Description

  The present invention relates to rust prevention treatment (improvement of corrosion resistance) of so-called construction hardware used for wooden buildings.

In wooden buildings, so-called construction hardware such as hole-down hardware, nails, screws, and bolts are often used. Also, in order to improve the durability of the building, anti-corrosive ant chemicals are applied and infiltrated into the wood to be used, and in order to improve seismic performance, hole-down hardware fixed to pillars and anchor bolts embedded in the concrete foundation And strengthen the bond between the building frame and the concrete foundation.
Since many construction hardware is made of thick steel plates (many of which are about 2.3 mm thick) and steel bars with diameters of 12 mm and 16 mm, rust prevention treatment is required on the surface of the molded product.

Conventionally, as a rust-proofing treatment for construction hardware, in general, there are many cases in which a chromate film or a phosphoric acid film is formed on electrogalvanized and an organic film such as a resin is further formed thereon, or by hot dip galvanizing. (Patent Document 1).
However, when these construction hardware is used in contact with wood that has been treated with antiseptic and ant repellant, many of the antiseptic and ant-preventing chemicals contain copper, so there is electrical corrosion between zinc (base) and copper (precious) of construction hardware. Occurs and zinc is rapidly consumed, resulting in iron red rust in a short time.
In addition, in wood species that generate wood acid with high acidity, such as rice pine, when a construction hardware by conventional rust prevention treatment is used for this, the inorganic coating of zinc reacts with the acid and iron red rust is generated in a short period of time. .

In addition, anchor bolts embedded in concrete foundations do not cause corrosion of steel due to the strong alkaline environment of concrete in the concrete. However, at the boundary surface where the anchor bolts are exposed, there is no water at the beginning of concrete placement. The galvanized layer is thinned by exposure to a strong alkaline aqueous solution that remains on the casting surface until the sum is complete. For this reason, the material surface of an anchor bolt may contact air and produce red rust.
Such red rust is doubtful in strength as construction hardware in the long term. In addition, it is conspicuous, and in situations where it is caught by the owner, it can lead to distrust of construction.

  On the other hand, the conventional rust-proofing treatment in which chromate treatment is performed on the electrogalvanized plating contains hexavalent chromium which is excellent in rust-proofing performance but is designated as a hazardous substance. For this reason, the antirust process which does not use this is also proposed (patent document 2). Although the thing of patent document 2 is set as the structure which does not use chromium by forming an iron zinc-alloy layer, a metal basecoat layer, and a silicon-type topcoat layer, it differs from dissimilar metals, such as an acid, an alkali, and copper. It is weak in corrosion resistance against electric corrosion.

  This invention is used for preservative-prevented ant-treated wood, which is peculiar to architectural hardware for wooden buildings, to make hardware that does not produce red rust, to make it resistant to acidic and alkaline environments, and to be inexpensive and protective It is an object to provide a tough metal film that is difficult to be scratched, to obtain a uniform metal film with a thin protective film, and to provide a method for forming the protective film.

Zinc plating (mostly electroplating) is applied to the steel plate base of the building hardware for the wooden building after forming to form the first layer.
Next, an epoxy-modified paint is applied and baked to form a binder (primer, second layer).
Further, a top coat such as a melamine modified acrylic paint is applied to the binder and baked to form a third layer.
A composite film composed of the first to third layers is used as a protective film.

The epoxy modified coating film baked on the second galvanized layer is in close contact with the galvanized layer by baking, and also binds well to the third melamine modified acrylic coating film. For this reason, the epoxy-modified paint film of the second layer serves as a binder, resulting in a tough protective film in which the melamine-modified acrylic paint film is strongly bonded to the surface of the galvanized layer.
Since the galvanized layer is double-coated with a film of an epoxy modified paint and a melamine modified acrylic paint, the protection of the galvanized layer is reliable.
Epoxy-modified paints and melamine-modified acrylic paints are inexpensive, easy to adjust the film thickness, and easy to make the protective film thin and uniform.
Coloring is possible.

