PROCESS PRODUCT FOB YBEVENTIJG DISOOLOEATIOU` OI CANNE!) TUOI-Tl.k
lo Brewingu The invention relates to new and useful improvements in :i process for preventing discoloration of canned foods, and is a continuance in part. of pplicntion Serial No. 96.709, filed by me February 25, 1926.
It is e well known fact that in the processin;v of many canned foods, there are formed sulphur compounds which occasionally react either during processing or subsequent there to, with tin plate metal containers forming dark colored compounds, which are objectionable in appearance.
The present,` invention is directed to a process whereby the formation of such darliy colored compoundsy is prevented.
Through u series of experiments of processing' foods in tin cans, it has been found that if an insoluble metallic compound, such esk zinc oxide or zinc phosphate or a mixture of the two or other insoluble oxides or salts of metals whichdo not form objectionable colored sulphides, is thoroughly incorporated with the ingredients of a protectivecoating of lacquer and homogeneously distributed through said lacquer prior to the application of the lacquer to the tin plate,V so that said compound becomes sy component part of the lacquer, discoloration of the food packed in such cans is avoided.' The inner surface of the body and ends should both cirry the lacquer to inhibit;` sulphide disjloretion ofthe cans or contents.
In carrying outv thel invention, an insoluble metallic com-pound of the character specied is properly mixed with the ingredients forming the lacquer which is to be coated on the metal. The quantity` of zinc oxide, for example, mixed with the lacquer may be varied Within such limits as to produce a lacquer on the tin plate carrying quantities of metallic zinc varying from one-one hundredth of a milligram'to two: milligrams per squareA inch of lacquered surice.
The following mixtures have proved practical in actual use and are detailed below, it being' distinctly understood that this innen tion not limited to the specic mixtures or conditions shown:
1.. (fumer,` 10 pai-tsl and zinc: oxide, 5 parte...
2..` Gunnar, ];8 parts* guita-perche, 4E parts,L and zinc oxide,.11 parts.,
3. Cumul', I8 parte', chicle gum., `4e ports,
I und zinc oxide, 11
Application fled latch 13, im. Serial lo. 94,598.
4. Carnauba wax, 1 part; chicle gum, 1 part and zdinc oxide,1 part.
In maklng u these mixtures, the cumar', chicle gum, an gutta-percha were dissolved in about five parts by weights of carbon tetrachlonde or in some 'cases a little more. A fter complete solution, the zinc oxide was stirred in, and, the mixture was passed through a paint mill twice in ordcrito grind the zinc oxide linely enough to keep it in sus nslon. Carbon tetrachloride was then ad ed in sutlicient amount to reduce the total solids present (including gums, waxes and zinc oxide) to five per cent. The mixture was applied to the metal ofthe cans.
lvhen the insoluble metallic compound is lncorpornted inthe lacquer after the manner above described, il;` becomes permanently embodied in the lacquer and will be held in place o n the inside of the container during processing and subsequently thereto.
v I have found by actual ex rience that the lacquers which can be de ned as baking lacquers stand u the best and give the most.v
satisfactory res ts. It is customary to bake the lacquer with the metallic compound therein on the metal adapted to form the inner surface of the can. Where the cans are .stacked on end, it has also often been proved 1n practice that it is not necessar to apply this lacquer bearing the insolub e metallic compound over the entire inner surface of the :metal container, but if the ends of the container are thus coated, discoloration is avoided. y
Magnesium powder, zinc. dust and slumi num powder, either" sin ly or in combination, can bemixed with t e lacquer and herev been found under "certain conditions to well serve the purpose of preventing discoloration, since these metals prevent forms@ tion of ohjcctionably colored compoundsb The lacquer may `ihnen be 4prepared in the ord-inaqhway and the sheets coated there with. making the entire conte-incr; or ma be used in making the ends or bodies l of the container.
