The cans must be coated inside with plastic because otherwise the aluminum would be the bigger problem and the beverages would corrode the cans.

So yes, there may be BPA in it, but this is only sparingly water soluble. Whether BPA or the other (required) contents of the can are the greater health problem, you can definitely answer to the unfavorable of the soft drinks.

Of course, why not if the ne layer is in typical coating thickness of a few 10 μm, then this is neither explicitly perceptible nor visible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8rBLJkECYc&ab_channel=Techtastic experiments3Dprint

Yes there can be bpa inside

However, you must note that plastic is required from the inside!

Are the cans coated inside with plastic?

Addendum and summary of the discussion and google, for those who do not unfold the comments.

Aludoses are usually epoxy coated. Without coating it is not possible because of the dangerous aluminum salts (previewed for aluminum foil!). So there’s a BPA leaving. There are even limit values for BPA exiting in cans. It has been understood that it is even forbidden in France.

Thank you for the question. Very interesting and hot discussed.

In aluminum, no hydrocarbons are present and cannot escape there and do not pass through with this wall thickness.

Yes, they are because Alu is chemically much too reactive to store any funny mixtures with lemon or phosphoric acid in it. Even water would probably get out of it.

Yeah, I was thinking about it. According to the Federal Institute for Risk Assessment, aluminium cannot be used in acid-containing foods. And is suspected to form Alzheimer’s causing salts. Then there’s some coating. Just clicked on the internet. I don’t know what coating it is, but at the first click I saw that there are EU limits for BPA in cans.

I’ve been researching this for work sometime. PET bottles contain the same fabric that the body has formed after an alcohol hangover and rebuilds or recovers. Both certainly not so healthy but acceptable. I think that’s the plasticizer, what else should that stuff be in there?

It would be interesting what alternatives exist in France and how harmful they are.

I just gagulated beverage cans are almost always covered with an epoxy paint inside, so with BPA. This is in the discussion, although there are EU limits. France therefore makes sense and fear of the questioner. Aluminium foil is probably not coated and therefore enjoyable with absolute caution.

More stringent standards are always allowed. What alu or BPA.

80 years ago there were only glass bottles, why should you make an extra glass layer on a glass bottle? Cans have been available for longer, but I don’t know how long they have been used for soft drinks.

The funny thing is that for Cola reusable bottles (which, by the way, should not contain plasticizers) even glass coatings are used, because they better prevent the refining of carbonic acid (so that the Cola remains longer sprudelig aka durable).

The hormone poison Bisphenol A is usually hidden in plastic, but it is also found in products in which it is not suspected: The BUND has proven the risky chemical in beverage cans from Sprite, Red Bull, Schöfferhofer, Faxe-Bier, Nescafé and other fillers.

At first I would say diffusion. And yes at heat the load is higher. And similar solves similar. But the BPA solution process exceeds my further chemical knowledge. It doesn’t matter how it dissolves and comes into our body. Epoxy painting of cans is in public discussion and therefore probably not without reason. One thing I can tell you precisely epoxy is a sour that does not come into contact with the body better. By the way, it has not even been researched with regard to corrosion, grinding, rubbing or aging, except for the filling/tooth replacement. But at least UV curing seems to end quite residue-free. Except of course, you operate limit surfing and expert advice manipulation or social overreaction.
