The conversion coatings of the present invention are generally chromium-free and can improve the corrosion resistance of treated surfaces and the adhesion of dry organic finishes to those treated surfaces. In addition, the conversion coating of the present invention is rarely affected by subsequent heating and / or baking steps. The invention can be used for the treatment of steel and other metals, but is particularly suitable for the treatment of zinc, zinc alloys, aluminum and aluminum alloys. φ (2) Prior technology: In order to form a coating to protect the metal from corrosion and to improve the adhesion of the subsequently applied dry organic finish, various conversion coatings suitable for metal surfaces have been suggested in previous techniques. These conversion coatings are produced by treating a metal surface with a solution of various chemicals, and these chemical solutions react with the surface to form a desired coating. Common conversion coating compositions typically include phosphates and chromates. Phosphate conversion coatings, especially on steel, have been used for a long time. The simplest phosphate solution includes an aqueous solution of an alkali metal phosphate which can react with iron, aluminum and / or zinc to form a phosphate conversion coating. Although in many applications, phosphate conversion coatings can increase the corrosion resistance of treated surfaces and the adhesion of dry organic finishes that are subsequently applied, better results are needed. Chromate conversion coatings generally provide much better corrosion resistance and adhesion than phosphate coatings. However, chromate conversion coatings do not provide good -6- 200303934 good corrosion resistance and adhesion at high temperatures. Chromate solutions typically include an aqueous solution of hexavalent and / or trivalent chromium and other additives. Historically, octavalent chromium has produced the best performance chromate conversion coatings. However, recent improvements in the 'divalent chromate technology have allowed trivalent chromate to compete with hexavalent chromate in performance. Typical chromate compositions and methods of making the same are disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos. 5,05,07,7,4,9 and 4,3,4,9,9,2, the teachings of which are incorporated herein by for reference. In any case, chromium has been identified as a fairly toxic metal and is strictly regulated. As a result, great efforts have been made to replace chromate paints with chromium-free paints. (3) Summary of the Invention: Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a composition and method capable of generating a conversion coating on a metal surface. The coating can provide excellent corrosion resistance and adhesion to dry organic finishes, and No chromium content. In addition, an object of the present invention is to provide a conversion coating on a metal surface, which conversion coating is rarely affected by subsequent heating and / or baking. Still another object of the present invention is to provide a composition and a method for treating a metal surface, particularly a surface of zinc, a zinc alloy, aluminum, and an aluminum alloy. Invention 槪 沭 These and other objects of the present invention can be achieved by treating metal surfaces with a composition comprising: (1) a source of tungstate ions; and (2) soluble substances containing rhenium; and then dried or baked Bake these metal surfaces. The invention is particularly suitable for treating the surfaces of zinc and zinc alloys as well as the surfaces of aluminum and aluminum alloys 200303934. The inventors have found that it is preferable to treat the composition to between 2.0 and 7.0. The treatment composition preferably does not contain chromium ions. (4) Embodiments: Detailed description of the invention The inventor herein proposes a composition and a method for treating a metal surface using the inclusions; (1) a tungstate ion source; and ( 2) Soluble substances containing rhenium; and then drying or baking the noodles. Tungstate sources include all tungstates, but most specific tungstates, metatungstates and paratungstates, polytungstates, heteropolytungstates, peroxotungstates, and combinations thereof. It is better to bias or to the source. Suitable sources of tungstate ions include salts such as sodium tungstate, osmium, barium, magnesium, rhenium, hydrogen and ammonium, ammonium metatungstate, sodium metatungstate, tungstic acid, sodium tungstate, potassium tungstate, and tungsten Ammonium tungstates such as ammonium tungstate or potassium are best used in both liquid concentrates. The concentration of tungstate in the composition (about 0.1 g / l to about 10 g / l, preferably about 0.1 g / l to about 10 g / l with a tungsten collar) is about 1.0 g / 1. The composition also includes soluble compounds containing hafnium, and examples of materials that suitably contain zirconium include, but are not limited to, difluorofluorohydrogen dihydrogen, potassium hexafluorozirconate, hafnium sulfate, hafnium carbonate, zirconium acid. Hexafluoro Dihydrogen acid is the most preferred compound containing hafnium. The concentration of the zirconium compound is preferably in the range of about 0.0 1 g / 1 to p. The group of those who are regulated by this group of metals is all orthopolytungstates , Potassium, lithium, calcium, potassium metatungstate of a tungstate. A soluble substance and a processing amount of 11) its range is 1.5 g / 1, and preferably ammonium fluoride pin, zirconium hexanitrate and phosphorus composition It contains 5 2.0 g / l, more preferably 200303934, and preferably about 0.0 5 g / 1 to about 0.5 g / 1. The inventor of the present case determined that it is preferred that the pH of the treatment composition should be maintained at about 2.0 to about 7.0, and more preferably at about 2.8 to 7.0. The inventors of the