Benefits of technology

[0119]The chemical conversion solution and the surface treating method for a metal structure of the present invention are capable of realizing high corrosion resistance as well as high coating adhesion of the metal surface without using the harmful hexavalent chromium. The chemical conversion solution and the surface treating method for a metal structure of the present invention are also capable

Problems solved by technology

However, since it etches the steel material, iron dissolves as a byproduct of the chemical conversion reaction.
As described above, insufficient throwing power during the electrodeposition has been a serious problem in the case of complicated structure such as automobile body.
Of these proposals, the use of the trivalent chromium solution (5) will leave trivalent chromium in the resulting film, and when this film is exposed to a high temperature, the trivalent chromium will turn into the hexavalent chromium which is harmful to the human body.
Accordingly, this technique is inadequate in environmental point of view.
However, this surface treatment (6) is unable to form a consistent film when used for a complicated structure as in the case of an automobile body due to the formation of the liquid pool.
These requirements are not fully overcome.
However, this solution does not dramatically improve the corrosion resistance, and as in the case of other solutions as described above, throwing power during the electrodeposition is not sufficient when used for transportation vehicles such as a
