Definitions
- the present invention relates to a film-forming structure and a film-forming method on a work that include closely depositing a thin primary film on a work, the primary film being a suboxide or an oxide which is soft and has insulation properties and corrosion resistance.
- the work is integrated with the primary film to prevent the primary film from peeling, and thereby improving the workability.
- a thin secondary film such as a coating is attached to the primary film closely, thereby reducing the amount of paint used.
- the primary film is integrated with the secondary film to prevent the secondary film from peeling and cracking, improving the workability after formation of the secondary film, and thereby forming the primary and secondary films rationally.
- plating is a metal film
- pinholes generated by electrolysis are unavoidable, and thus leading to a problem of corrosion due to potential difference in different metals.
- coating since rust on metal surfaces generated by oxygen permeation is unavoidable, thick coatings are formed to deal with the problem.
- a needs exits for an improved surface treatment which utilizes the advantages and covers the shortcomings of plating and coating.
- a coated steel plate in which a hot-dipped steel plate including aluminum is heated before coating, the surface to be coated is conditioned, for example, by chromating, a primer coating is applied to the surface to have a thickness of 2 to 15 ⁇ m, and a top coating is applied thereon to have a thickness of 5 to 30 ⁇ m (refer, for example, to Patent Document 1).
- the above coated steel plate needs to be conditioned by subjecting the coating surface to a chemical conversion treatment before coating. Then the primer coating and the top coating are required, which leads to a time consuming process. Further, since the coating becomes thick, it tends to peel off, which leads to peeling and cracking during a subsequent processing. Thus, the coated steel plate has a poor workability.
- a method in which magnesium ions are contained in the surface conditioner beforehand, the conditioned surface of the plated layer is further conditioned with an acid aqueous solution including magnesium, and magnesium is replaced and deposited to prevent corrosion of the interface between the surface layer of the plated layer and the primer coating of the coated original plate (refer, for example, to Patent Document 2).
- the other surface treatment method in which a chromium plating and a chromium oxide are deposited in separate processes, metal chromium is actively deposited to couple with the chromium oxide in the chemical treatment bath, a high coulomb treatment is performed at high current density in the chemical treatment bath, ferrous ions are contained in the chemical treatment bath of a chromic anhydride alone to attach a coating on the surface of the chromium-plated steel plate (refer, for example, to Patent Document 3).
- the above method takes time for treatment since the chromium plating and the chromium oxide are deposited separately. Further, since metal chromium is actively deposited to couple with the chromium oxide, conductivity of the chromium oxide is promoted, and the hardness is increased. Thus, corrosion due to potential difference between the chromium oxide and chromium steel plate tends to occur. Further, the increase in hardness of the chromium oxide leads to a poor workability after formation of the film. When the coated product is bent, the coating tends to peel off and crack.

Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a film-forming structure and a film-forming method on a work that include closely depositing a thin primary film on a work, the primary film being a suboxide or an oxide which is soft and has insulation properties and corrosion resistance. The work is integrated with the primary film to prevent the primary film from peeling, and thereby improving the workability. A thin secondary film such as a coating is attached to the primary film closely, thereby reducing the amount of paint used. The primary film is integrated with the secondary film to prevent the secondary film from peeling and cracking, improving the workability after formation of the secondary film, and thereby forming the primary and secondary films rationally.
- Since plating is a metal film, pinholes generated by electrolysis are unavoidable, and thus leading to a problem of corrosion due to potential difference in different metals. In coating, since rust on metal surfaces generated by oxygen permeation is unavoidable, thick coatings are formed to deal with the problem. Thus, a needs exits for an improved surface treatment which utilizes the advantages and covers the shortcomings of plating and coating.
- In order to deal with such needs, for example, there is a coated steel plate in which a hot-dipped steel plate including aluminum is heated before coating, the surface to be coated is conditioned, for example, by chromating, a primer coating is applied to the surface to have a thickness of 2 to 15 μm, and a top coating is applied thereon to have a thickness of 5 to 30 μm (refer, for example, to Patent Document 1).
