Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of phosphating, and particularly relates to a steel polishing and phosphating integrated electrolyte as well as a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Although the traditional immersion phosphating process performs excellently in the field of metal corrosion prevention, it has significant defects. The bath solution contains harmful substances such as chromate and nitrite, and heavy metal ions such as zinc, nickel and manganese. The treatment temperature is high, and it needs to be operated at 80 DEG C. A large amount of waste slag containing heavy metals and phosphorus is generated, and the disposal cost of hazardous waste is high. CN106756926A discloses an environmentally friendly immersion phosphating solution. By using zinc salt and manganese salt as main salt, combined with corrosion inhibitors such as citric acid and sodium tripolyphosphate, low-temperature phosphating is realized at 50-75 DEG C. Although the use of chromate and nitrite is avoided, heating is still required and heavy metal ions such as zinc and manganese are still needed. In addition, hazardous waste such as phosphating slag is also generated.
[0003] In contrast, electrolytic phosphating generates a dense phosphating film through cathodic reduction reaction and does not produce phosphating slag. CN118497864A discloses a room temperature ultrasonic electrolytic phosphating solution formula. Through the synergistic effect of phosphoric acid, zinc oxide, nitrate and chelating agent, efficient phosphating without heating is realized under ultrasonic assistance, which significantly reduces energy consumption and eliminates waste slag discharge.
[0004] Traditional chemical polishing relies on the chemical corrosion effect of strong acid (such as sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid), and has problems such as violent reaction, poor surface uniformity, easy generation of acid mist and heavy metal-containing waste liquid. In contrast, electrolytic polishing can achieve better surface flattening effect by selectively dissolving micro convexities through anodic oxidation, and has high polishing treatment efficiency and does not produce volatile acid mist pollution.
[0005] However, although electrolytic phosphating and electrolytic polishing technology partially solve the environmental problems of traditional processes, they still have systematic defects. Electrolytic phosphating generates a dense phosphating film through cathodic reduction reaction, which avoids the generation of phosphating slag, but requires continuous replenishment of metal cations such as zinc and iron and phosphate ions in long-term operation. At the same time, the accumulation of free acid can easily lead to the failure of the bath solution, which requires frequent testing and adjustment of the phosphating solution, consuming a large amount of labor cost. Electrolytic polishing achieves higher flattening by anodic oxidation, but due to the enrichment of metal cations and the consumption of free acid, the application effect of the polishing solution will gradually degrade and eventually fail, and the polishing solution must be replaced regularly, and waste liquid and waste slag containing heavy metals are discharged, which has high disposal cost and great pollution risk.
[0006] More importantly, in the current actual production process, electrolytic phosphating and electrolytic polishing are operated as independent processes in separate tanks, resulting in low resource recycling rate. Electrolytic phosphating consumes metal ions and phosphate and produces free acid, while electrolytic polishing consumes free acid and releases metal ions, and the by-products of the two processes cannot be utilized mutually. This fragmented process not only increases the investment in electrolysis and supporting equipment, but also causes waste of chemical resources, and increases the disposal cost and environmental pressure of hazardous waste.
[0007] Therefore, it is of great significance to provide an electrolyte with excellent phosphating effect and polishing effect and a polishing-phosphating integrated process. SUMMARY

[0068] In the present invention, the phosphoric acid is added to the electrolyte, providing acid radical ions during electrolytic phosphating, which can combine with metal cations to deposit on the surface of the metal substrate and transform into insoluble phosphate protective film. During electrolytic polishing, the phosphoric acid with certain viscosity will form a liquid film diffusion layer on the surface of the metal substrate, promoting the preferential dissolution of the micro-protrusions on the anode surface, improving the roughness of the metal surface and increasing the flatness.
[0069] In the present invention, the zinc oxide is added to the electrolyte, providing the metal cations required for the electrolytic phosphating film layer during electrolytic phosphating.
