Abstract
Description
L'invention concerne un procédé de préparation d'un objet en tôle émaillée.The invention relates to a method for preparing a sheet metal object. enameled.
Pour émailler une tôle d'acier, on peut déposer successivement sur la tôle une couche d'émail de "masse" puis une couche d'émail dite de "couverte".To enamel a steel sheet, you can successively deposit on the sheet a layer of enamel of "mass" then a layer of enamel known as of "covered".
La couche d'émail de masse sert de couche d'accrochage à la tôle.The mass enamel layer serves as a bonding layer to the sheet.
La couche de couverte est la couche de finition.The cover layer is the top layer.
Mais on peut également émailler une tôle sans utiliser de couche d'accrochage, donc sans émail de masse : c'est ce qu'on appelle communément l'émaillage "en mode direct".But you can also enamel a sheet without using a layer attachment, therefore without mass enamel: this is called commonly "direct mode" enameling.
Dans l'émaillage en mode direct, comme dans toute technique d'émaillage, on peut aussi superposer plusieurs couches d'émail de couverte.In direct enamelling, as in any technique enameling, several layers of covered enamel can also be superimposed.
Pour émailler une tôle en mode direct, par application directe d'une couche de couverte, on prépare la surface métallique à émailler afin d'obtenir, notamment, une bonne adhérence de la couche d'émail à la tôle.To enamel a sheet in direct mode, by direct application of a cover layer, the metal surface to be glazed is prepared in order to obtain, in particular, good adhesion of the enamel layer to the sheet.
Pour réaliser un objet en tôle d'acier ainsi émaillé, comme une marmite ou une casserole, à partir d'une bande de tôle d'acier découpée, on procède aux opérations suivantes dans l'ordre suivant : mise en forme, décapage, traitement de surface, enduction de fritte d'émail de couverte et cuisson de l'émail.To make an object out of sheet steel thus enamelled, like a pot or a pan, from a strip of cut steel sheet, we proceed to following operations in the following order: shaping, pickling, treatment of surface, coating of covered enamel frit and firing of the enamel.
Avant de mettre en forme la tôle, il convient généralement d'appliquer un agent lubrifiant, par exemple une couche d'huile et après cette opération, il convient alors de dégraisser la tôle (juste avant décapage).Before shaping the sheet, it is generally advisable to apply a lubricating agent, for example a layer of oil and after this operation it then degrease the sheet (just before pickling).
La tôle qu'on utilise pour la mise en forme est généralement déjà traitée pour la protection temporaire contre la corrosion (dans les conditions de transport et de stockage) ; ce traitement de surface de protection, appliqué à l'issue de la fabrication des bandes de tôle, peut également avoir une fonction lubrifiante.The sheet used for shaping is generally already processed for temporary corrosion protection (under the conditions of transport and storage); this protective surface treatment, applied to the outcome of the production of sheet metal strips, can also have a function lubricant.
Pour préparer la surface métallique à l'émaillage direct, on décape donc d'abord la surface métallique puis on la traite par une solution contenant du nickel comme cation formateur de couche ; ce traitement de surface est aussi appelé "nickelage".To prepare the metal surface for direct enameling, we therefore pickle first the metal surface then it is treated with a solution containing nickel as a layer forming cation; this surface treatment is also called "nickel plating".
Décapage et traitement de surface sont généralement réalisés par immersion ou par aspersion.Stripping and surface treatment are generally carried out by immersion or by sprinkling.
Pour obtenir une bonne adhérence et une bonne qualité de surface d'émail, il convient généralement de pratiquer un décapage profond, correspondant à un enlèvement de matière supérieur à 15 g/m2/face, couramment de l'ordre de 25 g/m2/face de surface à émailler.To obtain good adhesion and good surface quality of enamel, it is generally advisable to practice a deep pickling, corresponding to a material removal of more than 15 g / m2 / side, commonly of the order of 25 g / m2 / face of surface to be glazed.
Ce décapage est nécessaire pour créer en surface une microrugosité facilitant l'adhérence de l'émail.This pickling is necessary to create micro-roughness on the surface facilitating the adhesion of the enamel.
Ce décapage profond est un inconvénient dans la mesure où il engendre des volumes très importants de boues à traiter.This deep pickling is a drawback insofar as it generates very large volumes of sludge to be treated.
