Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of performance detection of metal packaging materials, and specifically relates to a method for detecting the brittle fracture property of coated iron sheets. Background Art

[0002] Coated iron used in the field of metal packaging is a packaging material composed of a steel plate with a thickness in the range of 0.13 mm - 0.6 mm and a film with a thickness in the range of 12 μm - 25 μm, which combines the dual performance advantages of metal and plastic. Since the plastic film has a higher elongation at break than the coating, the coated iron has good deep drawing performance and is usually used as a substitute for painted iron in metal packaging fields such as food, beverage, and chemical industry.

[0003] Although coated iron products have many performance advantages compared to painted iron, they also bring troubles when applied to can / make lid production. For example, in processes such as stamping and trimming where the coated iron needs to be cut, if the die cutting edge is not sharp, or the die design uses a pulling break rather than a cutting method, it is very easy to cause the situation where the film is stretched and drawn at the iron fracture position. This incomplete fracture of the film of the coated iron will cause the film to remain at the cut position of the can / make lid finished product, affecting the efficiency of making lid / can, damaging the die, and even bringing foreign matter pollution to the contents.

[0004] Currently, national standards such as GB / T 40871-2021 "Plastic Film Thermally Clad Steel Plate and Strip", GB / T 41899-2022 "General Rules for the Quality of Coated Tin or Chromium Plated Thin Steel Sheets for Food Containers", and GB / T 43951-2024 "General Rules for the Quality of Coated Iron and Coated Aluminum for Food Containers" have been successively formulated for the detection and evaluation methods and product standards of metal packaging materials containing coating layers or film layers. However, there is no method in these standards to detect whether the coated iron has such insufficient brittle fracture property. It can only be known through the actual operation of can / make lid manufacturers, which is a post-detection method. By this time, the coated iron has often been mass-produced, which brings great obstacles to the popularization and application of coated iron in the downstream. Summary of the Invention

[0029] In order to further explain the technical solution of the present invention, the following will be elaborated in detail through specific embodiments.

[0030] The present invention provides a method for detecting the brittle fracture property of coated iron sheets, including: fixing a coated iron flat plate sample with a fixture, pressing a hemispherical die into the coated iron sheet until the iron cracks, the diameter of the hemispherical die is 18 - 22 mm, and the hemispherical die is pressed into the coated iron at a speed greater than 0.1 mm / s by a driving device to cause the coated iron to deform until the iron cracks by more than 5 mm; measuring the ratio of the length of the film extending out of the iron edge at the iron crack position to the total crack length, and of course, the ratio of the area extending out of the iron edge to the total crack area can also be used, which is not limited herein; when the ratio of the length of the film extending out of the iron edge at the iron crack position to the total crack length is greater than or equal to 0.8, the detection of the brittle fracture property of the coated iron sheet is: unqualified;

[0031] The driving device is a cupping machine a, and an automatic feeding and positioning structure 1 is installed outside the placement end of the cupping machine a;

[0032] By directly pressing a hemispherical mold into the coated iron sheet until the iron cracks, and judging whether the coated iron will produce defects such as being stretched at the cut during the subsequent can - making / cover - making process by measuring the ratio of the length of the film extending out of the iron edge at the iron crack position to the total crack length, there is no need to actually make cans / covers for judgment, providing a simple, rapid and reliable detection method for the brittle fracture property of the coated iron flat plate sample;

[0033] Take a flat sample of coated iron with a thickness of 0.28 mm. The A side is coated with a 15-μm polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film, and the B side is coated with a 19-μm PET film. To evaluate the brittle fracture of the coated iron, take a sample of coated iron sheet with a length of 50 mm and a width of 140 mm, clamp it in a fixture, and press it from the A side into the B side with a hemispherical punch with a diameter of 20 mm at a pressing speed of 0.2 mm / s. Stop when the coated iron cracks at the top of the hemisphere and the crack length exceeds 5 mm, and measure the ratio between the length of the film stretched on the iron and the total length of the iron crack.