[0070] In the present application, the organic acid is added to the electrolyte, which can effectively buffer the free acid in the phosphating solution during electrolytic phosphating, and realize the steady-state regulation of the electrolytic phosphating tank solution acidity. The acidity control is a key factor affecting the uniformity and quality of the phosphating film. Through the combination of various organic acids, the microstructure of the electrolytic phosphating film can be optimized, the electrolytic phosphating effect can be enhanced, the porosity and crack phenomenon can be reduced, and the appearance quality of the electrolytic phosphating film can be improved. During electrolytic polishing, the organic acid can form a stable complex with metal ions, effectively chelate the metal cations in the polishing solution, promote the dissolution of the metal substrate and impurity particles, realize the steady-state regulation of the electrolytic polishing solution metal ions, and improve the polishing efficiency.
[0071] In the present application, the fatty alcohol is added to the electrolyte, which can promote the dissolution and dispersion of the effective components in the electrolyte. During electrolytic phosphating, it can reduce the surface tension, enhance the wettability, promote the detachment of bubbles from the substrate surface, expose more active sites for electrolytic phosphating, and improve the phosphating efficiency. During electrolytic polishing, it can relieve chemical corrosion, form a liquid film diffusion layer with phosphoric acid, promote uniform contact between the polishing solution and the metal substrate surface, avoid local polishing unevenness, and improve polishing flatness.
[0072] In the present application, the inorganic ammonium salt is added to the electrolyte, which can increase the ion concentration of the solution, reduce the resistance of the electrolyte, and accelerate the movement rate of electrons, thereby greatly improving the conductivity of the electrolyte, improving the current efficiency of the electrochemical reaction process, promoting the electrochemical reaction, significantly reducing the voltage required for electrolytic polishing, shortening the electrochemical reaction time, improving the efficiency of electrolytic phosphating and polishing, and reducing energy consumption.
[0073] In the present application, the polarizer is added to the electrolyte, which can be preferentially adsorbed or electrochemically reduced at the location where the metal crystal grows faster, increase the cathode overpotential, block the discharge of metal cations, and strengthen the hydrogen evolution reaction. During electrolytic phosphating, it promotes the deposition of phosphate on the metal wire, inhibits the reduction reaction of metal ions on the cathode plate, and improves the directionality and compactness of phosphate deposition.
[0074] In the present application, the dispersant is added to the electrolyte, which can promote the dissolution and dispersion of the effective components in the electrolyte, reduce the surface tension of the electrolyte, and improve the wettability and coverage of the electrolyte on the metal substrate surface.

[0080] In some embodiments, in step S102, first slowly add phosphoric acid into deionized water, control the stirring speed at 100-120r / min, then add zinc oxide in 3-5 batches with 1-2 minutes interval, heat to 60-70℃, adjust the stirring speed to 160-200r / min, until zinc oxide is completely reacted to ensure the completeness of the reaction and the uniformity of the mixture.

[0083] In the present application, the role of step S102 is to promote the complete reaction of phosphoric acid and zinc oxide by controlling the feeding sequence and stirring conditions, to generate a uniform mixture. By adding the materials step by step and gradually heating, the complete reaction of phosphoric acid and zinc oxide is ensured, avoiding local overheating or uneven reaction caused by violent reaction, thereby improving the quality and uniformity of the mixture.
[0084] In the present application, the role of step S103 is to ensure uniform dispersion and complete dissolution of each component by gradually adding functional raw materials, and to ensure sufficient dissolution of functional raw materials under appropriate conditions by controlling temperature and stirring speed, forming a uniform and stable electrolyte, avoiding separation of effective components.
[0085] In the present application, the role of step S104 is to add volatile or heat-sensitive raw materials under low temperature conditions to avoid the influence of high temperature on heat-sensitive raw materials, and at the same time, to further homogenize and stabilize the electrolyte system by continuing to stir, so as to finally obtain a uniform and stable steel wire polishing-phosphating integrated electrolyte.
