grease,paints,polishes,chemicals and many other products. Aerosol containers and caps and closures are also made from ETP.
TFS: TFS are most frequently used for can tops,screw and lug caps,snap and press-on closures and shalow-drawn food cans.
Excellent Corrosion Resistance | By selecting a proper coating weight, appropriate corrosion resistance is obtained against container contents. |
Excellent Paintability&Printability | Printing is beautifully finished using various lacquers and inks |
Excellent Solderability&Weldability | Tinplate is widely used for making various types of cans by soldering or welding |
Excellent Formability&Strength | By selecting a proper temper grade, appropriate formability is obtained for various applications as well as the required strength after forming |
Beautiful Appearance | Electrolytic ETP is characterized by its beautiful metalic luster. Products with various kinds of surface roughness are produced by selecting the surface finish of the substrate steel sheet. |
Excellent Paint Adhesion | TFS has excellent paint adhesion properties that far surpass those of ETP, allowing its use for making DRD cans and adhesive bonded cans. |
Excellent Heat Resistance | High-temperature baking causes neither discoloration nor deterioration in material properties. |
Excellent Resistance to Sulphur Blackening | The metalic choromium in TFS has excellent sulphide resistance property when canning protein-rich foodstuff such as fish. TFS compensates for the expensive sulphur resistant lacquer. |
Excellent Filiform Rust Resistance | TFS has a excellent under film corrosion resistance. |
Excellent Alkali Resistance | The coating in TFS is not amphoteric. Alkaline products such as detergents and dispersion colours can be packed in TFS with advantages. |
Appearance | Even when the same surface finish as ETP is applied to the substrate steel sheet, it provides the unique surface luster characteristic of metalic chromium. |
Corrosion Resistance | As it has excellent corrosion resistance after paining, it is generally used with both surfaces painted, it can also be used with the internal surface unpainted, depending on the contents. |
Solderability | TFS is not compatiblr with solidering |
Weldability | Although TFS can be welded when the metalic coating layer are removed, its weldablity is inferior to ETP. |
Coating Weights | Unlike the multiplicity of coating weights with tin, only one standardized chromium-coated product is manufactured. |
