Abstract
ABSTRACTFrom the results of monitoring commercial test packs, synthetic test packs, and related laboratory experiments, the effects of dithiocarbamate fungicide residues on the shelf‐life of canned acid fruits in plain tin containers have been clearly demonstrated. It has been shown that the sulfur compounds resulting from the decomposition of the fungicides are the “active” species and, depending on the quantity of fungicide initially present, can control corrosive failure through pitting corrosion mechanisms. Steel chemistry has also been shown to be an important factor in these interactions as evidenced by the superior performance of aluminum deoxidized continuous cast containers when compared to containers produced from type L ingot steel.