- However, the above coated steel plate needs to be conditioned by subjecting the coating surface to a chemical conversion treatment before coating. Then the primer coating and the top coating are required, which leads to a time consuming process. Further, since the coating becomes thick, it tends to peel off, which leads to peeling and cracking during a subsequent processing. Thus, the coated steel plate has a poor workability.
- Since forming a uniform chromate film is difficult, a surface conditioning is required, in which an acid surface conditioner is applied to an original plate for coating before a chromate treatment. This leads to a time-consuming process. Further, the oxide on the top surface layer of plating is etched by the surface conditioner, so that corrosion resistance of the interface between the surface layer of the plated layer and the primer coating of the original plate for coating is decreased.
- To solve the above problems, a method is provided in which magnesium ions are contained in the surface conditioner beforehand, the conditioned surface of the plated layer is further conditioned with an acid aqueous solution including magnesium, and magnesium is replaced and deposited to prevent corrosion of the interface between the surface layer of the plated layer and the primer coating of the coated original plate (refer, for example, to Patent Document 2).
- However, the above method can only be applied to certain types of hot-dipped galvanized steel plate. Surface condition of the coated original plate is too complicated, which also makes preparation of the surface conditioner complicated. Further, the coating process is still complicated, unproductive, and inefficient.
- In order to deal with such needs, the other surface treatment method is provided, in which a chromium plating and a chromium oxide are deposited in separate processes, metal chromium is actively deposited to couple with the chromium oxide in the chemical treatment bath, a high coulomb treatment is performed at high current density in the chemical treatment bath, ferrous ions are contained in the chemical treatment bath of a chromic anhydride alone to attach a coating on the surface of the chromium-plated steel plate (refer, for example, to Patent Document 3).
- However, the above method takes time for treatment since the chromium plating and the chromium oxide are deposited separately. Further, since metal chromium is actively deposited to couple with the chromium oxide, conductivity of the chromium oxide is promoted, and the hardness is increased. Thus, corrosion due to potential difference between the chromium oxide and chromium steel plate tends to occur. Further, the increase in hardness of the chromium oxide leads to a poor workability after formation of the film. When the coated product is bent, the coating tends to peel off and crack.
- The present invention addresses such problems and aims to provide a film-forming structure and a film-forming method on a work that include closely depositing a thin primary film on a work, the primary film being a suboxide or an oxide which is soft and has insulation properties and corrosion resistance.

reference numeral 12 is a compressor for circulating a refrigerant provided in a cooling circuit of thecooling apparatus 10,reference numeral 13 denotes a cooling cylinder for storing the coolingbath 9, andreference numeral 14 is a filter provided inserted in a drain passage at the lower end of the coolingbath 9. - A treatment-
liquid introduction pipe 15 is provided at the upper position of the coolingbath 9 and a treatment-liquid discharge pipe 16 is provided at the lower part of the coolingbath 9. One end of the treatment-liquid introduction pipe 15 is provided submerged into thetreatment liquid 2 in thebath 1, and aliquid feed pump 17 for sucking thetreatment liquid 2 is provided inserted in the treatment-liquid introduction pipe 15. Further, the treatment-liquid discharge pipe 16 has one end connected to thefilter 14 and the other end connected to the lower part of thebath 1 via acheck valve 18. -
FIG. 2 is a state in which the suboxide which is the primary film is deposited on thework 3 and then a coating is formed by spraying a paint which is the secondary film on the primary film.Reference numeral 19 denotes a small coating gun used for spraying. Thecoating gun 19 includes acylindrical paint tank 20 provided to stand obliquely at the side of the nozzle of thecoating gun 19 and a compressed-air duct 21 connected to the lower part of thecoating gun 19. - Then, a synthetic-resin paint in the
paint tank 20 may be sprayed on theprimary film 23 deposited on thework 3 via an operation of atrigger 22. In some embodiments, chromium suboxide CrO3 is deposited on thework 3 as the suboxide which is theprimary film 23. - The other methods for forming the coating which is the secondary film include: applying with a brush or roller; a baking finish technique in which a paint is heated and hardened; an immersion coating technique in which the
