Definitions

  • ABSTRACT Low-fuming galvanizing fluxes are provided which exhibit superior fluxing activity and which contain zinc chloride or zinc bromide and a zinc phosphate or zinc phosphite as the active agents.
  • Galvanizing fluxes of this invention may also contain a small amount of a foaming agent and the chloride or bromide of sodium, potassium, lithium, magnesium and/or calcium.
  • a top flux and possibly even a preflux is employed in the galvanizing of metal articles.
  • Such fluxes traditionally contained ammonium chloride or some ammonium halide at a high concentration (greater than 9 percent) to aid in the effective cleaning and wetting of the surface of the article to be galvanized.
  • such expedients promoted the fluidity of the flux and effectively stirred the flux mixture via sublimation or the evolution of decomposition products.
  • the use of fluxes containing such agents allows a continuous, adherent film of zinc, substantially free of pinholes and other imperfections to be deposited on the surface of the substrate tobe galvanized.
  • the galvanizing fluxes of this invention may also contain a small amount of a foaming agent and/or the chloride or bromide salt of sodium, potassium, lithium, magnesium and/or calcium.
  • Small amounts of ammonium halide, preferably ammonium chloride or ammonium bromide, most preferably ammonium chloride may also be used in the fluxes of this invention without the detriment heretofore attendant upon its use.
  • the unique fluxes of this invention retain their effectiveness notwithstanding quite broad variation in their composition.
  • the fluxes of this invention must contain either a zinc phosphate or zinc phosphite and zinc chloride or zinc bromide as an adjuvant, preferably zinc chloride. While the amounts of these essential agents in the flux composition may be varied widely, preferably from about to about parts by weight of the zinc chloride or bromide and about 3 to about 15 parts by weight of the zinc phosphate or zinc phosphite are employed.
  • the zinc phosphate is a zinc orthophosphate, a zinc triphosphate, a zinc metaphosphate, a zinc pyrophosphate or a zinc ammonium phosphate compound.
  • suitable phosphates include ZN2P207 Any suitable zinc phosphite may also be employed.
  • the galvanizing flux will contain preferably from 80 to 100 parts by weight of the desired admixture.
  • the amounts of the chloride or bromide salts of sodium, potassium, lithium, magnesium and/or calcium which are employed must be such that an admixture of the zinc chloride or zinc bromide with one or more of the salts will be completely molten at the operatingtemperature of the bath.
  • compositions contain from 20 to 60 parts by weight of the chloride or bromide salt of sodium, potassium, lithium, magnesium and/or calcium and 40 to 80 parts by weight of the zinc chloride and/or zinc bromide and are completely molten at temperatures of from about420 to 425C, most preferably 421C.
  • foaming agent or surfactant or stabilizer
  • concentrations of from to about 0.5 part by weight of the foaming agent are used.
  • Any suitable foaming agent which acts to stadiamino naphthalene, 1,3, 6-hexane triamine, propylene triamine, 1,2,3-benzene triamine, 2,6-diamino pyridine and the like and mixtures thereof.
  • an ammonium halide such as ammonium chloride and/or ammonium bromide and the like, preferably ammonium chloride is used but only at concentrations of from 0 up to a maximum of about 5 parts by weight.
  • the decomposition rate of the ammonium halide at such low concentrations is very slow and only a negligible amount of decomposition takes place at any given time.
  • the effectiveness of the ammonium halide at such low concentrations is primarily limited to the initiation of' the activity of the flux at the start-up of v fluxing operations after which the zinc phosphate or zinc phosphite compound takes overas the active ingredient.
  • any of the various embodiments of this invention may be combined in any given ates efficiently and effectively without the noxious fumes of commercial ammonium chloride containing fluxes and without the less than excellent results which attend the use of prior art fluxes containing no ammonium chloride or else only low concentrations of the ammonium compound.
  • the fluxes of this invention are advantageously em ployed whether the bath metal is zinc, as in conventional galvanizing, a zinc alloy or even an alloy such as Su-Pb which is used in terne coatingl
  • articles of any desired shape can be coated with the bath metal using the fluxes'of this invention as discussed, for example, in Hat-Dip Galvanizing Practice, William H. S'powers, Jr., The Penton Publishing Company, Cleveland, Ohio, 1938, pp. 32-70.
  • the instant fluxes are most advantageous for the coating of ferrous and tin articles.
  • the first method utilizes a Brookfield viscometer, model LVT, modified to measure viscosities of fluxes at elevated temperatures by the insertion of an adaptor between the spindles and the meter to provide thermal insulation.
  • the adaptor which is tubular in shape, constructed of heat resistant cloth reinforced phenolic resin, measures 1% L X /2 OD X 54; lDand weighs 4.2

  • the other end of the adaptor is similarly attached to the meter shaft so that metal to metal contact between the spindle and shaft is prevented
  • a thin asbestos sheet is also placed between the spindle-guard bracket and the meter to provide further thermal insulation to the meter.
  • the spindle In measuring flux viscosity, the spindle is submerged V in molten flux maintained at a temperature of 355C.

  • a galvanizing kettle of about X 10 X l0 inch size containing molten zinc at 455C. is used to evaluate the fluxes of Examples A, B and 1-1 l-.'The Prime Western grade zinc is used in the evaluation.
  • Approximately 300 grams of the flux are placed in the kettle which is equipped with a darn dividing the molten zinc surface into two halves.
  • the flux is placed on the surface of one of the halves in one spot from which it melts away to cover that half of the molten zinc surface. All of the flux melts in about 4 minutes.
  • the flux is heated for about 10 minutes longer before galvanizing is begun. I Soft steel coupons are used toevaluate the effectiveness of the flux.
  • Coupons of 3% X 2% X /4 inch in size are first degreased by heating in a solution prepared by dissolving 39 grams of sodium hydroxide, 104 grams of sodium metasilicate and 2.5 grams of a sodium hydrocarbon sulfonate wetting agent in a sufficient amount of water to make 1 gallon solution. After being heated at 88C. for minutes in this solution, the coupons are rinsed and pickled in a 10 percent sulfuric acid solution at 70C. for 20 minutes. After being rinsed with water the coupons are allowed to dry.
  • the coupons When the coupons are completely dry, they are lowered slowly into the molten zinc through the flux which has been heated for l0 minutes on the surface of the molten zinc at 455C. The coupons are held in thezinc for 90 seconds before being withdrawn through the molten zinc surface which does not contain a layer of flux and they are then cooled with water.

  • the coatings obtained using this flux covered the entire surface of the coupon and were smooth, lustrous, uniform and defectfree'.
