Tomato-Based Coating Eyed for The Inside of Cans, Food Packaging
Researchers from the Spain-based Instituto de Hortofruticultura Subtropical y Mediterránea "La Mayora" (IHSM-CSIC-UMA) and the Instituto de Ciencia de los Materiales de Sevilla (ICMS-CSIC-US) have created a lacquer coating derived from tomato pomace for application to the inner surface of metal food packaging and food and beverage cans. Steel and aluminum are the metals typically used for canned foods and beverages. However, the food corrodes the metal and thus contaminates the food. Currently, to protect against such corrosion, cans are typically coated with an adhesive resin called epoxy, a petroleum-based plastic featuring bisphenol A, which is more commonly known as BPA — an industrial chemical compound that protects food, but that also releases particles that impact human health.
