Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

(1) (Treatment Liquid for Black Trivalent Chromium Conversion Coating)

(2) The treatment liquid for a black trivalent chromium conversion coating of the present invention is a treatment liquid for conversion coating on the surface of a metal substrate, which contains a trivalent chromium compound, two or more organic acids or organic acid salts, or one or more organic sulfur compounds, and nitrate ions, and contains no cobalt compound. The metal substrate is preferably a zinc plated or zinc-alloy plated material, though not particularly limited.

(3) The type of the trivalent chromium compound is not particularly limited, and a trivalent chromium salt such as chromium nitrate, chromium sulfate, and chromium phosphate may be used. The concentration of chromium in the treatment liquid for a black trivalent chromium conversion coating is not particularly limited, preferably in a range of 0.1 g/L to 100 g/L, more preferably in a range of 1 to 30 g/L.

(4) The two or more organic acids or organic acid salts, which are used as substitute for a cobalt compound to obtain a black appearance, react with a metal substrate of, for example, a zinc plated material, together with other components, so as to form a black conversion coating. Although the two or more organic acids or organic acid salts are not particularly limited, preferably at least one of the organic acids or organic acid salts, more preferably two or more of the organic acids or organic acid salts, are polycarboxylic acids having a molecular weight of 500 or less including an organic acid such as malonic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, malic acid, lactic acid, succinic acid, gluconic acid, glutamic acid, diglycolic acid, ascorbic acid, and oxalic acid, or a salt thereof. In particular, use of malonic acid or a salt of malonic acid, or use of oxalic acid or a salt of oxalic acid, in combination of another organic acid tends to exhibit both of high corrosion resistance and an excellent appearance. Although the concentration of the organic acid ions in the treatment liquid for a black trivalent chromium conversion coating is not particularly limited, the total of the organic acid ions in a range of 0.1 g/L to 100 g/L is preferred, and the total in a range of 1 g/L to 30 g/L is more preferred. With an excessively low concentration of the organic acid ions, a black appearance with lower design effect may be produced. With an excessively high concentration of the organic acid ions, economical disadvantage may be caused with little harmful effects.

(5) The treatment liquid for a black trivalent chromium conversion coating of the present invention may contain a trivalent chromium compound and an organic acid or an organic acid salt, or may contain a thermal reaction product obtained by reacting a trivalent chromium compound with an organic acid or an organic acid salt at a temperature of 50° C. or higher and lower than the boiling point. In Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2008-255407, a method for obtaining the stability and appearance by forming a thermal reaction product from a trivalent chromium compound and an organic acid capable of forming a chelate is disclosed. In the present invention, although the formation of the thermal reaction product from a trivalent chromium compound and an organic acid is not necessarily required for production of a black trivalent chromium conversion coating excellent in the appearance, the corrosion resistance, and the stability of the treatment liquid, the stability may be enhanced by the formation of the thermal reaction product from a trivalent chromium compound and an organic acid.

(6) The one or more organic sulfur compounds used as the substitute for a cobalt compound to obtain a black appearance react with a metal substrate of, for example, zinc plated material, together with other components, so as to form a black conversion coating. At least one, preferably two or more of the organic sulfur compounds are used, though the type of the compound is not particularly limited. Preferred examples thereof include a mercapto compound, a disulphide compound, thioureas, a sulphur-containing amino acid, and a salt thereof. Although the appearance with high-quality design, the highly practicable corrosion resistance, and the stability of a treatment liquid can be obtained even with use of a single compound, addition of two compounds or more allows the stability of the treatment liquid when left standing for a long term to be improved. Among them, preferred examples of the mercapto compound include thioglycolic acid, thiodiglycolic acid, thiomalic acid, thioacetic acid, dithioacetic acid, and thiopropionic acid. Preferred examples of the disulfide compound include dithiodiglycolic acid. Preferred examples of the sulfur-containing amino acid include cysteine and a salt thereof. Although the concentration of organic sulfur compounds in the treatment liquid for a black trivalent chromium conversion coating is not particularly limited, the total of sulfur content in a range of 0.01 g/L to 10 g/L is preferred, and the total in a range of 0.05 g/L to 5 g/L is more preferred. With an excessively small amount of organic sulfur compounds, the design effect in the black appearance may be lowered. With an excessively large amount, economical disadvantage may be caused with little harmful effects.

(7) Nitrate ions are provided in the form of nitric acid or a metal salt such as sodium or potassium nitrate. The nitrate ions function as a film-forming component to form a uniform conversion coating having a certain degree of thickness. The concentration in a treatment liquid for a black trivalent chromium conversion coating is not particularly limited, and the concentration of the total of nitrate ions is preferably in the range of 0.1 to 100 g/L, more preferably 1 to 30 g/L.

