. In particular, in order to obtain a two-piece can, an advanced molding technique is required.
[0003]
From this point of view, many techniques relating to two-piece laminate cans have been proposed and disclosed, for example, in JP-A-7-2241, JP-A-7-195619, and JP-A-8-244750.
The merit of laminated cans depends on the thermoplastic resin film to be applied from the consumer's side, but first of all, it has excellent content resistance, especially flavor, such as taste and flavor of the contents. Has been raised.
On the other hand, as a demerit, this time is from the side of the can manufacturer, but as described above, in the case of the two-piece can, since the degree of processing (or degree of deformation) of the thermoplastic resin film-coated metal plate is large, the inner surface of the can during molding If the resin film is scratched, the quality of the inner surface of the can cannot be ensured. Therefore, it is necessary to strictly inspect the quality of the can body, and the product yield is inferior to the current paint can. Raised. In particular, in the case of a two-piece laminate can using a steel material, the above tendency is large.
[0004]
The film defects of the resin film on the inner surface side of such a laminate can are entered during the can molding process as described above, and minimizing this defect is an important technical issue in terms of quality and product yield. Needless to say.
On the other hand, from the viewpoint of reducing the total can cost, it has been promoted to reduce the thickness of the metal plate used and to reduce the diameter of the easy-to-open can lid (easy open end, commonly known as EOE). For example, if the can body is a 350 ml beer can, it is commonly called 211, and the inner diameter of the can body is about 65.9 mm. Currently, the can lid used for this can body is for 206 and 204, and attempts to use 202 can lids are being made.
[0005]
This inevitably results in a so-called diameter reduction by narrowing the opening of the can body to a smaller diameter, and therefore severe processing is required not only for the metal used in the can body but also for the resin film coated on the surface thereof. Will receive.
However, in the two-piece can molding process with ironing, especially when the processing rate is high, peeling of the thermoplastic resin film on the inner side, scratches and other defects are difficult to enter, and neck processing and flange processing for high diameter reduction However, the present situation is that no suitable film laminate material has been found that can be molded without peeling off the resin film and without introducing scratches or other defects.
[0006]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The present invention has been made in view of such a situation, and an object of the present invention is to provide a high-resin-coated steel seamless can having high corrosion resistance and no film defects with high yield.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In the present invention, the steel sheet surface, which is the inner surface side of the steel sheet can, has a thickness of 15 to 50 μm, a melting point (Tm) of 225 to 260 ° C., an intrinsic viscosity (IV) of 0.60 or more, and a cold crystallization heat (Hc ) Is 12.0-35.0 J / g, density is 1.36 g / cm ^Three A polyester resin film having a thickness less than 225 ° C. and a thickness of 10 to 15 μm and a thickness of 10 to 30% by weight from the side in contact with the steel plate on the surface of the steel plate which is the outer surface side of the can Polyester resin film (A) containing a white pigment and a white pigment of 0 to 5% by weight of titanium oxide having a melting point (Tm-B) of 235 to 260 ° C. and a thickness of 2 to 10 μm in the upper layer. Polyester resin film having a total thickness of 12 to 20 [mu] m and a polyester resin film on both sides which contacts the inner and outer surfaces of the can are both amorphized A can body that has been drawn and ironed from a laminated steel sheet of a film and further molded, is at least the melting point of the polyester resin film on the inner surface of the can Heated and quenched to above, a film coating two-piece can polyester resin film that is coated on at least inner surface of the can is amorphous.
In addition, on the surface of the steel plate before coating the polyester resin film, the amount of adhesion on one side is 20 to 2000 mg / m. ² Ni plating layer of 1 to 100 mg / m as the amount of adhesion C on one side to the upper layer ² A chemical conversion treatment film mainly composed of the above organic resin is formed.
[0008]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the laminated seamless can of the present invention will be described in detail.
First, the steel plate in the present invention will be described.
The steel plate in the present invention is 20 to 2000 mg / m as the amount of adhesion on one side on both sides. ² Ni plating layer of 1 to 100 mg / m as the amount of C deposited on one side of the Ni plating layer ² It has a chemical conversion treatment film layer mainly composed of organic resin.
