Definitions
- the present invention relates to a resin-coated seamless can, and more particularly to a resin-coated seamless can which exhibits excellent corrosion resistance and excellent shock resistance.
- a side seamless can there has been known a can which is produced by a following method. That is, a metal blank such as an aluminum plate, a tin plate or a tin-free steel plate is subjected to at least one drawing stage.
- the drawing stage is conducted between a drawing die and a punch to form a cylindrical cup comprising a barrel portion free of seams on a side surface thereof and a bottom portion integrally connected to the barrel portion which is also free of seams.
- the barrel portion may be subjected to ironing between an ironing punch and a die to reduce the thickness of the barrel portion (drawing/ironing working).
- Methods for coating an organic resin film onto the side seamless can include a method of applying an organic coating onto a formed can which is a common and widely used technique and, in addition, a method of laminating a resin film onto a metal blank before a can is formed. Further, in the production of a can by thinning drawing forming, the use of a metal sheet coated with polyester, vinyl organosol, epoxy, phenolic or acryl has been known in the art.
- thermoplastic resin film typically made of thermoplastic polyester onto a metal substrate For example, there have been adopted a method which laminates a biaxially stretched film onto a metal substrate using heat-bonding directly or by way of a primer layer for adhesion (for example, Japanese Laid-open Patent Publication 101930/1991, Japanese Laid-open Patent Publication 4229/1993, Japanese Laid-open Patent Publication 172556/1994) and a method which extrudes molten resin and coats the molten resin onto a metal substrate (Japanese Laid-open Patent Publication 86308/1998).

- a portion of the seamless can disposed at a can height of 70 to 90 mm is cut out as a sample having a square shape of 20 mm in the direction intersecting the rolling direction of the sheet material of the seamless can by 90°.
- Metal was dissolved by hydrochloric acid of 6N so as to isolate the inner film.
- the sample was dried under vacuum at least for 24 hours and then the density of the sample was measured at a temperature of 20 degree centigrade by a sink and float method using a density gradient tube. The measurement was performed after 1 hour elapsed from a point of time that the sample was charged into the density gradient tube.
- a cross cut was formed on an inner film on a can barrel upper portion of the seamless can, a cellophane tape (product of Nichiban Ltd, width: 24 mm) was laminated, and the cellophane tape was peeled off.
- the evaluation was performed by observing with naked eyes the peeled-off state of the polyester resin coating after peeling off the cellophane tape.
- a sample having a square shape of 3 cm ⁇ 3 cm was cut out from an inner surface of the can barrel upper portion of the seamless can. After forming a cross cut on the sample using a cutter, the sample was immersed into a 0.1% sodium chloride aqueous solution. After holding this condition at a temperature of 50 degree centigrade for a week, the corrosion state was observed.
- the weight is dropped in an erected form from a position 50 cm above the can-bottom-side terminal point. Thereafter, the can was subjected to a storing test at a temperature of 37 degree centigrade so that the state of the inner surface of the can after the lapse of one year was evaluated. Particularly, the corrosion of the can neck portion and the can bottom portion was observed and the result of the evaluation is shown in Table 2.
- a sample was cut out from a portion of a can barrel portion of a seamless can positioned 70 mm above a can bottom portion of the seamless can and a free film of an inner surface resin layer was isolated by dissolving metal. Then, the sample was subjected to drying under vacuum for at least 24 hours. Thereafter, the infrared absorption spectrums which are polarized in the directions perpendicular to and parallel to the can height direction of the isolated film were measured.
- the respective absorbances Iw( ⁇ ) and Iw( ⁇ ) at 973 cm ⁇ 1 were obtained, and then the infrared dichroic ratio R1 of the polyester resin layer at inner surface side of the can barrel portion was calculated by a following formula (1).
- a portion of the can barrel upper portion of the seamless can was cut out and a free film was isolated by dissolving metal. Then, the free film was subjected to drying under vacuum at least for 24 hours. Thereafter, the density of the sample was measured and the degree of the crystallization of a resin film was calculated by a density method and the calculated result was indicated.
- the resin-coated seamless can by performing the control such that the density of the polyester resin layer of the can inner surface side becomes equal to or more than 1.36 or by performing the control such that the infrared dichroic ratio (R1) of the polyester resin layer of the inner surface of the can barrel portion becomes equal to or more than 1.1, it is possible to produce the resin-coated seamless can having the excellent corrosion resistance, the excellent shock resistance and the excellent flavor resistance.
