m mllfi m 5 STEEL SHEET CAN PRODUCED FROM CHROMlUM-COATED STEEL PLATE This invention relates to a can produced from a steel plate having a chromium-coated layer on its surface. More specifically, the invention relates to a can produced from a steel plate having a three-layered anticorrosive chromium coating or one further having an organic coating on the chromium coating.
Enameled or lacquered cans made of steel plate have come into use as cans for foods, drinks and other products that require corrosion resistance.
Chromium plated steel sheets are useful for producing coated cans because of good adhesion of the plated layer with organic coating, and are also suitable for coating with a transparent lacquer because of their good appearance. However, the provision ofa metallic chromium layer only can not lead to the prevention of cracks or pin holes.
With a view to overcoming this difficulty, Japanese Pat. No. 6323/71, for example, proposed steel sheets coated with a thin layer of metallic chromium plating and a top coating of hydrated chromium oxide. The steel sheet coated with the two layers has the defect that the adhesion between the metallic chromium layer and the hydrated chromium oxide layer is not satisfactory, and the fabricability of the steel sheet, such as deep drawing or the bending of the seam portion of the can body, is insufficient, and cracks tend to occur.
It is an object of this invention to provide a crack-free or pin hole-free can, especially a can suitable for coating, and a coated can, wherein a layer of hydrated chromium oxide and a layer of metallic chromium adhered to each other with good bonding strength.
Another object of this invention is to provide a can and a coated can both having superior corrosion resistance.
These objects of this invention can be achieved by adhering a layer of metallic chromium intimately to a layer of hydrated chromium oxide through a layer of crystalline chromium oxide. According to this invention, there is provided a can at least a part of which is made of a steel plate having on its surface a layer of metallic chromium coating, a layer of crystalline chromium oxide coating and a layer of non-crystalline hydrated chromium oxide coating in this order beginning with the surface of the steel sheet, or a steel plate having on its surface these three layers and further a fourth topcoat layer of organic coating.
The invention will be described below by reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing one example of a can in accordance with this invention; and
FIG. 2 is a schematic view of the section of the coated layers in this invention.
The can of this invention consists of a main body 1, a can lid 2 and double seams 3 formed between the flange of the main can body and the end portion of the can. The main body 1 includes a side seam portion 4 formed by bonding both side edges of a rectangular metal blank or welding them in a superposed state, or by means of a hook seam. Instead of forming the upper and lower double seam portion 3 on the main body 1, one of the main body 1 and the lid 2 may be formed continuously in the case of, for example, deep drawn can or deep drawn and ironed can. In this case, the main body part 1 generally does not have a side seam.
A lid made of an aluminum sheet having a known opener and a score cut enable to open the can easily at the time of drinking or taking out of the contents may be formed at one or both of the can lids.
ln the can of this invention, as shown in FIG. 2, the main body portion 1 is composed ofa steel sheet having a metallic chromium layer 6, a crystalline chromium oxide layer 7 and a non-crystalline hydrated chromium oxide layer 8 formed on the surface of the steel sheet in this order starting from the surface. If desired. this three-layered coating may be coated only on one surface of the base steel plate.
In another aspect of this invention, an organic coating layer 9 is further formed on the above three-layered coating.
The three-layered or four-layered coating may be formed on a blank steel sheet either before or after making the blank into a can body.
The chromium coated steel sheet that constitutes the can of this invention can be produced by various methods, and some of them will be illustrated below. Of course, the invention is not limited to these examples.
1. The chromium coated steel sheet is obtained cathodically in an electrolyte consisting of chromic acid (CrO as a main component, and S0,, and HS as catalyst, whereby three layers can be deposited simultaneously with good efficiency. A conventional electrolyte containing 5 g/] to 300 g/l of chromic acid and 0.05 g/l to 5 g/l of sulfuric acid for electrolytic chromic acid treatment may be used by adding 0.1 g/l to 10 g/l, calculated as HS, of a compound capable of generating HS such as NaHS or KHS.
2. The chromium coated steel sheet is obtained cathodically under the same electrolysis conditions for conventional electrolytic chromic acid treatment except that the pH of the electrolyte at a point about 1 mm apart from the steel sheet as the cathode is adjusted to at least 5.5. The pH adjustment can be performed by controlling the stirring condition of the electrolyte in the case of batch treatment. In this method, the electrolytic solution containing HS mentioned in (1) above may be used.
3. The three-layered chromium coated steel sheet is obtained in the following manner: Non-crystalline hydrated chromium oxide layer of a chromium coated steel sheet having a non-crystalline hydrated chromium oxide layer on a metallic chromium layer is converted to crystalline chromium oxide by aging. Then, a coating of non-crystalline hydrated chromium oxide is formed on the crystalline chromium oxide layer by a conventional chromate treatment.
