COMPONENTE DE APARATO DOMESTICO QUE COMPRENDE UN ELEMENTO BASE CON UN RECUBRIMIENTO FUNCIONALCOMPONENT OF DOMESTIC APPLIANCE THAT INCLUDES A BASE ELEMENT WITH A FUNCTIONAL COATING
DESCRIPCIONDESCRIPTION
La invention hace referenda a un componente de aparato domestico, el cual comprende un elemento base, donde al menos una superficie del elemento base esta recubierta parcialmente o por completo con un recubrimiento funcional. Asimismo, la invencion hace referencia a un metodo para recubrir un componente de aparato domestico, y a un aparato domestico.The invention refers to a domestic appliance component, which comprises a base element, where at least one surface of the base element is partially or completely covered with a functional coating. Also, the invention refers to a method for coating a domestic appliance component, and a domestic appliance.
La utilization de diferentes aleaciones de metal como materias primas en aparatos domesticos puede provocar el aumento de problemas relativos a la corrosion durante la vida util de los aparatos. Particularmente las maquinas lavadoras y las maquinas lavavajillas comprenden muchas superficies que estan en contacto directo con el agua con y con productos qulmicos. En aquellos casos en los que se requieren tanto las propiedades del acero como la resistencia a la corrosion, se suele utilizar acero inoxidable, el cual no se corroe por lo general con el agua, al contrario que el acero normal. Sin embargo, la mayorla de las variedades de acero inoxidable no son totalmente resistentes a la corrosion en entornos con bajo contenido en oxlgeno, salinidad elevada, o mala circulation del aire. Con el fin de evitar el uso de materiales completamente resistentes a la corrosion y muy caros, normalmente se aplican recubrimientos funcionales a areas crlticas de componentes de los aparatos domesticos, por ejemplo, en lugares donde el agua y los productos qulmicos pueden permanecer tras un ciclo de lavado de una maquina lavadora o una maquina lavavajillas.The use of different metal alloys as raw materials in domestic appliances can lead to increased problems related to corrosion during the life of the appliances. Particularly washing machines and dishwashing machines comprise many surfaces that are in direct contact with water with and with chemical products. In those cases where both the properties of steel and corrosion resistance are required, stainless steel is usually used, which does not generally corrode with water, unlike normal steel. However, most stainless steel varieties are not totally resistant to corrosion in environments with low oxygen content, high salinity, or poor air circulation. In order to avoid the use of completely corrosion-resistant and very expensive materials, functional coatings are normally applied to critical areas of household appliances components, for example, in places where water and chemical products can remain after one cycle. of washing a washing machine or a dishwasher.
Se han desarrollado diferentes enfoques para conseguir una mejor protection contra la corrosion en los metales. Estos enfoques dependen del tipo de metal (por ejemplo, acero, acero inoxidable, zinc, etc.), y el entorno (por ejemplo, en zona interior o exterior) para los cuales este destinado el aparato domestico. En general, existen dos metodos para la proteccion de los metales contra la corrosion, los cuales son la proteccion activa y la pasiva. En el caso de los componentes de aparato domestico, la proteccion pasiva contra la corrosion es por lo general el enfoque mas sencillo, ya que permite la reduction de los costes de production, as! como una implementation tecnologica mas sencilla. En la proteccion pasiva frente a la corrosion, la corrosion se evita o, al menos, retrasa, blindando la superficie metalica frente al agente corrosivo mediante un recubrimiento funcional. PorDifferent approaches have been developed to achieve better protection against corrosion in metals. These approaches depend on the type of metal (for example, steel, stainless steel, zinc, etc.), and the environment (for example, inside or outside) for which the domestic appliance is intended. In general, there are two methods for the protection of metals against corrosion, which are active and passive protection. In the case of domestic appliance components, passive corrosion protection is usually the simplest approach, since it allows the reduction of production costs as well! as a simpler technological implementation. In passive corrosion protection, corrosion is avoided or, at least, delayed, shielding the metal surface against the corrosive agent by means of a functional coating. By

