EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

[0026] A surface-treated steel according to an embodiment of the present invention (surface-treated steel according to the present embodiment) is described.

[0027] As illustrated in FIG. 1, a surface-treated steel 1 according to the present embodiment includes a steel 11, a plated layer 12 containing Zn or a Zn alloy formed on a surface of the steel 11, and a chemical conversion coating film 13 formed on a surface of the plated layer 12. In FIG. 1, the plated layer 12 and the chemical conversion coating film 13 are formed only on one surface of the steel 11, but may be formed on both surfaces.

[0028] In the surface-treated steel 1 according to the present embodiment, the chemical conversion coating film 13 contains an organosilicon compound having a siloxane bond, and P and F, and when the abundance ratio of an alkylene group and a siloxane bond in the organosilicon compound is measured by FT-IR, the ratio A1/A2 of the peak value A1 of the absorbance at 2,800 to 3,000 cm.sup.?1 indicating the alkylene group to the peak value A2 of the absorbance at 1,030 to 1,200 cm.sup.?1 indicating the siloxane bond is 0.10 to 0.75.

[0029] Further, preferably, in the surface-treated steel 1 according to the present embodiment, when the abundance ratio of a phosphate group in the chemical conversion coating film 13 and a siloxane bond in the organosilicon compound is measured by FT-IR, the ratio A3/A2 of the absorbance A3 of the phosphate group at 1,200 cm.sup.?1 to the peak value A2 of the absorbance at 1,030 to 1.200 cm.sup.?1 indicating the siloxane bond is 0.43 to 1.00.

[0030] Hereinafter, the steel 11, the plated layer 12, and the coating film 13 are described.

<Steel>

[0031] In the surface-treated steel 1 according to the present embodiment, excellent corrosion resistance can be obtained by the plated layer 12 and the coating film 13. Therefore, the steel 11 is not particularly limited. The steel 11 may be determined by an applied product, required strength, sheet thickness, and the like, and for example, a hot-rolled steel sheet described in JIS G 3193: 2019, JIS G 3131: 2018 or JIS G 3113: 2018, or a cold-rolled steel sheet described in JIS G 3141: 2021 or JIS G 3135: 2018 may be used.

<Plated Layer>

[0032] The chemical composition of the plated layer 12 is not limited as long as it is a plated layer (zinc-plated layer) containing Zn or a Zn alloy in an amount of 40 mass % or more. For example, plating specified in JIS G 3313: 2021, JIS G 3302: 2019, JIS G 3323: 2019, JIS G 3317: 2019, or JIS G 3321: 2019 may be applied.

[0033] The adhesion amount of the plated layer 12 is not limited, but is preferably 10 g/m.sup.2 or more per one surface for improving corrosion resistance. On the other hand, even when the adhesion amount per one surface exceeds 200 g/m.sup.2, corrosion resistance is saturated and it is economically disadvantageous. Therefore, the adhesion amount is preferably 200 g/m.sup.2 or less.

[0034] The type of the plated layer is also not limited. For example, the plated layer may be a hot-dip plated layer or an electroplated layer.

<Coating Film>

[Containing an Organosilicon Compound Having a Siloxane Bond, and P and F]

[0035] The chemical conversion coating film 13 included in the surface-treated steel 1 according to the present embodiment is obtained by applying a treatment solution (chemical treatment solution) containing a silane coupling agent, a phosphate compound, and a fluorine compound onto a plated layer containing zinc or a zinc alloy under predetermined conditions and performing drying. Therefore, the chemical conversion coating film 13 included in the surface-treated steel 1 according to the present embodiment contains a silicon compound having a siloxane bond (SiOSi bond: including a cyclic siloxane bond and a chain siloxane bond) derived from the silane coupling agent as a film-forming component, and contains P and F as inhibitor components. P and F are considered to exist as inhibitors in a state of a phosphate compound and a fluorine compound.

[0036] When the silicon compound is a film-forming component, the average Si concentration of the chemical conversion coating film is, for example, 10 mass % or more. If necessary, the chemical conversion coating film 13 may contain Zr or V derived from a Zr compound or a V compound.

