Definitions
- This invention relates to coatings for electrical steel strip and more especially, but not exclusively, to coatings of annealable and non-annealable UV curable lacquers for non- oriented electrical steel strip.
- non-oriented electrical steel strip on one or both surfaces with an insulation lacquer in order to improve the performance of the strip when employed, for example, in a magnetic core of an electrical machine.
- Insulation coatings on electrical steel laminations reduce the eddy current losses in a stack of such laminations and hence reduce power losses in the steel.
- Co-pending International Application WO 98/24557 is directed to apparatus for applying a coating of an insulation layer to a moving surface of a strip which comprises a rotatable roller whose surface defines a multiplicity of cells and a reservoir containing a bath of heated organic, inorganic/organic or UV curable acrylic or cationic lacquer in which a part of the roller surface is immersed when rotating. Insulating lacquer enters the cells of the roller surface and excess lacquer is wiped from the roller surface.
- a rotatable applicator roll having a substantially plain surface free of grooves or other indentations is rotated with the surface in contact with the surface of the lacquer carrying roller whereby lacquer present in the cells of the roller is transferred to the surface of the applicator roll.
- the surface to be coated is moved continuously past and in contact with the roll surface to apply a uniform coating of lacquer to that surface.
- the strip is preferably a strip of non- oriented electrical steel.
- UV curable lacquers are well established in the printing industry but because of the stringent requirements for coatings on electrical steel such coatings have not been used in the electrical steels industry.
- Lacquers which typically comprise inter alia monomers, acrylate esters, prepolymers, photoinitiators, adhesion promoters, wetting agents, (referred to below as a standard resin) are known. Combinations of these additives together with the additions of talc and phosphates have result in the development by the Applicants of a lacquer which bonds well to electrical steel strip and exhibits other good properties.
- the lacquer has, however, been found to not be totally satisfactory when magnetic cores produced from laminations of the coated strip are subj ected to annealing at temperatures of around 800 ° C . This is because of a tendency for the coated steel laminations to stick together at such temperatures.
- the lacquer must resist the anneal without resulting in the laminations adhering together. This requires that the lacquer leaves a bonded residue on the steel surface after the anneal.
- This invention sets out to provide for electrical steel strip annealable UV curable lacquers which do not suffer from the disadvantages discussed above.
- a UV curable lacquer which comprises a standard resin (as hereinbefore defined) to which has been added a filler comprising talc and/or zinc phosphate and magnesium borate, the filler being present in a quantity not greater than 30% by weight.
- talc, zinc phosphate and magnesium borate are typically between 2 and 28% by weight.
- the filler may be present in a quantity of less than 25% by weight. In one embodiment, the maximum filler content is 20% by weight; in another embodiment the maximum filler content is 15% by weight. In a preferred embodiment the filler content is 9% by weight.
- compositions have been prepared and evaluated for response to annealing and it has been established that reducing the filler content to below 30% by weight reduced the scuffing problem to acceptable limits.
- a preferred lacquer therefore includes around 5% talc, 2% zinc phosphate and 2 % magnesium borate (5 ,2,2) in addition to the standard resin composition.
- lacquers in accordance with the invention may include around
- the basic resin may be acrylic or cationic based.
- lacquers have very high viscosity, typically 350 poise, and need to be heated to reduce the viscosity sufficiently to enable application to the steel strip to be commercially feasible, as indicated in our co-pending International Application WO 98/24557.
- strip samples were coated using various compositions of annealable lacquers.
- the samples were coated on both sides using a suitable laboratory coating unit.
- the coating thickness of the samples was typically l.0-1.6 ⁇ . Samples covering the full range of compositions were annealed in a non-decarburising or a decarburising furnace.
- compositions of the lacquers in terms of added filler are given in Table 1.
- the range of filler content was varied between 9 and 30% enabling the effect of the fillers on adhesion, surface roughness, lacquer viscosity, scuff resistance and insulation resistance before and after anneal at 800 °C to be established.
- Insulation resistance values after anneal were very good, even for the samples with only 9-16% filler. This indicates that it is possible to produce lacquers with lower filler contents while still retaining reasonable values of insulation resistance and good adhesion after anneal.
- Table 2 shows the data determined in relation to viscosity and yield of some of the sample lacquers. It is considered that viscosities greater than 100 Poise and yield values of less than 1000 dynes are desirable, for ease of commercial manufacture of the lacquer. On the basis of the results obtained, use of a lower viscosity lacquer exhibiting the desired properties is feasible.
- Peak count (Pc) value ranged from 217-275/inch, much lower than the 400/inch level which gives rise to scuffing problems when coating is produced on a pilot line.
- Insulation resistance data after anneal of the sample is also given in Table 3, and it can be seen that insulation resistance values after anneal ranged from 0.24-0.36 ohm.cm 2 . These values are considered satisfactory for many semi-processed electrical steel applications. Higher values would, however, be preferred. The results obtained for the low filler content formulations of this evaluation (9-19%) were therefore considered to be satisfactory.
- Samples from each section of coated strip were cut into suitable size specimens for evaluation of the following properties: coating thickness, insulation resistance before and after anneal at 800 °C, chemical resistance, surface roughness, appearance after anneal, annealability and scuff resistance.
- coated samples of the formulations were annealed in a decarburising furnace.
- insulation resistance values of the reduced filler samples before anneal were typically 2.37-4.54 ohm.cm 2 per lamination.
- the coating thickness of these samples was ⁇ 0.9-1.35/t. In general, higher values of coating thickness tend to result in higher values of insulation resistance before anneal.
- the insulation resistance after anneal appeared to be independent of coating thickness at the level applied, and is no doubt dependent on the percentage of inorganic fillers added to the resin. Coating temperature had little effect on final insulation resistance properties for the range considered (35°C-45°C).
- a minimum surface insulation resistance value of 5 ohm.cm 2 per lamination is required for coated steel for fully processed applications . Slightly thicker UV coatings may be required to satisfy the insulation requirement for such applications. Only a thin anti- stick coating is required for semi-processed applications were insulation resistance is not a major concern.
- insulation resistance values were acceptable for a thin coating for semi- processed applications.
- the use of slightly thicker coatings than normal may be necessary for fully processed applications.
- lacquers in accordance with the invention include the following: the coated steel has excellent chemical resistance; the coating can be applied very thinly when using the apparatus disclosed in WO 98/24557; the coated strip has excellent punchability and welding characteristics; and the lacquers are odourless.