tanto, los recubrimientos funcionales no deberlan presentar poros, ser resistentes al esfuerzo mecanico externo, y adherirse firmemente a la superficie del metal respectivo. El grosor de los recubrimientos funcionales depende en gran medida del proceso y de la composition de las sustancias empleadas. Los recubrimientos funcionales inorganicos suelen estar compuestos por capas de oxido o de fosfato con un grosor de entre 1 pm y 20 pm. Los recubrimientos funcionales metalicos pueden ser aplicados mediante diferentes metodos y pueden tener un grosor que se encuentre en el intervalo de entre 1 pm y 20 mm. Los recubrimientos funcionales no metalicos, como los recubrimientos de silicato o cemento, suelen tener un grosor que se encuentra en el intervalo de entre 350 pm y 20 mm. Los recubrimientos funcionales organicos protectores, tales como los recubrimientos de bitumen, caucho, o de plastico, asl como las pinturas, pueden tener por lo general un grosor que se encuentre en el intervalo de entre 80 pm y 20 mm.therefore, functional coatings should not present pores, be resistant to external mechanical stress, and adhere firmly to the surface of the respective metal. The thickness of the functional coatings depends largely on the process and the composition of the substances used. Inorganic functional coatings are usually composed of layers of oxide or phosphate with a thickness between 1 pm and 20 pm. The metallic functional coatings can be applied by different methods and can have a thickness that is in the range of 1 pm to 20 mm. Nonmetallic functional coatings, such as silicate or cement coatings, usually have a thickness in the range of 350 pm to 20 mm. Protective organic functional coatings, such as bitumen, rubber, or plastic coatings, as well as paints, can generally have a thickness in the range of 80 pm to 20 mm.
No obstante, los recubrimientos funcionales conocidos en la actualidad presentan varios inconvenientes al ser muy caros, tener un grosor bastante elevado, o no poder resistir valores elevados de pH (pH>9) ni una atmosfera humeda durante la vida util del aparato domestico respectivo.However, the functional coatings known at present have several disadvantages because they are very expensive, have a fairly high thickness, or cannot resist high pH values (pH> 9) or a humid atmosphere during the useful life of the respective domestic appliance.
La presente invention resuelve el problema tecnico de proporcionar un componente de aparato domestico con un recubrimiento funcional economico para la protection del componente de aparato domestico contra la humedad, los entornos qulmicos agresivos, y la corrosion. Otro problema tecnico que resuelve la invencion consiste en proporcionar un metodo para recubrir un componente de aparato domestico con un recubrimiento funcional que pueda ser aplicado de manera economica y que proteja al componente de aparato domestico contra la humedad, los entornos qulmicos agresivos, y la corrosion. Ademas, otro problema tecnico que resuelve la presente invencion consiste en proporcionar un aparato domestico que comprenda al menos un componente de aparato domestico con una elevada resistencia a la corrosion.The present invention solves the technical problem of providing a domestic appliance component with an economical functional coating for the protection of the domestic appliance component against moisture, aggressive chemical environments, and corrosion. Another technical problem that solves the invention is to provide a method for coating a domestic appliance component with a functional coating that can be economically applied and that protects the domestic appliance component from moisture, aggressive chemical environments, and corrosion. . In addition, another technical problem that solves the present invention is to provide a domestic appliance comprising at least one domestic appliance component with a high corrosion resistance.
Estos problemas tecnicos se resuelven mediante un componente de aparato domestico, un metodo para recubrir un componente de aparato domestico, un aparato domestico, y una utilization de conformidad con las reivindicaciones independientes. En las reivindicaciones dependientes respectivas se especifican desarrollos ventajosos de la invencion, donde los desarrollos ventajosos del componente de aparato domestico han de ser considerados desarrollos ventajosos del metodo y del aparato domestico, y viceversa.These technical problems are solved by a domestic appliance component, a method for coating a domestic appliance component, a domestic appliance, and a utilization according to the independent claims.