The steel plate before Ni plating and chemical conversion treatment is not particularly limited, and those usually used as steel plates for cans are applied. However, when selecting, it is necessary to pay attention to the strength of the can body, in particular, the bottom pressure strength. In the beer can, the bottom pressure strength is 618 kPa or more at the maximum. A phenomenon occurs in which the dome at the bottom of the can protrudes outside the can. In order to avoid this phenomenon, there is a relationship with the hardness and bottom shape of the steel plate used, but at present, it is difficult if the steel plate thickness is 0.15 mm or less. On the other hand, if the steel plate thickness is 0.22 mm, the phenomenon that the dome at the bottom of the can protrudes outward from the can does not occur even if the hardness of the used steel plate is low. Accordingly, the thickness of the steel plate is preferably 0.15 to 0.22 mm.
[0009]
Next, the surface treatment of Ni plating or chemical conversion coating applied to the surface of the steel sheet will be described.
In the present invention, the reason why Ni is first adhered to the steel sheet surface will be described.
In the case of a two-piece can obtained by drawing and ironing a steel sheet coated with a resin film as in the present invention, the metal plating film or chemical conversion film formed on the surface of the steel sheet is destroyed according to the degree of processing, and before processing. The characteristics of are reduced.
As a surface-treated steel sheet in the case of forming from a steel sheet coated with a resin film as in the present invention, TFS-CT (TFS-CT which has been subjected to electrolytic chromic acid treatment for forming metallic chromium on the steel sheet and hydrated chromium oxide on the upper layer thereof is used. Tin-free steel chromium type) is well known, but such surface-treated steel plates are no exception, and part of the surface-treated film is destroyed after drawing-ironing forming. As a result, thread-like corrosion may occur starting from a location where iron is exposed, such as an opening of a can. Cans that have undergone thread-like corrosion are of course problematic as their commercial value is lost.
[0010]
Filiform corrosion is named because the corrosion site grows in a filamentous form, but occurs in iron and aluminum, and the growth of the corrosion is driven by the reduction reaction of oxygen. The electrolytic chromic acid-treated film applied to the steel sheet described above is a film in which this oxygen reduction reaction is unlikely to occur. Therefore, when the film is healthy, filamentous corrosion is extremely unlikely. However, after the drawing-ironing process, part of the surface treatment film is destroyed, and thus thread-like corrosion occurs. Ni is known as a metal that does not cause thread-like corrosion. Covering an iron base with such a metal is effective in preventing the thread-like corrosion of a steel sheet. Since the soundness of the film is not ensured after processing, in the present invention, the adhesion amount of the Ni plating is 20 to 2000 mg / m as the weight on one side. ² And
[0011]
Lower limit of 20 mg / m ² If it is less than 50%, the minimum value of the plate thickness reduction rate of the can of the present invention is 50%, which is not preferable because thread-like corrosion occurs. Further, in the above-described high-reduction neck processing such as 204 (inner diameter of about 54.9 mm) and 202 (inner diameter of about 52.4 mm), the coated polyester resin film may be peeled off, which is not preferable.
Furthermore, the Ni adhesion amount is the lower limit of 20 mg / m ² If it is less than this, if a defect occurs in the coating film on the inner surface side, depending on the contents, there is a risk that the base iron dissolves and becomes a perforated can, which is not preferable.
[0012]
On the other hand, the upper limit is 2000 mg / m ² If it is more than 70%, which is the maximum value of the plate thickness reduction rate of the can of the present invention, the effects such as the occurrence of thread corrosion and the securing of adhesion are saturated. Therefore, the Ni adhesion amount is 20 mg / m. ² The above is necessary, and in order to fully exhibit the effect of Ni, the amount of adhesion on one side is 100 mg / m. ² It is desirable to perform the above Ni plating. In addition, since Ni is present on the steel plate surface of the outer surface of the can, the whiteness is slightly improved, the amount of white pigment mixed into the polyester resin film covering the surface that becomes the outer surface of the can and the white coating performed during printing / painting There is also an economic effect that the amount of white ink applied can be reduced. Considering these things comprehensively, the Ni adhesion amount is 20 to 2000 mg / m. ² Is the optimal range, preferably 100-2000 mg / m ² Is preferred. As a method for attaching Ni to the steel plate, a well-known electroplating or electroless plating method can be applied.
[0013]
Next, the chemical conversion treatment film will be described.
The steel sheet of the present invention has a chemical conversion treatment film mainly composed of an organic resin on the upper layer of Ni plating. The chemical conversion treatment film mainly composed of organic resin is polymerized when dried, and uniformly covers the Ni plating surface. Therefore, first, the adhesion with the polyester resin film laminated on the upper layer should be strengthened. it can. Secondly, since the oxygen reduction reaction that serves as the driving force for the above-described filamentous corrosion can be suppressed, excellent performance such as prevention of filamentous corrosion is exhibited.