Comme cette opération de décapage doit être réalisée après la mise en forme, elle est généralement réalisée chez les émailleurs eux-mêmes, qui ne disposent généralement pas d'installations de traitement d'effluents adéquates.As this pickling operation must be carried out after the form, it is generally performed by the enamellers themselves, who do not generally do not have adequate effluent treatment facilities.
Le traitement de ces boues de décapage représente donc un handicap très important.The treatment of this pickling sludge therefore represents a handicap Very important.
L'invention a pour but de pallier ce handicap en déplaçant l'opération de décapage avant la mise en forme, chez le producteur de bandes de tôles lui-même, qui, lui, dispose d'installations performantes et économiques de traitement de boues adaptées à une production de masse et également consacrées au traitement des effluents d'autres opérations, comme celles de laminage de bandes d'acier.The invention aims to overcome this handicap by shifting the operation of pickling before shaping, at the producer of sheet metal strips himself, which has efficient and economical facilities for sludge treatment suitable for mass production and also dedicated to the treatment of effluents from other operations, such as rolling of steel strips.
Le document FR 2 196 400 décrit un procédé de préparation d'un objet en tôle émaillée en mode direct qui comprend les opérations suivantes dans l'ordre suivant:
- en vue d'obtenir une surface dépolie (à émailler), on attaque chimiquement par électrolyse la tôle d'acier ou, selon l'exemple 4, on procède à un décapage chimique à l'acide sulfurique jusqu'à enlever 21,5 g/m2 de matière ;
- on applique sur la surface dépolie une solution aqueuse de verre soluble de manière de manière à former, après séchage, une couche temporaire de verre soluble ;
- optionnellement, on applique une couche de cire sur la couche de verre soluble ;
- on met en forme, notamment par emboutissage,
- on dégraisse et on lave à l'eau la surface à émailler,
- optionnellement, on effectue un traitement de nickelage,
- on enduit de fritte d'émail de couverte et on cuit l'émail.
- in order to obtain a frosted surface (to be enameled), the steel sheet is attacked chemically by electrolysis or, according to Example 4, a chemical pickling is carried out with sulfuric acid until 21.5 g is removed / m2 of material;
- an aqueous solution of soluble glass is applied to the frosted surface so as to form, after drying, a temporary layer of soluble glass;
- optionally, a layer of wax is applied to the layer of soluble glass;
- it is shaped, in particular by stamping,
- the surface to be glazed is degreased and washed with water,
- optionally, a nickel-plating treatment is carried out,
- cover with enamel frit and cover and cook the enamel.
Selon ce document :
- le verre soluble est une matière semblable à la couche protectrice pour l'émaillage si bien que les résidus de verre soluble n'ont aucune action nuisible sur la couche pour l'émaillage ;
- la couche de verre soluble, de 2 à 5 µm d'épaisseur, est également utile pour la protection de la surface en vue de la mise en forme ; elle permet d'améliorer sensiblement l'aptitude à l'emboutissage profond ; elle a donc une fonction de « prélubrifiant » ;
- les solutions de verre soluble étant elles-mêmes employées comme dégraissant, la couche de verre soluble est facilement dégraissable, notamment après mise en forme ;
- la couche de verre soluble apporte une protection contre la corrosion à condition d'être elle-même recouverte d'une couche imperméable à l'humidité, comme la couche de cire citée en option ou comme une couche protectrice de lubrifiant (huile).
- soluble glass is a material similar to the protective layer for enameling so that the residues of soluble glass have no harmful effect on the layer for enameling;
- the layer of water glass, 2 to 5 µm thick, is also useful for protecting the surface with a view to shaping; it makes it possible to appreciably improve the aptitude for deep drawing; it therefore has a “pre-lubricant” function;
- since the solutions of soluble glass are themselves used as a degreaser, the layer of soluble glass is easily degreasable, in particular after shaping;
- the layer of soluble glass provides protection against corrosion provided that it is itself covered with a moisture-impermeable layer, such as the optional wax layer or as a protective layer of lubricant (oil).
Selon le procédé décrit dans ce document FR 2 196 400, on voit donc que pour pouvoir stocker les tôles décapées avant mise en forme, sans risque de corrosion tout en profitant d'un traitement de prélubrification, il convient d'appliquer sur la tôle décapée au moins deux couches : une couche de verre soluble et une couche de cire.According to the process described in this document FR 2 196 400, we therefore see only to be able to store pickled sheets before shaping, without risk corrosion while taking advantage of a pre-lubrication treatment, apply at least two layers on the pickled sheet: a layer of glass soluble and a layer of wax.
