Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process for wet-chemical pretreatment of a plurality of iron components and a plurality of aluminum components in series.
- iron components especially steel components, processed and manufactured.
- these components are pickled and applied a conversion layer.
- the components undergo established production lines with a specific sequence of different immersion baths, which are adapted to the chemical composition of the iron components.
- more and more iron components are replaced by components made of light metal such as aluminum or magnesium.
- the production lines designed for iron components can not pass through light metals such as aluminum or magnesium because of their properties other than iron.
- certain dipping baths which are integrated into production lines for iron components and adapted to these components, a very low pH (pH ⁇ 1), so that when passing through such baths, the etching of the light metal components is too large.
- EP-A-1 571 237 discloses a method for conversion treatment of metal parts made of steel, galvanized steel or aluminum in series.
- the metal parts are treated with a solution containing 5-5000 ppm of Ti or Zr and 0.1 to 100 ppm of free fluoride and having a pH of 2-6.
- the invention relates in a first aspect to a process for the wet-chemical pretreatment of a plurality of iron components and a plurality of aluminum components in series, in which each of the iron components passes through first a pickle (1) and subsequently a reaction nozzle (2), successively each of the aluminum components also undergoes the same reaction rinse (2) but without having undergone a pickle (1), the method being characterized in that the pickle (1) is contacted by contacting with a sulfuric acid aqueous bath solution (A) a pH below 1.0 and the reaction rinse (2) by contacting with a sulfuric acid aqueous bath solution (B) containing a total of at least 0.02 g / kg of water-soluble compounds of the elements zirconium and / or titanium, respectively based on the respective elements and their pH is not less than 1.0, takes place.
- a sulfuric acid aqueous bath solution A
- the reaction rinse (2) by contacting with a sulfuric acid aqueous bath solution (B) containing a total of at least 0.02
- the entrained bath solution (A) and the iron ions contained therein have an advantageous effect on the reaction rinse (2), since the iron ions accelerate the formation of the conversion layer on the light metal components and the bath solution (A) the bath solution (B) also acidified, ie can keep a favorable pH in the bath solution (B) constant or at least contributes to the maintenance of the advantageous pH, but this does not fall below a value of 1.0. It has surprisingly been found that a relatively high content of iron ions in the bath solution (B) of up to 10 g per kg bath solution (B) has no negative effect on the bath solution (B) or on the formation of the conversion layer on the light metal components ,
- the pretreatment according to the invention serves to apply a corrosion-protecting first coating as a primer for organic coatings.
- the pretreatment therefore always ends with the application of a first organic coating (primer, dip paint, powder coating), which itself is not a pretreatment step in the sense of the present invention.
- a “variety” as used herein refers to 2 or more, for example, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 100, 200, 300, 400 or more.
- the inventive method relates to a wet chemical pretreatment of a plurality of iron components and a plurality of aluminum components in series.
- pretreatment in series is the bringing into contact of a large number of components with bath solutions stored in system tanks for pickle (1) and / or reaction blister (2) and / or further wet chemical treatment steps, wherein the individual components are brought into contact one after the other and thus separated in time.
- wet chemical describes that a change in the chemical finish of at least one of the metallic surfaces of the component to be treated is effected by contact with a liquid, which liquid is usually substantially water.
- a treatment step is then "wet-chemical” if, during its course, at least one metallic surface brought into contact with the liquid undergoes a pickling removal of at least 0.5 g / m 2 or the liquid contains at least 10 g / kg of organic compounds having a molecular weight of contains at least 100 g / mol or a significant surface coverage is effected with metallic or semi-metallic foreign elements.
- Foreign elements in this context are metallic or semi-metallic elements whose surface portion in the contact area of the component with the liquid immediately before contacting is less than 5 At .-% measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (Al-K ⁇ radiation and 54.7 ° angle between the beam incidence and the detector , so-called "Magic Angle").
- a significant surface coverage is present if the proportion of metallic or semi-metallic foreign elements on at least one metallic surface of the component immediately after the treatment step is greater than 1 mg / m 2 based on the respective foreign element.
- the pickling (1) or reaction (2) are therefore typical wet chemical treatment steps as well as the activation (3) and the phosphating (4).
- the iron components used according to the method essentially have surfaces of steel and / or iron, preferably more than 60%, particularly preferably more than 80%, particularly preferably more than 90% of all metallic surfaces of the iron components are surfaces of steel and / or iron.
- all metallic surfaces of the iron components are surfaces of steel and / or iron.
- the iron component may optionally contain additives of other metals and / or non-metals. These additives may be selected from the group comprising carbon, silicon, chromium, nickel, manganese, molybdenum, tungsten, and mixtures of the foregoing, but the group is not limited thereto.
- Aluminum members as used herein have substantially surfaces of aluminum and / or aluminum alloys, preferably more than 60%, more preferably more than 80%, most preferably more than 90% of all metallic surfaces of the Aluminum components Surfaces of aluminum and / or its alloys. In a particularly preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, all metallic surfaces of the aluminum components are surfaces of aluminum and / or its alloys.
- the aluminum components may optionally include additives of other metals and / or non-metals. Such additives may be selected from the group comprising silicon, beryllium, magnesium, copper, nickel, zinc, manganese and mixtures of the foregoing, but the group is not limited thereto.
- each of the iron components passes immediately after a pickle (1) and then a reaction rinse (2), whereas each of the aluminum components through the same reaction rinse (2), but without having the stain (1) to go through.
- Process steps for a component in the context of serial pretreatment then follow each other "directly" if they are not interrupted by another than the respectively provided subsequent wet-chemical treatment or a rinsing step.
- the stain (1) is made by contacting the iron component with a sulfuric acid bath solution (A) having a pH below 1.0.
- the pH is in the range of 0 to ⁇ 1.