In addition, the chemical conversion film layer mainly composed of an organic resin has particularly good adhesion with a polyester resin film, and therefore, film peeling caused by insufficient adhesion even when subjected to high-drawing and ironing processing ( There is no such thing as delamination) or a broken case caused by severe delamination, and a good can body can be obtained.
[0014]
The adhesion amount of the chemical conversion film is, for example, a value measured with TOTAL ORGANIC CARBON ANALYZER TOC-5000 manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation as the C amount, and is 1 to 100 mg / m. ² It is.
The lower limit is 1 mg / m ² If it is less than this, the coatability is inferior, and both the anticorrosive action and the adhesion are insufficient. Further, even in the case of 50% which is the minimum value of the plate thickness reduction rate of the can of the present invention, the resin film is locally peeled after the molding process, so-called delamination occurs or the can body after the molding process has a thread-like shape from the opening. Corrosion occurs and is not preferable. However, the chemical conversion film mainly composed of organic resin is 1 mg / m as C amount. ² When applied above, adhesion is improved and 5 mg / m ² As described above, sufficient adhesion is ensured.
[0015]
On the other hand, the upper limit of 100 mg / m ² Exceeding the above, there is no occurrence of thread-like corrosion, but there may be a case where the adhesion reduction, which is considered to be cohesive failure of the chemical conversion coating itself, may occur in the molding process of 70% which is the maximum value of the reduction rate of the thickness of the can of the present invention. Yes, not preferred. The amount of chemical conversion coating mainly composed of organic resin is 100 mg / m with C content. ² By setting it as the following, it becomes possible to prevent the adhesive fall by a shaping | molding process. Therefore, the amount of the chemical conversion film mainly composed of organic resin is 1 to 100 mg / m as the amount of C. ² However, in consideration of stable productivity as an industrial product, the amount of C is 5 to 50 mg / m. ² The range of is preferably optimal.
[0016]
As a method for treating the steel sheet, for example, phosphoric acid and its salt, condensed phosphoric acid and its salt, zirconium phosphate, phosphoric acid compound such as titanium phosphate, and vinyl ethoxysilane, aminopropyltriethoxysilane, etc. An aqueous solution mainly composed of an organic silicon compound such as a silane coupling agent and a water-soluble organic resin such as a water-soluble phenol resin or a water-soluble acrylic resin is spray-coated on the Ni-plated steel sheet and the squeezing roll A method of drying and curing after adjusting the adhesion amount by using a method, a method of immersing a Ni-plated steel sheet in the treatment liquid and adjusting the adhesion amount with a squeeze roll, and drying and curing can be applied as appropriate. As a drying and curing method, a method such as drying with hot air or drying in an electric furnace can be applied, the temperature is 150 to 250 ° C., and the drying time is about 10 seconds to 2 minutes.
[0017]
Next, although the resin film applied to this invention is demonstrated, the technical problem of the lamination two-piece can obtained by carrying out drawing-ironing processing from the resin film lamination metal plate is described before that.
As mentioned above, the disadvantage of the two-piece laminated can is that if the degree of processing (or degree of deformation) of the thermoplastic resin film-coated metal plate is large, or if the resin film on the inner surface of the can is damaged during molding, the inner surface of the can As a result, the quality of the can cannot be ensured, so that it is necessary to strictly inspect the quality of the can, and the product yield is inferior to that of the current paint can.
[0018]
In particular, in the case of a laminated seamless can using a steel material, the above tendency is large. It goes without saying that such film defects on the resin film on the inner surface side of the laminated can enter the can molding process, and minimizing this defect is an important technical problem in terms of quality and product yield.
The fact that the defects of the resin film that occur during the molding process are particularly likely to occur during the ironing process has been clarified from studies by the inventors and the like, and the causes are considered to be summarized in the following two points.
[0019]
That is, metal processing heat is generated during the molding process, and the characteristics of the resin film are greatly changed. The characteristic changes of the resin film due to heat are (1) softening of the resin film and (2) crystal of the resin film. There is.
The softening of the resin film of (1) causes the resin film to adhere to the punch during the ironing process, causing a so-called releasability failure that makes it difficult to remove the punch, and causes damage to the resin film on the inner surface.
In addition, when the releasability is severe, the vicinity of the opening of the can body may buckle, and there may be a situation in which the normal can body height cannot be obtained.