[0037] The chemical conversion coating film 13 included in the surface-treated steel 1 according to the present embodiment does not substantially contain an organic resin.

[0038] Whether or not the chemical conversion coating film contains P and F is determined by a method of confirming the presence or absence of P and F in the surface-treated steel with an X-ray fluorescence spectrometer. When other elements such as Zr and V are contained, the analysis can be similarly performed. When the detection intensity of each element is three times or more the detection intensity measured using a plated steel having no coating film, it is determined that the element is contained in the coating film.

[0039] Whether or not the chemical conversion coating film has an organosilicon compound having a siloxane bond can be determined by FT-IR described later.

[0040] [When the abundance ratio of an alkylene group and a siloxane bond in the organosilicon compound is measured by FT-IR, the ratio A1/A2 of the peak value A1 of the absorbance at 2,800 to 3,000 cm.sup.?1 indicating the alkylene group to the peak value A2 of the absorbance at 1,030 to 1,200 cm.sup.?1 indicating the siloxane bond is 0.10 to 0.75.]

[0041] When the chemical conversion coating film contains an organosilicon compound having a siloxane bond as a film-forming component and contains P (phosphate compound) and F (fluorine compound) as inhibitor components, the barrier property of the chemical conversion coating film is improved and corrosion resistance is improved by controlling the abundance ratio of an alkylene group and a siloxane bond in the organosilicon compound.

[0042] Specifically, when the ratio A1/A2 of the peak value A1 of the absorbance at 2,800 to 3,000 cm.sup.?1 indicating the alkylene group to the peak value A2 of the absorbance at 1,030 to 1,200 cm.sup.?1 indicating the siloxane bond, as measured by FT-IR, is 0.10 to 0.75, the barrier property of the chemical conversion coating film is improved and corrosion resistance is improved.

[0043] When the ratio A1/A2 is more than 0.75, that is, when the proportion of the alkylene group in the organosilicon compound is large, an organic substance remains in the SiOx skeleton, so that corrosion resistance is deteriorated because corrosion factors such as moisture and chloride ions easily permeate through the organic substance. The ratio A1/A2 is preferably 0.60 or less, more preferably 0.55 or less, and still more preferably 0.50 or less.

[0044] On the other hand, when the ratio A1/A2 is less than 0.10, that is, when the proportion of the siloxane bond is large, cracking occurs in the chemical conversion coating film, and corrosion resistance is deteriorated. The ratio A1/A2 is preferably 0.15 or more, and more preferably 0.20 or more.

[0045] [Preferably, when the abundance ratio of the phosphate group in the chemical conversion coating film and the siloxane bond in the organosilicon compound is measured by FT-IR, the ratio A3/A2 of the absorbance A3 of the phosphate group at 1,200 cm.sup.?1 to the peak value A2 of the absorbance at 1,030 to 1,200 cm.sup.?1 indicating the siloxane bond is 0.43 to 1.00.]

[0046] In the chemical conversion coating film 13 of the surface-treated steel 1 according to the present embodiment mainly including a SiOx skeleton having a cyclic siloxane bond or a chain siloxane bond and including P such as a phosphate compound and F such as a fluorine compound as inhibitor components, the inhibitor effect is improved by controlling the abundance ratio of the phosphate group in the chemical conversion coating film and the siloxane bond in the organosilicon compound.

[0047] Specifically, when the ratio A3/A2 of the absorbance A3 of the phosphate group at 1,200 cm.sup.?1 to the peak value A2 of the absorbance at 1,030 to 1,200 cm.sup.?1 indicating the siloxane bond, as measured by FT-IR, is 0.43 to 1.00, an excellent inhibitor effect is obtained and corrosion resistance is further improved.

[0048] When the ratio A3/A2 is less than 0.43, the amount of the phosphate compound that becomes an inhibitor is small, so that a sufficient effect cannot be obtained. The ratio A3/A2 is more preferably 0.45 or more, and still more preferably 0.50 or more.