[0086] In a third aspect, the present application provides a steel polishing-phosphating integrated process.

[0094] In some embodiments, in step S201, the heating temperature is 30-50℃, and the stirring speed is maintained at 150-250r / min to promote the uniform distribution of the electrolyte.
[0095] In some embodiments, in step S202, the cathode plate material is a hydrogen evolution plate such as a graphite plate, a titanium plate, a platinum plate, a stainless steel plate, etc., the cathode plate shape is sheet-shaped, plate-shaped, net-shaped or rod-shaped, and the cathode plate area should be more than 1.5 times the surface area of the metal substrate in the reaction zone. The electrolysis power supply must output a direct current power supply with a voltage / current stability of ≤1%, a ripple and noise of ≤1%, support for constant current / constant voltage mode switching, including overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, short circuit, overheating, open phase protection, etc., according to the power and environment to match the corresponding cooling method, which can adapt to humid and corrosive environments, meet safety certification and industry standards, and ensure stable and controllable electrolysis process. The conductive pressure roller needs to have a high conductivity of ≥80% IACS, can withstand short-term arc impact, needs to resist corrosion of acidic media such as electrolyte, the roller hardness needs to match the material being pressed, the compressive strength is ≥500 MPa, can withstand high-frequency cyclic loads, and does not deform under long-term pressure.
[0096] In some embodiments, in step S203, the straightening machine needs to have sufficient straightening force to adapt to the straightening needs of metal substrates of different strengths, and can use a multi-roller design to ensure that the straightness of the wire is ≤2 mm / m. The belt sander can adapt to 60#-200# mesh sanding belts, and the abrasive on the surface of the sanding belt is silicon carbide or aluminum oxide to remove the oxide layer and impurities on the surface of the metal substrate. The water washing tank and the post-water washing tank have clean water, with a pH value of 6-8, a turbidity of ≤5 NTU, and a total dissolved solids content of ≤1000 mg / L; the hot air dryer temperature is controlled at 120°C-160°C to ensure uniform drying of the wire.
[0097] In some embodiments, in step S204, the current density of electrolytic polishing is 10-30 A / dm 2 , the electrolytic polishing temperature is maintained at 30°C-50°C, and the wire speed is maintained at 0.2-0.4 m / s to control the speed and quality of electrolytic polishing.
[0098] In some embodiments, in step S205, the anode plate material is graphite plate, platinum-coated plate, iridium-tantalum mixed metal oxide-coated plate, platinum-iridium-tantalum mixed metal oxide-coated plate, etc. Oxygen evolution plate, the shape of the anode plate is sheet, plate, net or rod, and the area of the anode plate should be more than 1.5 times the surface area of the metal substrate in the reaction zone. The electrolysis power supply must output direct current power, the voltage / current stability is ≤1%, the ripple and noise is ≤1%, it supports constant current / constant voltage mode switching, including overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, short circuit, overheating, open phase protection, etc. According to the power and the environment, the corresponding cooling method is matched, which can adapt to humid and corrosive environment, meet the safety certification and industry standard, and ensure the stability and controllability of the electrolysis process. The conductive pressure roller needs to have high conductivity of ≥80% IACS, can withstand short-time arc impact, needs to resist the corrosion of acidic medium such as electrolyte, the roller hardness needs to match the pressed material, the compressive strength is ≥500MPa, can withstand high-frequency cyclic load and long-term pressure without deformation.
[0099] In some embodiments, in step S206, the straightening machine needs to have enough straightening force to adapt to the straightening needs of metal substrates of different strengths, and a multi-roller design can be used to ensure that the straightness of the wire is ≤2mm / m. The water quality of the water washing tank and the post-water washing tank is clean, the pH value is between 6-8, the turbidity is ≤5NTU, and the total dissolved solids content is ≤1000mg / L; the temperature of the hot air dryer is controlled at 120℃-160℃ to ensure uniform drying of the wire.