[0034] Example 1:

[0035] Method for determining whether wire drawing defects will occur during the subsequent pipe making / cover making process of coated iron sheets:

[0036] Take a sample of the flat coated iron plate, cut the flat coated iron plate sample into a circular sample with a diameter of 50 mm, place the test surface on the Erichsen cupping machine a, and set the Erichsen cupping machine a to press into the sample at multiple points at a speed of 0.2 mm / s - 0.8 mm / s. The cupping crack length is 8 - 12 mm, measure r and L, and calculate W:

[0037] r = the length of the iron occupied by the film elongation

[0038] L = the total length of the iron crack

[0039] W = r / L

[0040] If W ≥ 0.8, it is determined as unqualified.

[0041] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effect of Example 2 is that by simulating the adhesion of the film at the cut when the iron cracks during the can making / cover making process of coated iron through cupping on a flat plate, and judging whether wire drawing defects will occur during the subsequent can making / cover making process of coated iron by the bonding area of the film, that is, whether the brittle fracture is qualified, without the need to actually make cans / covers for judgment, providing a reliable detection method for the factory inspection of coated iron products.

[0042] Example 2:

[0043] Take a flat sample of coated iron with a thickness of 0.14 mm. The A side is coated with a 19-μm polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film, and the B side is coated with a 12-μm PET film. The sample size is 50 mm in length and 70 mm in width. Clamp it in a fixture, use a hemispherical die with a diameter of 18 mm, and press it from the B side of the sample into the A side at a speed of 0.8 mm / s until the iron deformation crack length reaches 5 mm and then stop. Measure r and L, and calculate W:

[0044] r = the length of the iron occupied by the film elongation

[0045] L = the total length of the iron crack

[0046] Calculate W = r / L

[0047] If W ≥ 0.8, it is determined as unqualified.

[0048] The problem to be solved in the third embodiment is how to simulate the followability of the film and iron cracking after die stamping during can / mouthpiece making in the state of a coated iron flat sample. Since the film of coated iron usually has a thickness of more than 12 μm to ensure the barrier performance, and the film is tightly attached to the iron surface. When die stamping, the upper and lower dies make relative movements on both sides of the coated iron, causing the iron to be sheared and fractured, and the film fractures along with the iron. At this time, the film will not elongate at the fracture surface of the iron. However, if the cutting edge of a certain tool of the die becomes blunt during long-term use, or the die is severely worn due to long-term use, or the clearance between the upper and lower dies is too large, it will cause the shear clearance between the die and the material to be too wide. The film may elongate along the iron crack under the action of the shear force, resulting in the edge of the film exceeding the edge of the iron and showing the phenomenon of film drawing in the final product. This situation is not allowed in the food packaging field because it will involve foreign matter contamination and also cause great trouble to subsequent processing.

[0049] In the second embodiment, a hemispherical die head is pressed into the coated iron until the iron is deformed and cracked. At this time, the film is not cut by the shear force but torn. In this case, observing the synchronization of the film and iron fracture can reflect the fracture situation of the film under the condition of a dull die during actual stamping. This method is simple and easy to operate, and can effectively reflect the possible situation of coated iron wire drawing during the stamping process in the state of the coated iron being a flat plate.

[0050] In this method, the speed of the cupping is not strictly limited because its purpose is to fracture the iron, but maintaining a uniform speed will make the result judgment more accurate. This method is applicable to the evaluation of various samples of coated iron for current metal packaging.

[0054] Among them, there are two groups of sliding grooves 17 in total, and the two groups of sliding grooves 17 are arranged oppositely, so that the sliding of the sample plate 14 is more stable.

[0055] Among them, an inclined limiting groove is provided in the middle of the connecting plate 13, which can prevent the sample plate 14 from sliding excessively.

[0056] Turn on the driver 12 through the control panel b to make the rotating connecting plate 13 rotate, thereby pushing the sample plate 14 to move in the sliding groove 17, and then push the sample plate 14 to the placing end of the coated iron flat sample of the Erichsen machine a. Insert the coated iron into the sliding groove 17 and then into the sample opening 15, and then clamp the coated iron in the sample opening 15 through the pressure pad 16. Turn on the driver 12 and the rotating connecting plate 13 to slide the sample plate 14 to the left, and move the coated iron flat sample into the Erichsen machine a, so as to realize the automatic positioning and placing of the sample and automatic discharging, further strengthen the automation of the Erichsen test processing, and improve the efficiency of subsequent multiple comparative tests of the coated iron.