[0049] On the other hand, when the ratio A3/A2 exceeds 1.00, the barrier property of the coating film is deteriorated, and corrosion resistance is deteriorated. The ratio A3/A2 is more preferably 0.80 or less, and still more preferably 0.60 or less.

[0050] The ratio A1/A2 and the ratio A3/A2 can be obtained by measuring the absorbance of a specific peak in a range corresponding to each of an alkylene group, a siloxane bond, and a phosphate group as described above using a general FT-IR apparatus, obtaining A1, A2, and A3, and then taking the ratio thereof.

[0051] In the measurement, specifically, the absorbance at a wavenumber of 800 to 4,000 cm.sup.?1 is measured, and calculation is performed from the value of each absorbance. In the baseline correction at the time of obtaining the absorbance, the absorbance at 4,000 cm.sup.?1, 2,400 cm.sup.?1, 2,100 cm.sup.?1, and 850 cm.sup.?1 in the wavenumber of 800 to 4,000 cm.sup.?1 is corrected to be 0. In FT-IR, measurement conditions are, for example, as follows.

[0052] Measurement method: diffuse reflection method or ATR method [0053] Resolution: 4 cm.sup.?1 [0054] Number of scans: 128 times [0055] Measurement atmosphere: the air

[0056] The adhesion amount of the chemical conversion coating film 13 is preferably 100 to 2,000 mg/m.sup.2. When the adhesion amount is less than 100 mg/m.sup.2, a sufficient effect may not be obtained. On the other hand, when the adhesion amount is more than 2.000 mg/m.sup.2, the film thickness becomes too thick, and the coating film may be peeled off.

<Manufacturing Method>

[0057] Next, a preferred method for manufacturing the surface-treated steel according to the present embodiment is described.

[0058] The surface-treated steel according to the present embodiment can obtain the effect as long as it has the above characteristics regardless of the manufacturing method, but the following manufacturing method is preferable because it can be stably manufactured.

[0059] That is, the surface-treated steel according to the present embodiment can be manufactured by a manufacturing method including the following steps: [0060] (I) a plating step of forming a plated layer containing Zn or a Zn alloy on a surface of a steel such as a steel sheet; [0061] (II) an application step of applying a chemical treatment solution to the steel having the plated layer; and [0062] (III) a drying and cooling step of drying the steel to which the chemical treatment solution has been applied, by heating, and then performing air cooling to form a chemical conversion coating film.

[0063] Preferred conditions for each step are described.

[Plating Step]

[0064] In the plating step, a steel such as a steel sheet is immersed in a plating bath containing Zn or a Zn alloy, or electroplating is performed to form a plated layer on the surface. The formation of the plated layer is not particularly limited. The plating may be performed by a normal method so that sufficient plating adhesion can be obtained.

[0065] Further, the steel sheet to be subjected to the plating step and the method for manufacturing the steel sheet are not limited. As the steel sheet to be immersed in the plating bath, for example, a hot-rolled steel sheet described in JIS G 3193: 2019 or JIS G 3113: 2018 or a cold-rolled steel sheet described in JIS G 3141: 2021 or JIS G 3135: 2018 can be used.

[0066] The composition of the plating bath may be adjusted according to the chemical composition of the plated layer to be obtained.

[0067] After the steel is pulled up from the plating bath, the adhesion amount of the plated layer can be adjusted by wiping as necessary.

[Application Step]

[0068] In the application step, a chemical treatment solution (surface treatment metal agent) containing a silane coupling agent, a phosphate compound, and a fluorine compound is applied to a steel having a plated layer containing Zn or a Zn alloy.

[0069] In the application step, the method for applying the surface treatment metal agent is not limited. For example, the surface treatment metal agent can be applied using a roll coater, a bar coater, a spray, or the like.

[0070] The silane coupling agent is contained as a film-forming component. As the silane coupling agent, for example, a Si compound obtained by blending a silane coupling agent (X) containing one amino group in the molecule and a silane coupling agent (Y) containing one glycidyl group in the molecule at a solid content concentration ratio (X)/(Y) of 0.5 to 1.7 may also be used.

