Then, the next test piece is processed.
Example 2
The procedure of the aluminum alloy chemical conversion accelerated test parameters was the same as in comparative example 2 except that the aluminum alloy acid treatment solution A was replaced with an aluminum alloy acid treatment solution B.
After the 10 th test piece is treated, the corrosion rate of the aluminum alloy acid treatment liquid B on the test piece is detected to be 0.015 mm/surface/hour.

Then, the next test piece is processed.
Analysis of results of aluminum alloy chemical conversion acceleration test (comparative example 2 and example 2)
(1) When the test pieces are processed to 9 th and 10 th test pieces
FIG. 1 shows the 9 th and 10 th test pieces obtained by the treatment of comparative example 2, FIG. 2 shows the 9 th and 10 th test pieces obtained by the treatment of example 2, and in FIGS. 1 and 2, the left test piece is the 9 th test piece and the right test piece is the 10 th test piece.
As shown in the figure, the test piece (pretreated with the aluminum alloy acid treatment liquid A) of comparative example 2 had an uneven chemical oxide film layer on the surface. The surface of the test piece of example 2 (pretreated with the aluminum alloy acid treatment solution B) was chemically oxidized to form a uniform film layer.
(2) When processing 30, 31 test pieces
Fig. 3 shows the 30 th and 31 th test pieces treated in comparative example 2, fig. 4 shows the 30 th and 31 th test pieces treated in example 2, and in fig. 3 and 4, the left side test piece is the 30 th test piece, and the right side test piece is the 31 th test piece. As shown in the figure, the test piece of FIG. 3 (pretreated with the aluminum alloy acid treatment solution A) had a chemical oxide film only partially after chemical conversion. The test piece of FIG. 4 (pretreated with the aluminum alloy acid treatment solution B) had a uniform chemical oxide film on the entire surface after chemical conversion.
From the above experimental results, it is understood that the aluminum alloy treatment liquid of comparative example 1 has a short pot life, and after a certain period of use, the surface of the aluminum alloy cannot be effectively treated, and thus an acceptable chemical conversion coating cannot be obtained. The aluminum alloy treating fluid of example 1 has a longer service life, and can effectively treat the surface of the aluminum alloy when the aluminum alloy treating fluid is used for treating 31 test pieces, so that an acceptable chemical conversion coating is obtained.
Second, testing the end point pitting and intergranular corrosion of crystal grains
For the newly prepared and aged aluminum alloy acid-treated liquid B of example 1, 2024-T3 bare aluminum test pieces (having dimensions of 125 mm. times.80 mm. times.1 mm) were placed in the aluminum alloy acid-treated liquid B, and the test pieces were observed after etching for 30 minutes. FIG. 5 shows a metallographic picture of the aluminum alloy test piece, as shown in the figure, only 0.017mm of grain end pitting corrosion is observed on the test piece, and no intergranular corrosion is observed.
Three, constant speed (non-accelerated aging) chemical conversion production
Example 3
In the chemical conversion production at the constant speed, 9000 liters of the aluminum alloy acid treatment solution was used in the formulation of the aluminum alloy acid treatment solution B in example 1, and the aluminum alloy chemical conversion treatment was performed in accordance with the steps a) to j) of example 2, and the aluminum alloy part was treated at about 24m per day in terms of the surface area of the aluminum alloy part2
In the chemical conversion production process, a 2024-T3 aluminum-coated test piece is used for corrosion rate test, and if the corrosion rate of the aluminum alloy acid treatment liquid to the test piece is less than 0.020 mm/surface/hour, phosphoric acid and hydrofluoric acid with the mass ratio of 1:1.2 are added into the aluminum alloy acid treatment liquid B, so that the corrosion rate reaches 0.020-0.025 mm/surface/hour.
The pitting corrosion and intergranular corrosion capability test is carried out by using 2024-T3 bare aluminum test pieces every season, namely, the 2024-T3 bare aluminum test pieces (the size is 125mm multiplied by 80mm multiplied by 1mm) are placed in the aluminum alloy acid treatment solution B, and the test pieces are observed after 30 minutes of corrosion. The results show that the aluminum alloy treatment liquid of the present example satisfies: the pitting depth of the end of the grain is not more than 0.025mm and no intergranular corrosion exists.
And analyzing and adjusting other chemical components except phosphoric acid and hydrofluoric acid in the aluminum alloy treatment solution every week to enable the components to meet formula values.
Chemical conversion film integrity test: after 2 years (730 days) of continuous use of the above solution, a chemical conversion test was carried out using a bare aluminum test piece 2024-T3, and the entire surface of the chemically converted test piece had a uniform chemical oxide film.
And (3) salt spray testing: 3 test pieces after the above chemical conversion were left for 24 hours and subjected to a salt spray test for 168 hours according to ASTM B117 salt spray test standards. FIG. 6 is a photograph showing 3 specimens of the aluminum alloy, in which no corrosion spots were observed after the test.
The above experiment shows that the aluminum alloy treatment liquid of example 1 has an advantage of a longer cycle time than the aluminum alloy treatment liquid of comparative example 1. The aluminum alloy treatment liquid of example 1 was excellent in the effect of treating an aluminum alloy and did not cause intergranular corrosion. And (3) carrying out chemical conversion on the treated aluminum alloy, wherein the obtained chemical conversion film is complete and has no corrosion point after a salt spray test.
