For Great Britain, the limitation of tin cannot exceed 200mg/kg. (1992 No. 496)
It seem like only lead solders are prohibited under Sec 189.240 and EC No. 242/2004. Is it still have any others compounds or substances that prohibited in tin?

The cans are steel with a thin coating of tin on the inside, tin is resistant to corrosion but very expensive (and heavy!). I think some drinks cans are aluminium and I presume these aren't coated with tin as Aluminium is fairly corrosion resistant itself.
Dear Simon / All,
Interesting thread.
Hence the phrase "tin plate" = Thin sheet iron or steel coated with tin to prevent rusting, used especially to make cans and pots.
Try this - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tin_can
The changes in can design have a very complex history, fascinating timeline here -

The question of "tin can" vs aluminium can also looks interesting. Seems that, although there are considerable geographical variations, typically tinplate wins for food and aluminium for beverages. I guess this is due to a combination of parameters, eg cost, recycling, quality, whether the last one ever dominates, no idea. Any can people around ??
