Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for passivating a metallic surface of a light metal component according to the preamble of claim 1.
- light metal components are common practice across industries.
- vehicle bodies in mixed construction for example, made of light metal and sheet steel parts to achieve a weight reduction.
- aluminum or magnesium materials or alloys thereof can be used as the light metal.
- a method for painting vehicle bodies is known. Consequently, the body shell is subjected to pre-treatment before the actual painting process, in which bodies are first degreased in a spray and Volltauchzone. Subsequently, the cleaned vehicle bodies are coated in a phosphating bath with a zinc phosphate layer. This serves as additional corrosion protection and as a primer for the subsequent primer. Subsequent to this pretreatment step, a cataphoresis primer is applied in the dipping process, in which the paint particles dissolved in the dipping bath are attracted to the body panel under applied electrical direct voltage and there to form a primer stick to it.
- the primed vehicle body is conveyed in a downstream continuous furnace in which the primer is baked.
- the provided with the primer vehicle body is led to another coating station in which a top coat is done in the desired color by the customer.
- the paint particles can be transported by an electrostatic field of high voltage standing support heads to the grounded body.
- This topcoat is also followed by a continuous furnace in which curing of the topcoat takes place at high temperature.
- a clearcoat is applied in a further coating station, which is also cured at high temperature in a subsequent drying step.
- the light metal components are more susceptible to corrosion than the steel components. Especially paint undercuts and filiform corrosion are more common damage patterns.
- a pickling passivation and the application of an anodic coating is common practice.
- the commercial coatings only partially provide the necessary protective effect against self-corrosion, filiform corrosion and / or paint infiltration. Especially when in contact with magnesium, the high potential difference should be regarded as promoting corrosion.
- DE102010060700 A discloses a corrosion protection method that is suitable for use in mixed construction.
- the commercially available coating systems for light metal components do not exhibit sufficient passivating behavior and are often too “noble” (that is to say too high corrosion potentials), especially with respect to magnesium. If magnesium alloys are electrochemically polarized by contact with more noble metals (eg aluminum), an exponential increase of the corrosion current occurs.
- the object of the invention is to provide a method for passivating the metallic surface of a light metal component, in which In particular with aluminum or magnesium, a sufficient passivation is achieved and a contact corrosion risk is reduced.
- the invention is based on the idea of orienting the composition of the passivation solution, at least in principle, to the composition of human blood. Surprisingly, it has been found that certain components of human blood produce a protective and passivating coating on metal surfaces, especially of light metal such as aluminum and / or magnesium. In a specific embodiment of the invention, concentrations of individual constituents can be simulated essentially unchanged in the passivation solution. Against this background, a special passivation step takes place in which a calcium phosphate-containing conversion layer which comprises oxides and hydroxides of the component material and of the passivation solution and contains amino acids is produced on the metallic component surface using an aqueous, in particular blood-like, passivation solution.
- the light metal component formed with the passivated metallic surface can be used across industries.
- the light metal component may optionally be used in the automotive sector, namely in a visible manner within the vehicle or as an externally visible outer part.
- the light metal component can be realized as a vehicle-inner-side display frame, an aggregate part, a chassis part or a component of a seat frame structure.
- the passivating anticorrosive primer (ie the conversion layer) produces a reduction of the self-corrosive currents by a factor of 10. In addition, an increase of the pitting potential by more than 0.5 V takes place with simultaneous reduction of the cathodic current densities.
- the conversion layer according to the invention is very favorably in contact with nobler materials (such as aluminum or steel). In addition, with the conversion layer according to the invention, there is a reduction in the contact corrosion currents with aluminum, steel, zinc, carbon fibers or CFRP. Furthermore, there is an increase in the penetration resistance by application of the coating (that is, the higher the penetration resistance, the lower the corrosion currents, the penetration resistance behaves inversely proportional to the corrosion currents).
- the conversion layer according to the invention generates low intrinsic corrosion currents and high passivity. In contact with aluminum and steel, only small contact corrosion currents result.
- the passivation solution results in a compact calcium phosphate and aluminum hydroxide / oxide-containing coating with amino acids.
- the layer morphology is constructed in the form of lumps, with intermediate cracks which, for example, provide a sufficiently large residual conductivity in the case of a subsequent KTL deposition in a coating process.
- the liquid starting component of the primer can penetrate into the cracks, resulting in good adhesion between the conversion layer and the primer.
- a compact calcium phosphate and magnesium hydroxide / oxide-containing coating is obtained, the layer morphology of which is also formed in a lump-shaped manner.
