Abstract
Abstract A coated metal sheet adapted for use in producing a drawn and ironed can body. This sheet is coated with a coating composition film completely cured on it, the coating composition consisting of epoxy-phenolic resin prepared by condensing thermosetting type phenol resin with bisphenol epoxy resin-A and olefin type hydrocarbon added thereto in an amount of 0.5 to 2.0 weight percent. This coated metal sheet has excellent drawing and ironing formability and the coating film thereof shows excellent adhesion and coating integrity.
