1.Structure of Electrolytic Tinplate of  High Quality for Metal Containers Description


Electrolytic Tinplate is a thin steel sheet coated by tin. It has an extremely beautiful metallic luster as well as excellent properties in corrosion resistance, solder ability, and weld ability.


2.Main Features of the Electrolytic Tinplate of  High Quality for Metal Containers


Electrolytic Tinplate undoubtedly enjoys the pride of place as a packaging medium especially for food. It owes its unique position to its "nine layer sandwich structure", each of which contributes to its eminence as a packing material. The steel base of electrolytic tinplate provides the necessary strength and formability for can fabrication. The tin-iron alloy layer provides the bond between the steel and free tin layer. The free tin layer is not only responsible for the attractive bright finish and ease of solderability but is also non-toxic- a factor of vital importance in food packaging!


Tinplate is also widely used for making all types of containers such as food cans, beverage cans, and artistic cans, tea cans, painting cans, chemical package cans and dry food package cans, metal printing etc. Its applications are not limited to containers; recently, electrolytic tinplate has also been used for making electrical machinery parts and many other products.

Q: Can tinplate be used for electrical enclosures?
Yes, tinplate can be used for electrical enclosures. Tinplate is a steel sheet coated with a thin layer of tin, providing corrosion resistance and durability. It can effectively protect electrical components from external elements and provide a safe enclosure.
Q: Can tinplate be used for medical or pharmaceutical packaging?
Yes, tinplate can be used for medical or pharmaceutical packaging. Tinplate is a type of steel coated with a thin layer of tin, which provides excellent protection against corrosion and contamination. It is durable, lightweight, and can be easily sterilized, making it suitable for packaging drugs, medical supplies, and other pharmaceutical products. Additionally, tinplate offers good barrier properties against moisture, oxygen, and light, ensuring the preservation and integrity of the packaged contents.
Q: What are the main differences between tinplate and tinplate laminates in terms of barrier properties?
Tinplate is a type of steel coated with a thin layer of tin, while tinplate laminates consist of tinplate combined with other materials such as plastic or paper. In terms of barrier properties, tinplate has a higher level of barrier protection against moisture, oxygen, and light compared to tinplate laminates. This is because tinplate provides a solid and impermeable barrier, whereas laminates may have lower barrier properties due to the presence of other materials. However, tinplate laminates can still offer sufficient barrier properties depending on the specific composition and application.
Q: Both tinplate and stainless steel have corrosion protection
Tinplate is common steel tin plating, tin coating is broken, later, because the tin is more corrosion resistant than iron, so iron will sooner corrosion. Mainly used for tins.
Q: Can tinplate be used for packaging luxury goods?
Yes, tinplate can be used for packaging luxury goods. Tinplate is a versatile material that offers both functionality and aesthetic appeal, making it suitable for high-end products. Its durability, resistance to corrosion, and ability to maintain product freshness and quality make it an excellent choice for luxury packaging. Additionally, tinplate can be easily decorated and customized with high-quality printing and embossing techniques to enhance the visual appeal and create a premium look for luxury goods.
Q: Can tinplate be painted or printed on?
Yes, tinplate can be painted or printed on.
Q: What are the typical production volumes for tinplate?
The typical production volumes for tinplate vary depending on the demand and market conditions, but it is estimated that global production of tinplate amounts to several million metric tons per year.
Q: What are the different types of tinplate coatings available?
There are several types of tinplate coatings available, including electrolytic tinplate (ETP), tin-free steel (TFS), and lacquered tinplate. ETP is the most common type and it provides excellent corrosion resistance and a shiny appearance. TFS, on the other hand, does not contain tin and is coated with a layer of chromium or chromium oxide, offering similar corrosion resistance as ETP. Lacquered tinplate is coated with a layer of lacquer, providing additional protection against corrosion and enhancing the appearance of the tinplate.
Q: How does tinplate perform in terms of light blocking?
Tinplate performs well in terms of light blocking due to its opaque nature, making it effective in blocking out light and preventing any potential damage or degradation that may be caused by exposure to light.
Q: How is tinplate made?
Tinplate is made by coating thin sheets of steel with a layer of tin through a process called electroplating. The steel sheets are first cleaned and then passed through an electrolyte bath containing tin salts. An electric current is then passed through the bath, causing the tin ions to bond with the steel surface, forming a uniform layer of tin. This tin coating provides corrosion resistance and enhances the appearance of the steel, making it suitable for various applications such as food and beverage packaging.