[0020]
In the crystallization of the resin film (2), orientation crystallization occurs in the resin film due to heat generation during the ironing process and stretching process, and as a result, the resin film cannot withstand high processing and causes cracks in the resin film. Anyway, it leads to generation | occurrence | production of the defect of the inner and outer surface film of a can, and is unpreferable. The two causes of defects that occur during the ironing process are basically a reciprocal relationship when viewed from the thermal characteristics of the polyester resin film, so how to balance them is a technical issue.
In the present invention, a thermoplastic polyester resin film is applied to the resin film covering the steel plate on both the inner and outer surfaces of the can.
[0021]
In the present invention, the reason why the resin film to be coated is limited to the thermoplastic polyester resin film is that (1) heat resistance is good. (2) The flavor of the contents is ensured for the inner surface of the can because it has characteristics suitable for can applications that are not found in polyolefin resin films such as polyethylene and polypropylene. For both the inner and outer surfaces of the can, the coated polyester resin film is a polyester resin comprising an acid component such as terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, adipic acid, and sebacic acid as an acid component, and an alcohol component such as ethylene glycol and butylene glycol. Homopolymers such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polyethylene isophthalate (PEI), copolymers such as copolymers of ethylene terephthalate and ethylene isophthalate, and A film obtained from a blend resin such as a blend, a blend of a homopolymer and a copolymer, or a blend of copolymers is applied. The melting point (Tm) and cold crystallization heat (Hc) of the resin film can be obtained by appropriately selecting such acid component and alcohol component, degree of copolymer, selection of resin to be blended and blend ratio thereof. it can.
[0022]
First, the thickness of the polyester resin film coated on the inner surface side of the can will be described.
In the present invention, the thickness of the polyester resin film coated on the steel plate is 15 to 50 μm. The thickness of the film coated on the steel plate surface that hits the inner surface of the can is limited from the point of corrosion resistance of the inner surface of the can, and if it is less than 15 μm, depending on the contents to be filled after the can molding process, sufficient corrosion resistance is provided. It can be difficult to secure.
On the other hand, if it exceeds 50 μm, corrosion resistance is almost ensured for the contents, but it is substantially excessive quality and is not economical. As film thickness, 18-40 micrometers is a preferable range from quality and economical efficiency.
[0023]
In addition, when the method of the present invention is carried out, the selection of the film thickness is also an important factor in the selection because it has a relationship with the degree of processing for reducing the wall thickness of the can wall described later.
That is, when the degree of processing is high, the thickness of the film is naturally reduced according to the degree of processing, and as a result, the anticorrosion performance of the inner surface of the can is lowered. Therefore, when the degree of processing is high, it is desirable to apply a thick film in advance. On the other hand, when the degree of processing is low, it is possible to apply a thin film in advance accordingly.
In the present invention, the polyester resin film on the inner surface side of the can is a resin film having a melting point (Tm) of 225 to 260 ° C.
[0024]
At the time of forming, metal processing heat is generated, and the can body becomes a considerable temperature. In particular, the metal processing heat generated during ironing greatly changes the characteristics of the resin film. One of the characteristic changes of the resin film due to heat is softening of the resin film. When the resin film is softened, the resin film on the inner surface of the can adheres to the punch during the ironing process, and the punch is difficult to come off from the can body. In other words, so-called releasability failure occurs, which causes damage to the resin film on the inner surface.
In addition, when the releasability is severe, the vicinity of the opening of the can body may buckle, and there may be a situation in which the normal can body height cannot be obtained.
[0025]
When the melting point (Tm) of the resin film is lower than 225 ° C., this releasability is poor, which damages the inner surface film and leads to a decrease in corrosion resistance.
On the other hand, if the upper limit value exceeds 260 ° C., no further effect of releasability associated with higher melting point can be expected and saturation occurs.
The melting point (Tm) of the polyester resin film on the inner surface side of the can is limited from the above releasability, but the calorific value at the time of ironing is also related to the degree of processing described later, only the melting point of the resin film. Although the quality of releasability is not determined, basically a higher melting point is advantageous, and 230 to 255 ° C. is preferable.
[0026]
Furthermore, in this invention, the intrinsic viscosity (common name IV) of the polyester resin film of the can inner surface side is 0.60 or more. Intrinsic viscosity (IV) is an index indicating the average molecular weight of the resin, but if the intrinsic viscosity is less than 0.60, the impact strength of the resin film is small, and when a can filled with the contents is dropped, it is placed at that site. Not only is the material deformed due to the impact, but at the same time, the resin film is cracked by the impact and deformation, and when it is severe, this is the starting point for corrosion of the can body metal. Although the characteristic for such a situation is called dent resistance, in the case of a highly corrosive content, it may become a perforated can, and inferior dent resistance has a serious problem and is not preferable.