recubierta parcialmente o por completo con un recubrimiento funcional, donde el recubrimiento comprende al menos un compuesto hlbrido organico-inorganico. Los materiales hlbridos organicos-inorganicos pueden definirse en general como compuestos moleculares o nanocompuestos con componentes organicos e inorganicos, estrechamente mezclados, donde al menos uno de los dominios de los componentes tenga una dimension que oscile entre varios A y varios nanometros. En consecuencia, las propiedades de los materiales hlbridos no son solo la suma de las contribuciones individuales de ambas fases, sino que el papel de sus interfases interiores puede ser predominante. La naturaleza de la interfase ha sido utilizada para dividir estos materiales a grandes rasgos en dos clases diferentes. En los materiales de la clase I, los componentes organicos e inorganicos estan incrustados, y los enlaces de hidrogeno, de van der Waals y/o ionicos proporcionan cohesion al compuesto. En los materiales de la clase II, las dos fases estan unidas si a traves de fuertes enlaces covalentes o ionico-covalentes. Los compuestos hlbridos organicos-inorganicos pueden ser hechos a medida para el elemento base respectivo, y muestran una excelente protection frente a la corrosion en entornos altamente corrosivos y humedos. Ademas, el recubrimiento funcional que comprende el compuesto hlbrido organico-inorganico puede tener un grosor muy pequeno para conseguir una proteccion contra la corrosion efectiva y duradera. Gracias a este grosor reducido, el recubrimiento no obstaculiza la utilization e integration del componente de aparato domestico en un aparato domestico respectivo. Asimismo, unicamente una cantidad muy pequena del/de los compuesto(s) hlbrido(s) organico(s)-inorganico(s) es necesaria, y puede ser aplicada con facilidad al elemento base, lo cual reduce eficazmente los costes de production. En general, el recubrimiento del elemento base puede estar compuesto por uno o mas compuestos hlbridos organicos-inorganicos. El recubrimiento puede comprender tambien uno o mas componentes adicionales. La superficie del elemento base puede estar recubierta solo parcialmente, aunque tambien es posible que la superficie entera del elemento base este recubierta. Asimismo, el elemento base puede comprender diferentes recubrimientos sobre diferentes areas superficiales, donde al menos uno de los recubrimientos comprenda o este compuesto por al menos un compuesto hlbrido organico-inorganico.partially or completely coated with a functional coating, where the coating comprises at least one organic-inorganic hybrid compound. Organic-inorganic hybrid materials can be defined in general as molecular compounds or nanocomposites with organic and inorganic components, closely mixed, where at least one of the component domains has a dimension ranging from several A to several nanometers. Consequently, the properties of hybrid materials are not only the sum of the individual contributions of both phases, but the role of their interior interfaces may be predominant. The nature of the interface has been used to divide these materials broadly into two different classes. In class I materials, organic and inorganic components are embedded, and hydrogen bonds, van der Waals and / or ionic provide cohesion to the compound. In class II materials, the two phases are linked together through strong covalent or ionic-covalent bonds. Organic-inorganic hybrid compounds can be tailor-made for the respective base element, and show excellent protection against corrosion in highly corrosive and humid environments. In addition, the functional coating comprising the organic-inorganic hybrid compound may have a very small thickness to achieve effective and lasting corrosion protection. Thanks to this reduced thickness, the coating does not hamper the utilization and integration of the domestic appliance component in a respective domestic appliance. Also, only a very small amount of the organic-organic compound (s) is necessary, and can be easily applied to the base element, which effectively reduces production costs. In general, the base element coating may be composed of one or more organic-inorganic hybrid compounds. The coating may also comprise one or more additional components. The surface of the base element may be only partially coated, although it is also possible that the entire surface of the base element is coated. Also, the base element may comprise different coatings on different surface areas, where at least one of the coatings comprises or is composed of at least one organic-inorganic hybrid compound.
En un desarrollo ventajoso de la invention, se preve que el elemento base comprenda o este compuesto por una aleacion de metal, en particular, una aleacion de acero inoxidable. Gracias a la excelente proteccion contra la corrosion proporcionada por el recubrimiento, el elemento base puede comprender o estar compuesto por una aleacion de metal mas barata con una resistencia a la corrosion relativamente baja, reduciendose as! los costes de produccion y/o el peso del componente de aparato domestico.In an advantageous development of the invention, it is envisioned that the base element comprises or is composed of a metal alloy, in particular a stainless steel alloy. Thanks to the excellent corrosion protection provided by the coating, the base element can comprise or be composed of a cheaper metal alloy with a relatively low corrosion resistance, thus reducing! the production costs and / or the weight of the household appliance component.

