Abstract
A corrosion resistant film with a low coefficient of friction that facilitates automatic conveying can be formed on the surface of tin-plated steel or of aluminum; particularly DI cans of one of these types of metal, by contacting the aluminum or the tin plated steel with an aqueous liquid composition having a pH in the range from 2.0 to 6.5 and containing: (A) from 1 to 30 g/L of phosphate ions, (B) from 0.1 to 10g/L of condensed phosphate ions, and (C) from 0.1 to 20 g/L as solids of a water-soluble resin component selected from the group of resins, including mixtures of resins, having general chemical formula (I) wherein n is an integer within the range from 10 to 80 inclusive; each of X and Y is independently selected from hydrogen or a group "Z" with formula (II); except that at least 15 % the total of all of the X and Y groups in this component of the composition are Z rather than hydrogen; and (II) wherein each of R1 and R2 in each of the phenyl rings in the formula independently is selected from the group consisting of alkyl groups containing from 1 to 10 carbon-atoms per group and hydroxyalkyl groups containing from 1 to 10 carbon atoms per group.
Description
LIQUID COMPOSITION AND PROCESS FOR TREATING ALUMINIU~9 OR TIN CANS
TO IMPART CORROSION RESISTANCE AND REDUCED FRICTION COEFFICIENT
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a novel liquid compo-sition for treating the surface of tin-plated steel and/or aluminum and alloys that are predominantly aluminum (both the pure metal and alloys being denoted hereinafter by the word "aluminum" unless the context requires otherwise), particularly the surfaces of drawn-and-ironed (hereinafter "DI") cans made from these materials. The composition im-parts an excellent corrosion ,resistance and paint adhes-iveness to the surface of such a can after its formation by the drawing and ironing of metal sheet but before its painting or printing. This novel liquid composition also imparts the excellent.mobility or slideability, i.e., low frictional resistance, which is required for the smooth conveyor transport of such a can. The composition also is relatively low in pollution potential, because it contains no deliberately introduced chromate or fluorine. The in-vention also relates to processes for using the composi-tion according to the invention.
BACKGROUND ART
In the field of liquid compositions for treating the surface of tin-plated DI can of the aforementioned type, one example is the invention disclosed in (1) Japanese Pat-ent Application Laid Open [Kokai or Unexamined] Number 01-100,281 [100,281/89]. This particular invention comprises a film-forming liquid composition for the treatment of met-al surfaces in which the liquid composition has a pH of 2 to 6 and contains 1 to 50 g/L of phosphate ions, 0.2 to 20.0 g/L of oxyacid ions, 0.01 to 5.0 g/L of tin ions, and 0.01 to 5.0 g/L of condensed phosphate ion. Treatment with this conversion treatment liquid composition lays down a strongly corrosion-resistant phosphate film on the surface of a tin-plated DI can.

Patent 4,457,790 are examples of a treatment method intend-ed to develop corrosion resistance and adhesiveness through the use of water soluble resin. These inventions teach methods for treating metal surfaces with a solution which contains a derivative of a suitable polyhydric phenol com - pound and an aminomethylene substituted phenolic polymer or oligomer respectively.
The treatment baths previously employed to treat the surface of aluminum and aluminum alloy of the aforemen tinned type can be generally classified into chromate types and non-chromate types. The chromate types typically take the form of chromic acid chromate conversion treatments and phosphoric acid chromate conversion treatments. Chromic acid chromate conversion treatments entered into practical application in about 1950, and these are still widely used for heat exchanger fin material and the like. This type of conversion treatment bath is based on chromic acid (Cr03) and hydrofluoric acid (HF) and also contains an accelerat or. It lays down a film which contains modest quantities of hexavalent chromium.
The phosphoric acid chromate conversion treatment de-rives from the invention in United States Patent Number 2,438,877 (1945), and this type of conversion treatment bath is based on chromic acid (Cr03), phosphoric acid (H3P04) , and hydrofluoric acid (HF) . It forms a film whose principal component is hydrated chromium phosphate (CrP04~4H20). As this film does not contain hexavalent chromium, it is currently widely employed as a paint under-coating treatment for the body and lid of beverage cans.
The invention disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid Open [Kokai or Unexamined] Number 52-131937 [131,937/
77] is a typical prior art example within the realm of non-chromate types of treatments for aluminum. The disclosed treatment bath comprises an acidic aqueous coating solution (pH - approximately 1.0 to 4.0) which contains zirconium or titanium or a mixture thereof, as well as phosphate and fluoride. The application of this conversion treatment ~CT/US91/04250 bath exemplary of the prior art to the surface of aluminum generates a conversion film whose principal component is zirconium oxide or titanium oxide. While the absence of hexavalent chromium is an advantage associated with non-chromate type treatment baths, the corrosion resistance and paint adherence achieved with such baths in the prior art are inferior to those with chromate type treatments. Fur-thermore, both the chromate type treatments and non-chrom-ate type treatments contain fluorine, while environmental considerations have recently created demand for a fluorine-free surface treatment bath.
