A kind of corrosion resistance magnesium alloy differential arc oxidation electrolytic solution and differential arc oxidation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to magnesium alloy surface treatment, specifically a kind of corrosion resistance magnesium alloy differential arc oxidation electrolytic solution and differential arc oxidation method thereof.
Background technology
Magnesium alloy proportion is little, specific tenacity and specific rigidity height, heat-conductivity conducting is good, has good damping shock absorption and electro-magnetic screen function simultaneously, store content is abundant in addition, be easy to recycle, as electronic product, as mobile communication, the shell structure part of hand-held computer etc., can substitute the plastics that are widely used at present, satisfy light, thin, the miniaturization of electronic product and the requirement of Highgrade integration, be used widely just day by day.The extensive application of magnesium alloy on car body especially can realize car lightization.According to measuring and calculating, automotive dead weight alleviates 10%, and its fuel efficiency can improve 5.5%, because the lighting of automobile has reduced fuel consumption, has reduced the automobile greenhouse gas emissions simultaneously, has reduced pollution, has more important meaning in environment protection.Therefore, magnesium and magnesium alloy have become the preferred material in fields such as Hyundai Motor, electronics, communication and aerospace, are described as " the green engineering material of 21st century ".
But, further enlarge the application of magnesium alloy on automobile and 3C Product, must solve the corrosion and protection problem of magnesium alloy.Magnesium is the highest metallic substance of chemical activity in the existing structure material, and its standard potential is-2.37 volts.The oxide film that the surface forms naturally in atmosphere is loose porous, does not have provide protection substantially.Under various envrionment conditionss, when especially chlorion existed, the corrosion failure of magnesium and alloy thereof was very serious.
Magnesium alloy generally must carry out suitable surface treatment before use, and method has conversion film, anodic oxidation, plating, electroless plating and surface modification etc.Generally believe that anodic oxidation is to make magnesium and magnesium alloy obtain best corrosion proof method.The used power supply of anodic oxidation has direct current (DC), exchanges the branch of (AC) and pulse by waveform, has constant voltage and constant current other again by the control to output.Because OH
-Translational speed move soon than other negatively charged ion, the continuous current that therefore uses direct supply to carry out control current density certainly will cause near the positive column particularly OH of negatively charged ion
-Enrichment, cause unsettled Mg (OH)
2Film forms.Use the pulse power can effectively control near the suitable zwitterion ratio positive column, promote the better formation of anode oxide film such as wear resistance and solidity to corrosion, thus more superior than direct supply.Especially dipulse system more and more is subject to people's attention.This is because anodic oxidation generally relies on spark discharge to form oxide film, and spark discharge makes the anode surface local temperature very high, greater than 1000 ℃.After impressed voltage is greater than voltage breakdown, for the constant current oxidation, there is this moment spark to form on the sample always, the temperature of region of discharge raises rapidly, and melts forms when rapid solidification than gross blow hole; For the two pulse oxidation, when electric current was negative value, sample was a negative electrode, the H in the solution
+Move and separate out thereon to sample, this can take away the heat of specimen surface, oxide compound/electrolyte surface is cooled off better, thereby the porosity of film still less, and pattern is more even, and solidity to corrosion is improved.
Along with improving constantly of anodic oxidation operating voltage, someone is according to caused anodic oxidation phenomenon and gained film performance difference by the operating voltage difference, anodic oxidation voltage-current curve is divided into faraday district, three intervals in spark discharge district and arc discharge district, and will be called differential arc oxidation, plasma micro-arc oxidation or anode spark deposition corresponding to the anodic oxidation of voltage upper zone in the spark discharge district.It breaks through the restriction of conventional anodization technical work voltage, and high voltage discharge field is guided in the work area, has improved the compactness and the solidity to corrosion of anode oxide film greatly.Used electrolytic solution is generally acidity or basic solution at present, uses Cr in acidic solution
6+(as Dow17) has bigger harm to environment and health of human body; And use basic solution that its deficiency is also arranged, because voltage breakdown reduces along with the increase of pH value, and the relatively poor Mg (OH) of the high more easy more formation solidity to corrosion of pH value
2Or MgO film.In view of above consideration, develop a kind of Cr that do not contain
6+, operating voltage height, the pH value is low, solidity to corrosion is good electrolyte prescription and corresponding technology, become important research contents of magnesium anode oxidation technology.