present case have found that when operating outside the aforementioned range (2.0-7.0), the corrosion protection provided is substantially poor, and the stability of the aqueous solution of the treatment composition outside the preferred range is greater than required Lower. The treatment bath preferably includes ammonium hydroxide as a concentrate and a neutralizing agent for the treatment solution resulting from the concentrate. In order to adjust the pH of the liquid concentrate to a high pH so that the concentrate does not become unstable, ammonium hydroxide is necessary. ® The inventors of this case have also discovered that the agglomeration of aluminum in the treatment composition, when compared with a new forming bath, can increase the bath's ability to produce excellent corrosion resistance. On the panel which has been treated in the old treatment bath, the inventors of the present invention achieved a salt spray resistance of 1,000 hours. For this purpose, a soluble aluminum salt may be added to the treatment composition of the present invention. Soluble aluminum salts that can be used in the present invention include ammonium aluminum chloride, aluminum ammonium sulfate, aluminum nitrate, potassium aluminum sulfate, and aluminum sulfate. If used, the φ aluminum salt should generally be present in the bath at a concentration of 5 to 500 ppm (as aluminum), and a preferred concentration is between 10 and 2 0 ρ p m (as aluminum). Generally, parts treated with the composition of the present invention are cleaned and removed with dirt and other surface contamination. The parts should then be deoxidized in an acidic solution, which can remove surface oxides and then rinse. A suitable acidic solution for wrought alloys is a 50% nitric acid solution, but other acidic solutions can also be used. The parts are then contacted with the tungstic acid pin composition of the present invention for a period of about 30 seconds to about 10 minutes by dipping or spraying. It is preferred to maintain the treatment composition dimension -9-200303934 at a temperature ranging from about 55 ° F to about 180 ° F, most preferably from about 70 ° F to about 120 ° T. The parts are then dried and / or baked prior to painting or other processing. If necessary, ingredients may be added to the treatment composition, including a surfactant, an accelerator, a dye, an organic polymer, a buffer, and a pH adjuster. The following examples further illustrate the present invention. It should be adopted only as an illustration and not to limit the invention for any reason. Example 1: First immerse metal parts in alkaline cleaning solution at 170 ° F for 10 to 15 minutes and rinse them to remove the surface contamination of the metal parts. In this example, the alkaline cleaning solution used by ® is MacDermid TS 40 A. Its concentration is 6 oz / gal, but other alkaline cleaning solutions can also be used. Second, rinse the parts for about 2 minutes. The parts were deoxidized (reacted) in a 50% nitric acid solution at ambient temperature for approximately 1 minute, and then subjected to a second rinse. The part is subjected to the conversion coating of the present invention at a temperature of from room temperature to about 125 ° F for a period of about 2 to 10 minutes. The parts are then rinsed for the final time and dried and / or baked. Finally, the part can be coated or otherwise treated. Table 1 provides several examples of solutions that can be used in the processing bath concentrations of the present invention.

This is done by baking the sample panels for 10 minutes at different temperatures and comparing the results of panels coated with chromate conversion coatings. The results are shown in Table 2. Table 2: For tungstic acid coatings and chromate coatings, compare the effect of heat treatment on the results of the neutral salt spray test temperature, ° c hour before the failure of chromium tungstate coatings chromate coating 15 0 1 6 8 hours < 24 Hours 200 1 4 4 hours < 24 hours 2 5 0 1 4 4 hours < 24 hours 3 0 0 3 1 2 hours < 24 hours 3 5 0 3 1 2 hours < 24 hours At high temperatures, panels treated with the composition of the invention provide much greater corrosion protection than similar panels coated with chromate conversion coatings. Example 3: The panels treated with thorium and tungsten solutions and the panels treated with complexate conversion coatings were tested side by side in accordance with MIL-C-8 1 7 0 6 and MIL-C- 5 5 4 1. For comparison ', a bare aluminum panel was included in the test. Spray or powder coat treated (or bare) panels with a primer and / or paint. Then according to ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) d 3 3 5 9 _87, B (standard test method using adhesive tape to measure adhesion), the treated (or 200303934 bare aluminum) panel is subjected to a 2 mm mesh / tape Tear off test. As expected, bare aluminum panels produced consistent adhesion failures. On the other hand, a panel coated with chromium tungstate provides an adhesion promotion equal to or more than that of a panel coated with chromate. Example 4: Next, a side-by-side test of a panel coated with zirconium tungstate of the present invention and a panel treated with MIL-C. 8 1 7 0 6 / M IL-C-5 3 4 1 chromate was performed for comparison. , Use bare aluminum panels (after heating or baking these panels at high temperature). In this example, the treated (or bare aluminum) panel is heated to a temperature of 150 ° C, 20 ° C, 250 ° C, 300 ° C, and 350 ° C before painting. Over 20 minutes. The treated (or bare aluminum) panels are sprayed with a primer and then painted. Each panel was then subjected to a 2 mm mesh / tape peel test in accordance with ASTM D 3 3 5 9-8 7 B. The results show that the adhesion promotion of the panel treated with chromium tungstate is far more than that of bare aluminum panel or the panel treated with chromate.
