Definitions
- This invention concerns a composition for coating metal surfaces and to a process for coating metal surfaces.
- a zinc-coated steel surface for example, has a tendency, if untreated, to develop a white coloured powdery deposit in storage, so-called "white rust", which detracts from the appearance of the surface and possibly adversely affects the key of paint and the like onto the surface.
- European Patent Specification No. 356855 relates to the problem outlined above. That specification refers to the established usage of chromium compounds to achieve the inhibition of corrosion of aluminium and zinc, and cites the considerable problems of effluent monitoring and disposal and the need to take precautions to ensure the protection of plant operatives which arises from the extremely toxic nature of the chromium compounds. The specification teaches that certain aluminium-zirconium complexes may be used in place of the chromium compounds.
- European Patent Specification No. 356855 teaches the coating of the complex- treated surface, after rinsing and drying, with an aqueous solution, emulsion or dispersion of a film-forming agent, such as polyacrylic acid.
- the aluminium-zirconium complex is used at concentrations of 0.1% or 1.0% by volume of the commercial form, which contains 20-24% wt of the complex, and the organic film- forming composition in 0.5 to 1 g/1.
- the present invention it has been found that excellent corrosion prevention and adhesion properties may be obtained on the aforesaid metals, for example on phosphated or non-phosphated surfaces of zinc-, zinc alloy- or aluminium-coated metals, using a one-coat non-rinse process, by the use of a treating composition characterised in that the composition comprises an aqueous solution, emulsion or dispersion of an organic film-forming polymer and one or more aluminium-zirconium complexes.
- Galvanised steel panels coated with the compositions of the present invention demonstrate a long ter resistance to surface deterioration commensurate with known chromium-based coatings. Further, the compositions of the present invention tend not to suffer the "shrinkage" problems associated with known aluminozirconate coatings.
- Aluminium-zirconium complexes which may be utilised according to the invention are, for example, the reaction product of a chelated aluminium moiety, a zirconium oxyhalide and an organofuctional ligand.
- the organofunctional ligand is complexed with and chemically bound to the chelated aluminium moiety and the zirconium moiety.
- the chelate-stabilised aluminium moiety has the general formula: Al 2 (OR 1 0) a A b B c (I) wherein .
- a and B are halo-, preferably chloro-, or hydroxy-,
- a is a numerical value of from 0.05 to 2, preferably from 0.1 to 1,
- -OR ⁇ O- is either an alpha-beta or alpha-gamma glycol group in which R- ⁇ is an alkyl, alkenyl, or alkynyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, preferably an alkyl group and preferably having 2 or 3 carbon atoms; or an alpha-hydroxy carboxylic acid residue of the formula -0CH(R3)-C00H, where R-- is H- or an alkyl- group having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, preferably from 2 to 3 carbon atoms.
- the zirconium oxyhalide preferably an oxychloride, has the general formula:
- the organofunctional ligand (LIG) is derived from one or more of the following:
- an alkyl-, alkenyl-, alkynyl-, aryl- or aralkyl-carboxylic acid having from 2 to 36 carbon atoms, preferably from 2 to 18 carbon atoms, more preferably from 4 to 18 carbon atoms and even more preferably from 2 to 6 carbon atoms;
- an aminofunctional carboxylic acid having from 2 to 36 carbon atoms, preferably from 2 to 18 carbon atoms, more preferably from 4 to 18 carbon atoms and more preferably from 2 to 6 carbon atoms;
- an epoxy functional carboxylic acid having from 2 to 18 carbon atoms, preferably from 2 to 6 carbon atoms.
- the aluminium-zirconium complex may be empirically represented by the general formula:
- one of the A or B groups may be replaced by a (Ci-C ⁇ jalkoxy- group, x, y and z are independantly at least
- the molar ratio of x to z may vary from 1.5 to 10 with the preferred ratio being from 3 to 6 and the ratio of (y/(2x + z)) may vary from 0.05 to 3, preferably from 0.05 to 2.0, and more preferably from 0.1 to 0.5.