Summary of the invention
In order to overcome above-mentioned deficiency, the object of the invention is to provide a kind of to be had than high anti-corrosion and used electrolytic solution corrosion resistance magnesium alloy differential arc oxidation electrolytic solution and the differential arc oxidation method thereof very little to environmental influence.
To achieve these goals, technical scheme of the present invention is:
1) pre-treatment: grind or degreasing pickling.Machine for workpiece adds and the die casting surface, can carry out degreasing and pickling successively; For workpiece with sand casting surface, should remove surperficial sand grains with mechanical means earlier, carry out oil removing and pickling then; And for smooth workpiece, only need in distilled water, to clean then with after the waterproof abrasive paper polishing successively from coarse to fine.
Superficial Foreign Body is removed in described polishing or grinding (being mechanical pre-treatment), reduces surfaceness; Described degreasing is to adopt usually that alkaline solution is concentration 5~40g/l sodium hydroxide, 5~35g/l potassium hydroxide, 10~25g/l water glass, 10~30g/l yellow soda ash, 10~20g/l sodium phosphate is wherein a kind of or its compound, its wash temperature is controlled between 50~95 ℃, and the time is 5~15 minutes; Described pickling is that to adopt solution usually be the combination solution of a kind of acid or multiple acid in concentration 5~20g/l hydrofluoric acid, 5~15g/l nitric acid, 5~25g/l sulfuric acid, the 5~40g/l phosphoric acid, removes oxide on surface with its washing; Temperature is controlled at 20~60 ℃, and the time is 0.5~5 minute;
2) differential arc oxidation: in phytic acid or its an alkali metal salt, add hydrofluoric acid, phosphoric acid, boric acid and/or fluoroboric acid, it also can be their ammonium salt, one or more materials with ammoniacal liquor, hexamethylenetetramine, diethylenetriamine, the pH value of regulator solution, make it 6~10, use low value, then differential arc oxidation as far as possible.The consumption of phytic acid (or its an alkali metal salt) is 5g/L~25g/L, the consumption of hydrofluoric acid (or its ammonium salt) is 5g/L~40g/L, the consumption of phosphoric acid (or its ammonium salt) is 15g/L~70g/L, the consumption of boric acid (or its ammonium salt) is 15g/L~60g/L, and the consumption of fluoroboric acid (or its ammonium salt) is 5g/L~50g/L.Used power supply is the pulse power, and electrolyte temperature is controlled between 15~30 ℃, and the time is 2~40 minutes, and positive whole voltage is at least 350V;

2, range of frequency is 100Hz~1000Hz, positive and negative pulse duty factor each 5~40%, positive whole voltage is 350~550V, negative whole voltage 50~300V.
Before the anodic oxidation, workpiece is with the poly fourfluoroplastics encapsulation of becoming attached to, and stainless steel is a negative electrode.Because during spark discharge, solution temperature can raise, thereby oxidation unit also comprises the stirring cooling apparatus.Stir electrolytic solution and low electrolyte temperature oxide compound/electrolyte surface is cooled off better, thereby the hole of film still less, and pattern is more even; Another effect that stirs is to suppress side reaction, especially gas to separate out on two electrodes.
In the used chemical reagent of the present invention, positively charged ion is controlled the cation concn of other valence state as far as possible except that alkalimetal ion and ammonium ion, generates precipitation to prevent they and reaction of phytic acid, reduces the concentration of phytic acid in the solution.