- the passivation solution may preferably have at least the following constituents as activators for activating the metal surface of the component: NaCl with a concentration between 5500 and 7500, in particular 6400 mg / l; and or KCl with a concentration between 300 and 500, in particular 400 mg / l.
- Both NaCl and KCl act as a source of chloride and assist in the activation of film formation which results in increased release of material ions from the surface of the device, which are necessary for film formation.
- the passivation solution can have at least the following amino acids as catalysts and layer formers: D-Ca pantothenate with a concentration between 2 and 5, in particular 4 mg / l, and / or L-isoleucine with a concentration between 80 and 120, in particular 105 mg / l.
- the amino acid L-isoleucine acts specifically as a layering agent that supports the adhesion of the conversion layer on the metallic component surface.
- the passivation layer may preferably contain calcium phosphates.
- the conversion layer may contain carbonaceous constituents.
- the passivation solution may contain NaHCO 3 .
- the formation of carbonate also depends on possibly supplied CO 2 .
- the passivating solution may contain Na pyruvate, with a concentration between 90 and 150 mg / l, in particular 110 mg / l.
- the aqueous passivating solution may contain at least the following constituents, the concentrations of which are reproduced in their concentrations in human blood: NaCl in particular 6400 mg / l KCl with in particular 400 mg / l NaH 2 PO 4 in particular 124 mg / l CaCl 2 in particular 200 mg / l NaHCO 3 in particular 3700 mg / l Na-pyruvate in particular 110 mg / l D-Ca pantothenate in particular 4 mg / l Myo-inositol with in particular 7.2 mg / l L-isoleucine in particular 105 mg / l
- the passivation reaction according to the invention can be carried out at a pH of about 7. In this case, the coating reaction is slow. Alternatively, the coating reaction can also take place in the acidic range. The coating reaction can be accelerated by increasing the temperature, reducing the pH and / or by polarization and / or increasing the partial pressure of CO 2 .
- the light metal component may be a vehicle part, which is first pretreated with the passivation solution according to the invention to form the conversion layer.
- the conversion layer of the component can be covered with at least one further layer in a subsequent coating process.
- the coating process has a first coating step, in which a light metal KTL layer, ie an organic protective layer, is formed. This is done in a dipping process (ie light metal KTL) under applied DC voltage, whereby the paint particles dissolved in the immersion bath are attracted to the metallic component and remain there to form the light metal KTL layer.
- a powder coating is then applied. This is done in a powder coating process with applied DC voltage.
- the special clod-shaped layer morphology with the crack structures already mentioned above is of particular importance. This ensures namely in the dipping process and in the powder coating process sufficient electrical residual conductivity through the conversion layer.
- the light metal component for example as a visible outer part
- the body shell is then subjected to a conventional body painting process together with the light metal component mounted thereon. That is, there is a cataphoresis primer of the body shell in the dipping process in which under applied electrical DC voltage dissolved in the immersion paint particles are attracted to the body shell and remain there to form a primer.
- the primed body shell is conveyed into a downstream continuous furnace, in which the primer is baked.
- the green body provided with the primer is led to another coating station in which a KTL process takes place.
- the KTL process is also followed by a continuous furnace in which the KTL layer burns in at high temperatures.
- a conventional automotive paint system applied which is also baked in a subsequent drying step at high temperature.
- the light metal component mounted on the green body is already precoated with a layer structure, namely with the conversion layer, the light metal KTL layer and the powder coating.
- the light metal component is thus electrically insulated, so that the electroplated in the bodyshell painting process KTL layer no longer adheres, while the conventional automotive paint system can be easily applied to the already coated light metal component.
- Fig. 1 is shown in a greatly enlarged partial sectional view of the example of the layer structure 1 of a paint coating on the metal surface 25 of a body part 3.
- the body part 3 made of light metal, such as aluminum, magnesium or an alloy thereof.
- the layer structure 1 directly on the workpiece surface 25 of the light metal component 3, a conversion layer 5, which serves for passivation and corrosion protection.
- the conversion layer 5 is coated by a light metal KTL layer 6.
- a powder coating 7 is formed, on which a conventional automotive paint system 9 is applied.
- the conversion layer 5 has a clod-shaped layer morphology, in which cracks 13 are formed between individual blocks 11.
- the cracks 13 provide in a later described KTL coating process for a sufficient residual conductivity between a KTL dip and the light metal material of the component 3.
