Das Verfahren der Phosphatierung wird in großem Umfang industriell zur Vorbereitung von Metalloberflächen für eine anschließende Lackierung eingesetzt. Die damit erzeugten Phosphatschichten bewirken u. a. eine bessere Haftung der Lackfilme auf dem Metall, erhöhen die Korrosionsbeständigkeit und hemmen die von Beschädigungsstellen im Lackfilm bei Korrosionsbeanspruchung ausgehende Lackunterwanderung. Die Schutzeigenschaften der Phosphatschichten werden weiter verbessert, wenn sie einer wässrigen passivierenden Nachspülung unterzogen werden.The process of phosphating is widely used industrially to prepare metal surfaces for subsequent painting. The phosphate layers generated with this cause u. a. better adhesion of the paint films to the metal, increase the corrosion resistance and inhibit the penetration of paint from damage points in the paint film when exposed to corrosion. The protective properties of the phosphate layers are further improved if they are subjected to an aqueous passivating rinse.
Gute anwendungstechnische Eigenschaften bieten die passivierenden Nachspülmittel auf Basis von sechs- und/oder dreiwertigem Chrom. Nachteilig ist jedoch die Toxizität der drei- und insbesondere der sechswertigen Chromverbindungen.The passivating rinsing agents based on hexavalent and / or trivalent chromium offer good application properties. However, the toxicity of the tri- and especially the hexavalent chromium compounds is disadvantageous.
In der US-A-4376000 wird ein chromfreies Nachspülmittel auf Basis von Polyvinylphenol beschrieben. Dieses muß aber in vergleichsweise hoher Konzentration angewendet werden, wodurch eine unerwünschte Abwasserbelastung, insbesondere durch den hohen zum Abbau erforderlichen Sauerstoffbedarf, hervorgerufen wird.US-A-4376000 describes a chrome-free rinse aid based on polyvinylphenol.