work 3 with the primary film is immersed in the paint; an electrodeposition coating technique in which thework 3 in a water paint is coated by applying static electricity of opposite polarity; and an electrostatic coating technique in which a coating is electrically adsorbed on thework 3 by charging thework 3 and a spray-form paint with opposite polarity. The optimum technique may be selected according to the working conditions. - Next, in the method of the present invention, the suboxide which is the
primary film 23, or chromium oxide Cr2O3 which is the oxide of the suboxide is firstly deposited on thework 3. Then the coating which is thesecondary film 24 is formed on theprimary film 23. - When the suboxide which is the
primary film 23, or chromium oxide Cr2O3 which is the oxide of the suboxide is firstly deposited on thework 3 and then a coating which is thesecondary film 24 is formed on theprimary film 23, thebath 1 for receiving thetreatment liquid 2, thework 3 which is a cathode piece, and theanode piece 4 is prepared and then a predetermined voltage is applied to thework 3 and theanode piece 4. Thepower unit 8 which acts on a predetermined current density and thecontroller unit 7 for controlling thepower unit 8 are mounted on the above components. Further, the coolingbath 9 is placed at the close position of thebath 1. - The cooling
bath 9 is equipped with thecooling apparatus 10 and therefrigerant pipe 11 is provided in thecooling bath 9. The treatment-liquid introduction pipe 15 is provided at the upper position of the coolingbath 9 and the treatment-liquid discharge pipe 16 is provided at the lower part of the coolingbath 9. Theliquid feed pump 17 is provided inserted in the treatment-liquid introduction pipe 15. One end of the treatment-liquid introduction pipe 15 is provided in thetreatment liquid 2 in thebath 1, and one end of the treatment-liquid discharge pipe 16 is connected to the lower part of thebath 1 via thecheck valve 18. - The
treatment liquid 2 is then prepared. Thetreatment liquid 2 has the composition of 300 to 400 g/l of chromic anhydride CrO3, 5 to 10 g/l of sodium silicofluoride NaSiF6 which is a reduction inhibitor, and 2 to 5 g/l of barium acetate C4H6O4Ba, and thetreatment liquid 2 is received in thebath 1. - In this case, sodium silicofluoride and barium acetate in the
treatment liquid 2 inhibit a flow of electricity, inhibiting deposition of metal chromium Cr on the surface of thework 3 and promoting deposition of chromium suboxide CrO3 which is the suboxide. - The
work 3 and theanode piece 4 are received in thebath 1, thewiring controller unit 7 and thepower unit 8. Thepower unit 8 is turned on to apply a predetermined voltage, and the current density of thework 3 and theanode piece 4 is adjusted via thecontroller unit 7. In some embodiments, the current density of thework 3 and theanode piece 4 is adjusted to 20 A/dm. - Then, the
liquid feed pump 17 is started to suck thetreatment liquid 2 in thebath 1 and thetreatment liquid 2 sucked is sent to thecooling bath 9. Further, thecooling apparatus 10 is started to drive thecompressor 12 and circulate the refrigerant to therefrigerant pipe 11. Thetreatment liquid 2 in thecooling bath 9 is then cooled and sent to the lower part of thebath 1 from the treatment-liquid discharge pipe 16. - Thus, the
treatment liquid 2 in thebath 1 is cooled and, in some embodiments, the bath temperature is adjusted to 10° C. or below. In this case, in order to deposit a predetermined suboxide, the bath temperature should preferably be 0° C. or below such that thetreatment liquid 2 does not freeze. In some embodiments, the temperature is adjusted from −5 to 10° C. - When a voltage is applied to the
work 3 and theanode piece 4, hydrogen gas is generated on the side of thework 3 and moved up in thetreatment liquid 2 and then released into the air, while oxygen gas is generated on the side of theanode piece 4 and moved up in thetreatment liquid 2 and then released into the air. - Chromic anhydride which is the main component of
treatment liquid 2 is ionized at theanode 4, and the chromate ions are separated from theanode piece 4. The separated chromate ions move and disperse in thetreatment liquid 2 and move toward the interface of thework 3. Then the chromate ions are reduced to trivalent chromium. The trivalent chromium is deposited on the interface of thework 3. - At that time, trivalent chromium is deposited on the interface of the
work 3 based on the metal Cr. The deposited metal Cr is coupled with chromium suboxide CrO3 which is thesuboxide 23, and then the metal Cr and chromium suboxide are attached thereon in sequence to form a suboxide film. When the thickness of the film reaches 1 to 2 μm, conductivity of the suboxide film is lost and formation of the suboxide stops. - The chromium suboxide film is semibright black and a thin film with a thickness of 1 to 2 μm. Thereafter, the chromium suboxide film is combined with oxygen in the air and changed into an oxide of Cr2O3, and making the primary film more rigid.