[0100] In some embodiments, in step S207, the current density of electrolytic phosphating is 20-40A / dm 2 , the electrolytic phosphating temperature is kept at 10℃-20℃, and the walking speed is kept at 0.8-1.2m / s to control the speed and quality of electrolytic phosphating.
[0101] In the present application, the role of step S201 is to promote the full reaction of the chemical components in the electrolyte, improve the uniformity of the electrolyte, and ensure the normal operation of the electrolytic tank and uniform mass transfer.
[0102] In the present application, the role of step S202 is to ensure the correct connection of the electrodes in the electrolysis process, and the selection and installation of the cathode plate ensure the efficiency and stability of the electrochemical reaction during electrolytic polishing. At the same time, the conductive pressure roller is connected to the positive electrode of the electrolysis power supply, ensuring effective transmission of current and providing reliable electrical conditions for subsequent electrolytic polishing treatment.
[0103] In the present application, the role of step S203 is to pretreat the raw wire, ensure the straightness of the wire through the straightening machine, remove the surface oxide layer and impurities through the abrasive belt machine, and clean the wire surface through the water washing tank to prepare for electrolytic polishing treatment. This series of pretreatment steps ensures that the wire reaches the best state before entering the electrolytic tank, which is beneficial to improve the effect of electrolytic polishing.
[0104] In the present application, the role of step S204 is to realize the electrolytic polishing treatment of the raw wire material by precise control of the current density, polishing temperature and wire running speed. The setting of these parameters ensures the stability of the polishing process and the quality of the polished wire, so that the surface of the wire reaches the expected smoothness and uniformity.
[0105] In the present application, when step S204 is carried out for electrolytic polishing, the surface of the metal substrate acts as an anode to generate an electrochemical reaction under the action of the electrolyte. Due to the overpotential caused by concentration polarization and the difference in electric field distribution caused by the surface topography of the abrasive belt polishing process, the current density of the protruding part of the metal wire surface is much larger than that of the concave part, and the electrochemical reaction of the protruding part is more intense, so the dissolution and release speed of metal cations is faster than that of the concave part. The electrolytic polishing process plays a role in micro-leveling on the surface of the metal substrate. While on the cathode plate, due to the high acidity of the electrolyte, hydrogen is precipitated violently, and due to the impact of a large amount of hydrogen bubbles on the surface of the plate, the reduction of metal cations and the deposition of phosphate on the plate are hindered.
[0106] In the present application, the role of step S205 is to prepare for electrolytic phosphating treatment after electrolytic polishing treatment by switching the process polarity and replacing the electrolytic plate. The selection and installation of the anode plate ensure the efficiency and stability of the electrolytic phosphating reaction, and the conductive pressure roller is connected to the negative electrode of the electrolytic power supply, ensuring the effective transmission of current and providing reliable electrical conditions for subsequent electrolytic phosphating treatment.
[0107] In the present application, the role of step S206 is to further process the polished wire, ensure the straightness of the wire through the straightening machine, and clean the surface of the wire through the water washing tank, preparing for electrolytic phosphating treatment. These steps ensure that the wire is in the best state before entering the electrolytic tank, which is beneficial to improve the effect of electrolytic phosphating. The post-water washing tank cleans the residual electrolyte on the surface of the wire, and the hot air dryer ensures uniform drying of the wire, which is beneficial to improve the application effect of the finished wire.
[0108] In the present application, the role of step S207 is to realize the electrolytic phosphating treatment of the polished wire by precise control of the current density, phosphating temperature and wire running speed. The setting of these parameters ensures the stability of the phosphating process and the quality of the finished wire, so that a uniform and dense phosphating film is formed on the surface of the wire, improving the corrosion resistance and subsequent processing performance of the wire.
