Embodiment 1

[0036] Five solutions were prepared with the ingredients and amounts (in grams) listed in Table 1. The corroded plate was cleaned by using a commercially available alkaline cleaner (CK2010, commercially available from PPG Industries, Inc.) to clean a 3x4 inch bare cold-rolled steel plate (available from ACT Test Panels LLC273 Industrial, Dr. Hillsdale, MI49242), and then Place the plate in the salt spray chamber for 4 hours to prepare. The board was rinsed with deionized water and air dried under ambient conditions, and then the solution was applied.

[0049] Three solutions were prepared with the ingredients and amounts (in grams) listed in Table 3. In each example, the clay was sprinkled into the water with stirring. The Laponite RD-containing material showed increased viscosity after several minutes of incorporation. Within 20 minutes, the solution became transparent and there were no visible particles. The bentonite solution showed a very slight viscosity change after adding water, and the material remained opaque blue-green. The kaolin material did not show any viscosity change after addition. After the various clays were added, the solution was stirred for about 20 minutes, citric acid was added, and the resulting mixture was stirred for about 10 minutes.

[0059] Three solutions containing the same theoretical amount of chloride ion were prepared using the ingredients and amounts (in grams) listed in Table 5. In each case, Laponite RD was added to the water according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Then the citric acid was slowly added while stirring the solution. For Example 3A, hydrochloric acid was then added dropwise with stirring. For Example 3B, sodium chloride was then added with stirring. For Example 3C, ammonium chloride was then added with stirring.

Abstract

Disclosed are methods for removing rust from a ferrous metal-containing surface. These methods include contacting the surface with a composition that includes a carboxylic acid, a synthetic hectorite clay, and water.

Description

Invention field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for removing rust from iron-containing surfaces and the like. Background of the invention [0002] During processing, or just during exposure to the atmosphere, a metal oxide layer, that is, rust, often forms on all or part of the ferrous metal surface, thereby impairing its appearance and / or adaptability for further use. One example is steel, such as low carbon steel used in the manufacture of various products. Therefore, it is often desirable to remove the metal oxide layer. Generally, such removal is accomplished by treating the rusted metal surface with a strong acid such as nitric acid, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid or phosphoric acid. However, these highly acidic, corrosive and violent chemicals are generally undesirable from an environmental and safety perspective. [0003] In some cases, the iron to be processed is positioned in a substantially vertical direction, such as may be the case of large structu...
