Definitions
- the present invention relates to prepainted steel sheets having excellent properties suitable for use as construction materials such as roof materials and wall materials as well as household electric appliances, hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheets having properties superior to those of conventional ones and suitable for use as the sheets of the prepainted sheets and a process for producing them.
- a principal object of these processes is to reduce the weight loss of the coated steel sheets due to corrosion by the addition of Al.
- the loss due to corrosion of the coated steel sheets in exposure tests in outdoor is usually reduced as the Al concentration in the coating bath is increased and, therefore, the corrosion resistance of the sheets is improved.
- an alloy layer formed on the interface with iron becomes thicker and the adhesion and the workability of the coating layer are seriously reduced as the Al concentration is increased.
- Zn-Al alloy coated steel sheets particularly those to be used as sheets for prepainted steel sheets from the viewpoint of the use of them:
- the coating layer has an excellent adhesion which is not reduced with time
- the present applicant proposed a coated steel sheet for prepainted galvanized steel sheets which is produced by coating a steel sheet with hot dipping bath comprising 0.3 to 3.5 wt.% of Al and the balance of Zn and unavoidable impurities (see Japanese Patent Application No. 159469/1983).
- the eutectic point is realized when the alloy comprises 5 wt.% of Al (95 wt.% of Zn).
- the Al content is deviated to some extent from 5 wt.%, the texture of the solidified alloy is quite different from that of the 5 wt.% Al alloy unless it is quenched at a very high speed.
- the Al-Zn alloy having 5 wt.% Al content is eutectic and, therefore, its melting point is low and Al and Zn are dispersed homogeneously irrespective of the cooling rate.
- an Al-Zn alloy having an Al content of 5 wt.% is advantageous for homogeneously dispersing Al and Zn and for giving a stable texture.

- the present invention described in Claims 9 and 10 relates to a prepainted steel sheet produced from the above-described Zn-Al alloy coated steel sheet.
- the prepainted steel sheets are those previously painted with a paint. They are produced continuously on a large scale by painting galvanized steel sheets or zinc alloy coated steel sheets with a roll coater usually after chemical conversion treatment. The demand for them as starting materials for construction materials, household electric appliances, business machines, etc. is now increasing, since they have excellent, uniform qualities, they can be supplied in large amounts and no painting is necessary after application.
- the properties required of the prepainted steel sheets are mainly adhesion, corrosion resistance, workability, weather resistance and scratch resistance. However, it is quite difficult to satisfy all o the required properties with only one paint.
- durability means weather resistance and corrosion resistance. Namely, an excellent durability means that the color tone and gloss are substantially unchanged and no rust is formed in 10 or 20 years.
- the excellent weather resistance can be given by using a paint having excellent properties against chalking and fading.
- red rust is often observed in a portion of roof or wall material worked by roll forming machine only several years after the construction, though the timing of the rust formation varies depending on the environmental conditions.
- the former requirement was satisfied by producing prepainted steel sheets or metal sheets having excellent corrosion resistance after intensive investigations.
- the inventors made investigations for the purpose of satisfying the latter requirement.
- the inventors After intensive investigations made for the purpose of satisfying the latter requirement, the inventors have completed the inventions as set forth in Claims 1 to 8 of the present invention. Namely, the inventors have succeeded in the production of Zn-Al alloy coated steel sheets having excellent properties. After further investigations of prepainted steel sheets, the inventors have found that two-coat steel sheets having a performance equivalent to that of three-coat steel sheets can be produced when the Zn-Al alloy coated steel sheets as set forth in Claims 1 to 8 are used. The inventors have completed the inventions as set forth in Claims 9 and 10 on the basis of this finding.