- the liquid starting component of the light metal KTL layer 6 penetrate into the cracks and thereby increase the adhesive bond to the conversion layer 5.
- the Fig. 1 as well as the others Fig. 2 to 7 , are made with a view to a simpler understanding of the invention. Therefore, the figures are only roughly simplified representations that do not reflect a realistic layer structure 1. Thus, the conversion layer 5 actually has a layer thickness which lies in the ⁇ m range.
- a passivation step P (first) is carried out.
- a degreasing, grinding and / or pickling of the component 3 is performed.
- the thus cleaned component 3 is then subjected to a passivation according to the invention, in which it is immersed in a dipping bath of the passivation solution.
- the composition of the aqueous passivating solution is basically based on the composition of human blood.
- the passivation solution contains at least the following main components whose concentrations are identical to the concentrations in human blood: NaCl with 6400 mg / l KCl with 400 mg / l NaH 2 PO 4 with 124 mg / l CaCl 2 with 200 mg / l NaHCO 3 with 3700 mg / l Na-pyruvate with 110 mg / l D-Ca pantothenate with 4 mg / l Myo-inositol with 7.2 mg / l L-isoleucine with 105 mg / l
- NaCl and KCl in the passivation solution serves to activate the metal surface 25.
- the amino acids D-Ca-pantothenate and myo-inositol are mainly responsible for the coating process and also have a catalyzing effect.
- the components NaH 2 PO 4 and CaCl 2 support the coating process by incorporating the Ca 2+ and PO 4 3- ions into the conversion layer 5.
- the conversion layer 5 according to the invention also has carbonate-containing layer constituents. These are provided in the passivation solution by the component NaHCO 3 and CO 2 (from the atmosphere). Another component used for layer formation is the component Na pyruvate.
- the above amino acids are also components of human blood whose concentrations are almost unchanged.
- the passivation solution according to the invention is an aqueous treatment liquid whose pH is in the range of about 7 or in the acidic range.
- the passivation takes place in the immersion bath at a treatment temperature in the range of 18 to 25 ° C.
- the treatment time depends on the set pH value, the process temperature and optionally an additional polarization as well the required nominal thickness of the coating.
- the component 3 is fed to a rinsing / drying process.
- the coated with the conversion layer 5 component 3 is in the present application in the further process sequence (according to the Fig. 3 ) in a coating station 17 with a light metal KTL layer 6 (ie, an organic protective layer).
- the light metal KTL coating is carried out in common practice in the dipping process in which an electrical DC voltage is applied between the body 1 and the dip tank, whereby the paint particles dissolved in the dipping bath are attracted to the component 3 and adhere uniformly there. Additionally required pre- or post-treatment steps are omitted for the sake of easier understanding of the invention.
- a downstream drying station 18 the component 3 passes through a continuous furnace at a predetermined conveying speed, in which the light metal KTL layer 6 is baked at process temperatures in the range of, for example, 180 ° C.
- a powder coating takes place in a coating station 20, in which layer 7 (FIG. Fig. 1 ) is applied to the component 3.
- the paint particles are transported to the earthed component 3 by an electrostatic field from live pointing heads.
- a further drying station 19 again a baking process in a continuous furnace.
- the light metal component 3 is added in a possible exemplary application as a visible vehicle exterior part in a riveting to a not yet painted bodyshell 15.
- the body shell 15 is in a continuous process in a body painting plant (see Fig. 4 ).
- the primed shell body 15 is conveyed to a downstream continuous furnace 27, in which the primer is baked.
- the green body 15 provided with the primer is led to a further coating station 29, in which a KTL process takes place.
- the KTL process 29 is also followed by a continuous furnace 31, in which the coating is baked at high temperature.
- a further coating station 33 a conventional automotive four-layer paint system 9 is applied, which is subsequently subjected to a baking process 35.
- the Indian Fig. 4 shown body painting process is performed with pre-coated light metal component 3. That is, the light metal component 3 is electrically insulated, so that the applied in the bodyshell painting process KTL layer no longer adheres, whereas the conventional automotive paint system 9 (ie, a four-layer structure) can be readily applied to the powder coating 7 of the light metal component 3.