Within the sphere of treatment methods which use wat-er-soluble resin in order to impart corrosion resistance and paint adherence to aluminum, the following are listed as exemplary of the prior art: Japanese Patent Applica-tion Laid Open Number 61-91369 [91,369/86] and Japanese Patent Application Laid Open Number O1-172406 [172,406/89].
In these methods, the metal surface is treated With a solu-tion which contains a useable derivative of a polyhydric phenolic compound. However, it is difficult with these methods to form an adequately stable film on the surface of aluminum, and this precludes the appearance of a satisfac-tory performance (corrosion resistance).
During the metal can manufacturing process, the high friction coefficient of the exterior can surface causes the can. surface to have a poor slideability during conveyor transport of the can, which causes the can to tumble over sideways and thus impairs the transport operation. Can transportability is a particular issue with respect to transport to the printer in a high speed~continuous manu-facturing plant. It is therefore important in the can man-ufacturing industry to reduce the static friction coeffi-cient of the exterior can surface without compromising the adhesiveness of any paint or lacquer to be coated on the can.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Problems to Be Solved by the Invention The above-described invention (1) does lead to the formation of a strongly corrosion-resistant phosphate film on conventional tin-plated DI can; however, the tin-plated DI can produced over the last few years has. used smaller Quantities of tin plating in response to economic pres-sures. This has necessitated surface treatments with a far better corrosion resistance than before, and this demand is not entirely satisfied by invention (1). The other above described inventions do not always result in a satisfac-torily stable.corrosicn resistance with the tin-plated DI
can produced over the last few years or with aluminum cans.
Finally, the above-described invention (3) does in fact im-prove the slideability, but it sometimes does not improve the corrosion resistance or paint adhesiveness to an ade-quate degree.
Thus, with respect to cans carrying small quantities of tin plating or aluminum cans, the prior art leaves prob-lems unsolved wi th regard to the forma tion cf a highly cor -rosion resistant film and with regard to improvements in the slideability and paint adhesiveness.

Application of a surface-treatment liquid composition according to the present invention provides an aluminum or a tin-plated DI can surface with an excellent corrosion re sistance and paint adhesiveness prior to its painting or printing and also generates the excellent slideability nec-essary for smooth conveyor transport of the can. Finally, because the treatment bath according to the present inven-tion does not contain chromium or fluorine, the waste water treatment load is substantially reduced compared to most prior treatment baths, especially for aluminum.
Details of Preferred Embodiments of the Invention The surface-treatment liquid composition according to WO 91/19828 ~, ~~,PGT/US91/04250 ~y . ,, ,..~.
the present invention is an acidic treatment liquid compo-sition whose essential components are phosphate ions, con-densed phosphate ions, and water-soluble resin of a par-ticular type.
The phosphate ions can be introduced into the treat-ment liquid composition using phosphoric acid (H3P04), sod-ium phosphate (Na3P04), and the like. Its content should fall within the range preferably of 1 to 30 g/L and more preferably of 5 to 15 g/L. At below 1 g/L, the reactivity is relatively poor and film formation generally will not be satisfactory. A good-quality film can be formed at values in excess of 30 g/L, but the cost of the treatment liquid composition is increased and the economics are therefore impaired.
The condensed phosphate ions are selected from pyro- , phosphate ions, tripolyphosphate ions, and tetrapolyphos-phate ions. The acid or salt can be used to introduce the condensed phosphate ions. For example, when pyrophosphate ions are to be introduced, pyrophosphoric acid (H4P20~), sodium pyrophosphate (Na4P20~), and the like can be used.
This component should be present at 0.1 to 5 g/L for treating tin plated steel or at 0.1 to l0 g/L for treating aluminum, and the range of 0.4 to 1 g/L for tin plate or 1.0 to 4.0 g/L for aluminum is particularly preferred. At values less than 0.1 g/L, a satisfactory film will not be formed because of weak etching activity. However, the etching activity is undesirably high at values in excess of 5 g/L on tin plate or 10 g/L on aluminum, and the film-forming reaction is inhibited.
The water-soluble resin used by the present invention comprises polymers with the general formula already given above. The molecular weight is too low at values of n in this formula below 10, so that little or no improvement in corrosion resistance will normally be observed. At values for n of 81 and above, the aqueous solution has a reduced stability, which will normally generate problems in practi-cal applications. Functional groups R1 or RZ containing 11 or more carbons usually would reduce the stability of an aqueous solution containing them. The group Z is preferably -CH2N(CH3)2 or -CH2N(CH3)CH2CH20H. When less than 15 % of the total of all the X's and Y's in the resin are Z, there are usually stability problems with the compositions that would otherwise be according to the invention.
The water soluble resin should be present at a concentration of from 0.1 to 20 g/L on a solids basis. At values less than 0.1 g/L, stable film formation on the can surface is highly problematic. Values in excess of 20 g/L are uneconomical due to the increased cost of the treatment solu-tion.