- An object of the present invention is to solve the above-described problems and the gist thereof resides in:
- a hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet for a prepainted steel sheet produced by coating the sheet in a hot dipping bath comprising 0.3 to 3.5 wt.% of Al, 100 ppm or less of Pb and the balance of Zn and unavoidable impurities,
- a hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet for a prepainted steel sheet produced by coating the sheet in a hot dipping bath comprising 0.3 to 3.5 wt.% of Al, 1/100 to 1 part, per part of Al, of Si, 100 ppm or less of Pb and the balance of Zn and unavoidable impurities,
- a hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet for a prepainted steel sheet produced by coating the sheet in the same hot dipping bath as that of Claim 1 or 2 which further contains 0.01 to 1.5 wt.% of one or more metals selected from the group consisting of Mg, Mn and Cu,
- a process for producing a hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet for a prepainted steel sheet wherein the steel sheet is taken out of the hot dipping bath and then the amount of the molten zinc-aluminum alloy deposited on the steel sheet is controlled with a gas wiping type of equipment for controlling the amount of molten zinc-aluminum alloy deposit under conditions comprising a slit clearance of 0.6 to 2.4 mm, a distance between front and back nozzles of 10 to 40 mm and an ejecting pressure of gas of 0.1 to 2.0 kg/cm 2 in the step of coating in the hot dipping bath according to Claim 1, 2 or 3,
- a prepainted steel sheet having excellent workability and corrosion resistance which comprises the hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet according to Claim 1 to 3 or the hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet produced according to the process of Claims 4 to 8, including a layer formed thereon by chemical conversion treatment and further a surface painting film layer formed thereon, and
- a prepainted steel sheet according to Claim 9 wherein the chemical conversion layer is one formed by treating the hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet with a chromic acid solution containing silica having an average particle diameter of 50 m ⁇ and a specific surface area of 200 m 2 /g in such a manner that the amount of the coating film after drying will be 50 to 250 mg/m 2 to impart an excellent scratch resistance.
- the invention of Claim 1 relates to a hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet for a prepainted steel sheet, which is produced by coating in a hot dipping bath comprising 0.3 to 3.5 wt.% of Al, 100 ppm or less of Pb and the balance of Zn and unavoidable impurities.
- the Al concentration is thus limited because when it exceeds 3.5 wt.%, the self-sacrifying anticorrosive effect of Zn on iron is reduced while when it is insufficient, the effect of improving the corrosion resistance at the surface of the coating layer is unsatisfactory. With at least 0.3 wt.% Al concentration, the workability is also improved and this effect is remarkable when the Al concentration is 0.5 wt.% or higher.
- the Pb concentration is limited because when it exceeds 100 ppm, the adhesion is reduced with time due to intercrystalline corrosion and consequently the corrosion resistance which is particularly important for the prepainted steel sheet is damaged. With 100 ppm or less of Pb, stable adhesion which is not reduced with time can be obtained. With an Al concentration of 0.3 to 3.5 wt.% and a Pb concentration of 100 ppm or less, a zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet which does not cause reduction in adhesion with time, has an excellent workability and is quite suitable for use as the sheet for a prepainted steel sheet can be obtained.
- the temperature of the hot dipping bath may be one at which Zn and Al are molten to form a homogeneous melt, such as about 430 to 480°C.
- the invention as set forth in Claim 2 relates to a hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet for a prepainted steel sheet, which is produced by coating in a hot dipping bath comprising 0.3 to 3.5 wt.% of Al, 1/100 to 1 part, per part of Al, of Si, 100 ppm or less of Pb and the balance of Zn and unavoidable impurities.
- a hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet having excellent workability and adhesion after aging can be obtained when the Al concentration is in the range of 0.3 to 3.5 wt.% and the Pb concentration is 100 ppm or less as stated in Claim 1, it is further preferred to add 1/100 to 1 part, per part of Al, of Si.
- the addition of Si serves to inhibit the formation of the alloy layer at the interface between the steel sheet and the coating layer to thereby make the formation of a thin alloy layer possible.
- a zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet having further improved workability and adhesion after aging can be obtained.
- the Si concentration is limited because when it is as low as about 1/200 of the Al concentration, no improvement in the workability or adhesion can be obtained. Another reason is that the control of the addition of Si in an amount of as small as 1/200 of Al is difficult, since the Al concentration is as low as 0.3 wt.% or less. The lower limit of the Si concentration is thus 1/100 of the Al concentration.
