Description

Patented Mar. 17, 1942 PROCESS F COATING .lolm S. Thompson, Detroit, Mich, assignor to harass Rust Proof (Jemuany, Detroit, Mich.
No Drawing. Application September 28, 1935, Serial No. 42,670. Renewed August 28, 1938 This invention relates to the field of the chemical coating of metals. An object of the invention is the rendering of metallic surfaces resistant to corrosion. A further object of the inven-- tion is to form on metallic surfaces a chemical coating which resists corrosion when coated with a paint, lacquer, or enamel and provides a base coat to which the applied coatings adhere in a much firmer manner than they would to the bare metal.
Generally speaking, the invention comprises the use of solutions containing soluble hydrofluosilicic compounds with the addition of an oxidizing agent with or without accelerating agents. Hydrofiuosillcic acid (HaSiFa) and soluble salts of this acid are comprised generally. oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide may be employed and accelerating agents such as nitrates may be used.
By the use of these materials surfaces of metals such as iron, steel, aluminum and zinc and alloys are rendered rust resistant and in many cases coatings are formed which serve as a rust resisting base for paints, lacquers, enamels, and other coating compositions.
The process comprises generally treatment of the metal surface by any of the ordinary methods. .In the following examples which are given by way of illustration and not limitation the metallic surfaces were immersed in the solutions at a boiling }.temperature. The usual processing time was 5 minutes, although this may be decreased if desired. 'It is understood that the essential thing is to bring about a reaction between the surface of the metal and the solution and that the time, temperature, and other factors of operation may be varied considerably without departing from the scope of the invention. In the following examples 2" x 4" panels were employed in the usual case.
Example 1.--A sheet of aluminum was immersed in a 200 cc. solution to which had been added /2 gram chromic acid, 3 cc. HaSiFc. The metal was removed after 5 minutes at a boiling temperature and a hard, medium gray, very uni- ?form coating had been produced upon the surface "of the aluminum. When the same ingredients are used with the addition of 2 grams of sodium nit'rate, a brown coating is obtained which is liner .and softer.
Example 2.-The same conditions as in Example 1 were employed using a solution containing gram chromic acid and 5 grains manganese silicofluoride. A medium gray. very uniform, medium hard coating was obtained on the alumimm. when 2 grams of sodium nitrate is used with the other ingredients a harder, lighter, thinner coating is obtained.
Example 3.--Under the same conditions as in Example 1 a solution was employed containing V3 gram chromic acid, and 5 grams sodium silicofluoride. Th aluminum surface had a hard thin, light gray coating. When 2 grams of sodium nitrate is used with the other ingredients the same result is obtained.
Example 4.Under the same conditions as in Example 1 an aluminum sheet was treated with a solution containing 2 cc. of hydrogen peroxide and 3 cc. hydrofiuosilicic acid. Coatings were obtained which may be described as white, under a fairly hard gray surface. When 2 grams of sodium nitrate is employed with the other ingredients a medium gray, fairly hard coating is obtained.
Example 5.--Under the same conditions as in mample 1 an aluminum object is immersed in a solution to which has been added 1 gram potasslum permanganate and 3 cc. hydrofluosilicic acid.
A red-purple iridescent fairly hard coating is obtained. When 2 grams of sodium nitrate is used with the same ingredients 8 dark purple, soft and dusty coating is obtained.
Example 6.-Under the same conditions as in the preceding examples a solution was employed using 2 grams potassium dichromate and 5 cc. hy-
drofluosilicic acid. A rather soft gray coating is obtained on the aluminum. When 2 grams of sodium nitrate is used with the other ingredients 9. hard, brown coating is obtained.
Example 7.-Under the same conditions as in the preceding examples a solution is used containing 2 grams sodium chromate with 3 cc. hydrofluosiiicic acid. A dark gray, hard coating is obtained on the aluminum surface. When 2 grams of sodium nitrate is used together with the other ingredients a light brown, hard, thin coating is obtained.
Example 8.-Under the same conditions an aluminum surface is treated with a solution containing 2'grams chromium sulphat and 3 cc. hy-' drofluosilicic acid. There is obtained on the aluminum surface a soft green gray coating over a hard thin white. When 2 grams sodium nitrate is used together with the other ingredients, a thin,"
2 was taken. There was obtained on a steel surface a dark, gray, fairly hard coating.
Example lib-The solution employed was made up by adding 1 gram chromic acid, 2% cc. Basil;
and 2 grams sodium nitrate. A black, adherent coating .was obtained under a brown dust on a steel surface in 5 minutes.
Example 11.Under the same conditions as in the preceding examples a steel object was processed in a solution containing 2 grams chromlc acid, 5 grams manganese silicofluoride, 2% grams sodium nitrate for 1 to 5 minutes. There was obtained a black, adherent coating. The same results were obtained with the following ingredients in solution:
2 grams CrOa plus 5 gramsFeSiFa plus 2% grams N'aNOa 2 gr. Cr05+5 gr. FeSiFe+2 gr. MniNOa):
2 gr. Cra+3 cc. Fea(SiFs)s+2 gr. NaNO:
10 cc. H2SiFc+4 gr. KzCr0+2 gr. mason:
cc. HaSiFe+2 gr. KaCnO1+2 gr. ammo:
2 gr. Cr:(SO4)a+5 cc. HaSiFs+2 gr. NaNOl Example 12.--Under the same conditions as in the preceding examples a steel object was proc-' essed in a solution containing 1 cc. HsSiFs+3 gr. K1804 for 5 minutes. vA like solution with 2 gr. NaNO: added gave the same rust proofing results as tested in the salt spray, both being an improvement over non-treated. steel.
