As a steel-based material, tinplate sheet possesses the inherent strength and durability of steel. Compared to other packaging materials such as plastic and paper, tinplate sheet effectively protects canned foods from external physical impact or compression.

The protective effect of the tin layer is limited, especially when storing acidic foods, where there is a risk of tin corrosion. Therefore, during the production process, a protective coating or lining is often added to the inner surface of tinplate cans to further prevent direct contact between food and metal.

Tinplate packaging cans are widely used for beverages and liquid foods, especially products that require a good seal, such as carbonated beverages and beer. Tinplate packaging cans are not suitable for packaging foods with high acidity or high salt content, such as ketchup, fruit vinegar, and preserved foods.

Tinplate sheet offset printing relies on inks, which differ significantly from those used in other types of printing, such as screen printing and gravure. Due to the unique demands of tinplate sheet offset printing, inks must not only ensure precise transfer, but also exhibit strong adhesion to metal surfaces and abrasion resistance.

Step 1: Confirm that the can is completely empty. · Press the nozzle until the last drop is released. · Invert the nozzle to confirm that no gas or liquid is ejected. · If a pressurized propellant (such as butane) is present, handle with caution and avoid open flames. Step 2: Label or perforate the can (if permitted). Step 3: Dispose of the can in a metal recycling bin.

Tinplate itself is one of the top choices for food-grade packaging materials. 1. It's made from a low-carbon steel base plate electroplated with a tin layer, which effectively prevents rust from coming into contact with food. 2. If combined with a food-grade coating (such as epoxy phenolic or polyester coating), its safety fully meets international standards.

A standard three-piece tinplate aerosol can withstand pressures of 12-18 bar (176-260 psi), meeting the international DOT 2Q (180 psi burst pressure) standard. The reinforced design of the cone and dome directly determines whether the can can withstand the expansion pressures experienced during daily transportation, storage, and even high-temperature environments.

The cone and dome of an aerosol can are metal structural components that connect the can body and the nozzle. · The cone: A tapered structure that transitions from the larger diameter of the can body to the smaller diameter of the dome. · The dome: A slightly arched top structure that secures the valve and ensures stable internal pressure through sealing.

The three-piece aerosol can is the most common aerosol packaging format on the market. It consists of three main components: the can body, the cone (the conical top), and the dome (also known as the bottom). The can body is typically made of tinplate steel and joined by crimping or welding. The cone is attached to the top, and then combined with the dome to form a complete three-piece structure.

The can is typically filled with a liquid mixture of propellant and payload. When the liquid temperature rises, the gas pressure increases. The dome space provides a buffer zone, allowing the gas to expand without overpressure or severe deformation of the can.
