Definitions

  • the amount of coating produced on the surface is controlled by varying the size of the coating zone.
  • the apparatus for accomplishing this has a coating chamber which may be increased or decreased in length.
  • the chamber itself may be telescoping, Or have a longitudinally movable end wall, or have a series of folding, transverse partitions or be made up of a series of separate, connecting coating zones, each with its own coating solution inlet.
  • This invention relates to an improved process, and the apparatus for use therein, for producing a coating on metal surfaces and more particularly it relates to a method and apparatus for applying chemical conversion coatings to metallic sheet and strip.
  • the coating compositions are conventionally brought into contact with the surface to be coated either by spraying the coated material on the metal surface or by immersing the metal surfaces to be coated in a body of the coating solution.
  • both coating techniques have been widely used in the past, both are subject to some disadvantages, particularly when used for coating metallic sheet and/or strip.
  • the spray application of the conversion coating materials may be carried out in a relatively short period of time, with fairly good control over the coating Weights obtained on the surfaces treated, it is sometimes difficult to obtain relatively heavy coating weights, e.g., in excess of about 30 to 50 milligrams per square foot, by this method.
  • an object of the present invention to provide an improved immersion type coating process, which process may be carried out in an appreciably shorter period of time with a much smaller volume of coating solution then has heretofore been possible.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide an improved immersion coating process in which the weight of coating obtained on the surface being treated is more easily controlled.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide improved apparatus of the immersion coating type for carrying out the process as has been described hereinabove.

  • FIG. 5 is a schematic, sectional side elevation, of yet another modified form of the apparatus of the present invention.
  • the present invention includes a method for forming a chemical conversion coating on metal sheet and strip which comprises passing the metal surface to be coated through a coating zone containing a liquid chemical conversion coating composition, flowing fresh coating composition through the coating zone in contact with the metal surface to be coated, maintaining said surface in contact with said coating composition in the coating zone for a period sufiicient to form the desired chemical conversion coating thereon and controlling the amount of coating produced on said surface by varying the size of the coating zone through Which the metal surface is passed.
  • metallic sheet or strip which is to be coated is passed through a coating zone which contains a liquid, chemical conversion coating composition.
  • the sheet or strip to be coated may be of any suitable metal which may be given a chemical conversion coating, such as ferrous metal, aluminum, zinc, magnesium, including alloys which are predominantly of these metals, and the like.
  • the coating composition in the coating zone may be any of the various chemical conversion coating materials, i.e., coating compositions wherein there is a reaction of the coating material and the metal surface being coated, and include those compositions which produce on the metal surface a phosphate, chromate, oxalate, sulfide, or oxide coatings.
  • the conversion coating composition may be aqueous solutions of alkali metal or ammonium phosphates, zinc phosphate, iron phosphates, manganese phosphates, oxalic acid, or oxalates, phosphoric acid, chromic acid, and the like, as are known to those in the art.
  • these conversion coating compositions generally also contain one or more accelerating or activating components which act to enhance the quality of the coating which is produced.
  • accelerating or activating components include simple and complex fluoride ions, nitrate ions, nitrite ions, chlo rate ions, molybdate ions, nickel ions, bromate ions, halide ions and the like.
  • the coating solutions used are formulated so as to contain the solution components; i.e., the coating and accelerating components, in the amounts and relative ratios which will provide the desired optimum coating results. Obviously, the exact quantities and ratios used will vary in each instance, depending upon the particular chemical coating solution which is used. Exemplary of typical coating solutions which may be used are those which contain the following components in amounts within the ranges indicated:
  • the hosphate, chromium and oxalate materials are the coating components of the solution, whereas the nitrate and chlorate materials, as well as otherssuch as molybdates, halides, bromates, nickel, silico fluorides and the like are the accelerating components.
  • the hexavalent chromium ions in the solutions may be provided by using chromic acid, alkali metal chromates and dichromates; the phosphate ions may be provided by the use of phosphoric acid, zinc phosphates, alkali metal phosphates; the fluoride ion accelerator may be added as hydrogen fluoride (hydrofluoric acid); alkali metal bifluorides,e.g., sodium bifluoride, fluoroboric acid, fluosilicic acid, oxalate ions may beadded as oxalic acid; while the nitrate may be added as zinc or alkali metal nitrate and the chlorates as the alkali metal chlorates, or the like.