- the conventional automotive paint system 9 ie, a four-layer structure
- Fig. 5 to 7 is in views according to the Fig. 1 the light metal component 3 shown in different process steps. So is in the Fig. 5 the light metal component 3 with cleaned and exposed metallic surface 25 shown. In the Fig. 6 the light metal component 3 is shown after passivation and outsourcing. Accordingly, the conversion layer 5 is applied to the metallic surface 25 of the light metal component, namely with the Schollenmorphologie invention, that is, with lumpy individual fragments 11 and intermediate cracks 13. In the Fig. 7 is this Light metal component 3 shown after completed light metal KTL process, in which the starting component of the light metal KTL layer 6 soaks through the crack structure 13 of the conversion layer 5, whereby the adhesive bond between the conversion layer 5 and the light metal KTL layer 6 is substantially increased.
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Passivierung einer metallischen Oberfläche eines Leichtmetallbauteils nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The invention relates to a method for passivating a metallic surface of a light metal component according to the preamble of
Der Einsatz von Leichtmetallbauteilen ist branchenübergreifend gängige Praxis. Speziell im Fahrzeugbau können beispielhaft Fahrzeugkarosserien im Mischbau zum Beispiel aus Leichtmetall- und Stahlblechteilen gefertigt werden, um eine Gewichtsreduzierung zu erzielen. Beispielhaft können als Leichtmetall Aluminium- oder Magnesium-Werkstoffe oder Legierungen davon eingesetzt werden.The use of light metal components is common practice across industries. Especially in vehicle construction, for example, vehicle bodies in mixed construction, for example, made of light metal and sheet steel parts to achieve a weight reduction. By way of example, aluminum or magnesium materials or alloys thereof can be used as the light metal.
Aus der
Bei im Mischbau gefertigten Fahrzeugkarosserien sind die Leichtmetallbauteile (aus Mg oder Al) im Vergleich zu den Stahl-Bauteilen korrosionsanfälliger. Vor allem Lackunterwanderungen und Filiformkorrosion sind häufiger auftretende Schadensbilder. Zum Schutz der Leichtmetall-Bauteile ist eine Beizpassivierung sowie die Applikation einer anodischen Beschichtung gängige Praxis. Die kommerziellen Beschichtungen bieten jedoch nur zum Teil die notwendige Schutzwirkung gegen Eigenkorrosion, Filiformkorrosion und/oder Lackunterwanderung. Vor allem im Kontakt mit Magnesium ist der hohe Potentialunterschied als korrosionsfördernd zu betrachten.In vehicle bodies manufactured in mixed construction, the light metal components (made of Mg or Al) are more susceptible to corrosion than the steel components. Especially paint undercuts and filiform corrosion are more common damage patterns. To protect the light metal components, a pickling passivation and the application of an anodic coating is common practice. However, the commercial coatings only partially provide the necessary protective effect against self-corrosion, filiform corrosion and / or paint infiltration. Especially when in contact with magnesium, the high potential difference should be regarded as promoting corrosion.
Die kommerziell verfügbaren Beschichtungssysteme für Leichtmetallbauteile weisen kein ausreichend passivierendes Verhalten auf und sind oftmals insbesondere gegenüber Magnesium zu "edel" (das heißt zu hohe Korrosionspotentiale). Werden Magnesiumlegierungen durch den Kontakt mit edleren Metallen (zum Beispiel Aluminium) elektrochemisch polarisiert, kommt es zu einem exponentiellen Anstieg des Korrosionsstromes.The commercially available coating systems for light metal components do not exhibit sufficient passivating behavior and are often too "noble" (that is to say too high corrosion potentials), especially with respect to magnesium. If magnesium alloys are electrochemically polarized by contact with more noble metals (eg aluminum), an exponential increase of the corrosion current occurs.

Der Erfindung liegt die Idee zu Grunde, sich bei der Zusammensetzung der Passivierungslösung zumindest grundsätzlich an der Zusammensetzung von menschlichem Blut zu orientieren. Überraschend wurde nämlich herausgefunden, dass bestimmte Komponenten des menschlichen Blutes eine schützende und passivierend wirkende Beschichtung auf Metalloberflächen, speziell aus Leichtmetall wie Aluminium und/oder Magnesium, erzeugen. In einer speziellen Ausführungsvariante der Erfindung können Konzentrationen einzelner Bestandteile im Wesentlichen unverändert in der Passivierungslösung nachgebildet werden. Vor diesem Hintergrund erfolgt ein spezieller Passivierungsschritt, bei dem unter Verwendung einer wässrigen, insbesondere blutähnlichen Passivierungslösung auf der metallischen Bauteiloberfläche eine kalziumphosphathaltige Konversionsschicht erzeugt wird, die Oxide und Hydroxide des Bauteil-Werkstoffes und der Passivierungslösung aufweist und Aminosäuren enthält.The invention is based on the idea of orienting the composition of the passivation solution, at least in principle, to the composition of human blood. Surprisingly, it has been found that certain components of human blood produce a protective and passivating coating on metal surfaces, especially of light metal such as aluminum and / or magnesium. In a specific embodiment of the invention, concentrations of individual constituents can be simulated essentially unchanged in the passivation solution. Against this background, a special passivation step takes place in which a calcium phosphate-containing conversion layer which comprises oxides and hydroxides of the component material and of the passivation solution and contains amino acids is produced on the metallic component surface using an aqueous, in particular blood-like, passivation solution.