- the Al concentration is limited for the same reasons as those of Claim 1.
- the invention stated in Claim 3 relates to a hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet for a prepainted steel sheet, which is produced by coating in the same hot dipping bath as that of Claim 1 or 2, which further contains 0.01 to 1.5 wt.% of one or more metals selected from the group consisting of Mg, Mn and Cu.
- the invention stated in Claim 4 relates to a process for producing a hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet for a prepainted steel sheet, wherein the temperature of the starting steel sheet dipped in the hot dipping bath is lower than that of the bath in the step of coating in the hot dipping bath according to claim 1, 2 or 3.
- the feature of the invention stated in Claim 4 resides in that the temperature of the steel sheet dipped in the hot dipping bath at the dipping time is adjusted to a temperature lower than that of the bath.
- the temperature of the steel sheet to be dipped in the hot-dip Zn-Al alloy coating bath is adjusted to a temperature lower than the bath temperature by at most 80°C, particularly by 10 to 60°C.
- the temperature of the steel sheet to be dipped in a hot dipping bath is kept higher than a temperature of the bath from the viewpoints of the adhesion and the heating effect of the bath. Since, the steel sheet is thicker than the coating layer and the temperature of the steel sheet is high, the cooling of the coating layer starts with its surface and the interface of the coating layer with the steel sheet is solidified layer. Consequently, the Al concentration is high in the interface and the thickness of the alloy layer is increased to thereby reduce the workability and the self-sacrificing anticorrosive effect on the steel, while the Al concentration on the coating layer surface is low to reduce the corrosion resistance.
- the temperature of the steel sheet dipped in the hot dipping bath is kept below the bath temperature contrary to the conventional processes in order to initiate the cooling of the coating metal on the side facing to the steel sheet.
- the inventors have succeeded in reducing the Al concentration on the interface side and reducing the amount of the alloy layer formed.
- the self-sacrificing anticorrosive power (resistance to the initial red rust formation) of Zn is retained. Further, since the alloy layer formed is thin, no crack is formed in the bent part.
- the Al concentration in the surface region of the coating layer is increased and, therefore, the corrosion resistance of the surface is improved (namely, the weight loss due to corrosion is reduced).
- the feature of the present invention thus resides in that the temperature of the steel sheet to be dipped in the hot-dip Zn-Al alloy coating bath is kept below the temperature of the bath and the temperature of the steel sheet to be pulled out of the bath is kept below the bath temperature as far as possible in order that the solidification of the coating layer be started with the part in contact with the steel sheet and is completed as soon as possible.
- Such a process has never been known as yet.
- the hot dipping bath temperature is such that Zn and Al are molten to form a homogeneous melt, for example, about 430 to 480°C.
- the temperature of the steel sheet to be dipped in the hot dipping bath is preferably kept below the bath temperature by 10 to 80 °C.
- the temperature of the steel sheet to be dipped in the hot dipping bath is kept in the range of 400 to 470°C.
- the Al concentration in the grain boundaries where solidification occurs later is higher than that in the grain centers where crystallization occurs in an initial stage.
- the Al concentration in the surface layer is uneven and it forms a honey-comb pattern in which parts of a relatively low Al concentration are surrounded by parts of a high Al concentration.
- the area of the parts of the high Al concentration is large enough for improving the corrosion resistance of the whole surface.
- the Al-Zn crystals are formed also in the surface layer upon cooling of the surface layer, also the homogeneous dispersion of Al in the surface layer is accelerated, since the cooling velocity of the whole coating layer is increased by dipping the steel sheet kept at a low temperature. Further the bath is preferably a low temperature bath.