- In deposition of the suboxide film, the bath temperature is adjusted to low temperature which is 10° C. or below. In some embodiments, the temperature is adjusted to −5 to 10° C. The current is inhibited by sodium silicofluoride and barium acetate in the
treatment liquid 2. Further, since the current density of thework 3 and theanode piece 4 is set to 20 A/dm2, deposition of metal chromium Cr on thework 3 can be inhibited. - Thus, the
primary film 23 made of the suboxide is presumed to be softer than the metal Cr and have a lower conductivity. - The inventors checked the components of the deposited suboxide film by quantitative analysis using an Electron Probe Micro Analyzer (EPMA 1720) of SHIMADZU CORPORATION. The following data was obtained: C: 24.91%; O: 18.82%; Si: 35.75%; Cr: 11.16%; and Ni: 9.36%. This data shows deposition of Cr is inhibited.
- Next, the inventors checked the surface state of the
primary film 23 by using a super resolution field emission type scanning electron microscope (SU-10) of Hitachi High-Technologies Corporation. The results shown inFIGS. 3 and 4 were obtained. -
FIG. 3 is photograph images of the surface states after 5 minutes, 10 minutes, and 20 minutes from the initiation of deposition of the suboxide which is theprimary film 23 at the bath temperature of −5° C. and the current density of 20 A/dm2, with magnification of 10K, 20K, 50K, and 100K (K: ×1000). Plural masses or granular structures appear on each state, and these structures grow as time passes from the deposition and clearances thereof also increase. It was observed that irregularities were distributed and clearly formed. -
FIG. 4 is photograph images of the surface states after 5 minutes, 10 minutes, and 20 minutes from the initiation of deposition of the suboxide which is theprimary film 23 at the bath temperature of 15° C. and the current density of 20 A/dm2, with magnification of 10K, 20K, 50K, and 100K. Plural grains or scale-like structures appear on each state, and these structures increase and grow as time passes from the deposition and clearances thereof also increase. Thus, distribution of irregularities was observed. -
FIG. 5 is a photograph image of the surface state after 20 minutes from the initiation of deposition of theprimary film 23 at the bath temperature of −5° C., with a magnification of 100K. The size of the masses or granular structures are shown with a reference scale for comparison. The masses or granular structures with the size of 25 to 200 nm were observed. -
FIG. 6 is a photograph image of the surface state after 20 minutes from the initiation of deposition of the suboxide at the bath temperature of 15° C., with magnification of 100K. The size of the structures of grains or folds is shown with a reference scale for comparison. The structures of grains or folds with the width of 25 to 50 nm and the length of 400 to 650 nm were observed. - Additionally,
FIG. 7 includes photograph images of the surface state ofFIG. 5 , taken by a scanning microscope, with a magnification of 10 to 50K. It was observed that the suboxide film had a fine-porous structure, the surface was formed like a cake with minute irregularities or sponge, and the surface had many irregularities with the size of 50 to 200 nm. -
FIG. 8 is a photograph image of a cross section of the suboxide or theprimary film 23 inFIG. 3 . It was observed that minute irregularities were formed on the surface of theprimary film 23 to cover the surface of thework 3. - As seen from the above, the surface of the
work 3 may be represented schematically as shown inFIG. 9 . As shown inFIG. 10(a) andFIG. 10(b) , further enlarged images ofFIG. 9 , since various irregularities and serrations on the surface of thework 3 are engaged with the irregularities of the porousprimary film 23, theprimary film 23 seems to be adhered and deposited on thework 3 closely. - This state is further enlarged and shown in
FIG. 11 . Theprimary film 23 is arranged in a stripe pattern with predetermined intervals and engaged with the surface layer of thework 3 so that theprimary film 23 is adhered to thework 3 firmly. - Thus, an impregnation layer made of the
primary film 23 is formed on the surface of thework 3 so that thework 3 is integral with theprimary film 23. Accordingly, theprimary film 23 is adhered to the surface layer of thework 3 rigidly and closely, preventing theprimary film 23 from peeling and cracking. Further, thesecondary film 24 is formed on the porous structure of theprimary film 23 firmly and rigidly so that peeling of thesecondary film 24 is prevented. - Next, in forming a coating which is the
