Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for compacting a component made of aluminum and / or an aluminum alloy, in particular a trim or functional part, with a very high corrosion resistance.
  • high-gloss, matt-gloss or silky-gloss trim parts which are made of aluminum sheets or Aluminiumprofile ⁇ .
  • the decorative surfaces are made by polishing and gloss anodizing. These possibly also colored surfaces are optically demanding and fulfill a high quality standard. These are surfaces which, in contrast to painted surfaces, have a completely uniform layer thickness and have neither ripples nor edge structures or edge alignments. They feel metallic and therefore of high quality, one speaks of the so-called "cool-touch”. They also have a good corrosion resistance through a combination of cold and heat compression processes.
  • European Patent Application EP 1 407 935 A1 discloses a process in which uncompressed glosseloxal surfaces are coated with a transparent "varnish" (Aluceram), ie the anodization process is followed by a varnishing process Ware before coating with these paints can not be transported and handled arbitrarily, since the capillary action of the open pores irreversible Dirt of the parts entails. Furthermore, only the visible sides are coated for procedural and cost reasons.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a method for compacting components made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy with high compaction quality, in particular good corrosion resistance. Another task is to accelerate the compaction process, thus increasing plant capacity and reducing unit costs.
  • the porous oxide layer obtained in the anodization which usually has a layer thickness of 2 to 30 microns, preferably a natural layer of 5 to 7 microns in the case of natural colored parts and a layer thickness of colored parts 12 to 15 microns, subjected to a known cold sealing step.
  • sealing products with nickel fluoride are preferably added.
  • a hot water compression is carried out.
  • This new hot water compression takes place at elevated temperatures and under application of overpressure in a closed chamber.
  • the temperatures l ying in a range above 100 0 C, preferably in a range above 100 ° C to 140 ° C.
  • the elevated temperature serves to increase the reaction rate.
  • the overpressure is preferably 1 bar to 2 bar.
  • Overpressures of more than 2 bar have the disadvantage that the system engineering effort by the high-acting forces increased disproportionately. The optimum operating pressure must be determined depending on the chemicals, substrates and layer thicknesses used.
  • the hot water compression can be carried out in different pH ranges.
  • the pHs are in the range of 6.0 to 7.0.
  • pH values in the basic range result in a silicate compaction because the dissolved silicates are basic.
  • the compression bath contains deionized water.
  • Known surfactants can be added.
  • glassy substances of one or more such alkali metal silicates can additionally be introduced into the cover layer. These glassy substances are preferably introduced as an aqueous solution in concentrations of 5 to 20 g / l in the hot water sealing bath. In this case, the so compacted parts show in a test in an acidic medium with a pH of 1, 0 for 10 minutes and a subsequent test in one alkaline medium at a pH of 13.5 for 10 minutes no attack.
  • the compression time is in a hot water compression according to the invention at 1 bar overpressure and temperatures of 12O 0 C per 1 micron layer thickness of the anodization between 0.5 to 3 min. Comparing this with the known hot water compression without pressure application, where the compaction time per 1 micron layer thickness of the anodization between 2 to 6 min, so the reduction of the compaction time is clear.
  • the inventive hot water compression is carried out in place of a known hot water compression.
  • the throughput times of components in an anodizing unit are reduced while at the same time the quality of the compaction is improved.
  • the compaction layer achieved by the method according to the invention is gapless and extends to the bottom of the pores of the anodized layer.
  • a very homogeneous sealing of the pores with alumina hydrate is achieved with the method according to the invention.
  • Hot water condensing does not or does not always achieve this goal, among other things due to process-inherent residual amounts of chemicals, eg acids from the glazing bath, which can collect in the capillary bottoms of the pores and which are not displaced but rather trapped in the layer.
  • the compression medium for example demineralized water or, when added with alkali silicates, also these are introduced into the pores in an improved manner by the pressure. Residual amounts of treatment substances deposited in the pores, which have not been removed by the various rinsing processes, are displaced or assimilated. Due to the possible increased process temperature above 100 ° C, the usual boiling point of the water at atmospheric pressure, the reaction rate and -completeness is also increased. Thus, the compression times of about 1 -3 min / microns can be achieved, which corresponds to a reduction of up to 50%. Comparative Example Ia:
  • An aluminum sheet piece measuring 40 ⁇ 100 ⁇ 2 mm made of A199.9MgO, 8 alloy is mechanically polished and chemically pretreated in a known manner. Subsequently, during a DC sulfuric acid treatment, an anodically generated oxide layer is formed on this piece. The layer thickness is 7 ⁇ m. After rinsing the component A, the porous oxide layer is subjected to a cold sealing step. Temperature: 28-32 ° C pH: 6.2-7.0. Sealing time: 4-8 min

  • the component B is additionally supplied to an electrolytic and adsorptive dyeing process. The layer thickness is 15 ⁇ m. After rinsing the component, the porous oxide layer is subjected to a cold sealing step as in Comparative Example 1.

  • Compression bath demineralized water
  • Embodiment 3 of the invention is a diagrammatic representation of Embodiment 3 of the invention.
  • Compression bath demineralized water
  • the porous ox id Mrs is compressed under pressure. Since water is known to have a higher boiling point under pressure than under normal conditions, the compression according to the invention can be carried out at temperatures of 100 ° C or higher, thereby increasing the reaction rate, whereby the reaction underlying the compaction proceeds faster and more complete.
  • the applied pressure results in an improved and more homogeneous compression. Any residues of treatment media remaining in the pores of the anodization layer are better displaced and thus do not represent local microscopic compaction errors on the finished product, which are weak points in terms of corrosion resistance.
  • the silicate Verdi rectification, the glassy substance added during the hot water compression is better introduced by the pressure and the temperature in the pores of the oxide layer and / or built up on the oxide layer.

  • the test is also the compo le of Comparative Examples Ib and 3, but not if previously a Abriebtest was made.
  • the alkaline test solution consists of a 0.317 molar solution, in which in 1 liter of solution
  • the components of the invention and the components of Comparative Examples I b and 3 show after 10 minutes no or wegpolierbare changes.
  • the anodized layer is not damaged at virtually unchanged layer thickness compared to the initial state.