The higher the intrinsic viscosity is, the better the dent resistance is, and if it is 0.60 or more, in many cases the quality without any practical problems is ensured, but the higher one is more secure for highly corrosive contents. Yes, preferably 0.65 or more, more preferably 0.70 or more.
[0027]
The cold crystallization heat (Hc) is an index indicating the crystallinity of the resin film, and indicates that the higher the amount of heat, the higher the crystallinity of the resin film. In this sense, the polyester resin film has a cold crystallization heat (Hc) in the range of 12.0 to 35.0 J / g. In the case of a crystalline resin film, as described above, the resin film undergoes orientational crystallization due to heat generation and stretching during the ironing process, and as a result, the resin film cannot withstand a high degree of processing and causes cracks.
In this sense, the present invention limits the heat of cold crystallization (Hc) of the polyester resin film on the inner surface side of the can. If the heat of cold crystallization (Hc) is less than 12.0 J / g, molding is performed. Although it is difficult to orientate and crystallize at the time of processing and crack-like defects do not easily occur in the resin film, resin films having a low cold crystallization heat (Hc) are much softer and inferior in releasability. This is not preferable because it causes damage to the inner film.
[0028]
On the other hand, when the heat of cold crystallization (Hc) exceeds 35.0 J / g, there is also a relationship with the degree of processing, but the crystallinity is too high, and cracking defects in the resin film may occur during molding, which is not preferable. . In particular, in the forming process with a high degree of processing, there is a high risk that defects will be generated in the form of cracks. In the molding process, the degree of orientation crystallization of the resin film mainly during the ironing process is related to the molding process conditions described later, but basically depends largely on the crystallinity inherent to the resin. If the plate thickness reduction rate, which is the degree of processing, is in the range of 50 to 70%, the resin film is cracked if it is a polyester resin film having a cold crystallization heat (Hc) in the range of 12.0 to 35.0 J / g. A good can body can be obtained without any defects. The crystalline state of the polyester resin film applied to the present invention is amorphous, and the density is 1.36 g / cm. ^Three Less than is suitable.
[0029]
The reason for making the resin film amorphous in the laminate is to ensure sufficient processability of the resin film in the subsequent cup drawing, cup redrawing, and ironing. Density is 1.36 g / cm ^Three This is because even if the polyester resin film has a low crystallinity, the film cannot withstand the molding process, and crack defects may occur severely in the film, which is not preferable. In particular, when the degree of processing is large, the resin film further undergoes orientation crystallization due to the stretching process combined with the heat generation during the ironing process, and as a result, it becomes difficult to follow the processing, and the above behavior appears remarkably, and the can body Often, corrosion resistance cannot be sufficiently secured. Therefore, molding from a crystallized state having a high density is extremely difficult and unsuitable particularly for a high degree of processing.
[0030]
Furthermore, in the present invention, after performing cup drawing, cup redrawing, and ironing can molding, the resulting can body was heated and cooled to make the resin film amorphous again, Neck processing and flange processing are performed. The can obtained by drawing the cup, redrawing the cup, and further squeezing has significantly reduced the adhesion of the resin film due to the processing at this time. In this state, the neck processing and the flange processing are performed. And a resin film is easy to peel.
Therefore, in the present invention, the can body is heated and cooled to make the resin film amorphous again, and then subjected to neck processing and flange processing.
[0031]
By making the crystalline state of the polyester resin film amorphous, the resin film can be subjected to neck processing and flange processing with a high diameter reduction without peeling or cracking. In particular, in order to cope with a high neck processing rate and high diameter reduction, it is necessary to have a high processing adhesion of the resin film. In this case, the lower the density of the resin film, the higher the degree of amorphization. It becomes. The reason why the crystalline state of the polyester resin film is limited to the amorphous state is as described above. In particular, as the state of the laminate plate before the drawing process and the state before the neck process and the flange process in the first step, preferably as the density 1.35 g / cm ^Three Less than is suitable.
[0032]
Next, the polyester resin film coated on the outer surface side of the can is described.