En otro desarrollo ventajoso de la invention, se preve que el recubrimiento tenga un grosor de menos de 20 pm, en particular, de menos de 10 pm. El recubrimiento puede tener, por ejemplo, un grosor maximo de 20 pm, 19 pm, 18 pm, 17 pm, 16 pm, 15 pm, 14 pm, 13 pm, 12 pm, 11 pm, 10 pm, 9 pm, 8 pm, 7 pm, 6 pm, 5 pm, 4 pm, 3 pm, 2 pm, 1 pm, o menos. Asl, el recubrimiento tiene un grosor considerablemente por debajo del grosor de las pinturas utilizadas normalmente, y reduce en gran medida la utilization de material del recubrimiento. Los grosores reducidos son tambien ventajosos para cumplir tolerancias estrictas.In another advantageous development of the invention, the coating is expected to have a thickness of less than 20 pm, in particular, less than 10 pm. The coating may, for example, have a maximum thickness of 20 pm, 19 pm, 18 pm, 17 pm, 16 pm, 15 pm, 14 pm, 13 pm, 12 pm, 11 pm, 10 pm, 9 pm, 8 pm , 7 pm, 6 pm, 5 pm, 4 pm, 3 pm, 2 pm, 1 pm, or less. Thus, the coating has a thickness considerably below the thickness of normally used paints, and greatly reduces the utilization of coating material. Reduced thicknesses are also advantageous to meet strict tolerances.
En otro desarrollo ventajoso de la invencion, se preve que el recubrimiento comprenda nanopartlculas de sllice. Las nanopartlculas de sllice, las cuales pueden ser precipitadas dentro del recubrimiento, mejoran las propiedades mecanicas del recubrimiento, de modo que el recubrimiento puede ser aplicado como capa fina no porosa.In another advantageous development of the invention, the coating is expected to comprise silica nanoparticles. The silica nanoparticles, which can be precipitated within the coating, improve the mechanical properties of the coating, so that the coating can be applied as a non-porous thin layer.
En otro desarrollo ventajoso de la invencion, se preve que el componente de aparato domestico este configurado como revestimiento o elemento de pared de un aparato domestico. Esto hace posible que se evite la corrosion sobre paredes interiores y/o exteriores de superficies del aparato domestico.In another advantageous development of the invention, it is envisioned that the domestic appliance component is configured as a cladding or wall element of a domestic appliance. This makes it possible to prevent corrosion on interior and / or exterior walls of domestic appliance surfaces.

The surface of the base element may be only partially coated, although it is also possible that the entire surface of the base element is coated. Also, the base element may comprise different coatings on different surface areas, where at least one of the coatings comprises or is composed of at least one organo-inorganic hybrid compound.
En un desarrollo ventajoso de la invention, se preve que el compuesto hlbrido organico- inorganico sea aplicado mediante recubrimiento por pulverization sobre el elemento base. Expresado de otro modo, se preve que al menos una section del elemento base sea recubierta parcialmente o por completo con uno o mas compuestos hlbridos organicos- inorganicos mediante un proceso de recubrimiento por pulverizacion.

In other words, it is envisaged that at least one section of the base element is partially or completely coated with one or more organic-inorganic hybrid compounds by means of a spray coating process. Coatings generated by spray coating have excellent mechanical and chemical properties and can be easily applied to all base materials and shapes commonly used. In addition, spray coating makes it possible for production costs to be low.
