Definitions

  • the application of the treatment solutions is carried out at a spray-pressure of about 0.5-1.5 atmospheres gauge.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a spray-process for phosphating surfaces of objects made of iron or steel which obviates a subsequent passivation treatment of the phosphated surfaces with solutions containing chromic acid or chromates.
  • the high-pressure spray process according to the present invention produces satisfactory phosphate coatings over the entire indicated pressure range. Particularly favorable results with respect to stability against fly-rust and coating structure are obtained if the acid solutions of phosphates of film forming metals are sprayed upon the metal surfaces at a spray pressure in the range of 30 to 50 atmospheres gauge.
  • the temperature at which the phosphating solution is applied to the metal surface lies advantageously in the range between 40 and C.
  • the high-pressure spray process is caried out with the same layer-forming coating solutions which have heretofore been conventionally used for spray-phosphating at low pressure.
  • the acid solutions contain phosphate ions and cations of polyvalent metals, such as magnesium, manganese, cadmium, cobalt, nickel and lead, individually or in admixture with each other. Because of the particularly favorable properties of the phosphate layers prepared therewith in regard to corrosion stability and improved lacquer adhesion, those solutions are preferably used which contain zinc or calcium as layer-forming cations, but also those solutions are suitable which contain zinc and calcium ions together in various atomic weight ratios. For acceleration of the coating formation, customary accelerators are added to the phosphating solutions.
  • oxidizing agents such as nitrites, nitrates, chlorates, perborates or hydrogen peroxide, or with the combination nitrite/ nitrate, nitrite/chlorate or nitrate/perborate.
  • the phosphating solutions used in the high-pressure spray process according to the present invention contain phosphate ions, polyvalent metal ions and accelerators in the customary concentrations. Also, the ratio of free acid to bound acid, as well as the Working pH, lie within the conventional limits.
  • cleaning and phosphating may be carried out in one working step.
  • non-ionic wetting agents such as reaction products of the ethylene oxide with fatty alcohols, alkylphenols, fatty amines or polyoxypropyleneglycols, are added to the acid phosphating solution.
  • concentration of the wetting agents in the phosphating solution lies within the customary limits of 0.1 to 5 gm./
  • the phosphating of iron and steel surfaces by the highpressnre spray process can be carried out in automatic installations as well as with the aid of manual spraying equipment.
  • the iron and steel surfaces phosphated by the process pursuant to the present invention are resistant against fly-rust, so that a subsequent treatment with chromic acid or chromate solutions is unnecessary.
  • the phosphate layers produced thereby are more closed and have a finer crystals structure than phosphate coatings produced with the same phosphating solution, but at a low spraying pressure by known processes; with respect to corrosion protection and lacquer adhesion they are at least equivalent to the latter.
  • the high-pressure spray process according to the present invention has the additional advantage relative to the known low-pressure spray processes that it does not require a subsequent passivation of the phosphatized metal surfaces. Consequently not only the chromic acid passivation step, but also the required work-physiological protective measures and the detoxification of the waste liquids are obviated. This is particularly advantageous in cases where ferrous metal surfaces are to be phosphated by manual spraying; thus, the layer-forming phosphating treatment can now also be applied where its application was heretofore not feasible with regard to Work-physiology and waste liquid detoxification, as well as to fixed metal structures, such as overhead eelctrical transmission line towers, bridges, etc.
  • the phosphated bodies were rinsed with tap water, then with completely desalted water and finally dried in a hot air stream.
  • This treatment provided the steel bodies with a homogeously formed, dense zinc phosphate layer.
  • the treated surface showed no deposit of fiy-rust.
  • a non-ionic wetting agent (addition product of 1 mol of nonylphenol to 9 mols of ethylene oxide) 1.6
  • the phosphate-coated iron sheets were electrophoret- 4 ically lacquered and subjected to the salt-spray test according to ASTM B 117-64 with cross-cut. After 350 hours the following values were obtained:
  • a rust-protective phosphate coating to a ferric metal surface, which comprises spraying an aqueous phosphoric acid solution of phosphates of layer-forming metals selected from the group consisting of zinc phosphate, calcium phosphate and mixtures thereof, in the presence of oxidizing agent accelerators under pressure onto said surface, the improvement which consists in that the spray pressure is from 10 to 100 atmospheres gauge.
  • aqueous phosphoric acid solution of phosphates is an aqueous phosphoric acid solution of zinc phosphate.