secondary film 24 on thework 3, inorganic or organic paint coating is applied or adsorbed onto the suboxide or oxide deposited on thework 3. - In some embodiments, a spraying method of coating with the
coating gun 19 is adopted as an applying or adsorbing method of the coating, but other techniques may also be adopted. - In this cases, since oxygen may penetrate the coating, the coating may be formed immediately after formation of the
primary film 23 or formed later on. The coating only needs to be formed on the rigid oxide in the end. Thus, the timing of the coating formation does not affect the quality. - Then, the surface of the suboxide or oxide of the
primary film 23 deposited on thework 3 before forming the coating is cleaned and dried. Thework 3 is suspended on, for example, anappropriate jig 25. - Then a desired paint is filled in the
paint tank 20 of thecoating gun 19. By holding thecoating gun 19 connected with the compressed-air duct 21, the paint is sprayed via an operation of thetrigger 22, aiming the nozzle toward thework 3. This state is shown inFIG. 2 . - The paint applied to the
work 3 in a manner as described above is attached to the surface of theprimary film 23 of the suboxide or oxide, and then heated and hardened. In this case, the forming state of the coating which is thesecondary film 24 is shown inFIGS. 12 and 13 . - In forming of the
secondary film 24 of the present invention, the thinprimary film 23 which the suboxide or oxide deposited on thework 3 is used instead of primers that have been frequently used for conventional coating. Every fine particle or crystal of the coating is disposed on theprimary film 23 independently and with high density. - At that time, the coating needs to be formed basically only once, and primer, middle, and top coatings, that are required in the conventional manner and time-consuming, are unnecessary. The film is formed in a thin film having a thickness of 5 μm, which is one-fifth to one-third of the conventional ones. The thin film is engaged with the minute irregularities of the
primary film 23 to be adhered closely. Thus, the amount of the paint used is reduced and the coating is formed readily compared with the conventional coating method, and whereby the coating is formed rationally and at low cost. - In this case, due to the porous structure of the
primary film 23, the plural irregularities or holes of the surface function like a chopstick holder, and a coating which is thesecondary film 24 is fitted and embedded in the holes. Accordingly, the density of embedded coating can also be adjusted by the holes, polymer chains of the synthetic resin coating can be adjusted, and thereby distributing thesecondary film 24 with high density and attaching thesecondary film 24 firmly onto the irregularities and holes. - An impregnation layer of the
secondary film 24 is formed on the surface layer of theprimary film 23. Since thesecondary film 24 is integral with theprimary film 23, thesecondary film 24 is prevented from peeling. The porous structure of the primary film makes the secondary film to be adhered firmly and rigidly. - As described above, the present invention includes impregnation of the
work 3 and theprimary film 23, and impregnation of theprimary film 23 and thesecondary film 24, and thereby promoting integration thereof. Accordingly, they are adhered firmly and rigidly. Further, peeling and cracking when theprimary film 23 andsecondary film 24 are bent are prevented. - Additionally, the suboxide or oxide has insulation properties so that a current does not pass through the
work 3 via the suboxide or oxide even when the coating is made thinner. As a result, corrosion due to potential difference does not occur, and thereby improving corrosion resistance. - Since
primary film 23 is porous and soft, the fine particles of the coating easily enter and are engaged with thework 3, and disengagement from thework 3 is prevented. The film is reliably embedded and functions like an anchor component so that the coating is formed firmly and rigidly. Connection with other coating applied thereon is also promoted to form the coating rationally. - As described above, grains and crystals of the coating are respectively disposed independently and with high density. Accordingly, when a stress is applied to a part of the grains and crystals, the rest of the grains and crystals is not affected. Thus, when the