[Electrogalvanizing process]
Using an electrogalvanizing automatic line 1, a zinc layer (first layer) having a film thickness of 8 μm is formed on the surface of a wooden building architectural hardware 2 (made of steel, hereinafter, workpiece) after molding.
[First painting process]
The galvanized work 2 is put in a basket of an automatic coating coater 3 and immersed in an epoxy-modified paint, and then shaken off by centrifugal force. A uniform and thin coating film is formed on the surface of the workpiece 2. When coloring, the tank inside the coater is changed according to the color.

[First drying baking process]
After painting, the basket of the coater 3 is inverted and the workpiece 2 is spread on the net conveyor 5 of the net conveyor oven 4. The workpiece 2 rides on the net conveyor 5 and passes through the oven, is dried, and then baked at 200 ° C. for 20 minutes. Drying and baking are performed continuously. As a result, a binder (second layer) having a thickness of about 1 μm is formed.
[Heat dissipation process]
Work 2 that has completed the first drying baking process is placed on the net conveyor or at the end so that the adhesion between the second layer and the galvanized layer is completed and the top coat is stably applied. The heat is dissipated until it reaches room temperature in a sealed container.

[Second painting process]
The workpiece 2 on which the binder has been formed is again immersed in the melamine-modified acrylic paint by the automatic coating coater 3, and the surplus paint is removed by painting off to be applied. In this case, the thickness of the coating is adjusted to about 6 μm after baking by adjusting the concentration of the paint and the degree of centrifugal shaking. Replace the tank inside the coater 3 with a melamine-modified acrylic paint.
[2nd drying baking process]
As in the first time, the workpiece 2 is dropped from the automatic coating coater 3 onto the net conveyor of the net conveyor oven 4, and after drying, baking is performed in the oven at 200 ° C. for 20 minutes. As a result, a film (third layer) of the melamine modified acrylic paint having a film thickness of about 6 μm is formed.

  FIG. 2 schematically shows a cross section of the protective film thus formed. The protective coating is mainly intended for rust prevention. The first layer is a composite coating with a film thickness of about 15μm, which is composed of galvanized, second layer made of highly corrosion-resistant organic binder, and third layer made of high-corrosion-resistant top coating. is there. This structure possesses high sacrificial anticorrosion performance of zinc, and is excellent in electric corrosion resistance and acid / alkali resistance performance due to the organic film. Also, no chrome is used.

[Contact corrosion test with anti-corrosive ant-treated wood]
FIG. 3 is a comparison of the state of contact corrosion with the antiseptic and ant-treated wood (exposure to the outdoors) between a steel sheet provided with the protective film of the present application and one provided with another protective film.
The antiseptic and ant-treating agent is “My Trek ACQ” (trademark of Koshiipurabingu Inc.). Various other conditions in the test are described in the figure.
In the case of the protective film of the present invention of (1), the occurrence of red rust (the part that appears black in the photograph) is clearly small (almost no occurrence).

[Contact corrosion test with wood containing highly acidic wood acid]
FIG. 4 shows the state of a test for a bolt that selects and uses rice pine as wood containing high acidity wood acid (pH 3.75) and is fixed through the wood.
Various conditions for the test are described in the figure.
(1) The protective film of the invention of the present application is obviously less likely to produce red rust (almost no occurrence).

[Electrical corrosion test]
FIG. 5 shows the results of a salt spray test in which a stainless steel plate was fixed to wood with a rust-prevented screw and a zinc flake laminated coating (non-chrome).
Various conditions for the test are described in the figure.
As is clear from the figure, in the case of the rust-prevented screw with the protective film according to the present application of (1), the occurrence of red rust due to electrolytic corrosion is hardly seen between the stainless steel plate and the screw. On the other hand, in the case of the screw treated with the zinc flake multilayer coating (non-chromium) of (2), the occurrence of red rust is already severe after 150 hours, and the corrosion is so severe that the screw head cannot be discriminated after 1000 hours of (3). It has become.

As described above, the present invention has a simple and inexpensive configuration, but exhibits a stable and excellent effect in practical use.
Moreover, although the rust prevention performance was mainly used in the comparative test, the protective film according to the invention of the present application also exhibits the following effects.
Demonstrates high alkali resistance against concrete foundation interface corrosion such as anchor bolts.
Since the film thickness is about 15 μm, the screw parts such as bolts and nuts can be smoothly fitted.