Das mit der passivierten metallischen Oberfläche ausgebildete Leichtmetallbauteil kann branchenübergreifend eingesetzt werden. Beispielhaft ist das Leichtmetallbauteil ggf. im Automobilbereich einsetzbar, und zwar sichtgeschützt innerhalb des Fahrzeugs oder als nach außen sichtbares Außenteil. Beispielhaft kann das Leichtmetallbauteil als ein fahrzeuginnenseitiger Display-Rahmen, ein Aggregateteil, ein Fahrwerksteil oder ein Bestandteil einer Sitzrahmenstruktur realisiert sein.The light metal component formed with the passivated metallic surface can be used across industries. By way of example, the light metal component may optionally be used in the automotive sector, namely in a visible manner within the vehicle or as an externally visible outer part. By way of example, the light metal component can be realized as a vehicle-inner-side display frame, an aggregate part, a chassis part or a component of a seat frame structure.
Der passivierend wirkende Korrosionsschutzprimer (das heißt die Konversionsschicht) erzeugt eine Reduktion der Eigenkorrosionsströme um den Faktor 10. Zudem erfolgt eine Erhöhung des Lochfrasspotentials um mehr als 0,5 V bei gleichzeitiger Reduzierung der kathodischen Stromdichten. Dabei ist die erfindungsgemäße Konversionsschicht sehr günstig im Kontakt zu edleren Materialien (wie zum Beispiel Aluminium oder Stahl). Zudem erfolgt mit der erfindungsgemäßen Konversionsschicht eine Reduktion der Kontaktkorrosionsströme mit Aluminium, Stahl, Zink, Kohlenstofffasern oder CFK. Ferner ergibt sich ein Anstieg des Durchtrittswiderstands durch Applikation der Beschichtung (das heißt je höher der Durchtrittswiderstand, desto geringer die Korrosionsströme; der Durchtrittswiderstand verhält sich umgekehrt proportional zu den Korrosionsströmen). Darüber hinaus wird ein passives Verhalten erzeugt, bei dem wesentlich geringere globale Korrosionsströme auftreten. Im Vergleich dazu ergeben sich bei herkömmlichen Konversionsschichten eine Vielzahl von feinverteilten lokalen Korrosionsstellen. Insgesamt ist hervorzuheben, dass die erfindungsgemäße Konversionsschicht niedrige Eigenkorrosionsströme sowie eine hohe Passivität erzeugt. Im Kontakt mit Aluminium und Stahl ergeben sich nur geringe Kontaktkorrosionsströme.The passivating anticorrosive primer (ie the conversion layer) produces a reduction of the self-corrosive currents by a factor of 10. In addition, an increase of the pitting potential by more than 0.5 V takes place with simultaneous reduction of the cathodic current densities. The conversion layer according to the invention is very favorably in contact with nobler materials (such as aluminum or steel). In addition, with the conversion layer according to the invention, there is a reduction in the contact corrosion currents with aluminum, steel, zinc, carbon fibers or CFRP. Furthermore, there is an increase in the penetration resistance by application of the coating (that is, the higher the penetration resistance, the lower the corrosion currents, the penetration resistance behaves inversely proportional to the corrosion currents). In addition, a passive behavior is generated in which much lower global corrosion currents occur. By comparison, in conventional conversion layers, a large number of finely divided local corrosion sites result. Overall, it should be emphasized that the conversion layer according to the invention generates low intrinsic corrosion currents and high passivity. In contact with aluminum and steel, only small contact corrosion currents result.