(8) According to the present invention, an appearance with high-quality design, and excellent corrosion resistance and scratch resistance can be obtained without using a cobalt compound, and the addition of one or more compounds of transition metals other than cobalt further improves the scratch resistance. In comparison with the case of using a cobalt compound, higher stability also can be achieved without precipitation in the treatment liquid. Examples of the transition metal compound include a salt of nickel, vanadium, cerium, manganese, or molybdenum. The concentration of each metal ion in the treatment liquid for a black trivalent chromium conversion coating is not particularly limited, preferably 0.1 to 100 g/L, more preferably 0.1 to 10 g/L.

(9) In the present invention, although the appearance with high-quality design and the excellent corrosion resistance and scratch resistance can be obtained without using a phosphorus compound described in prior literature, the addition of a phosphorus compound may further improve the scratch resistance.

(10) When a metal substrate such as a zinc plated or zinc alloy plated material is immersed in a treatment liquid for a black trivalent chromium conversion coating so as to form a black trivalent chromium conversion coating, the treatment temperature, the pH, and the treatment time in the conversion coating treatment are not particularly limited, and preferably the treatment is performed at a treatment temperature of 20 to 50° C., at a pH of 1.0 to 3.0, in a treatment time of 20 to 90 seconds. With an excessively high temperature, an excessive amount of metal substrate is dissolved. With an excessively low temperature, the quality of black appearance may be lowered due to reduction in reactivity. With a higher pH, an insufficient amount of black coating may be formed due to the lack of etching. With a shorter treatment time, a sufficient amount of black coating is not formed. With a treatment time of 90 seconds or more, the productivity may be lowered without enough effects.

(11) (Trivalent Chromium-Containing Water-Soluble Liquid for Finishing Treatment)

(12) The trivalent chromium-containing water-soluble liquid for finishing treatment of the present invention is a liquid for finishing treatment of the surface of a black trivalent chromium conversion coating including a trivalent chromium compound and no cobalt compound, formed on a metal substrate such as a zinc plated or zinc-alloy plated material, which contains a trivalent chromium compound, phosphorus oxoacid ions, one or more compounds of transition metals excluding cobalt, and a silicone oil or one or more fluorine-based compounds or resins, and contains no cobalt compound.

(13) Conventionally, a trivalent chromium-containing water-soluble liquid for finishing treatment for improving the appearance, the corrosion resistance, and the scratch resistance of a black trivalent chromium conversion coating has contained a cobalt compound for improvement of the corrosion resistance and the scratch resistance. Use of a compound of at least one transition metal other than cobalt instead of the cobalt compound allows the corrosion resistance and the scratch resistance to be improved.

(14) As a trivalent chromium compound, chromium phosphate may be used as a source for supplying trivalent chromium and a source for supplying oxoacid ions of phosphorus. The concentration of chromium in a trivalent chromium-containing water-soluble liquid for finishing treatment is not particularly limited, preferably in the range of 0.1 to 50 g/L, more preferably 1 to 10 g/L. The concentration of oxoacid ions of phosphorus in a trivalent chromium-containing water-soluble liquid for finishing treatment is also not particularly limited, preferably in the range of 0.1 to 50 g/L, more preferably 1 to 10 g/L.

(15) Instead of a cobalt compound, at least one transition metal compound is added to the trivalent chromium-containing water-soluble liquid for finishing treatment of the present invention, so that the black appearance with high-quality design, the corrosion resistance and the scratch resistance can be obtained. Examples of the transition metal compound for use include a salt of nickel, vanadium, cerium, manganese, or molybdenum. The concentration of each metal ion in the trivalent chromium-containing water-soluble liquid for finishing treatment is not particularly limited, preferably 0.1 to 100 g/L, more preferably 0.1 to 10 g/L.

(16) Further, a silicone oil or a fluorine-containing compound or a fluorine-containing resin may be added to the trivalent chromium-containing water-soluble liquid for finishing treatment. The liquid for finishing treatment mixed with a silicone oil or a fluorine-containing compound or a fluorine-containing resin allows the finish coating to be coated therewith. Consequently, a water-repelling function is exhibited to improve the corrosion resistance. The concentration of silicon or fluorine in a trivalent chromium-containing water-soluble liquid for finishing treatment is not particularly limited, preferably in the range of 0.05 to 5 g/L.

