Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Erzeugung einer korrosionsschützenden Überzugsschicht, wobei eine zu behandelnde Oberfläche mit einer wässrigen Behandlungslösung in Kontakt gebracht wird, die Chrom(III)-lonen und mindestens eine Phosphatverbindung enthält, wobei das Verhältnis der Stoffmengenkonzentration von Chrom(III)-Ionen zur Stoffmengenkonzentration der mindestens einen Phosphatverbindung (bezogen auf Orthophosphat berechnet) zwischen 1 : 1,5 und 1 : 3 liegt. Durch das Verfahren wird der Korrosionsschutz metallischer, insbesondere zinkhaltiger, mit Konversionsschichten versehener Oberflächen verbessert. Dabei werden die dekorativen und funktionellen Eigenschaften der Oberflächen erhalten oder verbessert. Außerdem werden die bekannten Probleme beim Einsatz von Chrom(VI)-haltigen Verbindungen oder von Nachbehandlungen mit Polymerdispersionen vermieden.The invention relates to a method for producing a corrosion-protective coating layer, wherein a surface to be treated is brought into contact with an aqueous treatment solution containing chromium (III) ions and at least one phosphate compound, wherein the ratio of the molar concentration of chromium (III) ions to the molar concentration of at least one phosphate compound (calculated based on orthophosphate) between 1: 1.5 and 1: 3. The process improves the corrosion protection of metallic, in particular zinc-containing, conversion-coated surfaces. The decorative and functional properties of the surfaces are maintained or improved. In addition, the known problems in the use of chromium (VI) -containing compounds or post-treatments with polymer dispersions are avoided.
