Description

Steel anodic oxidation electrolyte and anodic oxidation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of metal anodic oxidation, and particularly relates to steel anodic oxidation electrolyte and an anodic oxidation method thereof.
Background
Anodizing is a widely used metal surface treatment technique, but anodizing is often limited to treating aluminum alloys. With the development of the technology, anodic oxidation technology of magnesium alloy and titanium alloy has also been developed. Like aluminum alloy, magnesium alloy and titanium alloy also belong to self-passivation type metal, and can generate a compact oxide film in air so as to protect a matrix, and the metal is easy to carry out anodic oxidation treatment and grow a thicker oxide layer under the condition of external current. Steel materials are difficult to anodize due to their own electrochemical properties. In the anodic oxidation treatment of aluminum alloys, an aqueous solution of sulfuric acid or oxalic acid is generally used as an electrolyte, and particularly, a sulfuric acid-based electrolyte is mainly used. Therefore, the industry does not anodize steel.
The aluminum alloy anodic oxide film has excellent characteristics such as wear resistance, corrosion resistance, insulation and the like, and is therefore often used as a surface functional coating for engineering structural members or mechanical parts; the aluminum alloy anodic oxide film can also be colored and thus can be used as a decorative coating; in addition, the aluminum alloy anodic oxide film has a special micro-or nano-structure, such as micro-pores or nano-pores, so that the aluminum alloy anodic oxide film can be used in the field of nano-materials, for example, can be used as a template for preparing the nano-materials, and can also be used as a separation film.
The ferrous material contains iron as the main component. Iron metal is not self-passivating, unlike aluminum. Iron also loses electrons in solutions of sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, etc. to become iron ions and likewise reacts to form oxides, but iron ions dissolve too quickly and the oxides are also prone to dissolution or further reaction, eventually resulting in corrosion of the iron rather than the formation of a dense protective oxide film.
It would be of great benefit to the development of surface treatments for steel materials if the steel could also be anodized and achieved similar performance and application as the anodized film of aluminum alloy.
In view of the above, the present invention is directed to an anodizing solution for steel and an anodizing method thereof.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve the problem that steel is difficult to carry out anodic oxidation treatment in the prior art, the invention provides steel anodic oxidation electrolyte and an anodic oxidation method thereof, and an oxide film obtained on the surface of the steel has the characteristics of wear resistance, corrosion resistance, strong binding force with a matrix and the like.
The invention is realized by the following technical scheme:
The steel anodic oxidation electrolyte comprises the following components: 0.2-1mol/L citric acid, 0.01-0.15mol/L ammonium fluoride, 0.01-1g/L glycerol, 0.01-1g/L alkylphenol polyoxyethylene and water.
Preferably, the steel anodizing electrolyte comprises the following components: 0.7mol/L citric acid, 0.08mol/L ammonium fluoride, 0.02g/L glycerol, 0.03g/L alkylphenol polyoxyethylene and water.
Preferably, the steel anodizing electrolyte comprises the following components: 0.6mol/L citric acid, 0.05mol/L ammonium fluoride, 0.1g/L glycerol, 0.04g/L alkylphenol polyoxyethylene and water.
Preferably, the steel anodizing electrolyte comprises the following components: 0.2mol/L citric acid, 0.15mol/L ammonium fluoride, 0.9g/L glycerol, 0.8g/L alkylphenol polyoxyethylene and water.
The invention also provides a steel anodic oxidation method adopting the electrolyte, which comprises the following steps:
(1) Surface pretreatment: sequentially grinding, polishing and cleaning the surface of the steel workpiece, and then drying the steel workpiece;
(2) Anodic oxidation treatment: and (2) taking the steel workpiece pretreated in the step (1) as an anode, immersing the anode and a cathode in the electrolyte, connecting the anode with a positive electrode of a power supply, and connecting the cathode with a negative electrode of the power supply, and carrying out anodic oxidation treatment.
Preferably, in the step (1), the grinding is performed by using sand paper, the polishing is performed by using a polishing machine for mechanical polishing, and the cleaning is performed by using deionized water.
Preferably, the anodic oxidation in step (2) is performed under the condition of mechanical stirring or gas stirring, and the speed of the mechanical stirring is 500-.
Preferably, the anodizing conditions are as follows: voltage of 5-30V, time of 5-60min, and electrolyte temperature of 0-25 deg.C. When the anodic oxidation voltage is too high (>30V), the corrosion dissolution speed is accelerated, and an oxide film formed on the surface of a steel workpiece is easy to dissolve too fast, is difficult to thicken and is not dense; if the voltage for anodic oxidation is too low (<5V), the growth of the oxide film on the surface of the steel workpiece is not facilitated. Too long an anodic oxidation time also causes the formed oxide film to dissolve and become loose. Too high electrolyte temperature also causes the oxide film to dissolve too fast and become loose.
Preferably, the cathode in step (2) is a graphite plate or a lead plate.
Preferably, the steel anodizing method further comprises the steps of washing the workpiece subjected to the anodizing treatment in the step (2) with deionized water and drying the workpiece with cold air.
The invention has the beneficial effects that:

The citric acid in the electrolyte formula is not used as an additive of a chelating agent in the prior art, under the condition of not adding sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid, the citric acid enables iron to lose electrons and become iron ions, and the iron ions are oxidized, and the oxidation and dissolution processes of an oxide film on the surface of steel can be regulated, so that a compact oxide film is controlled and obtained.
(2) in the steel anodic oxidation electrolyte, the ammonium fluoride is ionized into fluorine ions and ammonia ions in water, the fluorine ions have the etching effect on steel materials, the anodic oxidation process can be controlled by controlling the adding amount, and a microstructure with a certain shape can be etched.

(4) The invention also provides a method for carrying out anodic oxidation treatment on steel by using the steel anodic oxidation electrolyte, and the obtained steel surface oxide film has the advantages of strong binding force, wear resistance and corrosion resistance by controlling the technological parameters of anodic oxidation; meanwhile, the method has the characteristics of simple and convenient operation and remarkable effect.