L'application de ces deux couches nécessite deux traitements successifs.The application of these two layers requires two successive treatments.
L'invention a également pour but d'appliquer, en un seul traitement, une couche, facilement dégraissable, de protection temporaire contre la corrosion et de prélubrification.The invention also aims to apply, in a single treatment, a layer, easily degreasable, temporary protection against corrosion and pre-lubrication.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un procédé de préparation d'un objet en tôle d'acier émaillé en mode direct, caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend les opérations suivantes dans l'ordre suivant :
- une opération de décapage suivie immédiatement d'une seule opération de traitement de surface de protection temporaire contre la corrosion et de prélubrification,
- une opération de mise en forme suivie d'un dégraissage,
- une opération de traitement de surface dit de nickelage,
- et une opération d'émaillage direct à proprement parler,
- a pickling operation immediately followed by a single operation of surface treatment for temporary corrosion protection and pre-lubrication,
- a shaping operation followed by a degreasing,
- a so-called nickel-plating surface treatment operation,
- and a direct enameling operation proper,
L'invention peut également présenter une ou plusieurs des caractéristiques suivantes :
- le traitement de surface dit de protection temporaire contre la corrosion et de prélubrification est réalisé par application d'une couche uniforme d'huile, par application d'une couche uniforme d'émulsion aqueuse d'huile ou par application d'une solution aqueuse contenant, en solution, un éthoxylat d'alcool gras et un inhibiteur de corrosion.
- on fixe les conditions de nickelage pour obtenir un dépôt compris entre 0,5 et 2,5 g/m2 à la surface de l'objet à émailler.
- la période séparant l'opération de décapage et de traitement de surface et l'opération de mise en forme est supérieure à 1 jour.
- the so-called temporary corrosion protection and pre-lubrication surface treatment is carried out by applying a uniform layer of oil, by applying a uniform layer of aqueous oil emulsion or by applying an aqueous solution containing , in solution, a fatty alcohol ethoxylate and a corrosion inhibitor.
- the nickel-plating conditions are fixed to obtain a deposit of between 0.5 and 2.5 g / m2 on the surface of the object to be enamelled.
- the period between the pickling and surface treatment operation and the shaping operation is more than 1 day.
Grâce à l'invention, alors qu'on procède au décapage directement sur la bande de tôle, la surface, décapée puis traitée en une seule opération à la fois pour la protection temporaire contre la corrosion et pour la prélubrification, conserve cependant une réactivité suffisante, après mise en forme et dégraissage, pour rendre efficace le traitement de nickelage.Thanks to the invention, while stripping is carried out directly on the sheet metal strip, the surface, pickled and then treated in one operation at a time for temporary corrosion protection and for pre-lubrication, however retains sufficient reactivity, after shaping and degreasing, to make the nickel-plating treatment effective.
Pour décaper la tôle, on peut alors profiter d'installations industrielles très performantes de décapage de bandes de tôle.To strip the sheet, we can then take advantage of very industrial plants effective stripping of sheet metal strips.
Ce nouvel ordre des opérations de fabrication permet de fournir des tôles déjà décapées, aptes à l'émaillage direct après une éventuelle mise en forme et un simple traitement de dégraissage puis de nickelage ; l'émailleur n'a plus besoin d'installations de décapage et se trouve libéré du traitement des boues de décapage. This new order of manufacturing operations makes it possible to supply sheets already pickled, suitable for direct enameling after possible shaping and a simple degreasing and nickel plating treatment; the enameller no longer has needs stripping facilities and is freed from sludge treatment pickling.
L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui va suivre, donnée à titre d'exemple.The invention will be better understood on reading the description which will follow, given as an example.
Par exemple, on part d'une bande de tôle d'acier de 1 mm d'épaisseur sortant d'un train de laminage à froid, plus précisément de la cage d'écrouissage.For example, we start with a strip of sheet steel 1 mm thick leaving a cold rolling train, more precisely from the stand hardening.
On choisit une nuance d'acier DC 03 ED ou DC 04 ED selon la norme EN 10209.We choose a steel grade DC 03 ED or DC 04 ED according to the EN standard 10209.
Selon l'invention, on décape la bande de tôle puis on réalise, en une seule opération, un premier traitement de surface dit de « protection temporaire contre la corrosion » et de « prélubrification ».According to the invention, the strip of sheet metal is stripped and then, in one single operation, a first surface treatment called "temporary protection" against corrosion ”and“ pre-lubrication ”.
La composition du bain de décapage et les conditions de décapage sont connues en elles-mêmes ; on utilise par exemple des bains acides sulfuriques et on décape dans des conditions adaptées pour enlever environ 25 g/m2 sur chaque face de bande de tôle.The composition of the pickling bath and the pickling conditions are known in themselves; for example sulfuric acid baths are used and we pickle under suitable conditions to remove about 25 g / m2 on each side of sheet metal strip.
Selon l'invention, afin que l'opération de mise en forme ultérieure ne
dégrade pas la réactivité de surface apportée par l'opération de décapage, ce
premier traitement de surface est choisi selon l'invention de manière à
satisfaire les trois critères suivants :
On estime ne pouvoir observer aucune trace significative du traitement après dégraissage de la surface, lorsqu'en appliquant un film d'eau sur la surface dégraissée, on n'observe aucune rupture du film d'eau sur ladite surface.It is estimated that no significant trace of treatment can be observed after degreasing the surface, when by applying a film of water to the degreased surface, no rupture of the water film is observed on said area.
Il existe plusieurs types de traitements de surface dits « de protection temporaire contre la corrosion » et de « prélubrification » qui sont susceptibles de satisfaire ces trois critères, comme par exemple l'application, sur la surface décapée :
- d'une composition huileuse telle que décrite par exemple dans le brevet FR 2 562 907 ; cette composition contient : un mélange A comprenant 95 à 65% en poids d'huile minérale ayant une viscosité de l'ordre de 15.10-6 à 30.10-6 m2/s à 40°C et de 5 à 35% d'un produit comprenant un alkylarylsulfonate calcique basique et un pétrolatum oxydé, un sel calcique de pétrolatum oxydé ou un sulfonate calcique de pétrole, et un mélange B, en une quantité de 0,75 à 5% en poids calculé sur le poids de mélange A, contenant un acide aliphatique supérieur saturé ayant de 12 à 18 atomes de carbone, un agent mouillant non ionique saturé et un agent anti-oxydant phénolique thermiquement stable. L'application de 2 g/m2/face d'une huile référencée V14 de la Société FUCHS convient à cet effet.
- d'une émulsion aqueuse d'huile telle que décrite dans le brevet FR 2 692 912 de la Société SOLLAC ou WO 91/05 033 de la Société HENKEL. De préférence, après séchage, la densité surfacique de ladite couche est inférieure ou égale à 0,5 g/m2/face.L'application de 0,5 g/m2/face d'une émulsion référencée AQUASAFE 21 ou AQUA 2 de la Société CASTROL convient à cet effet.
- d'une solution aqueuse contenant, en solution, un éthoxylate d'alcool gras et un inhibiteur de corrosion.
- an oily composition as described for example in patent FR 2,562,907; this composition contains: a mixture A comprising 95 to 65% by weight of mineral oil having a viscosity of the order of 15.10 -6 to 30.10 -6 m 2 / s at 40 ° C and from 5 to 35% of a product comprising a basic calcium alkylarylsulfonate and an oxidized petrolatum, a calcium salt of oxidized petrolatum or a petroleum calcium sulfonate, and a mixture B, in an amount of 0.75 to 5% by weight calculated on the weight of mixture A, containing a saturated higher aliphatic acid having 12 to 18 carbon atoms, a saturated nonionic wetting agent and a thermally stable phenolic antioxidant. The application of 2 g / m 2 / face of an oil referenced V14 from the company FUCHS is suitable for this purpose.
- of an aqueous oil emulsion as described in patent FR 2 692 912 from the company SOLLAC or WO 91/05 033 from the company HENKEL. Preferably, after drying, the surface density of said layer is less than or equal to 0.5 g / m2 / face. The application of 0.5 g / m 2 / face of an emulsion referenced AQUASAFE 21 or AQUA 2 of CASTROL is suitable for this purpose.
- an aqueous solution containing, in solution, a fatty alcohol ethoxylate and a corrosion inhibitor.
Les opérations de rinçage et de séchage qui accompagnent le décapage et le premier traitement de surface sont connues en elles-mêmes et ne sont pas décrites ici en détail.The rinsing and drying operations which accompany the pickling and the first surface treatment are known in themselves and are not not described here in detail.
Avantageusement le décapage et ce premier traitement de surface sont réalisés en ligne après l'écrouissage, à cadence élevée, par exemple à la vitesse de 30 m/min. ou au delà ; le temps de décapage peut être notablement réduit par rapport aux temps de décapage des procédés de préparation de l'art antérieur: par exemple 2 à 25 secondes par rapport à couramment plus de cinq minutes dans l'art antérieur. Advantageously, pickling and this first surface treatment are performed online after work hardening, at high speed, for example at speed of 30 m / min. or beyond; pickling time can be significantly reduced compared to the stripping times of art preparation processes anterior: for example 2 to 25 seconds compared to commonly more than five minutes in the prior art.
Les boues de décapage sont ici traités d'une manière économique dans des installations de traitement d'effluents prévues par ailleurs pour traiter les effluents de laminage et d'écrouissage.The pickling sludge is treated economically here in effluent treatment facilities provided elsewhere to treat effluents from rolling and work hardening.
La tôle décapée et traitée (premier traitement) en une seule opération peut être alors considérée comme un produit commercial intermédiaire, apprêté à l'émaillage direct.The pickled and treated sheet (first treatment) in a single operation can then be considered as an intermediate commercial product, primed to direct enameling.
Cette tôle est en effet généralement bobinée et expédiée vers les émailleurs.This sheet is in fact generally wound and sent to the enamellers.
Grâce au premier traitement de surface effectué après décapage, cette tôle résiste à la corrosion pendant les périodes de transport et de stockage, qui dépassent généralement une journée, et peuvent atteindre un à trois mois.Thanks to the first surface treatment performed after pickling, this sheet metal resists corrosion during transport and storage periods, which generally exceed one day, and can reach one to three months.
Les émailleurs procèdent ensuite aux opérations suivantes dans l'ordre suivant: mise en forme suivie du dégraissage, deuxième traitement de surface dit de « nickelage » et émaillage direct à proprement parler.The enamellers then proceed to the following operations in order next: shaping followed by degreasing, second surface treatment called "nickel plating" and direct enamelling itself.
On met en forme avec ou sans lubrification complémentaire de la prélubrification, généralement par emboutissage, et on dégraisse la pièce formée, par exemple dans une solution alcaline.It is shaped with or without additional lubrication of the pre-lubrication, usually by stamping, and the part is degreased formed, for example in an alkaline solution.
Grâce au premier traitement de surface, et même si on utilise une huile d'emboutissage classique pour la lubrification, le coefficient de frottement de la tôle contre les outils de mise en forme est plus faible qu'avec une tôle qui n'aurait pas été traitée selon les critères précédemment mentionnés, ce qui facilite l'opération de mise en forme.Thanks to the first surface treatment, and even if an oil is used conventional drawing for lubrication, the coefficient of friction of the sheet metal against the forming tools is weaker than with a sheet which would not have been treated according to the criteria mentioned above, which facilitates the shaping operation.
Après mise en forme, on procède ensuite directement au deuxième traitement de surface du procédé de préparation selon l'invention.After shaping, we then proceed directly to the second surface treatment of the preparation process according to the invention.
Ce traitement est d'un type classique de nickelage par une solution contenant des cations de nickel, connue en elle-même pour préparer une surface métallique à l'émaillage direct.This treatment is of a conventional type of nickel plating with a solution containing nickel cations, known in itself for preparing a metallic surface with direct enameling.
La solution contient par exemple des anions sulfates ou phosphites.The solution contains, for example, sulphate or phosphite anions.
De préférence, les conditions de nickelage sont adaptées d'une manière connue en elle-même pour obtenir un dépôt de 0,5 à 2,5 g/m2 à la surface de l'objet à émailler.Preferably, the nickel-plating conditions are adapted in a way known in itself to obtain a deposit of 0.5 to 2.5 g / m2 on the surface of the object to be glazed.