[0109] In the present application, when electrolytic phosphating is carried out in step S207, the polished metal substrate surface acts as a cathode to generate an electrochemical reaction under the action of the electrolyte. Since the acidity of the electrolyte is greatly reduced by the previous electrolytic polishing process, the intensity of the hydrogen evolution reaction is greatly reduced, and the disturbance of the bubbles is difficult to interfere with the electrolytic phosphating film forming process. The hydrogen evolution reaction causes the dihydrogen phosphate ion to ionize into hydrogen ion and phosphate ion, and the phosphate ion reaches the saturation point with the metal cation on the interface to deposit on the wire surface in the form of phosphate to form a phosphating film. On the anode plate, oxygen evolution reaction occurs, releasing free acid to replenish the acidity of the electrolyte for subsequent electrolytic polishing process.

[0217] Table 2 Technical index detection results of phosphating film layer after electrolytic polishing and electrolytic phosphating
[0218]
[0219]
[0220] The Q235 metal substrate was subjected to electrolytic polishing and electrolytic phosphating operations according to the requirements of each example and comparative example. The effects of the phosphating film layer of Example 3 and Comparative Examples 1-6 were observed under a metallographic microscope, and the results are shown in Table 2. Figures 1-7 .
[0221] The metallographic microscope photograph results of Example 3 show that the electrolytic phosphating film layer exhibits excellent uniformity and integrity. The surface of the film layer is smooth, with no obvious pores or defects, indicating that the electrolytic polishing and electrolytic phosphating process can uniformly form a dense and uniform phosphating film. The film layer tightly covers the surface of the wire, showing excellent protective performance, which can effectively resist the erosion of the external environment, ensuring the durability and protection of the Q235 substrate.
[0222] After removing the fatty alcohol in the formula of Comparative Example 1, the roughness after electrolytic phosphating alone reached 2.87 μm, the surface roughness Ra value of the wire after electrolytic polishing reached 3.85 μm, and the roughness after electrolytic phosphating was still as high as 2.54 μm. The phosphating film formed had a thickness of only 2-4 μm, and under a metallographic microscope, it showed obvious unevenness and defect characteristics, with an adhesion level of grade three, a sharp decline in corrosion resistance, and a rust prevention period of less than 10 days. The absence of fatty alcohol led to a decrease in the wettability of the electrolyte on the substrate surface, and the surface tension was not effectively controlled, causing the detachment of gas bubbles to be blocked, which not only affected the microscopic leveling effect of the electrolytic polishing process, but also interfered with the film formation of the electrolytic phosphating reaction.
[0223] After omitting the polarizer in the formula of Comparative Example 2, the roughness after electrolytic phosphating alone reached 2.97 μm, and the surface roughness after electrolytic polishing and phosphating treatment was 3.64 μm and 2.11 μm, respectively. The phosphating film had a thickness of 3-5 μm and had slight defects, with an adhesion level of grade two, a deterioration in corrosion resistance, and a rust prevention period of less than 30 days. Under a metallographic microscope, the deposition effect of the electrolytic phosphating film layer was poor, and it failed to effectively fill the micro concave parts of the substrate surface, directly affecting the formation and quality of the phosphating film layer and reducing the corrosion resistance. The absence of the polarizer disrupted the kinetics control of the electrochemical reaction, leading to a failure to effectively balance the difference in growth rate of metal and metal salt crystals, a decrease in the cathode overpotential adjustment capability, and a damage to the directionality and density of phosphate deposition. The electrolytic phosphating process weakened the improvement effect on the smoothness of the metal substrate surface, leading to an increase in the unevenness of the phosphating film layer and affecting the optimization of the surface roughness.