- the aluminium-zirconium complexes utilised according to this invention may be those available under the Trade Name Manchem as about 20% to 25% vol solutions in polar solvents such as the lower alcohols, glycols, or glycol ethers of which suitable products are, for example,those designated APG-X, in which the carboxylic acid component is H2-(CH2)2"COOH, or CPG or CPM, in which the carboxylic acid components are HOOC-(CH2)4-COOH.
- polar solvents such as the lower alcohols, glycols, or glycol ethers of which suitable products are, for example,those designated APG-X, in which the carboxylic acid component is H2-(CH2)2"COOH, or CPG or CPM, in which the carboxylic acid components are HOOC-(CH2)4-COOH.
- the organic film-forming polymer may be any polymer which is available as and curable in an aqueous solution dispersion or emulsion.
- the film- forming polymer is selected from suitable vinyl polymers or copolymers, for example vinyl-acrylic copolymers, polyacrylic and polymethacrylic acids, and polyacrylates and polymethacrylates.
- suitable vinyl polymers or copolymers for example vinyl-acrylic copolymers, polyacrylic and polymethacrylic acids, and polyacrylates and polymethacrylates.
- the most preferred film-forming polymers are emulsions of acrylic coplymers such as those emulsions available under the Trade Name Neocryl (from ICI) .
- such polymers may themselves contain corrosion inhibitors.
- a suitable solids content for the organic film-forming polymer is from about 30% to 50%, or even up to 75%, by weight.
- the aluminium-zirconium complex may be present in the composition of the present invention in an amount of from 0.2% to 20% by -fe- weight based on the weight of the total aqueous composition although particularly successful results have been achieved using at least 5% by weight, for example 5 to 20% by weight, on the same basis.
- the film-forming polymer may be present in greater than 2%, for example from 2% to 20%, by weight of polymer solids on the same basis.
- a solution of the aluminium-zirconium compound in an organic polar water-miscible solvent may be mixed with the aqueous solution, dispersion, or emulsion of the film- forming polymer, preferably to give the above stated solids concentrations and the resulting product may therefore have a substantial content of said organic polar solvent.
- a substantial proportion of a silane for example from 2 to 15% by weight of a commercial silane composition which may for example contain from 50% to 95% active material, based on the weight of the total aqueous composition, is included in the composition of this invention to increase the adhesion of subsequent organic surface coatings to the treated metal surface.
- the silane has alkoxy groups, preferably 2 or 3 such groups, hydrolysis of which will permit reaction with active sites on the metal substrate, and 1 or more organic groups capable of giving compatability with the film-forming polymer and/or polymers present in subsequent surface coatings.
- silanes are 3-aminopropyl-triethoxysilane, N- aminoethyl-3-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane and vinyl triethoxysilane which may suitably be in the form of 50% to 95% concentration products.
- a small quantity of a defoamer and/or surfactant is also preferably included.

- the composition according to the present invention may be applied to the metal surfaces to be treated for example to a metal coil after hot dip or electrogalvanising or aluminium coating and after the temperature of the metal has fallen to below about 85°C preferably to below 80°C.
- the method of application may be by spray or by immersion with surplus liquid being removed, suitably by passing the metal between rollers or by the use of an air-knife.
- the metal may then be air or oven dried, for example at from 65°C to 85°C.
- the thickness of the coating is preferably up to about 50 microns, for example 1 to 10 microns which may be controlled by adjusting the solids concentration of the treating composition appropriately.
- compositions of the present invention adhere strongly to the metal surface to which they are applied, help to retain the metal surface in bright, uncorroded form, and give a good key to subsequent surface coatings. Accordingly, the compositions of the present invention may suitably be used in or as coatings, such as primers or finishes.
- FIG 1 is a photograph of a galvanised steel panel treated in accordance with the process of EP-A-0356855 and illustrates the problems of "shrinkage" where the metal surface has dark and light regions indicating where the metal surface is coated with zircoaluminate composition or uncoated respectively.