4. A crystalline chromium oxide coating is formed on a chromium plated steel sheet by oxidation in the vapor phase, and then by a conventional chromate treatment, a non-crystalline coating is formed.
Another can of this invention can be produced by using the chromium coated steel sheet coated with a thermocurable resin enamel such as a phenolic resin, urea resin, epoxy resin or a mixture of these, a thermoplastic resin enamel such as a vinyl chloride resin, acrylic resin, or a vinyl chloride/vinyl acetate copolymer, or a thermoplastic resin such as polyethylene, polypropylene or linear polyester on the desired part of the three-layered coating. These organic coatings may be applied by roller coating, spray coating, powder coating, fusing, etc. Or the above organic coatings may be applied to the desired part of a can made from a steel sheet having the above three-layered coating.
The amount per unit area of each of the layers on the steel plate that constitutes the can of this invention is not particularly restricted. Preferably, however, the amount of the metallic chromium layer is 0.1 to 3 mg/dm the amount of the crystalline chromium oxide layer is 0.01 to 0.2 mg/dm and that amount of the non-crystalline hydrated chromium oxide layer is 0.05 to 0.5 mg/dm all calculated as chromium. Optimum results can be obtained when the amount of the metallic chromium layer, the crystalline chromium oxide layer, and the non-crystalline hydrated chromium oxide layer are 0.3 to 1.8 mg/dm 0.03 to 0.15 mg/dm and 0.1 to 0.3 mg/dm respectively, calculated as chromium.
The composition of each of the coating layers of the can of this invention can be identified by various methods. For example, the outermost surface of the coated steel sheet can be identified clearly as a non-crystalline coating by a reflection electron diffraction. This noncrystalline hydrated chromium oxide coating is removed by dissolving it in accordance with a well known method of immersing in concentrated hot alkali. The surface of the coated steel sheet after removal of the non-crystalline hydrated chromium oxide coating is fixed with a carbon film, and the steel sheet and the metallic chromium on the opposite side are then dissolved completely in a solution of. bromine in anhydrous methyl alcohol. An electron diffraction of the remaining layer shows that this layer consists of crystalline chromium oxide present uniformly, and only oxygen and chromium were detected for this layer by electron probe X-ray microanalysis.
Then, from another test piece, the base steel is removed by dissolving with nitric acid, and the surface of the coated layer on the side of the removed steel sheet is tested by reflection electron diffraction, and it is ascertained that the layer adjacent to the steel sheet is a metallic chromium layer.
The amount per unit area of the coated layer of the can of this invention is measured by the following method.
I. The X-ray intensity la of chromium is measured with respect to the entire sample by an X-ray fluorescence analysis. The non-crystalline hydrated chromium oxide layer is removed by the same method as mentioned above, and the X-ray intensity lb of the remain ing part is measured by an X-ray fluorescence analysis. The amount per unit area of the non-crystalline hydrated chromium oxide layer can be calculated from the difference between the X-ray intensity Ia and the X-ray intensity lb.
2. The remaining part after removal of the noncrystalline hydrated chromium oxide in 1 above is anodically dissolved in an alkaline solution galvanostatically leaving only the base steel. The X-ray intensity lc of chromium is measured by an X-ray fluorescence analysis on the remaining base steel. The combined amount per unit area of the crystalline chromium oxide layer and the metallic chromium layer can be obtained by calculation from the difference between the X-ray intensity Ib and the X-ray intensity of the base steel.
3. The non-crystalline hydrated chromium oxide is removed from the sample using concentrated hot alkali and further the steel sheet and the metallic chromium layer are removed in a solutionof bromine in anhydrous methyl alcohol. The X-ray intensity ofchromium is measured by an electron probe X-ray microanalyzer with respect to the remaining crystalline chromium oxide layer. The amount per unit area of the crystalline chromium oxide can be obtained by calculation from the measured X-ray intensity.
4. The amount per unit area of the metallic chromium layer can be determined from the difference between the combined amount per unit area of the crystalline chromium oxide layer and the metallic chromium layer determined in (2) above and that of the crystalline chromium oxide layer.
The amounts per unit area of the coated layers that can be measured by the abovedescribed procedure are obtained as chromium.
The can of this invention is free from pin holes, and the adhesion between the coated layer and the base steel sheet and between the adjacent coated layers is extremely good. In the production of cans, the coated layers have good resistance to cracks. Also, the cans of this invention have far superior resistance to corrosion to cans obtained from conventional chromium-coated steel sheets.
The can of this invention can be used without organic coating, but is especially suitable for use with organic coating, that is another aspect of this invention.
The following examples illustrate the advantages of this invention specifically.
