  • Corrosion resistance of the aluminum Dl cans was examined by evaluating the extent of blackening after immersion of the treated can in boiling water for 30 minutes. Absence of blackening is the desired result.
  • Lubricity was evaluated based on the following test using the sliding tester depicted in Figures 1(A), (B), and (C). Three of the surface-treated aluminum Dl sample cans were placed on the horizontally positioned tiltable plate 1 in the sliding tester. Two of the cans, designated as 2a, were loaded with their bottom ends facing to the front. The remaining single can, designated as 2b, was loaded with its open end facing to the front. The tiltable plate 1 was then tilted at a constant rate of 3° of angle per sec ⁇ ond by the action of the motor 3. The coefficient of static friction was calculated from the angle of inclination, determined from the time required until at least one can fell off.
  • Paint adherence In order to evaluate the paint adherence, the surface of the treated can was coated with an epoxy-urea can paint to a paint film thick ⁇ ness of 5 to 7 micrometers, then baked for 4 minutes at 215 °C. Cellophane tape-peel testing was then carried out on a cross scribed in the evaluation sur ⁇ face using a knife cutter to determine primary adherence. The sample cans were subsequently immersed for 60 minutes in a boiling test solution with the composi- tion given below, after which cellophane tape-peel testing was again carried out to determine secondary adherence. The adherence was evaluated as the pres ⁇ ence/absence of paint film peeling.