In the present invention, a polyester containing a white pigment of titanium oxide having a melting point (Tm-A) of 225 ° C. or higher, a thickness of 10 to 15 μm, and 10 to 30% by weight from the side in contact with the steel plate on the steel plate surface serving as the outer surface of the can. A polyester resin film (B) containing a white pigment of 0 to 5% by weight of a resin film (A) and an upper layer thereof having a melting point (Tm-B) of 235 to 260 ° C. and a thickness of 2 to 10 μm; A two-layer polyester resin film having a total thickness of 12 to 20 μm is coated.
The reason why the polyester resin film is whitened by adding a titanium oxide pigment is that the current two-piece can of steel plate is white coating or white ink or its In addition, the bottom of the can is bottom-coated with a spray from the viewpoint of rust resistance, and the aim is to omit the process.
[0033]
However, when ironing the outer surface of the can, unlike the inner surface of the can, the side wall of the cup is in direct contact with the ironing part of the ironing die, passing through the die while receiving extreme pressure, and the plate thickness is reduced. The polyester resin film is likely to have scratches such as scrapes extending in the can height direction. The phenomenon of scratches that appear to have been shaved in this way is said to be “galling”, and from scratches that are as slight as scratches on the surface of the resin film, scratches that are swept linearly in the can height direction can occur with severe ones. is there. In addition, “galling” can also cause broken bodies during molding.
If the film on the outer surface of the can is scratched by "galling", it will not only impair the finished appearance of the subsequent printing, but it may also cause a broken body, so it is not only a loss of the product. This is not preferable because it causes production problems.
[0034]
The above-mentioned “Kajiri” is as follows: (1) The higher the titanium oxide pigment content, (2) the lower the melting point (Tm) of the polyester resin film, (3) the lower the slipperiness of the surface of the polyester resin film, As the ironing rate increases, it is more likely that the ironing rate is generated, and as a result of intensive studies on solutions to solve the problem, the present invention has been achieved.
The two-layer film of the polyester resin film in the present invention has been solved by so-called functional separation, in which the role of the two-layer film is shared by ensuring the whiteness, the cause of "galling" due to the above-mentioned film. It is.
[0035]
First, the polyester resin film applied to the outer surface of the can is basically the same as the resin on the inner surface of the can, and the acid component is an acid component such as terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, adipic acid, sebacic acid, Polyester resin composed of alcohol components such as ethylene glycol and butylene glycol, for example, homopolymers such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polyethylene isophthalate (PEI), for example, ethylene terephthalate and ethylene isophthalate Films such as blend resins such as a copolymer, a blend of homopolymers, a blend of homopolymers and copolymers, and a blend of copolymers are applied.
[0036]
The melting point (Tm) of the resin film can be obtained by appropriately selecting such acid component and alcohol component, the degree of copolymer, selection of resin to be blended and blend ratio thereof. First, the polyester resin film (B) in the uppermost layer on the outer side of the can will be described. The polyester resin film (B) contains a white pigment of titanium oxide having a melting point (Tm-B) of 235 to 260 ° C. and a thickness of 2 to 10 μm and 0 to 5% by weight. The reason why the melting point (Tm-B) is limited to 235 to 260 ° C. is that the lower the melting point (Tm) of the polyester resin film described above, the more likely “galling” occurs, and the lower limit value is less than 235 ° C. Then, the film is softened by the processing heat during the ironing process, and “galling” cannot be suppressed. On the other hand, even if the upper limit of 260 ° C. is exceeded, no further effect of suppressing the occurrence of “galling” is observed.
[0037]
The higher melting point (TmB) of the polyester resin film (B) is basically advantageous, but the degree of processing (thickness reduction rate) of the can wall portion (can body side wall portion) of the present invention is 50 to 70. Within the range of%, the melting point (TmB) of the polyester resin film (B) is preferably 240 to 255 ° C, more preferably 245 to 255 ° C.
The white pigment of titanium oxide contained in the polyester resin film (B) is 0 to 5% by weight. The reason why the content of the titanium oxide white pigment is limited to 0 to 5% by weight is that the above-mentioned (1) “galling” is more likely to occur as the titanium oxide pigment content increases, and is less than the upper limit of 5% by weight. If so, the occurrence of “galling” is not observed within the range of 50 to 70%, which is the degree of processing (plate thickness reduction rate) of the can wall portion of the present invention.
