[0002] The invention is directed to a combination of a conditioner bath and a calcium modified zinc phosphating solution containing hydroxylamine which provide an improved phosphate coating on the surface of ferrous metal articles. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0003] Metal phosphate coating solutions are dilute solutions of phosphoric acid and other chemicals which are applied to the surface of metal; the surface of the metal reacts with the solution and forms an integral layer (on the surface of the metal) of substantially insoluble crystalline or amorphous phosphate. This layer is applied primarily for protection from corrosion, or as a base for the application of a second coating (e.g., paint), or for lubrication purposes. The metal substrate can be contacted with the acid...
