Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a multi-stage process for the anti-corrosion pretreatment of components, which is at least partially made of a metallic material composed predominantly of one or more of the elements iron, zinc and/or aluminum, in which the components are first treated with an acidic aqueous Composition (A) containing water-soluble compounds of the elements Zr and/or Ti and then brought into contact with an acidic aqueous composition (B) containing phosphate ions and an accelerator.
  • A acidic aqueous Composition
  • B acidic aqueous composition
  • the method is particularly suitable for pre-treatment before electrocoating.
  • the anti-corrosion pretreatment of metallic surfaces before subsequent painting is carried out in the prior art, depending on the desired profile of requirements and the type of paint to be applied, with different wet-chemical treatment methods, which are often based on the conversion of the metal surfaces with a homogeneous passivating coating with an inorganic material, where the inorganic material is deposited in crystalline or amorphous form by pickling the metallic substrate as a poorly soluble compound of a metal and/or semi-metal element.
  • the metal and/or semi-metal element of the inorganic material separated after the conversion of the metal surface originates either predominantly from the metal of the treated substrate, as in the case of non-layer-forming phosphating, for example iron phosphating, or from active components of these metal and/or metal elements contained in the pickling solution or semi-metal elements, such as in layer-forming phosphating, for example zinc phosphating.

  • the layer-forming phosphating provides at least partially crystalline phosphate coatings, the layer coverage of which is regularly above 1.5 g/m 2 .
  • Phosphating in particular is very well established in terms of process technology and is still an important anti-corrosive pre-treatment method before electrocoating components made of metallic materials made of the elements iron, zinc and/or aluminum, despite the complex reprocessing of the phosphating bath and the rinsing water and the phosphate sludge that forms during processing are made.
  • non-layer-forming phosphating which is particularly well mastered for ferrous materials and provides homogeneous, thin, amorphous coatings.
  • the non-layer-forming phosphating is significantly less is material-intensive and can be operated with less effort in the treatment of the phosphating bath and the rinsing water because of the lower phosphate load.

  • the phosphating bath must contain dissolved phosphate, nitrobenzene sulfonic acid as an accelerator and monocarboxylic acids specified there.
  • the phosphating baths can also contain other auxiliaries, for example free and/or complex-bound fluoride.
  • the first task is to reduce the phosphate sludge produced in the non-layer-forming phosphating and in processes with subsequent electrocoating to reduce the required layer thickness while maintaining the same corrosion resistance.
  • Another important aspect is to improve the passivation achieved with the non-layer-forming phosphating for subsequent electrocoating in such a way that, in the case of more complex components, the coating coverage in areas of the component that are largely shielded from the electrical field of the electrocoating is increased.

  • the conventional pretreatment produces a layer thickness of about 20 ⁇ m in the dip coating, whereas with the pretreatment according to the invention a dip coating layer thickness of 8 ⁇ m resulted in homogeneous coverage.
  • a conventional phosphating according to process step A3 without prior conversion treatment requires a comparatively longer phosphating time to achieve similarly low layer thicknesses and causes a significantly higher load with phosphate sludge in the technical implementation in series production.