Bei einem Bauteil-Werkstoff aus Aluminium ergibt sich mit der Passivierungslösung eine kompakte kalziumphosphat- und aluminiumhydroxid/oxid-haltige Beschichtung mit Aminosäuren. Die Schichtmorphologie ist dabei schollenförmig aufgebaut, und zwar mit zwischengeordneten Rissen, die z.B. bei einer, in einem Lackierprozess nachfolgenden KTL-Abscheidung für eine ausreichend große Restleitfähigkeit sorgen. Zudem kann die flüssige Ausgangskomponente der Grundierung in die Risse eindringen, wodurch sich eine gute Haftfähigkeit zwischen der Konversionsschicht und der Grundierung ergibt.In the case of a component material made of aluminum, the passivation solution results in a compact calcium phosphate and aluminum hydroxide / oxide-containing coating with amino acids. The layer morphology is constructed in the form of lumps, with intermediate cracks which, for example, provide a sufficiently large residual conductivity in the case of a subsequent KTL deposition in a coating process. In addition, the liquid starting component of the primer can penetrate into the cracks, resulting in good adhesion between the conversion layer and the primer.
Alternativ dazu ergibt sich bei einem Bauteil-Werkstoff aus Magnesium eine kompakte kalziumphosphat- und magnesiumhydroxid/oxid-haltige Beschichtung, deren Schichtmorphologie ebenfalls schollenförmig ausgebildet ist.Alternatively, in the case of a component material made of magnesium, a compact calcium phosphate and magnesium hydroxide / oxide-containing coating is obtained, the layer morphology of which is also formed in a lump-shaped manner.
Nachfolgend sind weitere optionale Merkmale der Erfindung beschrieben: So kann die Passivierungslösung bevorzugt als Aktivatoren zur Aktivierung der Metalloberfläche des Bauteils zumindest die folgenden Bestandteile aufweisen:
Sowohl NaCl als auch KCl wirken als Chlorid-Quelle und unterstützen eine Aktivierung der Schichtbildung, bei der vermehrt Werkstoff-Ionen aus der Oberfläche des Bauteils herausgelöst werden, die für die Schichtbildung notwendig sind.Both NaCl and KCl act as a source of chloride and assist in the activation of film formation which results in increased release of material ions from the surface of the device, which are necessary for film formation.
Zudem kann die Passivierungslösung als Katalysatoren und Schichtbildner zumindest die folgenden Aminosäuren aufweisen:
Die Aminosäure L-Isoleucin wirkt dabei speziell als ein Schichthaftmittel, das die Haftfähigkeit der Konversionsschicht auf der metallischen Bauteiloberfläche unterstützt.The amino acid L-isoleucine acts specifically as a layering agent that supports the adhesion of the conversion layer on the metallic component surface.
Zur Unterstützung der Schichtbildung sind zudem Ca2+- und/oder PO4 3--Ionen als Fragmente in der Konversionsschicht eingebaut. In diesem Fall kann bevorzugt die Passivierungsschicht Kalziumphosphate enthalten.To support the layer formation, Ca 2+ and / or PO 4 3- ions are also incorporated as fragments in the conversion layer. In this case, the passivation layer may preferably contain calcium phosphates.
Darüber hinaus kann die Konversionsschicht karbonathaltige Bestandteile aufweisen. Zur Bereitstellung solcher karbonathaltiger Schichtbestandteile kann die Passivierungslösung NaHCO3 enthalten. Die Karbonatbildung ist zudem abhängig von ggf. zugeführtem CO2.In addition, the conversion layer may contain carbonaceous constituents. To provide such carbonate-containing layer constituents, the passivation solution may contain NaHCO 3 . The formation of carbonate also depends on possibly supplied CO 2 .
Als weiteren Hilfsstoff zur Unterstützung der Schichtbildung kann die Passivierungslösung Na-Pyruvat enthalten, und zwar mit einer Konzentration zwischen 90 und 150 mg/l, insbesondere 110 mg/l.As a further adjuvant to promote layer formation, the passivating solution may contain Na pyruvate, with a concentration between 90 and 150 mg / l, in particular 110 mg / l.
