  • Patent number: 10508214
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a polyester coating composition used for forming a coating film of a coated metal plate, a metal container, a metal closure, etc. The coating composition has a crosslinking agent and a curing catalyst incorporated into a mixed polyester resin comprising a mixture of a polyester resin (A) having an acid value of 2 to 50 mg KOH/g and a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 35 to 100° C. and a polyester resin (B) having an acid value of 0 to 50 mg KOH/g and a glass transition temperature (Tg) of ?20 to 25° C. Thus, a coating composition excellent in resistance to embrittlement over time, corrosion resistance, scrape resistance, retort resistance, and blocking resistance can be provided.

  • Patent number: 10155880
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide an organic-resin-coated metal sheet for beverages and foods having retort blushing resistance and can manufacturability, a manufacturing method thereof, and a metal can and a can lid that are made by processing the organic-resin-coated metal sheet. An organic-resin-coated metal sheet of the present invention is an organic-resin-coated metal sheet in which an unstretched film is stacked on at least a single surface of a metal sheet, and is characterized in that the unstretched film is composed of a polyester-based resin composition obtained by blending copolymerized polyester (I) composed mainly of a polyethylene terephthalate-based resin with crystalline polyester (II) composed mainly of a polybutylene terephthalate-based resin with a mixing amount of the crystalline polyester (II) of 20 to 45 wt %.

  • Publication number: 20070110856
    Abstract: A packaging container for a microwave oven. Completion of heating of the container contents and automatic opening of the container can be easily recognized. This can be achieved without requiring a special member and complex steps, but by processing wrapping materials constructing the packaging container. Also provided is a packaging container for a microwave oven, where danger, including spilling of the contents of the container and burning by touching an opening section occurring in heating by a microwave oven, can be avoided. Further provided is a packaging container for a microwave oven, sealed by heat-sealing plastic films and having a steam vent seal section having a weakened section. The steam vent seal section has mark emerging means, and when the steam vent seal section is separated and opened, the means shows different surface- and back face-wrapping materials constituting the steam vent seal section, enabling recognition of opening.
