Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electrodeposition material for the electrochemical deposition of a corrosion-protective layer of TiO 2 on an electrically conductive substrate comprising a titanium compound, a complexing agent, an accelerator, water and optionally organic solvents, buffering agents and one or more additives.
- a corrosion-protective layer of TiO 2 on an electrically conductive substrate comprising a titanium compound, a complexing agent, an accelerator, water and optionally organic solvents, buffering agents and one or more additives.
- Such TiO 2 layer deposited electrochemically may serve as an appropriate primer layer for subsequent coating treatment (e.g. coating with organic materials, such as for instance lacquers, varnishes, paints, organic polymers, adhesives, etc.).
- a very common industrial task involves providing metallic or non-metallic substrates with a first coating, which has a corrosion-inhibiting effect and/or which constitutes a primer for the application thereon of a subsequent coating containing e.g. organic polymers.
- An example of such a task is the pre-treatment of metals prior to lacquer coating, for which various processes are available in the art. Examples of such processes are layer-forming or non-layer-forming phosphating, chromating or a chromium-free conversion treatment, for example using complex fluorides of titanium, zirconium, boron or silicon.
- Technically simpler to perform, but less effective is the simple application of a primer coat to a metal prior to lacquer-coating thereof. An example of this is the application of red lead.
- wet processes in which a corrosion-protection or coupling layer is applied by gas phase deposition.
- Such processes are known, for example, as PVD or CVD processes. They may be assisted electrically, for example by plasma discharge.
- a layer produced or applied in this way may serve as a corrosion-protective primer for subsequent lacquer coating.
- the layer may also constitute a primer for subsequent bonding.
- Metallic substrates in particular, but also substrates of plastics or glass, are frequently pre-treated chemically or mechanically prior to bonding in order to improve adhesion of the adhesive to the substrate.
- metal or plastic components may be bonded metal to metal, plastic to plastic or metal to plastic.
- front and rear windshields of vehicles are as a rule bonded directly into the bodywork.
- Other examples of the use of coupling layers are to be found in the production of rubber/metal composites, in which once again the metal substrate is as a rule pre-treated mechanically or chemically before a coupling layer is applied for the purpose of bonding with rubber.
- the conventional wet or dry coating processes in each case exhibit particular disadvantages.
- chromating processes are disadvantageous from both an environmental and an economic point of view owing to the toxic properties of the chromium and the occurrence of highly toxic sludge.
- chromium-free wet processes such as phosphating, as a rule, also result in the production of sludge containing heavy metals, which has to be disposed of at some expense.
- Another disadvantage of conventional wet coating processes is that the actual coating stage frequently has to be preceded or followed by further stages, thereby increasing the amount of space required for the treatment line and the consumption of chemicals.
- phosphating which is used virtually exclusively in automobile construction, entails several cleaning stages, an activation stage and generally a post-passivation stage. In all these stages, chemicals are consumed and waste is produced which requires disposal.
- dry coating processes entail fewer waste problems, they have the disadvantage of being technically complex to perform (for example requiring a vacuum) or of having high energy requirements. The high operating costs of these processes are therefore a consequence principally of plant costs and energy consumption.

Description
- This application is a continuation under 35 U.S.C. § 365(c) and 35 U.S.C. § 120 of international application PCT/EP2006/005790, filed 16 Jun. 2006, and published 28 Dec. 2006 in English as WO 2006/136333, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. This application also claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119 of EP 05013424.6 filed 22 Jun. 2005, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- The present invention relates to an electrodeposition material for the electrochemical deposition of a corrosion-protective layer of TiO2 on an electrically conductive substrate comprising a titanium compound, a complexing agent, an accelerator, water and optionally organic solvents, buffering agents and one or more additives. Such TiO2 layer deposited electrochemically may serve as an appropriate primer layer for subsequent coating treatment (e.g. coating with organic materials, such as for instance lacquers, varnishes, paints, organic polymers, adhesives, etc.).
- A very common industrial task involves providing metallic or non-metallic substrates with a first coating, which has a corrosion-inhibiting effect and/or which constitutes a primer for the application thereon of a subsequent coating containing e.g. organic polymers. An example of such a task is the pre-treatment of metals prior to lacquer coating, for which various processes are available in the art. Examples of such processes are layer-forming or non-layer-forming phosphating, chromating or a chromium-free conversion treatment, for example using complex fluorides of titanium, zirconium, boron or silicon. Technically simpler to perform, but less effective, is the simple application of a primer coat to a metal prior to lacquer-coating thereof. An example of this is the application of red lead. An alternative to so-called “wet” processes are so-called “dry” processes, in which a corrosion-protection or coupling layer is applied by gas phase deposition. Such processes are known, for example, as PVD or CVD processes. They may be assisted electrically, for example by plasma discharge.
- A layer produced or applied in this way may serve as a corrosion-protective primer for subsequent lacquer coating. However, the layer may also constitute a primer for subsequent bonding. Metallic substrates in particular, but also substrates of plastics or glass, are frequently pre-treated chemically or mechanically prior to bonding in order to improve adhesion of the adhesive to the substrate. For example, in vehicle or equipment construction, metal or plastic components may be bonded metal to metal, plastic to plastic or metal to plastic. At present, front and rear windshields of vehicles are as a rule bonded directly into the bodywork. Other examples of the use of coupling layers are to be found in the production of rubber/metal composites, in which once again the metal substrate is as a rule pre-treated mechanically or chemically before a coupling layer is applied for the purpose of bonding with rubber.
- The conventional wet or dry coating processes in each case exhibit particular disadvantages. For example, chromating processes are disadvantageous from both an environmental and an economic point of view owing to the toxic properties of the chromium and the occurrence of highly toxic sludge. However, chromium-free wet processes, such as phosphating, as a rule, also result in the production of sludge containing heavy metals, which has to be disposed of at some expense. Another disadvantage of conventional wet coating processes is that the actual coating stage frequently has to be preceded or followed by further stages, thereby increasing the amount of space required for the treatment line and the consumption of chemicals. For example, phosphating, which is used virtually exclusively in automobile construction, entails several cleaning stages, an activation stage and generally a post-passivation stage. In all these stages, chemicals are consumed and waste is produced which requires disposal.
- Although dry coating processes entail fewer waste problems, they have the disadvantage of being technically complex to perform (for example requiring a vacuum) or of having high energy requirements. The high operating costs of these processes are therefore a consequence principally of plant costs and energy consumption.
- Further, it is known from the prior art that thin layers of metals compounds, for example oxide layers, may be produced electrochemically on an electrically conductive substrate. For example, the article by Y. Zhou and J. A. Switzer entitled “Electrochemical Deposition and Microstructure of Copper (I) Oxide Films”, Scripta Materialia, Vol. 38, No. 11, pages 1731 to 1738 (1998), describes the electrochemical deposition and microstructure of copper (I) oxide films on stainless steel. The article investigates above all the influence of deposition conditions on the morphology of the oxide layers; it does not disclose any practical application of the layers.
- According to Blandeu et al. in Thin Solid Film, 42, 147 (1997) (Abstract), TiO2-layers are obtained on a Ti-sheet from H2SO4 aqueous solution by anodic oxidation methods. This is obtained at potentials below 50 V. However, this process can produce TiO2 only on Ti-substrates by anodic oxidation.
- According to Nogami et al. in J. Electrochem. Soc., 135, 3008 (1988) (Abstract), TiO2 is obtained on a Ti-sheet from an aqueous solution containing 0.5 mol/L H2SO4 and 0.03 mol/L HNO3 by an anodic oxidation method (titanium anodization).