[0071] Examples of the fluorine compound contained in the chemical treatment solution include compounds such as hydrofluoric acid HF, fluoroboric acid BF.sub.4H, fluorosilicic acid H.sub.2SiF.sub.6, hexafluorozirconic acid H.sub.2ZrF.sub.6, and titanium hydrofluoric acid H.sub.2TiF.sub.6. The compound may be one type or a combination of two or more types. Among them, hydrofluoric acid is more preferable. When hydrofluoric acid is used, more excellent corrosion resistance and coating properties can be obtained.

[0072] The phosphate compound contained in the chemical treatment solution remains as Pas an inhibitor component in the chemical conversion coating film. The corrosion resistance of the chemical conversion coating film is improved by P as the inhibitor component.

[0073] In the present embodiment, the phosphate compound contained in the chemical treatment solution is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include phosphoric acid, ammonium phosphate, potassium phosphate, and sodium phosphate. Among them, phosphoric acid is more preferable. When phosphoric acid is used, more excellent corrosion resistance can be obtained.

[0074] When the chemical treatment solution contains a Zr compound, examples of the Zr compound include ammonium zirconium carbonate, hexafluorozirconic acid, and ammonium hexafluorozirconate.

[0075] When the chemical treatment solution contains a V compound, examples of the V compound include vanadium pentoxide V.sub.2O.sub.5, metavanadic acid HVO.sub.3, ammonium metavanadate, sodium metavanadate, vanadium oxytrichloride VOCl.sub.3, vanadium trioxide V.sub.2O.sub.3, vanadium dioxide VO.sub.2, vanadium oxysulfate VOSO.sub.4, vanadium oxyacetylacetonate VO(OC(?CH.sub.2) CH.sub.2COCH.sub.3).sub.2, vanadium acetylacetonate V(OC(?CH.sub.2)CH.sub.2COCH.sub.3).sub.3, vanadium trichloride VCl.sub.3, and phosphovanadomolybdic acid. It is also possible to use compounds obtained by reducing a pentavalent vanadium compound to tetravalence to divalence with an organic compound having at least one functional group selected from the group consisting of a hydroxyl group, a carbonyl group, carboxylic acid, a primary to tertiary amino group, an amide group, a phosphate group, and a phosphonic acid group.

[Drying and Cooling Step]

[0076] In the drying and cooling step, the steel to which the chemical treatment solution has been applied is dried and baked by heating. After drying, the steel is cooled to room temperature (for example, 20? C.) by air cooling. As a result, a chemical conversion coating film is formed on the surface of the plated layer.

[0077] In the case of obtaining the surface-treated steel according to the present embodiment, the peak metal temperature (PMT) (maximum attainment temperature of steel) is set to 155 to 200? C. in the drying and cooling step.

[0078] FIG. 2 is a graph showing an analysis result of an ATR method of FT-IR, and CH.sub.2 in FIG. 2 represents an alkylene group and SiO represents a siloxane bond. FIG. 3 is an enlarged graph of a range of a wavenumber of 1,100 to 1,250 cm.sup.?1 in FIG. 2.

[0079] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, when the PMT increases, the peak value A2 of the absorbance at 1,030 to 1,200 cm.sup.?1 indicating the siloxane bond does not change significantly, whereas the peak value A1 of the absorbance at 2.800 to 3,000 cm.sup.?1 indicating the alkylene group decreases, and the ratio A1/A2 decreases. In order to set the ratio A1/A2 to be in a range of 0.10 to 0.75, the PMT is set to 155 to 200? C.

[0080] The heating method is not limited. For example, drying can be performed by heating using IH, a hot blast furnace, or the like. In order to efficiently dry the chemical treatment solution to reduce the ratio A1/A2, it is preferable to use a hot blast furnace, and it is more preferable to blow hot blast to the steel through a punching metal (steel sheet having a plurality of through-holes). By the above method, the flow of hot blast on the surface of the steel becomes complicated, so that the ratio A1/A2 can be efficiently reduced.