(17) When the black trivalent chromium conversion coating formed on a metal substrate is further subjected to the finishing treatment, the treatment temperature, the pH, and the treatment time of the finishing treatment are not particularly limited, and preferably the treatment is performed at a treatment temperature of 20 to 50° C., at a pH of 3.0 to 6.5, in a treatment time of 5 to 60 seconds. With an excessively high temperature, the black trivalent chromium conversion coating is dissolved. With an excessively low temperature, the quality of black appearance may be lowered due to reduction in fixation. With a lower pH, the black trivalent chromium conversion coating is dissolved. With a higher pH, the quality of the black appearance may be lowered due to reduction in the stability of the liquid for finishing treatment. With a shorter treatment time, a sufficient amount of finish coating is not formed. With a treatment time of 60 seconds or more, the productivity may be lowered without enough effects.

(18) (Treatment Method of Metal Substrate)

(19) The treatment method of a metal substrate of the present invention includes the successive steps of: immersing a metal substrate made of zinc plated or zinc-alloy plated material or the like in the treatment liquid for a black trivalent chromium conversion coating so as to form the black trivalent chromium conversion coating on the surface of the metal substrate; and immersing the metal substrate in the trivalent chromium-containing water-soluble liquid for finishing treatment so as to form a trivalent chromium-containing finish coating on the surface of the black trivalent chromium conversion coating. The treatment method allows the coating of a metal substrate which has excellent corrosion resistance and scratch resistance and no cobalt compound to be formed using a treatment liquid having high stability, while considering environmental issues.

EXAMPLES

(20) The present invention is further described in detail in the following with reference to Examples of the present invention. The present invention is, however, not limited to the Examples listed below.

(21) In the following, the present invention is described with reference to Examples mainly for zinc plating on which the present invention has the most significant effects. In a testing, a specimen was first subjected to an appropriate pretreatment such as degreasing and immersing in acid. Zinc plating (HYPERZINC, manufactured by Nippon Hyomen Kagaku K.K.) was applied to the pretreated specimen, which was then immersed in nitric acid with a low concentration as an appropriate treatment. Subsequently the specimen was subjected to a treatment with a treatment liquid for a black trivalent chromium conversion coating and a treatment with a trivalent chromium-containing water-soluble liquid for finishing treatment of the present invention in this order. The pH adjustment of each treatment liquid was performed using nitric acid and sodium hydroxide.

(22) The film thickness of the plating was controlled at 8 to 10 μm. The evaluation of corrosion resistance was performed based on a salt spray testing in accordance with JIS Z 2371. The evaluation of scratch resistance was performed based on a salt spray testing in accordance with JIS Z 2371 for the specimens scratched in an X-shape with a cutter knife after the treatment. The corrosion resistance and the scratch resistance in the salt spray testing were confirmed using 5 or 10 pieces of the specimens for each condition. On this occasion, the state at a specified time was evaluated as follows: “circle: no occurrence of corrosion in all the specimens”, “triangle: occurrence of corrosion in a part of the specimens”, and “X-mark: occurrence of corrosion in all the specimens”.

(23) Further, the stability of each treatment liquid was evaluated by confirming the occurrence of precipitation or turbidity in the liquid left standing after the treatment. The evaluation criteria are as follows: “circle: transparent, with no precipitation and no turbidity”, “triangle: occurrence of turbidity” “X-mark: occurrence of precipitation”, and “-: no evaluation due to occurrence of precipitation at an elapsed time of 240 hours”.

Example 1

(24) A zinc-plated iron plate (surface area: 1 dm.sup.2) was immersed in a treatment liquid for a black trivalent chromium conversion coating, which contains 15 g/L of chromium nitrate, 1 g/L of malonic acid and 5 g/L of citric acid as organic acids, 5 g/L of thioglycolic acid as organic sulfur compound, and sodium nitrate including 20 g/L of nitric radicals, conditioned at a temperature of 30° C. and a pH of 2.0, for 30 seconds, and rinsed with water. Subsequently the iron plate was immersed in a trivalent chromium-containing water-soluble liquid for finishing treatment, which contains 20 g/L of chromium (III) nitrate, 1 g/L of ammonium vanadate, 5 g/L of malonic acid, and 0.10 g/L of a silicon oil, DK Q1-1247 manufactured by Dow Corning Toray Co., Ltd., controlled to a temperature of 30° C. and a pH of 4.0, for 10 seconds. Subsequently the specimen unwashed with water was dried, and the corrosion resistance, the scratch resistance, and the appearance thereof were evaluated. Further, the stability of the treatment liquid for a black trivalent chromium conversion coating after left standing at room temperature was evaluated by performing the testing for the second time at that point for evaluation of the corrosion resistance, the scratch resistance, and the appearance.