[0038]
The thickness of the film is 2 to 10 μm. As described above, since the polyester resin film (B) has a role of preventing “galling”, it is sufficient that the polyester resin film (B) has a minimum thickness that does not cause “galling”. 70% of the white pigment of titanium oxide contained in the polyester resin film (A) is within the range of 50 to 70%, which is the degree of processing (thickness reduction rate) of the part. In the case of the degree, no “galling” is seen if the upper limit value is 10 μm. On the other hand, in the case of a processing degree of 50%, “galling” is not observed if the lower limit is 2 μm. Of course, “galling” is not observed even when the film thickness exceeds 10 μm, but whiteness tends to decrease, and 3 to 8 μm is optimal from the viewpoint of ensuring whiteness and preventing “galling”.
[0039]
Next, the polyester resin film (A) in contact with the steel plate on the outer surface side of the can will be described.
The polyester resin film (A) contains a white pigment of titanium oxide having a thickness of 10 to 15 μm and 10 to 30% by weight. The role of the polyester resin film (A) is to ensure whiteness. Therefore, it is clear that a thick film with a high content of titanium oxide is basically more advantageous for securing whiteness. However, since the film characteristics are reduced and the cost is high, the balance is the key. Become.
First, the content of the white pigment of titanium oxide in the polyester resin film (A) is 10 to 30% by weight. The higher the white pigment content of titanium oxide is, the more advantageous it is to ensure the whiteness. However, the higher the white pigment content, the lower the cohesive strength of the film itself, and it may not be able to withstand high processing.
[0040]
If the upper limit of 30% by weight of the present invention is exceeded, the concealment rate is further increased, which is advantageous for securing whiteness. However, when the degree of processing of the can wall portion (plate thickness reduction rate) is large, the film itself This is not preferable because microcracks parallel to the can height direction of the film itself are generated due to a decrease in the cohesive strength of the film and the appearance is impaired.
On the other hand, if it is less than 10% by weight of the lower limit value, whiteness is insufficient even in combination with 5% by weight of titanium oxide contained in the polyester resin film (B), and it must be complemented when printing on the outer surface. Is not economical.
The content of the white pigment of titanium oxide in the polyester resin film (A) is optimally 15 to 30% by weight.
[0041]
The thickness of the polyester resin film (A) is 10 to 15 μm. The thicker the film, the higher the concealment rate, which is advantageous from the point of securing whiteness. However, if the thickness exceeds 15 μm, the concealment rate cannot be greatly improved, and the cost is rather high. It is not economical. On the other hand, if it is less than 10 μm, even when 30% by weight of the white pigment of titanium oxide is contained, the concealment rate is high in the case of a high workability of about 70%, which is the workability (thickness reduction rate) of the can wall portion of the present invention. Is inferior in whiteness, has to be complementary when printing on the outside, and is not economical because the process can not be omitted.
[0042]
The melting point (Tm-A) of the polyester resin film (A) of the present invention is 225 ° C. or higher. The polyester resin film (A) is not in direct contact with the processing mold, but is softened by the processing heat of the steel sheet generated during the ironing process at 225 ° C. or lower, and the polyester resin film (B) is present on the upper layer. However, since “galling” may occur, it is not preferable at 225 ° C. or lower.
Further, if the lamination temperature of the polyester resin film laminated on the inner surface of the can is greatly different, there is a point that lamination is difficult, so that the melting point of the polyester resin film coated on the inner surface of the can is preferably as close as possible.
[0043]
Furthermore, if the difference between the melting point (Tm-B) of the polyester resin film (B) in the upper layer is large, the interlayer adhesion between the polyester resin film (A) and the polyester resin film (B) is reduced, so that molding processing is performed. Ideally, poor adhesion sometimes occurs, and film misalignment may occur during lamination and further in the process of receiving subsequent heat, so ideally the polyester resin film (A) and the polyester resin film (B) should have the same resin composition, but if the resin composition is different for some reason, the difference in melting point between the polyester resin film (A) and the polyester resin film (B) should be 35 ° C. or less, preferably 30. It is desirable to make it below ℃.
[0044]
Furthermore, in this invention, the total thickness of the polyester resin film (A) coat | covered on a can outer surface and its upper polyester resin film (B) is 12-20 micrometers.
As described above, “galling” is more likely to occur as the film thickness is thicker. In this sense, the total thickness of the resin film on the outer surface of the can is 12 to 20 μm, which is optimal from the viewpoint of “galling” prevention effect and economy.
In the present invention, the polyester resin film on the outer surface of the can is amorphous. The reason for making it amorphous is the same as in the case of the inner film of the can described above, and is to give good workability to ironing, necking, and flange processing.
