Definitions

  • the invention relates to the corrosion protection of metallic materials, in particular of those which are provided with a surface of zinc or zinc alloys.
  • the coating of the metallic workpiece to be protected with a coating of another metal is a widely used and established method in the art.
  • the coating metal can behave in the corrosive medium either electrochemically nobler or less noble than the material base metal. If the coating metal behaves less noble, it acts in the corrosive medium compared to the base metal as a sacrificial anode (cathodic corrosion protection).
  • this protective function associated with the formation of corrosion products of the coating metal is thus desired, the corrosion products of the coating often lead to undesirable decorative and often also to functional impairments of the workpiece.
  • cathodically protective base coating metals such as, for example, Zinc or aluminum and their alloys often used so-called conversion coatings.
  • conversion coatings These are reaction products of the non-noble coating metal which are insoluble in aqueous media over a wide pH range with the treatment solution. Examples of these so-called conversion layers are so-called phosphating and chromating.
  • chromium (VI) ions see EP 0 553 164 A1 .
  • chromium (VI) is reduced to chromium (III), which in the surface film which is more alkaline due to the evolution of hydrogen, inter alia as chromium (III) hydroxide or sparingly soluble ⁇ -oxo or ⁇ -hydroxo bridging Chromium (III) complex is deposited.
  • chromium (III) hydroxide or sparingly soluble ⁇ -oxo or ⁇ -hydroxo bridging Chromium (III) complex is deposited.
  • sparingly soluble zinc chromate (VI) is formed. Overall, a tightly closed, very well protects against corrosion attack by electrolytes conversion coating on the zinc surface.
  • chromium (VI) compounds are acutely toxic and highly carcinogenic, requiring replacement of the methods associated with these compounds.
  • a disadvantage of this additional process step is the occurrence of drainage drops in the coating of workpieces made on the frame and / or the bonding of coated bulk material; In addition, problems such as dimensional accuracy of threads and the like, which are associated with the layer thickness of these seals arise.
  • the font EP 0 479 289 A1 describes a chromating process in which the substrates are immersed in a treatment solution containing, in addition to chromium (VI) and chromium (III) ions, hydrofluoric acid and phosphoric acid, a silane coupling agent.
  • the patent EP 0 922 785 B1 describes a treatment solution and a process for the production of protective layers on metals, wherein the surface to be protected with a treatment solution, the chromium (III) ions, an oxidizing agent and an oxyacid or an oxyacid salt of phosphorus or a corresponding anhydride contains.
  • This treating solution may further contain a monomeric silane coupling agent.
  • EP 1 051 539 B1 describes a treatment solution for increasing the corrosion protection of substrates which, in addition to chromium (VI) and chromium (III) ions, also contains phosphoric acid, hydrofluoric acid, colloidal silicon dioxide and a monomeric epoxy-functionalized silane.
  • the font WO 2008/14166 A1 describes a treatment solution for the production of anticorrosive coatings.
  • This treatment solution contains, in addition to zinc ions, phosphoric acid or acidic phosphates, organic or inorganic anions which one of the elements boron, silicon, titanium or zirconium, trivalent chromium ions and an inorganic or organic peroxide as an oxidizing agent.
  • the font WO 97/15700 A1 describes a treatment solution for the production of anticorrosive coatings.
  • the treatment solution contains hydrolyzed silanes and phosphoric acid and is free of chromium ions and chromium containing compounds.
  • the invention has for its object to provide methods for increasing the corrosion protection of metallic, especially zinc-containing and zinc-containing, provided with a conversion layer, surfaces.
  • the aim is to preserve or improve the decorative and functional properties of the surfaces.
  • the above problems with the use of chromium (VI) -containing compounds and hydrofluoric acid or post-treatments for sealing are to be avoided.
  • the process usually carried out in two separate stages is to apply a passivation step containing chromium (III) ions followed by a one-step process be replaced, in which the functionality of a chromium (III) ion-containing passivation layer and a sealing are combined.
  • a further aspect of the invention is that it is possible to dispense with the rinsing steps which are normally required in the two-stage processes known from the prior art between the application of the passivation containing chromium (III) ions and the sealing. This significantly reduces the amount of heavy metal contaminated wastewater. Furthermore, the handling of silanes and other metal alkoxides should be made controllable by separately prepared under appropriate reaction conditions organosols of sufficient stability and film-forming properties and then only with the remaining components of the treatment solution (chromium (III) ions, phosphate source and other optional components) be mixed.
