Abstract

A three-piece resealable can for acidic liquid includes, a cylindrical can body member that includes a screw portion at one end; and a can bottom member that contacts the can body member so as to close an opening portion of the other end of the can body member. The can body member includes a cylindrical first steel sheet, Ni plating that is formed on an inner circumferential surface of the first steel sheet, a polyester film that is formed so as to be disposed on the outermost surface of the inner circumference of the can body member, and a chromate film that is formed between the first steel sheet and the polyester film. The can bottom member includes a second steel sheet, and Sn plating that is formed on the can body member side of the can bottom member.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A can main body for a three-piece resealable can for acidic liquid, comprising:
a cylindrical can body member that includes a screw portion at one end; and
a can bottom member that contacts the can body member so as to close an opening portion of the other end of the can body member,
wherein the can body member includes:
a cylindrical first steel sheet,
a Ni plating that is formed on an inner circumferential surface of the first steel sheet,
a polyester film that is formed so as to be disposed on an outermost surface of an inner circumference of the can body member, and
a chromate film that is formed between the first steel sheet and the polyester film, wherein an amount of the Ni plating is 10 to 1000 mg/m 2 , an amount of the chromate film is 2 to 30 mg/m 2 expressed in terms of Cr metal, and an amount of a metal plating which is closest to the outermost surface of the inner circumference of the can body member is 200 to 4000 mg/m 2 ,

wherein the can bottom member includes:
a second steel sheet, and
an Sn plating that is formed on the can body member side of the can bottom member, the Sn plating being on or above the second steel sheet,
wherein the Sn plating on or above the second steel sheet includes an Sn single metal plating in an amount of 2 to 20 g/m 2 ,

wherein a resistance between the can body member and the can bottom member is 1Ω or less, and
wherein a plating included in the can body member and a plating included in the can bottom member are different from each other.

2. The can main body for the three-piece resealable can for acidic liquid according to claim 1 ,
wherein an outermost surface on the can bottom member is the Sn plating formed on the can body member side.

3. The can main body for the three-piece resealable can for acidic liquid according to claim 1 ,
wherein the can bottom member further includes a chromate film which is formed on a surface of the Sn plating, an amount of the chromate film being 2 to 10 mg/m 2 expressed in terms of Cr metal, and an outermost surface of the can bottom member being the chromate film.

4. The can main body for the three-piece resealable can for acidic liquid according to claim 1 ,
wherein the Sn plating on or above the second steel sheet includes an alloyed Sn plating in an amount of 0.2 to 1.5 g/m 2 .

5. The can main body for the three-piece resealable can for acidic liquid according to claim 1 ,
wherein the can bottom member further includes a Ni plating in an amount of 10 to 200 mg/m 2 which is formed on a surface on the can body member side of the second steel sheet.

6. The can main body for the three-piece resealable can for acidic liquid according to claim 1 ,
wherein the amount of Sn single metal plating is 8 to 16 g/m 2 .

7. The can main body for the three-piece resealable can for acidic liquid according to claim 1 ,
wherein the amount of the Ni plating is 200 to 1000 mg/m 2 and the amount of the chromate film is 2 to 10 mg/m 2 expressed in terms of Cr metal.

8. The can main body for the three-piece resealable can for acidic liquid according to claim 1 ,
wherein the can body member further includes an Sn plating which is formed on a surface of the Ni plating, the Sn plating including an Sn single metal plating in 0.2 to 2 g/m 2 and an alloyed Sn plating, the amount of the Ni plating being 10 to 200 mg/m 2 , and the amount of the chromate film being 10 to 30 mg/m 2 .

9. The can main body for the three-piece resealable can for acidic liquid according to claim 1 ,
wherein the can body member further includes an adhesive layer between the chromate film and the polyester film.

10. The can main body for the three-piece resealable can for acidic liquid according to claim 9 ,
wherein the adhesive layer contains 100 to 3600 mg/m 2 of Sn metal particles having a mean particle diameter of 2 to 7 μm with respect to a surface area of the first steel sheet.

11. The can main body for the three-piece resealable can for acidic liquid according to claim 10 ,
wherein the mean particle diameter of the Sn metal particles is 3 to 6 μm.

12. The can main body for the three-piece resealable can for acidic liquid according to claim 10 ,
wherein the adhesive layer contains 300 to 2000 mg/m 2 of the Sn metal particles with respect to the surface area of the first steel sheet.

13. The can main body for the three-piece resealable can for acidic liquid according to claim 1 ,
wherein the resistance between the can body member and the can bottom member is 0.1Ω or less.

14. A three-piece resealable can for acidic liquid, comprising the can main body of claim 1 and a cap.