En otro desarrollo ventajoso de la invencion, se preve que el compuesto hlbrido organico- inorganico empleado sea sintetizado a traves de un proceso sol-gel utilizandose al menos un componente inorganico y al menos un componente organico como precursores. Un proceso sol-gel es un metodo para producir materiales solidos a partir de moleculas pequenas. El proceso implica la conversion de monomeros precursores en una solution coloidal (sol) que actua como el precursor para un gel de partlculas discretas o pollmeros reticulados. Los compuestos hlbridos organicos-inorganicos que son sintetizados a traves de un proceso sol- gel forman recubrimientos duros con una excelente proteccion contra la corrosion, y presentan las ventajas de los precursores tanto organicos como inorganicos. Adicionalmente a esta propiedad anticorrosion, se abren varias posibilidades para la creation de funcionalidades adicionales a medida mediante la combination de diferentes precursores organicos e inorganicos.In another advantageous development of the invention, it is anticipated that the organo-inorganic hybrid compound employed will be synthesized through a sol-gel process using at least one inorganic component and at least one organic component as precursors. A sol-gel process is a method to produce solid materials from small molecules. The process involves the conversion of precursor monomers into a colloidal solution (sol) that acts as the precursor for a gel of discrete particles or crosslinked polymers. Organic-inorganic hybrid compounds that are synthesized through a sol-gel process form hard coatings with excellent corrosion protection, and present the advantages of both organic and inorganic precursors. In addition to this anti-corrosion property, several possibilities are opened for the creation of additional functionalities tailored by combining different organic and inorganic precursors.
En otro desarrollo ventajoso de la invencion, se preve que el componente inorganico para el proceso sol-gel sea seleccionado de entre uno o mas de la sflice coloidal, en particular, nanoparticulas de sflice, y el tetraalquilortosilicato, en particular, el tetrametilortosilicato (TMOS) y/o el tetraetilortosilicato (TEOS). La seleccion hecha a medida de los grupos 5 quimicos de los precursores inorganicos permite optimizar la resistencia quimica del compuesto hibrido organico-inorganico resultante requerida para la funcionalidad del componente de aparato domestico en un entorno acuoso y quimicamente agresivo.In another advantageous development of the invention, it is envisioned that the inorganic component for the sol-gel process is selected from one or more of the colloidal silica, in particular, silica nanoparticles, and the tetraalkylortosilicate, in particular, the tetramethylortosilicate (TMOS ) and / or tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS).

moleculas de agua entraran en contacto directo con el elemento base 2 y tendran lugar varias reacciones electroqulmicas, provocandose asl la corrosion del elemento base 2. La reaccion clave es la reduction del oxlgeno:Water molecules will come into direct contact with the base element 2 and several electrochemical reactions will take place, thus causing corrosion of the base element 2. The key reaction is the reduction of oxygen:
O2 + 4e- + 2H2O ^ 4OH-O2 + 4e- + 2H2O ^ 4OH-
El suministro de los electrones para la anterior reaccion es la oxidation del hierro que puede describirse tal y como sigue a continuation:The supply of electrons for the previous reaction is the oxidation of iron that can be described as follows:
Fe ^ Fe2+ + 2e-Fe ^ Fe2 + + 2e-
La siguiente reaccion redox tambien se produce en presencia de agua, y es esencial para la formation de la herrumbre:The following redox reaction also occurs in the presence of water, and is essential for the formation of the rust:
4Fe2+ + O2 ^ 4Fe3+ + 2O2-4Fe2 + + O2 ^ 4Fe3 + + 2O2-
Estas reacciones crean una corriente que puede ser medida dentro de un margen de varios segundos tras el contacto con el agua. La corrosion debilita el elemento base 2 al hacer que su estructura metalica se vuelva fragil y quebradiza.These reactions create a current that can be measured within a range of several seconds after contact with water. Corrosion weakens the base element 2 by making its metal structure fragile and brittle.

Para comparar la protection frente a la corrosion de diferentes recubrimientos sobre acero inoxidable al cromo, se han medido las curvas de voltametrla clclica basadas en "un porcentaje de proteccion” conseguido por los recubrimientos. Aunque existen varios 10 metodos cualitativos para evaluar las propiedades anticorrosion de una capa, se ha escogido la voltametrla clclica por proporcionar resultados rapidos y precisos. La proteccion contra la corrosion de varios recubrimientos funcionales ha sido calculada a traves de la formulaTo compare the corrosion protection of different coatings on chrome stainless steel, the cyclic voltameter curves based on "a percentage of protection" achieved by the coatings have been measured, although there are several 10 qualitative methods to evaluate the anti-corrosion properties of one layer, the cyclic voltameter has been chosen to provide fast and accurate results.The corrosion protection of various functional coatings has been calculated through the formula
Proteccion contra la corrosion (%) =Corrosion protection (%) =
