Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
176 words
A method for forming a uniform coating on metallic can insides from a coating composition which consists essentially of (1) a polar group-containing polyolefin prepared by graft copolymerizing a polyolefin with a carboxyl-containing unsaturated monomer in a grafting ratio of 0.01-6.0% by weight and (2) at least one hydrocarbon type solvent for the polyolefin, the polyolefin being dispersed in the solid particulate form in the solvent and the boiling point of the solvent being higher than the softening point of the polyolefin but not 50° C. higher than tha baking temperature of the coating of the polyolefin to be formed, comprising applying the coating composition to the metallic can insides to form thereon a coating thereof, heating the coating so formed to a baking temperature higher than the softening point of the polar-containing polyolefin but not 50° C. lower than the boiling point of the solvent to distil off the solvent and simultaneously melt the solid particles thereby forming a uniform melted coating and then cooling the thus formed melted coating to obtain the uniform coating.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
176 words
A method for forming a uniform coating on metallic can insides from a coating composition which consists essentially of (1) a polar group-containing polyolefin prepared by graft copolymerizing a polyolefin with a carboxyl-containing unsaturated monomer in a grafting ratio of 0.01-6.0% by weight and (2) at least one hydrocarbon type solvent for the polyolefin, the polyolefin being dispersed in the solid particulate form in the solvent and the boiling point of the solvent being higher than the softening point of the polyolefin but not 50° C. higher than tha baking temperature of the coating of the polyolefin to be formed, comprising applying the coating composition to the metallic can insides to form thereon a coating thereof, heating the coating so formed to a baking temperature higher than the softening point of the polar-containing polyolefin but not 50° C. lower than the boiling point of the solvent to distil off the solvent and simultaneously melt the solid particles thereby forming a uniform melted coating and then cooling the thus formed melted coating to obtain the uniform coating.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
69 words
A method according to claim 1, wherein the solvent is a mixed solvent consisting of at least one hydrocarbon type solvent having a boiling point higher than the softening point of the polyolefin but not 50° C. higher than the baking temperature of the coating of the polyolefin to be formed and at least one non-hydrocarbon type organic solvent in a ratio by weight of from 5/95 to 95/5.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
31 words
A method according to claim 1, wherein the carboxyl-containing unsaturated monomer is a member selected from the group consisting of maleic anhydride, maleic acid, fumaric acid, acrylic acid and methacrylic acid.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
14 words
A method according to claim 1, wherein said grafting ratio is 0.05-1.5% by weight.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
183 words
A method for forming a uniform coating on metallic can insides from a coating composition which consists essentially of (1) a polar group-containing polyolefin prepared by graft copolymerizing a polyolefin with a carboxyl-containing unsaturated monomer in a grafting ratio of 0.01-6.0% by weight, (2) wax and (3) at least one hydrocarbon type solvent for the polyolefin and wax, the polyolefin and wax being dispersed in the solid particulate form in the solvent, and the boiling point of the solvent being higher than the softening point of the polyolefin but not 50° C. higher than the baking temperature of the coating of the polyolefin to be formed, comprising applying the coating composition to the metallic can insides to form thereon a coating thereof, heating the coating so formed to a baking temperature higher than the softening point of the polar group-containing polyolefin but not 50° C. lower than the boiling point of the solvent to distil off the solvent and simultaneously melt the solid particles thereby forming a uniform melted coating and then cooling the thus formed melted coating to obtain the uniform coating.
Claim 7
Independent Claim
183 words
A method for forming a uniform coating on metallic can insides from a coating composition which consists essentially of (1) a polar group-containing polyolefin prepared by graft copolymerizing a polyolefin with a carboxyl-containing unsaturated monomer in a grafting ratio of 0.01-6.0% by weight, (2) wax and (3) at least one hydrocarbon type solvent for the polyolefin and wax, the polyolefin and wax being dispersed in the solid particulate form in the solvent, and the boiling point of the solvent being higher than the softening point of the polyolefin but not 50° C. higher than the baking temperature of the coating of the polyolefin to be formed, comprising applying the coating composition to the metallic can insides to form thereon a coating thereof, heating the coating so formed to a baking temperature higher than the softening point of the polar group-containing polyolefin but not 50° C. lower than the boiling point of the solvent to distil off the solvent and simultaneously melt the solid particles thereby forming a uniform melted coating and then cooling the thus formed melted coating to obtain the uniform coating.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
69 words

Claim 9
Dependent Claim
31 words
A method according to claim 5, wherein the carboxyl-containing unsaturated monomer is a member selected from the group consisting of maleic anhydride, maleic acid, fumaric acid, acrylic acid and methacrylic acid.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
18 words
A method according to claim 5, wherein the wax is one having a softening point of 50°-120° C.

Claim 12
Dependent Claim
14 words
A method according to claim 5, wherein said grafting ratio is 0.05-1.5% by weight.
