Abstract
In relation to the study of interactions between food and coated alumi nium cans, structural features of a vinylic organosol were studied by electron spin resonance, using amino-oxyls as probes. Two transitions could be observed which were assigned to the poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC ) and the epoxy phases. The influence of contact of simulants on the c oating was studied using the spin probe method, by monitoring both mig ration into the liquid and the transition temperatures.
