Definitions

  • the invention generally relates to the insoluble anode electrolytic tinning of steel strips, and more particularly to an insoluble anode electrolytic tinning process and the installation for its implementation.
  • tinplate tin-plated mild steel in the field of food packaging where it is known under the name of "tinplate”.
  • the manufacture of tinplate is generally made from coils ("coils") of mild steel or ultra-soft, which previously undergo a hot rolling operation, followed by a cold rolling operation. At the end of these rolling operations, steel strips of a few tenths of a millimeter thick are obtained. These strips are then annealed, passed after annealing in a cold rolling mill ("skin passed"), degreased, etched and tinned by an electrolytic tinning process (or “electro-tinning”). Tinning is typically followed by finishing operations such as coating remelting, passivation, and oiling.
  • Electro-tinning is a method of electroplating tin on a metal substrate, which consists in establishing the transfer of stannous Sn 2+ ions to the band to be coated according to the equilibrium: Sn 2+ + 2e - ⁇ Sn deposited
  • This reaction involves the availability of stannous ions in the bath.
  • the bath has an acid for lowering the pH and increasing the electrical conductivity. It also contains additives that contribute, inter alia, to stabilize the stannous ions by preventing them from oxidizing, and to prevent the formation of stannic oxide sludge caused by the oxidation of these stannous ions.
  • the first category of processes includes processes using a soluble anode, or so-called “soluble anode” processes
  • the second category of processes includes processes using a insoluble anode, or so-called “insoluble anode” processes.
  • soluble anode electro-tinning processes are used in electrolytic tinning installations which mainly use high purity tin anodes (that is to say anodes comprising at least 99.85% by weight of tin), which dissolve during the electrolysis and charge the bath in stannous Sn 2+ ions.
  • FIG. figure 1 An example of a "soluble anode” electro-tinning installation known to those skilled in the art is shown in FIG. figure 1 . It is a vertical electro-tinning installation 1, in which a strip to be coated 2 dives into a coating tank 3 (or electro-deposition tank) by winding on two conducting rollers 41, 42 and a bottom roll 5, thus forming a downstream strand 21 and a rising strand 22. The two conducting rollers 41, 42 feed the strip 2 with electrical current.
  • the tin soluble anodes 61, 62 are disposed on either side of the falling 21 and up 22 strands of the steel strip 2 to be coated. This steel strip 2 is connected to the negative pole (represented by the symbol "-" on the Fig.
  • an electric power generator (not shown on the figure 1 ) an electric power generator (not shown on the figure 1 ), and the soluble anodes 61, 62 are connected to the positive pole (represented by the symbol "+" on the figure 1 ) of this generator, thus constituting the anode.
  • the anodes 61, 62 and the descending 21 and 22 strands of the steel strip 2 are partially immersed in an electrolyte solution 7 (or electrolyte).
  • insoluble anode electro-tinning processes are therefore distinguished from those called “soluble anode” in that they lead to the formation of acid in the electrolytic bath correlatively to its depletion of tin. These continuous changes therefore require regeneration, the bath also continues.
  • the patent US5,312,539 proposes another "insoluble anode" tinning process, which uses an anionic membrane dialysis cell and a separate tin dissolution unit in which tin is supplied as an oxide directly dissolved in the acid, or as a tin anode, which is dissolved electrolytically.
  • Such a method has certain disadvantages, and in particular the cost of tin oxide and the need to create a strong concentration gradient on either side of the membrane, which imposes the implementation of a unit of concentration.
  • the necessary membrane surface (of the order of several thousand m 2 for continuous tinning installations of steel strips) makes the industrial application very problematic. .
  • the subject of the present invention is therefore an electro-tinning process and an installation for its implementation which remedy the drawbacks of the prior art, by the use of an electrodialysis membrane or cationic electrolysis membrane in the device. tin dissolution.
  • cationic electrodialysis membrane is meant, in the sense of the present invention, a cation permeable membrane and which is typically used in an electrodialysis process.
  • a cationic electrolysis membrane is understood to mean a membrane permeable to cations typically used in a process membrane electrolysis, but which can advantageously be used in the electrodialysis process according to the invention because of its robustness and its ability to withstand higher current densities than a cationic electrodialysis membrane.
  • the tin anode and the insoluble cathode are separated by a cationic electrodialysis or electrolysis membrane, defining a cathode zone integrating the cathode and an anode zone incorporating the tin anode, and a recirculation circuit of the electrolytic solution connects the electroplating tank to the anode zone of the tin dissolution reactor.
  • the presence of a cationic electrodialysis membrane in the dissolution reactor between the soluble anode of tin and the insoluble cathode allows the H + ions of the electrolytic solution to pass through the membrane, from the anode zone to the zone cathodic, while the Sn 2+ ions produced at the anode remain predominantly in the anode zone of the reactor.
  • the electrolytic solution contained therein is then recharged with stannous ions, and can then be directed back to the coating tank.
  • the recirculation circuit of the electrolytic solution between the electroplating tank and the anode zone of the tin dissolution reactor comprises an oxygen degassing tank, which is arranged upstream of the dissolution reactor in the direction of circulation of the electrolyte in this recirculation circuit.
  • This degassing tank makes it possible to effectively eliminate the gaseous oxygen formed at the insoluble anode of the coating tank.
  • the plant according to the invention also further comprises a degassing circuit of the electrolytic solution contained in the cathode zone of the tin dissolution reactor, this degassing circuit incorporating a hydrogen degassing tank.
  • the acid AH is advantageously chosen from sulphonic acids.
  • sulphonic acids that may be used according to the present invention, mention may be made especially of methanesulfonic acid and phenol-sulphonic acid.
  • the preferred sulfonic acid is methanesulfonic acid.
  • the SnA 2 compound will therefore advantageously be a tin sulphonate corresponding to the preferred sulphonic acids according to US Pat. invention: tin phenol sulphonate or tin methane sulphonate.
  • the present invention also relates to a process for the electrolytic tinning of a continuous steel strip in at least one plating tank filled with an electrolytic solution which comprises an acid AH and stannous Sn 2+ ions under form of a compound SnA 2 with A denoting an acid function, said tinning process employing a non-soluble anode and the metal strip constituting a cathode which are immersed in the electrolytic solution and between which a potential difference is applied, and the SnA 2 compound from a tin dissolution reactor, which comprises an insoluble cathode and a tin anode, between which a potential difference is applied.
