Abstract:
A multi-coat coating system having an undercoat composition and an overcoat composition, wherein the undercoat, overcoat or both the undercoat and overcoat contain a polymer having segments of a specified formula and are substantially free of polyhydric phenols having estrogenic activity greater than or equal to that of bisphenol S. The coating system is suitable for use on a food-contact surface of food or beverage containers.
Abstract:
A polymer and coating composition containing the polymer are provided that are useful in coating applications such as, for example, food or beverage packaging containers. The polymer preferably includes a backbone having one or more polycyclic groups. In one embodiment, the polymer is a polyester and, more preferably, a polyester-urethane polymer. In one embodiment, the one or more polycyclic groups is a tricyclic or higher group.
Abstract:
Dental materials may be made from polyhydric phenols that are non-genotoxic and exhibit estrogenic activity less than that of bisphenol S, while exhibiting properties such as strength and flexibility comparable to those of conventional BPA-derived dental materials.
Abstract:
The disclosure provides a functionalized polymer for use in coating compositions and a method for making the functionalized polymer. In some embodiments, the functionalized polymer is a water-dispersible polymer, more preferably a water-dispersible polyester polymer, having one or more side groups including one or more salt groups. Packaging containers (e.g., food or beverage cans) comprising the functionalized polymer and methods of making such containers are also provided.
Abstract:
A liquid polymeric coating composition that upon application to a substrate, such as a coil substrate, preferably does not exhibit the edge build and edge blistering that commonly occurs with conventional liquid polymeric coating compositions. In some embodiments, the liquid polymeric coating composition is modified by tailoring the surface tension, the openness of the coating composition as indicated by the modulus of elasticity, or a combination thereof to reduce edge build and edge blistering.
Abstract:
This invention provides a polymer that is useful in a variety of applications, including as a binder polymer of a coating composition, and especially a packaging coating composition. Packaging articles (e.g., containers) comprising the polymer and methods of making such packaging articles are also provided.
Abstract:
This invention provides a polymer, which is preferably a polyether polymer, for use in coating compositions. Containers comprising the polymer and methods of making such containers are also provided. The invention further provides powder coating compositions including the polymer, which have utility in a variety of coating end uses, including, for example, valve and pipe coatings.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a liquid inside spray coating composition for food or beverage cans, the composition comprising an emulsion polymerized latex polymer, that comprises the reaction product of an ethylenically unsaturated monomer component polymerized in the presence of an aqueous dispersion of a salt of an acid- or anhydride-functional polymer and an amine, wherein at least 20% by weight of the ethylenically unsaturated monomer component are selected from vinyl aromatic compounds. The invention also relates to a method of spray coating and to a food or beverage can prepared by the method according to the invention.