[0224] After the process temperature of the configuration steps S102-S104 was raised to 100°C in Comparative Example 3, the roughness after separate electrolytic phosphating reached 3.13 μm, the surface roughness after electrolytic polishing increased to 4.03 μm, the phosphating still maintained a relatively high level of 2.89 μm, the uniformity of the film layer deteriorated seriously, the thickness was only 2-4 μm and the adhesion rating was three, the corrosion resistance and rust prevention period were both reduced to a low level, and under the observation of a metallographic microscope, the phosphating film layer had defects such as air holes and increased roughness. The low-temperature feeding process plays an important role in maintaining the activity of the functional components of the electrolyte and the homogeneity of the system. High-temperature treatment destroys the stability of the electrolyte system, leading to degradation or inactivation of heat-sensitive components, which in turn weakens the buffering capacity of the electrolyte in the polishing process and the film-forming driving force of the phosphating reaction.
[0225] The roughness after separate electrolytic phosphating reached 1.92 μm in Comparative Example 4, the surface roughness Ra of the wire after electrolytic polishing was 3.83 μm, and the roughness after electrolytic phosphating still maintained a relatively high level of 1.64 μm. Although the phosphating film had a relatively thick deposition layer of 6-8 μm and a uniform appearance, it had slight defect characteristics, the adhesion reached the first level standard, and the indoor rust prevention period reached 60 days. The formula disclosed in Chinese Invention Patent CN118497864A can meet the basic phosphating requirements, but the component design and process logic do not consider the synergistic adaptability of the electrolytic polishing process at all. Inadequate treatment during electrolytic polishing may result in the failure to effectively remove the oxide layer and impurities in some areas of the substrate surface. On the one hand, the lack of fatty alcohol surfactants in the formula leads to insufficient wettability of the electrolyte, and in the absence of ultrasonic assistance, the surface tension cannot be reduced to promote rapid bubble detachment, resulting in micro-uniform dissolution due to increased bubble disturbance during electrolytic polishing; on the other hand, the formula does not introduce electrochemical regulating components such as polarizers, which makes the dissolution rate of metal cations uncontrollable during electrolytic polishing, and the directional and compactness of phosphate deposition during phosphating is limited, ultimately forming a phosphating film with basic protection function, but the overall performance is still not as good as that of the sample of the embodiment.
[0226] The combination of ultra-low current density and fast walking in the electrolytic polishing stage and the combination of over-high current density and slow walking in the electrolytic phosphating stage of Comparative Example 5 result in a roughness of 4.04 μm after electrolytic phosphating alone, a surface roughness Ra value of 3.90 μm after electrolytic polishing, and a high value of 3.05 μm after electrolytic phosphating. The phosphating film formed under this parameter combination is not only severely uneven, but also has a thickness of only 2-4 μm and obvious defects, an adhesion rating of grade three, and a rust prevention period of less than 10 days. The over-low current density in the polishing stage weakens the driving force for the dissolution of metal cations, resulting in the failure of the electrochemical flattening effect of the micro-protruding parts, while the over-high walking speed exacerbates the imbalance of liquid-phase mass transfer; in the phosphating stage, the over-high current density causes disordered deposition of phosphates, forming a loose and porous film structure, while the over-slow walking speed causes local over-reaction zones, ultimately destroying the integrity and compactness of the film.
[0227] The completely reversed process scheme in Comparative Example 6 in terms of electrode polarity setting results in a roughness of 4.77 μm after electrolytic phosphating alone, an abnormally high surface roughness Ra value of 4.87 μm after electrolytic polishing, and a high value of 4.74 μm after phosphating, with a phosphating film thickness of only 0-1 μm and almost no film formation. When the metal substrate is forced to act as a cathode in the polishing stage, the anodic dissolution reaction that should originally occur is inhibited, instead causing hydrogen evolution and competing with the reduction of metal ions, resulting in surface morphology deterioration, while setting the substrate as an anode in the phosphating stage accelerates the dissolution of the metal matrix rather than the deposition of phosphates, ultimately completely blocking the formation path of the phosphating film, and neither the electrolytic polishing nor the electrolytic phosphating process can effectively proceed, and the phosphating film layer cannot be formed.
