The warm encapsulant and the closing process that are used for aluminum anodized film
Technical field
The present invention is used for the warm encapsulant and the closing process of aluminum anodized film, belongs to the sealing post-processing technology field of aluminium and aluminium alloy anode oxide film, and is irrelevant with the sealing technique of aluminium hard anodized film or non-electrolytics conversion film.
Technical background
Aluminium and duraluminum are one of metals the most frequently used in the current industry, and aluminium and duraluminum are not only in light weight, and quality is hard, and has good ductility, electroconductibility, thermal conductivity, thermotolerance and anti-radioprotective property, is the important foundation starting material of the national economic development.
Aluminium and duraluminum are very stable in the exsiccant atmosphere, but in humid atmosphere, particularly are easy to corrosion in the air of salt concentration.Adopt anodic oxidation in the industry widely, generate layer oxide film at aluminium and articles made of aluminium alloy surface, adopting sulfuric acid or oxalic acid usually is electrolytic solution; Carry out anode electrolysis with aluminium and duraluminum as anode and handle, the formed conversion film of anodic oxidation is cellular porous structure, has high porosity and adsorptivity; This high porosity and adsorptivity both be convenient to technology dyeing; But be easy to contaminatedly, especially in corrosive atmosphere, corrosive medium gets into the rete hole easily and causes corrosion.Therefore, in the industrial production,, before dyeing or after the dyeing, generally all need the antianode oxidation film layer to carry out sealing treatment in order to improve the quality of aluminum anodized film.
The enclosure method that aluminum anodized film the most often adopts is boiling water sealing and nickel acetate closing process.And the drawback of these two kinds of closing process commonly used be sull behind sealing treatment, its surface is easy to generate disgusting white or grey meal, industry is referred to as sealing " pollen " or " sealing China ".When " pollen " was slight, available rag was wiped gently, then was difficult to wipe when serious, need move back film and handle again, caused sull to be scrapped.Research shows that the plurality of impurity ions of sealing treatment liquid can promote the generation of " pollen ", wherein Ca
2+, Mg
2+, Al
3+Isoionic existence effect is the most obvious.This shows for traditional boiling water closing process and nickel acetate closing process, alkaline earth metal ion Ca
2+, Mg
2+Be deleterious, so let alone prepare sealing treatment liquid with them.
Should carry out sealing treatment after the sull dyeing, to increase the light permanency and the solidity to corrosion of color and luster.Sealing technique the earliest is to adopt pure water to boil to boil; Its principle is that hydration reaction takes place in hot water the aluminium sesquioxide of sull surface and hole wall, generates hydrated aluminum oxide, and the volume of original sull is increased; The expansion of sull volume is significantly dwindled fenestra, thereby reaches the purpose of sealing of hole.Be difficult to control in the boiling water sealing actual production, the evaporation of sealing tank liquor is very fast, and impurity run-up in the tank liquor causes the sealing quality deterioration, needs the frequent change pure water.
Interpolation nickel acetate or Cobaltous diacetate carry out sealing of hole to sull in pure water, and hydrolysis takes place in hot water for these nickel salts or cobalt salt, in the sull hole, produces precipitation of hydroxide, plays sealing process equally.Such closing process can carry out under low slightly temperature condition, as 71-88 ℃.The tank liquor life-span is longer than the boiling water sealing; Sealing quality is better, and this closing process is still very popular in industry so far, and nickel acetate or Cobaltous diacetate closing process have an environmental issue; Just contain a large amount of heavy metal nickels and cobalt in the waste water of sealing treatment; Heavy metal ion can cause serious harm to environment, in order to protect environmental safety, needs to use complicated and expensive wastewater treatment equipment.
Basic metal and earth alkali metal extensively are present in natural soil and the seawater, and be very little to the toxicity of biology, and the processing of its trade effluent is fairly simple and cheap.Proposed not contain the composition of heavy metal nickel (Ni) and cobalt (Co) encapsulant in the U.S. Pat 5362317, used alkaline earth salt: calcium acetate (Ca (0Ac)
2), or magnesium acetate (Mg (OAc)
2), with AS: korenyl ether sulfonate, pH value are 4.5-7.5.Temperature range at 71-82 ℃ is sealed, time 15min.Sealing quality is good, the no pollen in surface.
Proposed in the U.S. Pat 5411607 with the prescription of an alkali metal salt as encapsulant: Lithium Acetate (LiOAc), every liter contains (Li
+) ion 0.5g, AS: every liter contains korenyl ether sulfonate 1g, and the pH value is 5.5-6.5, at 88 ℃ temperature range sealing, time 10min.Sealing quality is good, the no pollen in surface.
More than two patents all adopted macromole and contained the tensio-active agent of phenyl ring, this type organic cpds is slow at natural degradation speed, life-time service is accumulated in environment easily, and ecology is damaged.