  • these coating solutions are desirably aqueous solutions
  • the materials used are desirablysoluble, or at least dispersable, in water, so as to provide the desired solution.
  • water-soluble salts to supply the various coating and accelerating components, such as the alkali metal and ammonium salts and the like, care should be taken that other extraneous ions are not introduced into the coating solution which may be detrimental either to the coating solution or to the coating produced on the metal surfaces treated.
  • chromic acid as the source of hexavalent chromium ions
  • phosphoric acid or zinc phosphate as the source of phosphate ions
  • oxalic acid as the source of oxalate ions
  • hydrofluoric acid as the source of active fluorine in the composition; and the like.
  • the consumption of the accelerating ions in these conversion coating solutions takes place more rapidly than the consumption of the coating ions in the solution.
  • the coating solutions may be formulated using various ions in these solutions have been depleted to a level so that there is an insufficient quantity of the accelerator in the solution to eifect the formation of a coating having the desired quality, in a-reasonable coating time, the coating ions have generally been depleted to the extent of only about 20 to 30% of the total content in the coating solu tion.
  • fresh coating solution is passed through the coating zone and contacted with the surface to be coated at a rate such that the concentration of the accelerating ions in the solution is maintained at a substantially constant level.
  • the fresh coating solution is introduced into and removed from the coating zone ina minimum amount of at least 50 milliliters of solution for each square foot of metal surface being treated in the zone, although in some instances, lesser amounts may also satisfactorily be used.
  • the amount of coating solution which is passed through the coating zone is within the range of about 200 to 300 milliliters of solution per each square foot of metal being treated.
  • the actual flow rate of the coating solution through the coating zone will depend upon the rate at which the metal surface to be treated is passed through the coating zone as well as the size, i.e., width of the metal sheet or strip.
  • the size i.e., width of the metal sheet or strip.
  • a total of about 1000 square feet of metal .per minute is passing through the coating zone.
  • the actual flow rate of the coating composition through the coating zone would be about 250,000 milliliters per minute or about 64 gallons per minute.
  • the metal surface to be coated is maintained in contact with the chemical conversion coating solution for a period sufficient to efiect the formation of the desired coating on the metal surface.
  • the time available for the metal surface to be in contact with the coating solution in the coating zone will depend upon the size of the coating zone and the rate at which the metal is passed therethrough. It has been found that because fresh coating solution is continually flowing in contact with the metal surface as it passes through the coating zone, so that the accelerating ions in the coating solution are constantly maintained at a substantially even, high level, the desired coating is formed on the metal surface being treated in appreciably shorter periods of time than have heretofore been possible. Typical contact times which have been found to be suitable are within the range of about 1 to 20 seconds, with contact times within the range of about 2 to 8 seconds being preferred.
  • the coating zone through which the metal to be coated is passed in contact with the coating solution may be of any suitable configuration which has means for varying the size of the coating zone.
  • the coating zone is a simple, box-like structure which is relatively shallow but which has suflicient depth to permit a metallic sheet or strip to be completely immersed in the coating solution as it passes through the coating zoneJ
  • the entrance to and exit from the coating zone are disposed in the opposing end walls of the coating zone so that the sheet or strip to be coated passes through these end walls, rather than being introduced through the top of the coating zone. Any suitable means for adjusting the relative size of the coating zone may be used.
  • the coating zone may be formed with one or more telescoping sections, so that the zone may be lengthened or shortened to increase or decrease its size.
  • the fluid or coating solution inlet to the coating zone may be positioned adjacent the end of the coating zone from which the metal treated is removed and the coating zone may be provided with a movable partition or panel which is transverse of the coating zone and through which the metal sheet or strip to be coated is passed.
  • the coating zone may be provided with a number of transverse, folding panels or partitions, each provided with a suitable opening through which the sheet or strip to be treated is passed.
  • the effective length of such a coating zone may then be changed by raising different of these panels, the other panels remaining folded flat against the bottom of the coating zone.