[0081] At the time of heating, the average temperature rising rate is preferably 4 to 40? C./sec from the viewpoint of productivity and the like.

[0082] After the chemical conversion coating film is dried, the surface-treated steel is cooled to room temperature by blowing air (air cooling). By blowing air to the steel having latent heat in the cooling process after drying (after reaching the PMT), the ratio A1/A2 can be efficiently reduced. The air blown at that time is more preferably blown to the steel through a punching metal, similarly to the hot blast in the drying step.

[0083] When cooling after drying is performed by water cooling, the amount of heat for forming the SiOx skeleton cannot be obtained, and an alkylene compound remains in the coating film. As a result, the abundance ratio of the alkylene group increases, and the target corrosion resistance (initial white rust resistance) cannot be obtained.

[0084] In addition, when water cooling is performed, the inhibitor component is eluted in cooling water. Therefore, in the case of controlling the ratio A3/A2, it is preferable to suppress elution of the inhibitor component by controlling the content of the phosphate compound, and performing cooling after drying by air cooling. When the ratio A3/A2 is controlled, it is preferable that the PMT is set to 160? C. or higher and then the cooling after drying is performed by air cooling.

EXAMPLES

[0085] Plated steel sheets (metal sheets Nos. 1 to 8) having plating having a plated layer composition shown in Table 1 were prepared. The adhesion amount of the plated layer was 70 g/m.sup.2. The metal sheet No. 1 was prepared by electroplating, and the metal sheets Nos. 2 to 8 were prepared by hot-dip plating. In Table 1, for example. Zn-0.2% A1 indicates a composition containing 0.2 mass % of A1 and the remainder of Zn and impurities. Zn-6% Al-3% Mg indicates a composition containing 6 mass % of Al, 3 mass % of Mg, and the remainder of Zn and impurities, and the same applies to the others.

[0086] As a substrate of the plated steel sheet, a cold-rolled steel sheet satisfying JIS G 3141: 2021 was used.

[0087] A chemical treatment solution containing: a Si compound obtained by blending at a blending ratio (X/Y) between a silane coupling agent (X) and a silane coupling agent (Y) of 1.0 in terms of the solid content mass ratio; phosphoric acid obtained by blending at a ratio (P/S) between a solid content mass (P) of P derived from phosphoric acid and a solid content mass (Si) of Si derived from a Si compound of 0.2; fluorine-hydrogen acid obtained by blending at a ratio (F/S) between a solid content mass (F) of F derived from fluorine-hydrogen acid and the solid content mass of Si derived from a Si compound of 0.075; and vanadium oxysulfate obtained by blending at a ratio (V/Si) between a solid content mass (V) of V derived from vanadium oxysulfate and a solid content mass of Si derived from a Si compound of 0.075 was applied to the plated steel sheet. The chemical treatment solution was applied with a roll coater.

[0088] After the chemical treatment solution was applied, hot blast was blown onto the steel sheet through a punching metal (steel sheet having a plurality of through-holes) to heat the steel sheet to the peak metal temperature (PMT) in Table 2A at a temperature rising rate of 4 to 10? C./sec, and then the steel sheet was cooled to 20? C. by air cooling by blowing air through a punching metal or water cooling. As a result, surface-treated steels Nos. 1 to 21 were obtained. In addition, hot air was blown to the steel sheet without using a punching metal to heat the steel sheet to the peak metal temperature in Table 2A at a temperature rising rate of 8? C./sec, and then air was blown to the steel sheet to air-cool the steel sheet to 20? C. without using a punching metal to obtain surface-treated steels of Nos. 22 and 23.

[0089] In addition, a polyurethane resin was allowed to be contained in a treatment solution in which the blending ratio (A)/(B) of 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (A1) as a silane coupling agent (A) containing one amino group to 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane as a silane coupling agent (B) containing one glycidyl group in the molecule was 0.5 in terms of the solid content mass ratio, and other compositions were the same as those described above, thereby obtaining a No. 24 surface-treated steel having a coating film containing a polyurethane resin in a weight 0.25 times the weigh of the coating film of No. 2.