[0045]
In addition, as a method for producing a polyester resin film-coated laminated steel sheet, a resin film is supplied onto the surface of a heated steel sheet, coated with thermocompression bonding between rolls, and then immediately cooled to make it amorphous. , Extrude the molten resin, supply it to the steel sheet, coat it, immediately cool it down to make it amorphous, for example when applying a biaxially stretched film, once coated polyester resin, if necessary Furthermore, after heating to the melting point or more of the resin, a method of rapidly cooling to make it amorphous can be applied.
As a method for heating the steel sheet, a heating method such as a method of heating in an electric furnace, a method of heating with hot air, a method of heating by contacting with a heating roll, a method of induction heating at a high frequency can be adopted.
[0046]
Next, after processing the can body of the present invention, that is, the thickness reduction rate of the can wall portion will be described.
The degree of processing of the can of the present invention is 50 to 70% as a value obtained from the following formula (1).
Degree of processing (%) = {(Tb−Tw) / Tb} × 100 (1)
Tb: Plate thickness of the steel plate at the bottom of the can Tw: Plate thickness of the thinnest portion of the steel plate at the can wall
The degree of processing is in the range of DI cans currently manufactured from steel and aluminum materials, but it is not special, but if the degree of processing is less than 50%, it is due to processing of the coated polyester resin film on the inner and outer surfaces There is no damage and a good can body can be obtained. However, particularly when the original plate thickness of the steel plate (corresponding to the thickness of the steel plate at the bottom of the can) is large, the weight of the can becomes heavy and it is not economical.
[0047]
On the other hand, when the degree of processing exceeds 70%, the inner surface is inferior in the releasability of the polyester resin film and the punch, and it is often difficult to ensure the corrosion resistance due to scratches on the resin film. Moreover, the polyester resin film on the outer surface is also not preferable because it becomes easy to “galize”. Furthermore, especially when the original plate thickness of the steel plate (corresponding to the thickness of the steel plate at the bottom of the can) is thin, wrinkles may occur in the neck processing described later, or so-called flange cracks may occur in which the opening of the can body breaks during flange processing. It is not preferable. The limitation of the degree of processing is due to the above reason, and 50 to 70% is optimal.
[0048]
Next, a method for forming a can body according to the present invention will be described.
The can body of the present invention is a first step in which a laminated steel sheet coated with a polyester resin film is formed into a cup shape by drawing, and then the cup obtained in the first step is further drawn again, and the first step The second step of forming a cup with a smaller can diameter and a higher can height than the cup obtained in the above, and then the so-called ironing process in which the can wall portion of this cup is punched and passed between ironing dies, and the can wall is stretched thinly After performing the third step to be performed, then the fourth step for forming the dome of the can bottom, and then trimming the can body obtained in the fourth step to a normal can height, the diameter of the can opening is reduced. It consists of the 5th process which performs the flange processing required for tightening the neck processing and the canopy.
[0049]
In the molding method, the drawing process in the first step, the redrawing process in the second step, and the ironing process in the third step are all processes involving an increase or decrease in the plate thickness of the can wall. The dome forming process of the bottom of the process and the neck process / flange process of the fifth process are processes that do not substantially increase or decrease the plate thickness. Therefore, in the case where the seamless can is molded, the can after the third step becomes the final can.
The processing method for obtaining the can body of the present invention is not significantly different from the processing method for DI cans currently manufactured from steel materials and aluminum materials, but in order to sufficiently ensure the performance of the can body of the present invention. It is desirable to adopt the following means.
[0050]
That is, in the drawing process in the first step and the redrawing process in the second step, the temperature of the laminated steel plate or cup or the temperature of the mold is in the range from the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the coated resin film to the cold crystallization temperature (Tc). It is desirable to carry out in order to ensure the soundness of the resin film at the bottom corner of the cup.
Furthermore, the drawing process in the first process and the redrawing process in the second process add a stretch process or a light ironing process to reduce the load of the coated resin film in the ironing process performed in the third process. It is desirable to draw or redraw.
[0051]
In the ironing process of the third step, the temperature of the cup obtained by the redrawing process of the second step is set to 50 ° C. or less, and then the temperature of the processing mold is set to 100 ° C. or less. It is desirable that the temperature be kept below the glass transition temperature (Tg) because it suppresses the generation of defects due to crystallization of the resin film and the mold releasability is good.
For ironing, one-step ironing with one ironing die or multi-stage ironing with two or three can be applied, but considering the heat accumulation during processing, the one with fewer ironing dies should be used. A one-step ironing process in which a single ironing die is used is desirable.
[0052]