  • the coating zone may be provided with several permanent transverse panels or partitions, through which the metal sheet or strip is passed, so that the coating zone is divided into a number of consecutive sections. In such a configuration, a coating solution inlet and outlet would be provided in each of these sections. It is believed that these and other means for effecting the change in the size of the coating zone will be apparent to those in the art.
  • a coating weight of milligrams per square foot is being obtained on a metal strip which is traveling at the rate of 100 feet per minute when there is coating solution in the entire coating zone, by reducing the portion of the coating zone which contains the coating solution to onehalf that of the full coating zone, a coating weight of only 25 milligrams per square foot can be obtained without having to change the speed at which the stri is traveling. This is, therefore, a much simplier and more easily used method of controlling the coating weight, which makes it possible to maintain a substantially constant operation in the coating line.
  • the metal surface to be coated is conditioned prior to being introduced into the coating solution so that the reaction of the coating solution with the metal surface will take place more quickly.
  • various treatments may be used to effect this conditioning, in general, it has been found to be preferable to pass the metal sheet or strip between one or more sets of squeegee rolls prior to bringing it into contact with the coating solution.
  • the present invention also includes novel apparatus for carrying out this process.
  • This apparatus comprises a coating chamber, means for introducing a surface to be coated into said chamber, means for removing the thus-coated surface from said chamber, means for introducing a coating composition into said coating chamber, means for removing the coating composition from said coating chamber, said latter two means acting in conjunction to provide a sufficient amount of coating composition in said chamber as to maintain the surface to be coated substantially immersed in the coating composition, and adjusting means for varying the size of said coating chamber, whereby the length of time the surface to be coated is immersed in the coating composition while in the coating chamber may be changed.
  • the apparatus of the present invention comprises a coating chamber, which coating chamber may be of any suitable configuration.
  • the coating chamber has a box-like construction, having a relatively shallow depth with respect to its width and length.
  • This coating chamber is provided with means for introducing a surface to be coated, such as metallic sheet or strip, into the coating chamber, wherein it is brought into contact with a suitable coating composition.
  • the means for introducing the surfaces to be coated into the coating chamber are provided in the end walls of the chamber so that the sheet or strip may move in a substantially horizontal direction, rather than being dipped into the coating chamber from above.
  • This may be accomplished by providing suitable apertures or slots in the end walls of the coating chamber, which slots may be provided with flexible sealing strips through which the metallic sheet or strip passes and which will prevent or at least minimize the flow of coating solution out of the coating chamber through the slots.
  • such sealing strips are not required.
  • the surfaces to be coated may also be introduced into the coating chamber from the top, as for example, by passing it under a suitable bar or roller in the bottom of the coating chamber which serves to maintain the metallic strip under the surface of the coating solution in the chamber.
  • the coating chamber is provided with means whereby the effective length of the chamber which contains the coated solution may be varied, thus varying the length of time that the metal surface is in contact with the coating solution, for any given rate of speed of the metallic sheet or strip which is being treated.
  • the coating time, and hence the coating weight obtained can be maintained constant.
  • Various means may be provided whereby this variation in the coating chamber may be obtained.
  • the coating chamber itself may be formed of one or more telescoping sections whereby the chamber may be shortened or lengthened.
  • the coating chamber may be provided with a transverse wall or partition which is movable longitudinally in the chamber, thereby changing the length of the chamber which will contain the coating solution.

In such configuration, the effective coating length of the coating chamber is varied depending upon the number of the separate coating zones which are utilized.
  • the coating apparatus of the present invention is provided with a set of opposed squeegee rolls which are positioned adjacent the entrance and exit ends of the coated chamber. It has been found that the squeegee rolls which are adjacent the entrance end of the coating chamber help to condition the metal surface to be coated, thus making it possible to effect the coating operation in a shorter period of time, while the rolls adjacent the exit end of the coating chamber remove any excess coating solution which is carried out of the coating chamber by the metal surface.
  • the coating apparatus of the present invention may be positioned with respect to the metal surface to be coated in any convenient manner.
  • the placement of the coating chamber is preferably such that the metallic surface to be treated will pass through the coating chamber with substantially no deviation from a horizontal plane.
