Abstract

麻豆视频 Steel has developed and commercialized a new PET-laminated tin free steel (TFS) sheet for food cans, “UNIVERSAL BRITE^®” Type F, which satisfied the performance requirements for food cans and is also environment- friendly. As features, “UNIVERSAL BRITE^®” Type F has an excellent balance of high formability and the content release property, which is required in food canning applications. An excellent content release property was realized by adding original surface-modifying additives to the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film to reduce the surface free energy of the PET film. Formability is markedly improved by applying a combination of a new homopolymer PET (homo-PET) film with an unique structure and an original laminating technology which inhibits PET crystallization.
