HISTORY FACTS:
Aerosol Spray Cans
The concept
of an aerosol originated as early as 1790, when
self-pressurized carbonated beverages were
introduced in France. In 1837, a man called
Perpigna invented a soda siphon incorporating a
valve. In 1899, inventors Helbling and Pertsch
patented aerosols pressurized using methyl and
ethyl chloride as propellants.
On November 23, 1927, Norwegian engineer Erik Rotheim (also spelled Eric Rotheim) patented the first aerosol can and valve that could hold and dispense products and propellant systems. This was the forerunner of the modern aerosol can and valve. (In 1998, the Norwegian post office issued a stamp celebrating the Norwegian invention of the spraycan.)
During World War
II, the U.S. government funded research into a
portable way for service men to spray
malaria-carrying bugs. Department of Agriculture
researchers, Lyle Goodhue and William Sullivan,
developed a small aerosol can pressurized by a
liquefied gas (a fluorocarbon) in 1943. It was
their design that made products like hair spray
possible, along with the work of another inventor.
In 1953, Robert Abplanal invented a crimp-on valve
"for dispensing gases under pressure." This put the
manufacture of aerosol spray can products into high
gear. Abplanal had created the first clog-free
valve for spray cans. Abplanal also invented the "Aquasol"
or pump spray, which uses water-soluble
hydrocarbons as the propellant source. He realized
that the fluorocarbons in the older aerosol cans
damaged the ozone layer.

Paint in a Can
Spray paint
was invented by Edward Seymour in 1949 (the first
color was aluminum). Edward Seymour's wife Bonnie
suggested the use of an aerosol can filled with
paint. Edward Seymour founded Seymour of Sycamore,
Inc. of Chicago, USA, to manufacture his spray
paints.