- the invention stated in Claim 5 relates to a process for producing a hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet for a prepainted steel sheet, wherein the steel sheet is taken out of the hot dipping bath and then the amount of the molten zinc-aluminum alloy deposited on the steel sheet is controlled with a gas wiping type of equipment for controlling the amount of molten zinc-aluminum alloy deposit under conditions comprising a slit clearance of 0.6 to 2.4 mm, a distance between front and back nozzles of 10 to 40 mm and an ejecting pressure of gas of 0.1 to 2.0 kg/cm 2 in the step of coating in the hot dipping bath according to
- the invention stated in Claim 6 relates to a process for producing a hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet for a prepainted steel sheet according to Claim 4, wherein the steel sheet is taken out of the hot dipping bath and then the amount of the molten zinc-aluminum alloy deposited on the steel sheet is controlled with a gas wiping type of equipment for controlling the amount of molten zinc-aluminum alloy deposit under conditions comprising a slit clearance of 0.6 to 2.4 mm, a distance between front and back nozzles of 10 to 40 mm and an ejecting pressure of gas of 0.1 to 2.0 kg/cm 2 .
- the Pb concentration in the hot dipping bath must be controlled to 100 ppm or less in order to obtain an excellent adhesion after aging.
- the surface of the coating layer has a ripping pattern to impair the appearance thereof unfavorably.
- the inventors After intensive investigations made for the purpose of eliminating such a pattern from the surface, the inventors have succeeded in obtaining an excellent appearance by controlling the amount of the molten zinc-aluminum alloy deposit with a gas wiping type of equipment under conditions comprising a nozzle slit clearance of 0.6 to 2.4 mm, a distance between front and back nozzles of 10 to 40 mm and an ejecting pressure of gas of 0.1 to 2.0 kg/cm 2 .
- the lower limit is 10 mm, because when it is less than 10 mm, the vibrating strip is apt to be brought into contact with the nozzle to cause troubles.
- the upper limit is 40 mm, because a shorter distance gives a better result and the appearance is impaired when it exceeds 40 mm. 3. Ejecting pressure of gas:
- the lower limit is 0.1 kg/cm 2 because when it is below 0.1 kg/cm 2 , the amount of the deposition cannot be controlled.
- the upper limit is 2.0 kg/cm 2 because when it exceeds 2.0 kg/cm 2 , the energy loss is large and a more consistent appearance can be obtained with a lower pressure.
- the control of the amount of the deposition is necessary in order to conform to Z 27 specified in JIS G 3302 or G 90 specified in ASTM A 525.
- the invention stated in Claim 7 relates to a process for producing a hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet for a prepainted steel sheet according to Claim 5 or 6, wherein the hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet is reheated to a temperature above melting temperature of the coating layer.
- the reheating temperature is preferably 420 °C or higher, because the appearance of the sheet can be improved at such a high temperature.
- the reheating temperature is preferably 420 °C or above, a high temperature is not preferred from the viewpoints of both energy and equipment cost. Thus, a temperature in the range of 420 oC to 560 °C is more preferred.
- the effect similar to that of Claim 4 can be obtained even when the temperature of the steel sheet dipped in the hot dipping bath is higher than that of the hot dipping bath, because the temperature of the steel sheet is lower than that of the coating layer in the step of melting the coating layer surface again and, therefore, the recrystallization of the molten coating metal starts with the side in contact with the steel sheet.
- the alloy layer formed between the steel sheet and the coating layer is not molten again, because it has a high melting point and, therefore, the Al distribution in the alloy layer is kept unchanged and the adhesion of the coating layer is kept high.
- the invention stated in Claim 8 relates to a process for producing a hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet for a prepainted steel sheet according to Claim 5 or 6, wherein the hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet is cooled to the solidifying point thereof at a rate of at least 10°C/sec.
- the lower limit of the cooling rate is 10oC/sec, because stable corrosion resistance can be obtained at a cooling rate of at least 10°C/sec.
- a cooling rate of 150°C/sec or less is desirable from the viewpoints of the energy cost and equipment.
- the invention stated in Claim 9 relates to a prepainted steel sheet having excellent workability and corrosion resistance which comprises the hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet according to Claim 1 to 3 or the hot-dip zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel sheet produced according to the process of Claims 4 to 8, a layer formed thereon by chemical conversion treatment and further a surface painting film layer formed thereon.

