Problems solved by technology

[0006] The problem with current zirconia conversion coating processes is that in certain environments and on certain substrates they do not provide as good corrosion protection as conventional zinc phosphate methods
[0007] A particular problem is that existing methods of zirconia conversion coatings for zinc-containing substrates, especially HDG and EG, do not provide coated metal objects that meet certain automotive test requirements

Embodiment 1

[0083] Test methods include:

[0084] Method 1 Bonderite 958 (commercially available zinc phosphate: control)

[0085] Method 2 TD-1323-HB / HC standard method (control)

[0086] Method 3 Alkaline Co / Fe pre-cleaner + TD-1323-HB / HC

[0087] Method 4 Fe-containing cleaner + TD-1323-HB / HC

[0088] Method 5 Contains Co / Fe detergent + TD-1323-HB / HC

[0089] *TD-1323-HB / HC is a commercially available zirconia pretreatment bath.

[0090] Standard (12"x4") test panels were obtained from ACT Laboratories, Hillsdale, Michigan USA; cold rolled steel (CRS), electrogalvanized steel (EG), aluminum 6111 (AL6111), hot dip galvanized steel (HDG). Samples of each of the four substrates were processed according to one of the following methods. The method steps used to test the pre-cleaner are as follows:

[0091] Method 1 (control) Bonderite 958

[0092] 1. Parco Cleaner 1533 – 120 seconds (spray)

[0093] 2. Wash with warm water - 30 seconds (spray)

[0094] 3. Fixodine Z8-30 seconds (...

Embodiment 2

[0122] Several proposed alkaline pre-cleaner formulations were tested. The concentrate formulation is shown in Table 3 below.

[0123] table 3

[0124]

[0125] Formulations 1A, 2A, 4A, and 5A used Co and Fe, and Formulations 3A and 6A used Fe only. Formulations 4A-6A used added silicate and Formulations 1A-6A contained no phosphate. Formulations 1A and 2A were similar to Formulations 4A and 5A, but with different levels of complexing agent.

[0126] Standard (12"x4") test panels were obtained from ACT Laboratories, Hillsdale, Michigan USA; cold rolled steel (CRS), electrogalvanized steel (EG), aluminum 6111 (AL6111), hot dip galvanized steel (HDG). The method steps are summarized in Table 5 below. For each concentration and time in Table 4, three panels of each of the four substrates were processed.
