Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for applying organic coatings to metal surfaces, in which a chromate layer is previously generated on the metal surface by means of an aqueous chromating solution.
  • metal surfaces e.g. made of steel, aluminum and / or zinc with a conversion layer in order to increase the corrosion resistance and the adhesion of organic coatings.
  • conversion layers are phosphate layers, chromate layers, complex oxide layers and the like.
  • passively treat the conversion layer with a dilute chromium-containing rinse solution so that the corrosion resistance and the adhesion of the organic coating subsequently applied is further improved.
  • chrome-containing rinse solutions have been replaced to a certain extent by chrome-free rinse solutions in order to keep the treatment of the various waste water streams in metal treatment processes as simple as possible.
  • a typical example for the treatment of zinc surfaces, which are provided with a conversion layer, with aftertreatment by an aqueous chromium-containing rinse solution in order to increase the corrosion resistance and the paint adhesion is in US Pat. No. 3,501,352 described.
  • the conversion layer is generated immediately before the rinse solution is applied.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a method for applying organic coatings on metal surfaces, which can do without aftertreatment with chrome-containing rinse solutions, works simply and economically, leads to products with high corrosion resistance and high adhesion of the organic coating and permits subsequent treatments without the organic coating breaks or peels off.
  • the object is achieved by designing the method of the type mentioned at the outset in accordance with the invention in such a way that a film of a chromating solution which contains chromium (VI) ions, zinc ions and fluoride ions in amounts sufficient for layer formation is applied to the clean metal surface Film dries and immediately afterwards the organic coating is applied.

If desired, the entry of Chromium (III) ions via the halides including chromium fluoride or mixtures thereof. Care must be taken to ensure that individual components of the components of the added compounds are compatible.
  • a particularly suitable source of the chromium content of the chromating solution is a chromium chromate compound, the production of which is described in US Pat. No. 3,501,352.
  • various reducing agents are added to a solution of chromic acid in water, which reduce chromium (VI) to chromium (III).

  • the chromium content in the working chromating solution can be kept constant at approx. 6 g / l.
  • the chromium content of the chromating solution consists of at least 50% by weight chromium (VI).

  • the fluoride can also be introduced as zinc fluoride, whereby the zinc is added at the same time.
  • a particularly suitable fluoride compound is hydrofluoric acid. It has been found that simple fluorides, e.g. of the aforementioned type are more expedient than complex fluorides, such as fluorosilicate or fluoroborate.
  • the chromating solution contains hydrogen ions in order to adjust it to a pH value in the acidic range. It is particularly advantageous to apply a film of a chromating solution to the metal surface, the pH of which is in the range from 2 to 4.5. A typical pH value is approx. 3. The most favorable pH value depends to a certain extent on the concentration of the components of the chromating solution, on the temperature at which the chromating solution is used, and on the duration of the contact between the liquid film and zu treating metal. For iron metal surfaces e.g. good results are achieved in the pH range from 2.5 to 3.5.
