A method of forming a coating on a food or beverage container, which includes spraying a coating composition onto an interior surface of the food or beverage container, where the coating composition includes a latex copolymer and a metal drier or crosslinking agent. The latex copolymer is a reaction product of monomers that include (a) one or more styrene-mimicking monomers containing one or more cyclic groups and one or more ethylenically-unsaturated groups, at least a portion of such styrene-mimicking monomers being polycyclic monomers containing ring unsaturation, and (b) one or more other ethylenically-unsaturated monomers. Preferably, the coating composition is substantially free of each of BPA, PVC, other halogenated monomers, and optionally styrene. The method may also include curing the sprayed coating composition, thereby providing the coating on the interior surface of the food or beverage container.
An inside spray coating composition for a food or beverage container, the composition comprising:
An interior coating disposed on a food or beverage container, the interior coating comprising a cured coating composition comprising a reaction product of ethylenically-unsaturated polycyclic monomers containing ring unsaturation and one or more other ethylenically-unsaturated monomers, wherein the polycyclic monomers containing ring unsaturation comprise norbornene (meth)acrylate, tricyclodecenyl (meth)acrylate, octahydronaphthalene (meth)acrylate, norbornene (meth)acrylamide, tricyclodecenyl (meth)acrylamide, octahydronaphthalene (meth)acrylamide, tricyclodecenyl vinyl acetate, norbornene vinyl acetate, octahydronaphthalene vinyl acetate, or a combination thereof.
An interior coating disposed on a food or beverage container, the interior coating comprising a cured coating composition prepared by:
