Definitions

  • the present invention relates to heating apparatus or to be heated during use and comprising a self-cleaning coating.
  • Some heating devices such as iron soles or cooking appliances, have qualities of ease of use and efficiency, depending inter alia on the state and nature of the surface of their coating. .
  • the iron soles could be improved by the care given to the gliding qualities of the ironing surface, combined with the qualities allowing the easier spreading of the linen.
  • One way to obtain these qualities is to use enamelled soles with a smooth-looking enamel, possibly with thicker lines to spread the fabric during the movement of the iron.
  • Other metal soles treated mechanically and / or covered or not with a deposit to facilitate sliding can also be suitable for a satisfactory use.
  • the sole can tarnish by carbonizing more or less diffuse on its ironing surface, and more or less incomplete, various organic particles captured by friction on ironed fabrics.
  • Iron sole coatings are known having a hard and resistant layer covered, as indicated by the patent. US4862609 by a layer improving the surface properties. But this patent does not indicate a solution to fight against fouling.
  • the walls of cooking appliances are also often covered with a smooth enamelled layer so that any splashes of grease or food do not adhere to the surface. Glazed self-cleaning surfaces are known, for example in furnaces and cooking utensils as described for example in the patent. US4029603 or the patent FR2400876 .
  • Baking apparatus wall claddings comprising two layers comprising the same oxidation catalyst chosen, inter alia, from among the oxides of platinoids ( US-3,566,855-A ).
  • the organic particles in contact with the outer layer of the coating are oxidized when the apparatus is heated. Furthermore, the synergistic effect obtained by the particular combination of an inner layer comprising a specific oxidation catalyst and an outer layer comprising a specific oxidation catalyst different from that of the inner layer makes it possible to obtain a coating having a particularly high catalytic activity. Thus, the surface of the coating is regenerated very quickly.
  • the grease projections present on the wall of the oven are oxidized hot, the solid residue is detached from the wall which is kept clean.
  • the adhesion of the coating to the metal support is particularly good.
  • This improved adhesion increases the friction resistance of the coating, this property being particularly advantageous in the case of an iron soleplate, for example.
  • heating apparatus is intended to mean any apparatus, article or utensil which, during its operation, reaches a temperature of at least 45 ° C. and preferably at least 90 ° C.
  • the device can reach this temperature operating by means of its own, such as a heating base integrated in the apparatus and provided with heating elements, or by external means.
  • Such appliances are, for example, iron soles, cooking appliances, ovens, grills, kitchen utensils.
  • the outer layer of the coating according to the invention comprises an oxidation catalyst chosen from platinum oxide.
  • platinum is meant, within the meaning of the present application, the elements having properties similar to those of platinum, and in particular, in addition to platinum, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium and iridium.
  • the outer layer comprises an oxidation catalyst selected from palladium oxides, platinum oxides and mixtures thereof.
  • oxidation catalysts are well known in themselves, as well as their methods of obtaining, without it being necessary to describe in detail their methods of preparation respectively.
  • platinum as an oxidation catalyst, its catalytically active form can be obtained by calcination or decomposition of a chloroplatinic acid salt or any other precursor.
  • any oxidation catalyst selected according to the present invention must remain sufficiently stable at the operating temperature of the device, and within the limits of the useful life of the device.
  • the surface of the outer layer is in direct contact with the ambient air and organic soils.
  • organic soils means any combustible or oxidizable substance in contact with the ambient air, completely or partially.
  • the oxidation catalyst selected from platinum oxide is distributed on and / or in the outer layer of the coating, where it is in contact with soiling, and in all or part of the outer layer, continuously or discontinuously.
  • the oxidation catalyst chosen from among the platinoids is distributed on the outer surface of the soleplate, intended to be brought into contact with the laundry.
  • the coating may comprise, in addition to the oxidation catalyst chosen from platinum oxide, any inner support layer catalytically inert with respect to oxidation.
  • This support adheres to the metal and catalytically inert support is preferably selected from aluminum or silicon compounds, such as for example alumina in divided form or particles, enamel, polytetrafluoroethylene and mixtures thereof.
  • the catalytically inert support with regard to oxidation is an enamel with a low porosity and / or roughness, at the micrometric and / or nanometric scale.
  • the enamel is for example a vitreous enamel.
  • the enamel should preferably be hard, have a good glide and resist the penetration of hot steam or humidity.
  • the outer layer of the coating preferably has a thickness, measured according to the RBS method described in Example 1 of the present application, ranging from 10 nanometers to 500 nanometers, and more preferably from 20 nanometers to 120 nanometers.
  • the oxidation catalyst of the outer layer being active at a coating temperature greater than or equal to 90 ° C, it cleans said coating when the latter is heated at least at such a temperature.
  • the inner layer comprises at least one oxidation catalyst chosen from among the oxides of the group Ib transition elements, preferably selected from copper oxides, silver oxides and mixtures thereof.
  • oxidation catalysts are well known in themselves, as well as their methods of obtaining, without it being necessary to describe in detail their methods of preparation respectively.
  • silver oxide as oxidation catalyst, it is possible to use as precursor commercial silver nitrate sold by Aldrich.
  • the catalytically active inner layer has a thickness, measured according to the RBS method described in Example 1 of the present application, ranging from 20 nanometers to 50 nanometers.
  • the oxidation catalyst present in the inner layer has a good affinity with the oxidation catalyst present in the outer layer. Indeed, after application on the support of the inner and outer layers, the support is annealed and, during this step, the oxidation catalyst present in the inner layer may diffuse into the outer layer and the oxidation catalyst present in the outer layer may diffuse into the inner layer.
  • the outer layer comprises, as oxidation catalyst, a palladium oxide and the inner layer comprises, as oxidation catalyst, a silver oxide.
  • the silver oxide has diffused into the outer layer and the outer layer thus comprises a mixture of palladium oxide and silver oxide. A particular synergistic effect on the catalytic activity of the coating has been observed in such an embodiment of the invention.
  • the heating apparatus is in the form of an iron soleplate comprising an ironing surface and the coating covers the ironing surface.
  • the heating apparatus is a cooking appliance comprising walls that can come into contact with organic soils and the coating covers these walls.
  • the catalyst acts at the operating temperature of the apparatus and the coating is kept clean as and when the device is used.
  • a second mode of operation during a so-called self-cleaning phase, before or after the use of the apparatus, the latter is set to a high temperature equal to or higher than the highest operating temperatures. is then left on hold for a predetermined time, during which the oxidation catalyst produces its effect. The user can maintain his device regularly, without waiting for a harmful fouling.
  • the metal support of the apparatus according to the invention can be based on any metal commonly used in the field of heating appliances such as aluminum, steel or titanium.
  • This metal support may itself be covered with a protective layer such as an enamelled layer before being covered by the coating of the present invention.
  • the apparatus comprises an enamel intermediate layer located between the metal support and the catalytically active inner layer of the coating.
  • the application of the catalytically active inner and outer layers to the metal support, covered or not by an enameled layer, is preferably by pyrolysis, by heating the surface to be coated and spray on this hot surface of a solution containing a precursor of the oxidation catalyst.
  • precursor any chemical or physico-chemical form of the oxidation catalyst, which is likely to lead to, or to release the latter by any appropriate treatment, for example pyrolysis.
  • the surface of the metal support to be covered is heated in an oven at about 400 ° C. and then placed very briefly, for example for a few seconds, under infrared, until a superficial temperature is reached. ranging from 400 ° C to 600 ° C.
  • This operation softens the surface of the support and makes it possible to increase the subsequent adhesion of the coating.
  • a solution of the precursor of the oxidation catalyst selected from Group Ib transition elements is sprayed onto the surface of the metal support. In contact with the surface, the precursor oxidizes and is fixed on the support and the water evaporates. A layer of thickness ranging from 20 to 50 nm is deposited. The support cools very quickly.