Les effluents de nickelage sont ceux qu'on trouve habituellement en amont des installations d'émaillage en direct de l'art antérieur et ne posent aucun problème particulier de traitement.The nickel-plating effluents are those usually found in upstream of the prior art direct enameling installations and do not pose no special treatment problems.
Les opérations de rinçage et de séchage qui accompagnent le nickelage sont connues en elles-mêmes et ne sont pas décrites ici en détail. Rinsing and drying operations that accompany nickel plating are known in themselves and are not described here in detail.
L'objet ainsi préparé selon l'invention est maintenant prêt pour l'émaillage direct.The object thus prepared according to the invention is now ready for enameling direct.
On enduit donc alors l'objet d'une seule couche d'émail de couverte que l'on cuit d'une manière connue en elle-même.The object is therefore coated with a single layer of covered enamel which it is cooked in a manner known in itself.
Selon l'invention, et alors même que la mise en forme est réalisée après décapage, on obtient une couche d'émail présentant une adhérence tout à fait comparable à celle qu'on obtiendrait dans un procédé classique où le décapage est réalisé après mise en forme ; ce résultat indique que, même après mise en forme, la surface, décapée et traitée une première fois, est restée suffisamment réactive et/ou microrugueuse pour rendre efficace le traitement de nickelage.According to the invention, and even when the shaping is carried out after pickling, one obtains a layer of enamel having a quite adhesion comparable to that which would be obtained in a conventional process where the pickling is carried out after shaping; this result indicates that even after shaping, the surface, stripped and treated a first time, is remained sufficiently reactive and / or microrough to make the nickel plating treatment.
Grâce à l'ordre des opérations de préparation de la tôle à l'émaillage et aux critères définissant le premier traitement de surface, on déplace avantageusement une partie de la préparation de surface pour le décapage, à savoir le décapage, avant la mise en forme : le décapage peut alors être effectué en continu sur la bande de tôle directement en aval du laminage, sur des installations industrielles de grande capacité qui bénéficient d'installations largement dimensionnées de traitement des effluents et des boues.Thanks to the order of operations for preparing the sheet for enameling and to the criteria defining the first surface treatment, we move advantageously part of the surface preparation for pickling, to know stripping, before shaping: stripping can then be performed continuously on the sheet metal strip directly downstream of the rolling, on large capacity industrial facilities that benefit from facilities widely dimensioned for effluent and sludge treatment.
Ce traitement de surface de « protection temporaire » et de « prélubrification » est beaucoup plus simple et efficace que le traitement décrit dans le document déjà cité FR 2 196 400.This “temporary protection” surface treatment and "Pre-lubrication" is much simpler and more effective than the treatment described in the document already cited FR 2 196 400.
Les produits de traitement de surface qu'on utilise au premier traitement sont en général facilement éliminés au moment du dégraissage, juste après la mise en forme, ce qui est nécessaire pour offrir une bonne réactivité de surface dans les étapes suivantes du procédé ; les effluents de dégraissage sont en général faciles à traiter.The surface treatment products used during the first treatment are generally easily removed during degreasing, just after shaping, which is necessary to provide good surface reactivity in the following process steps; degreasing effluents are in general easy to deal with.
L'exemple suivant illustre l'invention.The following example illustrates the invention.
A partir d'une tôle d'acier pour émaillage sortant directement d'un train de
laminage à froid, plus précisément de la cage d'écrouissage, on procède aux
opérations suivantes dans l'ordre suivant :
On obtient un objet en tôle émaillée dont la couche d'émail présente une qualité de surface et une adhérence proche de celle qu'on obtiendrait en procédant comme dans l'art antérieur, à savoir selon les mêmes opérations mais dans l'ordre suivant : 1/ En sortie de laminage, premier traitement de surface (protection temporaire contre la corrosion et prélubrification) - 2/ Après stockage éventuel, mise en forme suivie d'un dégraissage - 3/ Décapage - 4/ Deuxième traitement de surface (nickelage) - 5/ Emaillage direct.We obtain an enamelled sheet object whose enamel layer has a surface quality and an adhesion close to that which would be obtained in proceeding as in the prior art, namely according to the same operations but in the following order: 1 / At the end of rolling, first treatment of surface (temporary protection against corrosion and pre-lubrication) - 2 / After possible storage, shaping followed by degreasing - 3 / Pickling - 4 / Second surface treatment (nickel plating) - 5 / Direct enamelling.