work 3 is bent as shown inFIGS. 15 and 16 after formation of the coating, the stress is dispersed. Further, peeling or cracking of the coating when the surface of the coating is damaged does not occur. - Thus, the
work 3 with the coating formed thereon has a good workability, and various processing techniques can be applied to thework 3. The surface of the coating was cut in a lattice pattern, and peeling of a cross-cut piece was tested. No peeling was observed and the coating with high adhesion was observed. - On the other hand,
FIG. 14 shows a state of aconventional coating 27 being formed. The grains and crystals of thecoating 27 are disposed loosely and with low density. To prevent corrosion caused by potential difference, such as pinholes, a very thick coating having a thickness of, for example, 50 to 100 μm, is required. Such coating is formed by applying theprimer 26 to thework 3 and then applying thecoating 27 in layers. - The above coating process requires labor and the amount of paint used also increases, whereby the working cost also increases. As described above, the grains and crystals of the coating are not independent and loosely disposed at low density, so that when a stress is applied to a part of the grains and crystals, it has impacts on the rest of the grains and crystals. When the
work 3 is bent or the surface of the coating is damaged after formation of the coating, thecoating 27 peels off and cracks, leading to a poor workability. - In the above embodiment, an electroplating technique based on the electrochemical action is adopted as a deposition method of the
primary film 23 on thework 3. Other deposition techniques that can be applied include an electroless plating. If additives such as nickel sulfate which is an agent for supplying metal ions, sodium hypophosphite which is an reducing agent, and powder ceramics are added in the composition of thetreatment liquid 2 in the electroless bath, deposition of the suboxide or oxide, or ceramics can be promoted by using simple equipment compared with the equipment for electrochemical action. - In the above embodiment, the
secondary film 24 is used as a coating, but a functional material, ceramics, Teflon (registered trademark), or fluorine may be used instead of the coating. - The functional materials include, for example, a polymer material, difluoride material, tetrafluoride material, fluorine compound, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, manganese dioxide, alumina, bentonite, hydroxyapatite, zeolite, talc, collinite, porous silica, gold, platinum, palladium, boron nitride, titanium nitride, aluminum nitride, DLC, magnetic material, metallic material, and carbon material. They may be used on the surface and the interface of the
primary film 23 or intervened inside theprimary film 23 for improving functionalities of the primary andsecondary films - As described above, respective fine particles and crystals of the coating are disposed independently and with high density on the
primary film 23 of the suboxide or oxide deposited on thework 3. The film is formed in a thin film having a thickness of one-fifth to one-third of the conventional ones. The fine particles and crystals are adhered to the minute irregularities on the surface of theprimary film 23 closely and firmly. - Thus, if a stress is applied to a part of the fine particles and crystals of the coating which is the
secondary film 24, the rest of the fine particles and crystals are not affected, resulting in improving workability of thework 3 after formation of the coating. - The present invention is suitable for a film-forming structure and a film-forming method on a work that include closely depositing a thin primary film on a work, the primary film being a suboxide or an oxide which is soft and has insulation properties and corrosion resistance. The work is integrated with the primary film to prevent the primary film from peeling, and thereby improving the workability. The thin secondary film such as a coating is attached to the primary film closely, thereby reducing the amount of paint used. The primary film is integrated with the secondary film to prevent the secondary film from peeling, improving the workability after formation of the secondary film, and thereby forming the primary and secondary films rationally.
