Crucible temperatures may vary from 900 C. to 1200" C. The molten glass is fritted by running the molten mass into water which causes a The frit may be dried at about 50 C. or less to shattering of the glass into small particles to form the frit.
The aluminum article is immersed in this bath, heated to a temperature of 60 C., for a period of two to ten minutes. The pretreated surface is then preferably fired for a period of two to thirty minutes at a temperature between 480 C. and 580 C. The optimum conditions as white or colored pigments, opacifying agents, or the of chromate pretreatment and firing will depend largely upon the composition of the aluminum alloy to be treated. In the case of any particular aluminum alloy, it can readily be determined whether or not sufficient enamel adherence to insure against water-spalling is obtained by is can be determined by means of the following accelerated test which correlates with water exposure results which may take weeks or months. This accelerated test consists in chromale-treating and enameling pieces of the particular alloy Such vehicles are, for exto be tested, and then exposing the enamel-metal interface by gouging, filing, or scratching the same, and immersing the test sample in 5% aqueous ammonium chloride solution for ninety-six hours at room temperature.

The particular optimum treatment and enameling conditions for a specific alloy can thereby be established. Once optimum treatment treatment of the aluminum surface is slightly more drastic conditions for a given alloy have been established and a chromate bath is used for continued treatment of the alloy structures or articles, it will, of course, be desirable to periodically analyze the treating bath and keep the chromate content and alkalinity of the bath within spraying, dipping, 55 any prescribed course of treatment.

The firing conditions are not critical, except that the article must be brought to a temperature high enough to melt the enamel but not so high that the metal article will be injured. The temperature necessary de pends to some extent on the particular aluminum alloy being enameled and upon the particular enamel composition being used. It is not generally necessary to employ'a temperature above about 550 C. and, inmost cases, the enamel may be satisfactorily fused at a temperature between 490 C. and 550 C. It is merely necessary to keep the article a t'the selected temperature for a few minutes to permit the enamel to fuse completely to a uniform, adherent, vitreous layer. Several coats may be applied, if desired.
The enamels of this invention have surprisingly low fusion points despite the fact that they do not contain any substantial quantity of lead. Moreover, these enamels have a degree of resistance to chemical agents which was not believed possible for a substantially lead-free enamel.
Furthermore, these enamels adhere exceedingly well to aluminum or aluminum alloy surfaces even when exposed to thermal shocks or considerable mechanical flexing of the metal. The following examples are given to illustrate certain preferred procedures for the enameling of aluminum and aluminum alloys.
Example I Aluminum alloy sheet stock composed of aluminum alloy 61 (containing, by weight, 0.25% copper, 0.6% silicon, 1.0% magnesium, and 2.5% chromium) is immersed for two minutes in a bath heated to 60 C. and consisting of the following:

The liquid and solid contents of the slurry are mixed in such proportions that the sheet after dipping in the slurry and draining will contain approximately 0.5 gram per square inch of surface. The enamel is fired at a temperature of 500 C. for nine minutes. The resulting enamel will have optimum properties; for example, it will be glossy and of a pleasing white color, which will adhere tenaciously to the substrate in life testing and in accelerated testing and it will be substantially unaffected by 10% citric acid in fifteen minutes, and will resist indefinitely the attack of a 10% household detergent solution at boiling temperature.

1.7% by weight Sb O 24.4% by weight SiO 27.4% by weight TiO,
The other conditions of Example I were followed as set forth in that example. The results were approximately identical to the results therein set forth.
Throughout the specification and claims, any reference to parts, proportions and percentages refers to parts, prolpgrtions and percentages by weight unless otherwise spec- Since many changes and modifications can be made in the above described details without departing from the nature and spirit thereof, it is to be understood that this invention is not to be limited except as set forth in the appended claims.