- the chemical conversion treatment is conducted in order to improve the corrosion resistance of the sheet and the adhesion of the paint to the steel sheet.
- the chemical conversion treatments include, for example, a treatment with a phosphate such as zinc phosphate, iron phosphate, manganese phosphate or cobalt phosphate, and a treatment with a chromate such as electrolytic chromate treatment and applied chromate treatment.
- under-painting paints those ordinarily used for the production of prepainted steel sheets can be used. They include, for example, paints prepared by mixing coloring pigment, rustproof pigment, body, etc. in a resin solution mainly comprising a resin such as epoxy, oil-free polyester, acrylic or urethane resin. Among them, an under-painting paint mainly comprising the epoxy resin which has excellent adhesion and corrosion resistance or the oil-free polyester resin which has also a good workability is preferred.
- the thickness of the under-paint is 1 to 15 ⁇ , preferably 2 to 12 ⁇ , because the corrosion resistance and scratch resistance are further improved with a thickness of at least 2 ⁇ and the workability is further improved with that of 12 ⁇ or less. When the thickness exceeds 12 ⁇ , the cost is increased.
- the rustproof pigment may contain 5 to 35% of at least one of strontium chromate, zinc chromate, red lead, zinc plumbate, calcium plumbate, lead cyanamide, basic lead chromate, basic lead silicochromate, basic zinc molybdate and calcium zinc molybdate depending on the use and environments.

- the top-painting paint comprises preferably acrylic resin, oil-free polyester resin, silicone polyester resin, silicone acrylic resin, alkyd resin, polyurethane resin, polyimide resin, polyamide resin, fluororesin or the like.
- the thickness of the top-paint is 8 to 50 ⁇ , preferably 10 to 45 ⁇ , because the scratch resistance, workability and weather resistance are improved with the thickness of at least 10 ⁇ but the cost is increased when the thickness is beyond 45 ⁇ .
- the invention stated in Claim 10 relates to a prepainted steel sheet according to Claim 9, wherein the chemical conversion layer is one formed by treating the sheet with a chromic acid solution containing silica having an average particle diameter of 50 m ⁇ and specific surface area of 200 m 2 /g in such a manner that the amount of the coating film after drying will be 50 to 250 mg/m 2 to impart an excellent scratch resistance.

Abstract
On produit une feuille d'acier revêtue d'un alliage de zinc-aluminium en la revêtant dans un bain d'immersion à chaud comprenant de 0,3 à 3,5 % en poids d'Al, 100 ppm ou moins de Pb, le solde étant du Zn et des impuretés inévitables. Le bain peut contenir en outre des quantités déterminées de Si ainsi que du Mg, du Mn et/ou du Cu. On décrit également un procédé de production de ladite feuille d'acier revêtue, dans lequel la température de la feuille d'acier destinée à être immergée dans le bain chaud est régulée de manière à être inférieure à la température du bain et, si nécessaire, la quantité de l'alliage de zinc-aluminium en fusion déposé sur la feuille d'acier est régulée à l'aide d'un équipement spécial du type à gaz d'essuyage. Si nécessaire, la feuille d'acier revêtue est réchauffée à une température supérieure à la température de fusion de la couche de revêtement. On décrit également une feuille d'acier prépeinte préparée à partir de ladite feuille d'acier.A steel sheet coated with a zinc-aluminum alloy is produced by coating it in a hot immersion bath comprising from 0.3 to 3.5% by weight of Al, 100 ppm or less of Pb, the balance being Zn and unavoidable impurities. The bath can also contain determined quantities of Si as well as Mg, Mn and / or Cu. A method of producing said coated steel sheet is also described, in which the temperature of the steel sheet intended to be immersed in the hot bath is regulated so as to be lower than the temperature of the bath and, if necessary, the quantity of molten zinc-aluminum alloy deposited on the steel sheet is regulated using special equipment of the wiping gas type. If necessary, the coated steel sheet is heated to a temperature above the melting temperature of the coating layer. A prepainted steel sheet prepared from said steel sheet is also described.