Example 13.-Other salts that may be substituted for K2804 in the combinations given in the example Just above are:
NaCl NaaSOs NaHzPOs NaHaPOs NMMOOQ KClO: NMWOs N82340:
HCl HNO:
HsPO4 H280:
HsPOa H010:
HClQ4 Boric acid Molybdio acid Tungstic acid Slight variations in proportions may be necessary in the chemicals used in these examples, but added corrosion resistance is. obtained from all of them.
Example 16.-Under the same conditions as in the preceding examples a steel object was processed in a solution containing 2 co.HaSiFs+l cc.
30% H202. A soft brown and black coating re sulted in 5 minutes. Alike solution containing 1 cc. HzSiFs+1 cc. 30% H202+2 gr. NaNO: produced a very uniform, adherent, light gray coating in 5 minutes. Both of these treatments gave exceptionally good salt spray test results.
Example 17.Under the same conditions as in the preceding examples a steel object was processed in a solution containing 2 cc. HaSiFs and suited in 5 minutes which was adherent under a loose top dust.
Example 18.Underthe same conditions as in the preceding examples a steel object was processed in a solution containing 1 cc. HaSiFs+2 gr. KaSzOa. A thin-iridescent coating resulted in 5 minutes but the addition of 2 grams NaNOl to this solution produced a dark gray coating.
Example 19.Under the same conditions as the preceding examples a steel object was processed in a solution containing 6 gr. NaIhPO4+6 gr. MnSiFs+4 gr. Mn(NO:)z and a gray adherent coating resulted in 15 minutes at boiling temperature. Manganese dihydrogen phosphate may be substituted for the sodium phosphate in this example and FeSiFs or ZllSiFs may be substituted for the MnSiF'o.
Example 20..Under the same conditions as in the preceding examples a steel object was processed in a solution containing 2 /2 cc. HzSiFs and 2 gr. NaNOs. A very uniform soft gray coating resulted in 5 minutes. 5 gr. MllSiFs may be substituted for the H1811"; in this combination and very good corrosion resistance is shown from both treatments.
Example 21.-A 200 cc. solution containing 5 gr. MnSiFa+.2 cc. 85% 8.1904 produced a good coating in 5 minutes. The addition of 2 grams NaNOl to this solution also produced a resistant 1 gr. KMnOa A gray and brown coating recoating in 5 minutes. In this example FeSiFs may be substituted for MnSiFs and Mn(NOa)z may be substituted for the NaNOa.
In thefollowing examples objects with a zinc surface were immersed in a boiling solution for 5 minutes.
Example 22.-1 gram CrO: plus 2 cc. HzSiFs.
A thin gray, fairly hard coating was obtained. When 2 grams of sodium nitrate is used with the other ingredients a coating is obtained which is gray with green tint, fairly hard and uniform. In this example if sodium nitrate is replaced by manganese nitrate or zinc nitrate similar results are obtained. When aluminum nitrate is employed in place of the sodium nitrate a coating is obtained which is hard, adherent and heavy gray.
Example 23.-2 grams chromium sulphate plus 2 cc. HzSiFs. When 2 grams of sodium nitrate is used with the other ingredients a uniform, dark, dull, hard, adherent coating was obtained.
Example 24.1 gram CrO: plus 1 gram KMnOr plus 2 cc. HaSiFa. A hard gray coating under a soft purple one is obtained. When 2 grams of sodium nitrate is used with the other ingredients similar results are obtained.
Example 25.1 gram CrO: plus 5 grams MnSiFs, A coating is obtained similar to that when using HaSiFs in place of MIlSiFs. When 2 grams sodium nitrate is employed with the other ingredients a green coating is obtained.
Example 26.--2 cc. HaSiFs plus 2 grams sodium nitrate. A transparent, fairly hard, dark gray coating is obtained. When zinc nitrate is .used in place of sodium nitrate, similar results are obtained. Example 27.--1 gram chromic acid plus 1 gram of K2820: plus 1 cc. mSiFa. A hard gray mixed dark and light coating is obtained. When 2 grams sodium nitrate are'used with the other ingredients a soft, dark green shiny finish is obtained. 1
In the above examples metals other than those specifically mentioned can be processed. Time, temperatures, proportions and ingredients can be varied well within the scope of the invention, the essence being the treatment of metals with solutions containing the SiFc radical together with the use of oxidizing agents with or without accelerating agents.
The examples mentioned above include hydrogen-peroxide, nitric acid and nitrates, chromic acid, chromates and dichromates, permanganates, sulphurous acid and sulphites, chloric and perchloric acids and chlorates, molybdates, tungstates, and persulphates, which are recognized oxidizing agents, and other compatible oxidizing agents may be used. The oxidizing agent must, of course, be a compatible material, that is, it must be soluble in the solution and its oxidizing power must not be destroyed by the other ingredients in the solution before it has an opportunity to exert its oxidizing power in the chemical reaction that takes place at the surface of the work.
It has been found that acceleration is gained by adding to these solutions a soluble salt of a metal below the respective metal being treated in the electromotive series. This acceleration is apparent in quickening of processing time, more uniformity in the coating and in producing aheavier coating. In the case of treating an iron surface, salts of metals slightly above iron in the electromotive series may be used.
