    摘要: The present invention relates to galvanized steel having a high aluminum content in the coating, as well as a batch hot-dip galvanization process for making such steel. The galvanized steel herein has a coating comprising an inner layer of intermetallic iron aluminum compounds, such as Fe2Al5 (which may have some zinc present), and an outer layer of intermetallic zinc aluminum compounds containing from about 17% to about 40% (preferably about 22%, the Zn—Al eutectoid) aluminum (which may have some iron present). The batch hot-dip galvanization process for making such steel comprises: (a) fluxing the steel by electroless plating on the surface of the steel of a metal such as tin, copper or nickel; and (b) dipping the fluxed steel into a molten galvanization bath comprising zinc and from about 17% to about 40% aluminum.

    摘要: A method of treating a metal substrate by applying a first coating treatment solution of 0.1% by volume of at least one silane, wherein the silane consists only of a multi-functional silane having at least two trisubstituted silyl groups, wherein the substituents are individually chosen from the group consisting of alkoxy and acetoxy, and wherein the multi-functional silane has been at least partially hydrolyzed and wherein the first coating treatment solution has a pH of less than about 7.

    摘要: An improved fluxing method for the galvanization of steel, particularly batch galvanization, is disclosed. In this process, a metallic element is deposited (for example, by electroless plating) on the surface of the steel sheet or other article prior to its being dipped in the galvanization bath. Preferred metals for use in this fluxing process are tin, copper, nickel, with tin being more preferred, and mixtures of copper and tin being most preferred. This metallic film layer has a thickness between about 5 and about 50 nm. The process of the present invention provides a number of benefits when compared to conventional fluxing processes: for example, it is compatible with the inclusion of aluminum in the galvanization bath; it permits a greater time delay between the fluxing and galvanization operations; and it eliminates the formation of hydrogen chloride or other toxic fumes when the fluxed article is dipped in the molten zinc galvanization bath. Additionally, the present process permits the combination of the fluxing and pickling steps into a single step, providing a shorter and more efficient galvanization process than is conventionally used. The fluxing method may also be used in a continuous galvanization process.

    摘要: Painted metal sheet pretreated with a composite coating including an insoluble, inorganic inner layer and an organic outer layer. The inorganic layer is formed by rinsing the sheet with an alkaline solution containing at least 0.005M of at least one of a dissolved silicate or a dissolved aluminate. The sheet is dried to form an inorganic layer having a thickness of at least 2 .ANG.. The inorganically coated sheet then is rinsed with a solution containing at least 0.1 vol.-% of a hydrolyzed silane and at least 0.02 vol.-% of a hydrolyzed crosslinking agent. The silane treated sheet is dried to form a siloxane layer having an average thickness at least 5 .ANG.. After being painted, the siloxane layer forms an adherent bond between the paint and the metal substrate. The metal preferably is a chromium alloyed steel and may be etched prior to being rinsed with the alkaline solution to remove chromium oxide to further enhance the paint adhesion. Preferred rinsing times for the etchant, the alkaline solution and the silane solution are 2-5 seconds, 15-30 seconds and 5-10 seconds, respectively.

    摘要: This invention is a blended powder mixture including a thermosetting resin and a solid, non-hydrolyzed, functional low molecular weight organosilane coupling agent. The powder mixture may be used to form a composite coating to protect a steel substrate from corrosion. The composite coating is formed by coating the substrate with an inorganic layer such as a silicate, depositing the powder mixture over the inorganic layer, heating the substrate to a temperature at least equal to the curing temperature of the resin and maintaining the substrate at the curing temperature for sufficient time to crosslink the resin and to diffuse the organosilane to the substrate whereby the crosslinked layer is coupled to the inorganic layer by the organosilane. The powder mixture includes 0.01-10 wt. % organosilane having a melting point no greater than the curing temperature of the resin. Preferred thermosetting resins include epoxy, polyester, epoxy-polyester, acrylic, acrylic-urethane or fluorovinyl.
