Various solutions for repairing and reinforcing containers are disclosed. Embodiments of the present invention provide patches or reinforcing members which may be conveniently and effectively adhered to a container to improve the structural integrity thereof, protect the contents of the container, and provide an aesthetically-pleasing repair/reinforcement of the container. A substantially-planar patch may be used to repair or reinforce a surface of a container, while patches for adhering to multiple surfaces of the container may be used to repair or reinforce edges or corners. The thickness of the patch may be substantially less than that of its other dimensions to provide a low-profile repair or reinforcement, thereby reducing subsequent damage to the container caused by snagging or catching the patch on external objects. Additionally, the adhesive may bond the patch to the container to reduce separation and withstand loadings imparted to the container. |

Water-borne or aqueous coating compositions which are especially suitable for use as bondable base coats and size coats in three piece, tin-free steel beverage containers comprise blends of an aqueous dispersion of an amine solubilized interpolymer with aldehyde condensation resins. The interpolymer is prepared in the absence of mercaptans, external surfactants and external dispersion stabilizers and is formed from substituted carboxylic acid amide units; ethylenically unsaturated acid units; hardening units from monomers such as styrene, vinyl toluene or alkyl methacrylate having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms and flexibilizing units from certain alkyl acrylates or methacrylates. The interpolymers are solubilized by neutralizing or partially neutralizing the acid units of the interpolymer with monomeric amines. Aldehyde condensation resins, such as phenol aldehyde resins, aminoplast resins or mixtures thereof are especially desirable. These compositions provide three piece beverage containers with cured base coats and size coats which exhibit excellent adhesion to both the tin-free steel metal and the adhesive employed in forming the container. In addition, the cured base coats and size coats formed from these compositions do not impart undesirable turbidity or taste characteristics to beverages packaged therein. |

Metal cans are welded by frictional treatment of the materials joined. The treatment is provided by a rapidly rotating smooth hard friction tool e.g. wheel contacting a surface of the metal above the join while the parts joined are held in pressure contact by independent pressure exerting means and/or by the wheel itself. In the formation of can side-seams the wheel and the can are relatively traversed and a longitudinal continuous side-seam is formed which in the case of metal to metal joints is metallurgically homogeneous and may be characterized in that no signs of melting of the base metal are visible at the welded interfaces. |

A coated metallic sheet adapted for use in making a can for foodstuff or other container. This sheet can be made by coating, upon a material sheet, a composition of a resol-type thermosetting phenolformaldehyde resin and a bisphenol "A" type epoxy resin. In said phenol-formaldehyde resin, the ratio by weight of orthocresol to phenol is between 60:40 and 10:90. Said epoxy resin has a mean molecular weight of 800 or more and is used in an amount of 0.2 to 1.5 part by weight per 1 part by weight of said phenol-formaldehyde resin in said composition. This composition used for the sheet displays an excellent adhesiveness particularly with respective to the use of a polyamide type adhesive. |