Wie oben dargelegt, besteht ein wesentlicher Erfindungsaspekt darin, dass bestimmte Bestandteile des menschlichen Blutes in weitgehend unveränderter Konzentration auf die Passivierungslösung übertragen werden. Entsprechend kann die wässrige Passivierungslösung in einer Ausführungsvariante zumindest die folgenden Bestandteile enthalten, deren Konzentrationen ihren Konzentrationen in menschlichem Blut nachgebildet sind:
Von wesentlicher Bedeutung für das Beschichtungsverhalten sind zumindest einer oder mehrere, insbesondere alle der folgenden Bestandteile der Passivierungslösung:
Die erfindungsgemäße Passivierungsreaktion kann bei einem pH-Wert von etwa 7 erfolgen. In diesem Fall läuft die Beschichtungsreaktion nur langsam ab. Alternativ kann die Beschichtungsreaktion auch im sauren Bereich stattfinden. Die Beschichtungsreaktion kann durch Erhöhung der Temperatur, Reduzierung des pH-Wertes und/oder durch Polarisation und/oder Erhöhung des Partialdruckes von CO2 beschleunigt werden.The passivation reaction according to the invention can be carried out at a pH of about 7. In this case, the coating reaction is slow. Alternatively, the coating reaction can also take place in the acidic range. The coating reaction can be accelerated by increasing the temperature, reducing the pH and / or by polarization and / or increasing the partial pressure of CO 2 .
In einem speziellen Anwendungsfall kann das Leichtmetallbauteil ein Fahrzeugteil sein, das zunächst mit der erfindungsgemäßen Passivierungslösung unter Bildung der Konversionsschicht vorbehandelt wird. Die Konversionsschicht des Bauteils kann in einem folgenden Beschichtungprozess mit zumindest einer weiteren Schicht überdeckt werden. Erfindungsgemäß weist der Beschichtungsprozess einen ersten Beschichtungsschritt auf, bei dem eine Leichtmetall-KTL-Schicht, d.h. eine organische Schutzschicht, gebildet wird. Dies erfolgt in einem Tauchverfahren (d.h. Leichtmetall-KTL) unter angelegter Gleichspannung, wodurch die im Tauchbad gelösten Lackpartikel vom metallischen Bauteil angezogen werden und dort unter Bildung der Leichtmetall-KTL-Schicht haften bleiben. In einem weiteren Beschichtungsschritt wird dann eine Pulverbeschichtung aufgebracht. Dies erfolgt in einem Pulverbeschichtungsprozess unter angelegter Gleichspannung. Im Hinblick auf eine prozesssichere Beschichtung ist die bereits oben erwähnte spezielle schollenförmige Schichtmorphologie mit den Rissstrukturen von besonderer Bedeutung. Diese gewährleistet nämlich im Tauchverfahren und im Pulverbeschichtungsprozess eine ausreichende elektrische Restleitfähigkeit durch die Konversionsschicht hindurch.In a specific application, the light metal component may be a vehicle part, which is first pretreated with the passivation solution according to the invention to form the conversion layer. The conversion layer of the component can be covered with at least one further layer in a subsequent coating process. According to the invention, the coating process has a first coating step, in which a light metal KTL layer, ie an organic protective layer, is formed. This is done in a dipping process (ie light metal KTL) under applied DC voltage, whereby the paint particles dissolved in the immersion bath are attracted to the metallic component and remain there to form the light metal KTL layer. In a further coating step, a powder coating is then applied. This is done in a powder coating process with applied DC voltage. With regard to a process-reliable coating, the special clod-shaped layer morphology with the crack structures already mentioned above is of particular importance. This ensures namely in the dipping process and in the powder coating process sufficient electrical residual conductivity through the conversion layer.
Im Anschluß an den Bauteil-Beschichtungsprozess kann in einem möglichen Anwendungsfall das Leichtmetallbauteil, z.B. als ein sichtseitiges Außenteil, in einem Nietvorgang an die noch nicht lackierte Rohbaukarosserie gefügt werden. Die Rohkarosserie wird dann zusammen mit dem daran montierten Leichtmetallbauteil einem herkömmlichen Karosserie-Lackierprozess unterworfen. D.h. es erfolgt eine Kataphorese-Grundierung der Rohkarosserie im Tauchverfahren, bei dem unter angelegter elektrischer Gleichspannung die im Tauchbad gelösten Lackpartikel von der Rohkarosserie angezogen werden und dort unter Bildung einer Grundierung haften bleiben. Anschließend wird die grundierte Rohkarosserie in einen nachgeschalteten Durchlaufofen gefördert, in dem die Grundierung eingebrannt wird. Darauffolgend wird die mit der Grundierung versehene Rohkarosserie zu einer weiteren Beschichtungsstation geführt, in der ein KTL-Prozess erfolgt. Dem KTL-Prozess ist ebenfalls ein Durchlaufofen nachgeschaltet, in dem bei hoher Temperatur ein Einbrennen der KTL-Schicht erfolgt. Anschließend wird in einer weiteren Beschichtungsstation ein herkömmlicher automobiler Lackaufbau aufgebracht, der in einem nachfolgenden Trocknungsschritt ebenfalls unter hoher Temperatur eingebrannt wird.Subsequent to the component coating process, in one possible application the light metal component, for example as a visible outer part, can be joined in a riveting operation to the shell body not yet painted. The body shell is then subjected to a conventional body painting process together with the light metal component mounted thereon. That is, there is a cataphoresis primer of the body shell in the dipping process in which under applied electrical DC voltage dissolved in the immersion paint particles are attracted to the body shell and remain there to form a primer. Subsequently, the primed body shell is conveyed into a downstream continuous furnace, in which the primer is baked. Subsequently, the green body provided with the primer is led to another coating station in which a KTL process takes place. The KTL process is also followed by a continuous furnace in which the KTL layer burns in at high temperatures. Subsequently, in a further coating station a conventional automotive paint system applied, which is also baked in a subsequent drying step at high temperature.
