Definitions

  • the acid bath is to be composed of by weight 3 to 9 parts of nitric acid, 31 to 33 parts of muriatic acid, 10
  • the latter could be composed, for example, by an aqueous solution containing 3 to 10% of caustic soda, 2 to 8% of caustic potash and 5 to 15% of ammonia salts.
  • the iron piece After being neutralized for one or two minutes in an alkaline bath and washed, the iron piece can now be varnished, tinned, galvanized or galvanoplastlcally treated, etc., being understood that enamelling is included under the mention varnish.
  • This condition could be prolonged indefinely by submitting the treated surface to the action oi a silicate solution varying from 2.5 to 12% of alkalinity at the temperature of to 1009 C.
  • the time of immersion varies with the volume of the object, but must preferably be such that the object acquires in the bath a temperature of at least 50 0., thus allowing for immediate selfdrying, that is to say without requiring, for example, drying ovens.
  • the surface of the iron thustreated will remain unaltered for an indefinite period. It will sufflce to wash it with warm water should it at any time require varnishing, tinning, galvanizing etc. If the varnish contains silica and its application requires thermical treatment, then washing in hot water can be suppressed.
  • Sheet iron treated according to the process of the present invention is suitable for all manufacturing uses within the limits of the above de-v scription, but particularly for replacing tin plate in the manufacture of recipients for the cannin of food, in which case it would be suflicient to surface it with a varnish resisting food sterilizing treatment, each sheet iron until now unsuitable for this purpose being able to be treated without any dimculty in order to have all the necessary qualities.
  • a process for the treatment of iron in order to obtain a clean metallic surface in which the iron to be treated is reacted for -5 to 30 minutes in an acid bath composed of by weight 3 to 9 parts of nitric acid, 31 to 33 parts of muriatic acid, 10 to 20 parts of sulphuric acid, 5 to 12 parts of hydrogen sulphide, 1 to 7 parts of sodium acetate and 2 to 9 parts of a compound from the group consisting of potassium hydrogen phosphate (Kai-IP04) and potassium ortho phosphate (KaPOr) for parts of water, is then withdrawn from said acid bath and immersed in an alkaline bath.
  • Kai-IP04 potassium hydrogen phosphate
  • KaPOr potassium ortho phosphate
