A process for productive an easy-open can lid made of a resin laminated
metal sheet comprising laminating a metal sheet or surface-treated metal
sheet on one or both surfaces thereof with a crystalline saturated
polyester resin film having a thickness of 10 to 100 .mu.m, an elongation
of at least 150%, a degree of crystallinity of not more than 10%, and a
heat of fusion of crystalline of not less than 10 joules/g, to form a
laminated metal sheet for an easy-open can, forming by a composite
cold-forming method a tear-along grooves of a residual thickness of not
more than 1/2 of the thickness of the material using top and bottom dies
of a die radius of 0.1 to 1.0 mm, then heat treating the crystalline
saturated polyester resin layer at the portion surrounding the tear-along
groove at a temperature of at least the crystallization starting
temperature and less than the melting point thereof and, also, an
easy-open can lid obtained by the same and a resin laminated metal sheet
used for the same.