Im obigen Karosserie-Lackierprozess ist das an der Rohkarosserie montierte Leichtmetallbauteil bereits mit einem Schichtaufbau vorbeschichtet, und zwar mit der Konversionsschicht, der Leichtmetall-KTL-Schicht und der Pulverbeschichtung. Das Leichtmetallbauteil ist somit elektrisch isoliert, so dass die im Rohkarosserie-Lackierprozess elektrisch applizierte KTL-Schicht nicht mehr haften bleibt, während sich der herkömmliche automobile Lackaufbau ohne weiteres auf das bereits beschichtete Leichtmetallbauteil applizieren lässt.In the above body painting process, the light metal component mounted on the green body is already precoated with a layer structure, namely with the conversion layer, the light metal KTL layer and the powder coating. The light metal component is thus electrically insulated, so that the electroplated in the bodyshell painting process KTL layer no longer adheres, while the conventional automotive paint system can be easily applied to the already coated light metal component.

Die Zusammensetzung der wässrigen Passivierungslösung orientiert sich grundsätzlich an der Zusammensetzung von menschlichem Blut. Vor diesem Hintergrund enthält die Passivierungslösung zumindest die folgenden Hauptbestandteile, deren Konzentrationen identisch mit den Konzentrationen in menschlichem Blut sind:
Dabei dient NaCl und KCl in der Passivierungslösung zur Aktivierung der MetallOberfläche 25. Die Aminosäuren D-Ca-Pantothenat und Myo-Inositol sind hauptverantwortlich für den Beschichtungsprozess und weisen zudem eine katalysierende Wirkung auf. Die Komponenten NaH2PO4 und CaCl2 unterstützen den Beschichtungsprozess durch Einbau der Ca2+- und PO4 3--Ionen in die Konversionsschicht 5.Here, NaCl and KCl in the passivation solution serves to activate the
Die erfindungsgemäße Konversionsschicht 5 weist zudem karbonathaltige Schichtbestandteile auf. Diese werden in der Passivierungslösung durch die Komponente NaHCO3 und CO2 (aus der Atmosphäre) bereitgestellt. Als weiterer Hilfsstoff für die Schichtbildung dient die Komponente Na-Pyruvat.The
Von wesentlicher Bedeutung für das Beschichtungsverhalten sind die folgenden Bestandteile der Passivierungslösung:
Die obigen Aminosäuren sind ebenfalls Bestandteile des menschlichen Blutes, deren Konzentrationen annähernd unverändert übernommen sind.The above amino acids are also components of human blood whose concentrations are almost unchanged.
Insgesamt handelt es sich daher bei der erfindungsgemäßen Passivierungslösung um eine wässrige Behandlungsflüssigkeit, deren pH-Wert im Bereich von etwa 7 oder im sauren Bereich liegt. Die Passivierung erfolgt in dem Tauchbad bei einer Behandlungstemperatur im Bereich von 18 bis 25°C. Die Behandlungszeit richtet sich nach dem eingestellten pH-Wert, der Prozesstemperatur und gegebenenfalls einer zusätzlichen Polarisation sowie der geforderten Solldicke der Beschichtung. Nach der Passivierung wird das Bauteil 3 einem Spül-/Trocknungsvorgang zugeführt.Overall, therefore, the passivation solution according to the invention is an aqueous treatment liquid whose pH is in the range of about 7 or in the acidic range. The passivation takes place in the immersion bath at a treatment temperature in the range of 18 to 25 ° C. The treatment time depends on the set pH value, the process temperature and optionally an additional polarization as well the required nominal thickness of the coating. After passivation, the