[0090] For the obtained surface-treated steels, whether or not the chemical conversion coating film contained an organosilicon compound having a siloxane bond and P and F was confirmed by the above-described method. As a result, in any example, the chemical conversion coating film contained an organosilicon compound having a siloxane bond and P and F.

[0091] Further, the ratio A1/A2 and the ratio A3/A2 of the obtained surface-treated steels were measured in the same manner as described above using an ATR method of FT-IR.

[0106] The center portion of a rectangular test piece (flat sheet) of 70 mm?150 mm was subjected to an Erichsen test (7 mm extrusion), then a salt spray test in accordance with JIS Z 2371: 2015 was performed for 72 hours, and the state of rust generation of the extruded portion was observed. Evaluation was performed using the same evaluation criteria as in the corrosion resistance of flat portion, and a case where the evaluation result was S, AA, A, and B was determined to have sufficient corrosion resistance.

(Evaluation Criteria for Corrosion Resistance)

[0107] S: 1% or less [0108] AA: more than 1% and 3% or less [0109] A: more than 3% and 5% or less [0110] B: more than 5% and 10% or less [0111] C: more than 10%

<Conductivity>

[0112] Using the method A of JIS C 2550-4: 2011, the interlayer resistance coefficient was measured under the condition that the total area of ten contact electrodes was 1,000 mm.sup.2.

[0113] A case where the evaluation result was A or more was determined to have sufficient conductivity.

(Evaluation Criteria for Conductivity)

[0114] A: interlayer resistance coefficient is less than 300 ?.Math.mm.sup.2 [0115] B: interlayer resistance coefficient is 300 ?.Math.mm.sup.2 or more

[0116] As can be seen from Tables 1, 2A, and 2B, in Nos. 1 to 11 as the present invention examples, the chemical conversion coating film contained an organosilicon compound having a siloxane bond, a phosphate compound, and a fluorine compound, and the ratio A1/A2 was 0.10 to 0.75. As a result, not only corrosion resistance of flat portion (corrosion resistance of flat portion I) after the SST test for 190 hours, but also corrosion resistance of flat portion (corrosion resistance of flat portion II) after the test for 240 hours was excellent. In addition, corrosion resistance of worked portion was also excellent.

[0117] In particular, in Nos. 1 to 3 and 8 to 11 in which the ratio A3/A2 was 0.43 to 1.00, corrosion resistance of flat portion II was more excellent.

[0118] On the other hand, in Nos. 12 and 14 to 17, the peak metal temperature (PMT) was low, and sufficient thermal energy was not obtained, so that the ratio A1/A2 was high. As a result, corrosion resistance of flat portion II and corrosion resistance of worked portion were deteriorated.

[0119] In Nos. 13, 19, and 20, water cooling was performed after the formation of the plated layer, and thus the sheet temperature rapidly decreased. Therefore, sufficient thermal energy was not obtained, and thus the ratio A1/A2 was high. As a result, corrosion resistance of flat portion II and corrosion resistance of worked portion were deteriorated.

[0120] In No. 18, the peak metal temperature was low and water cooling was performed after the formation of the plated layer, and thus the ratio A1/A2 was high. As a result, corrosion resistance of flat portion II and corrosion resistance of worked portion were deteriorated.

[0121] In No. 21, the peak metal temperature (PMT) was high, and the ratio A1/A3 was excessively low. As a result, corrosion resistance was deteriorated.

[0122] In Nos. 22 and 23, heating (temperature increase) and air cooling were performed without using a punching metal, and thus the ratio A1/A2 was high. As a result, corrosion resistance of flat portion II and corrosion resistance of worked portion were deteriorated.

[0123] In No. 24, the chemical conversion coating film contained a resin component, and the ratio A1/A2 was also out of the scope of the invention. As a result, conductivity was poor.