The pH of the treatment liquid composition must be from 2.0 to 6.5. Etching is heavy and film formation is impaired at pH values less than 2Ø At values in excess of 6.5, the liquid composition life is shortened because the resin tends to precipitate and sediment. The pH can be adjusted through the use of an acid, for example, phosphoric acid, nitric acid, hydrochloric acid and the like, or through the use of a base, for example, sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, ammonium hydroxide, and the like.
When metal ions (e.g., tin, aluminum, or iron) are introduced into the treatment liquid composition, precipitation may occur due to the formation of a resin/metal ion complex, and a chelating agent in addition to the resin as specified above should preferably be added to the treatment liquid composition in such cases. While this chelating agent is not specifically restricted, chelating agents useful within this context are exemplified by tartaric acid, ethanolamine, gluconic acid, oxalic acid, and the like.
7a The method for preparing the surface-treatment liquid composition according to the present invention can be briefly described as follows. Prescribed quantities of phosphate ions and condensed phosphate ions as described above are dissolved in water with thorough stirring. When WO 91/19~?8 ~ ~t~~ PCT/US91/04250 _... ~~~,~ ,-s the pH of this liquid composition is not already less than 7, it is adjusted to below 7 using the appropriate acid as noted above. The water-soluble resin specified by the present invention is then added and completely dissolved while stirring, and the pH is adjusted if necessary as dis-' cussed above.
The film which is formed by means of the present in-vention's surface-treatment liquid composition is believed to be an organic and inorganic composite film which is com-posed primarily of the resin and phosphate salts (the main component is believed to be tin phosphate when tin plated substrates are treated). While the invention is not limit-ed by any theory, it is believed that the substrate is etched by the phosphate ions and condensed phosphate ions, the pH at this time is locally increased at the interface, and phosphate salt is deposited on the surface. Moreover, the amino group in the resin has a chelating activity, and it may form a type of coordination compound with the fresh surface of the substrate generated by etching. The simul-taneous presence of the condensed phosphate ions is thought to promote formation of resin/metal coordination compounds, and this may make possible the stable formation of the com-posite film on the surface over a broad pH range.
A process according to the invention for treating tin plated DI can using a surface-treatment liquid composition of the present invention will now be considered. The pres ent invention's treatment liquid composition can be applied by the following process sequence, which is a preferred se quence for a process according to this invention.
1. Surface cleaning: degreasing (a weakly alkaline cleaner is typically used on tin-plated DI can, while an alkaline, acidic, or solvent based degreaser may be effectively used on aluminum cans.) 2.

Drying A surface-treatment liquid composition according to the present invention can conveniently be used at treatment temperatures from room temperature up to 80 ° C; however, it is generally preferably used at 40 to 60 ° C. The spray time preferably should be 2 to 60 seconds. At less than 2 seconds, a highly corrosion-resistant film will not usually be formed. No improvement in performance is observed for treatment times in excess of 60 seconds, but the cost is increased. Accordingly, the preferable treatment time will fall in the range from 2 to 60 seconds.
The practice of the invention and the superior per-formance of surface-treatment liquid composition according to the present invention may be further appreciated from the following working and comparison examples.
Examples General Methods and Criteria for the Examples The corrosion resistance of treated tin plated cans was evaluated using the iron exposure value ("IEV"), which was measured in accordance with the teaching of United States Patent No. 4,332,646. The corrosion resistance is better at lower IEV values, and a score below 150 is gener-ally regarded as excellent. The corrosion resistance of aluminum DI cans was evaluated based on the resistance to blackening by boiling water. A treated aluminum DI can was immersed for 30 minutes in boiling tap water, and the de-gree of discoloration (blackening) was visually evaluated in order to determine the resistance to blackening by boil-ing water. The following scale was used to score the re-sistance to blackening by boiling water: no blackening =
WO 91/19828 ~~~~'x~ PCT/US91/04250 + +, blackening of part of the surface = +, blackening of the entire surface = x.
The paint adhesiveness was evaluated based on the peel strength as follows: The surface of the treated can was 5 coated with an epoxy/urea can paint to a film thickness of 5 to 7 micrometers; this was baked at 215 ° C for 4 min-utes; the can was then cut into a 5 x 150 mm strip; a test specimen was prepared by hot-press adhesion with polyamide film; and this was peeled by the 180 °~peel test method.

10 Accordingly, the paint adhesiveness improves as the peel strength increases, and values in excess of 1.5 kilograms of force per 5 millimeters of width (hereinafter "kgf/5 mm-width") on tin plate or in excess of 4.0 kgf/5 mm-width on aluminum are generally regarded as excellent.
The slideability was evaluated by measuring the static friction coefficient of the exterior surface of the can.
Thus, the slideability improves as the static friction co-efficient declines, and values below 1.0 are generally re-garded as excellent.
