Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of coating technology, specifically to a method for spraying a water-based collinear primer and a multi-material collinear spraying process. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of the automotive industry, new composite materials are being widely used in car bodies. However, due to the low surface tension, poor wetting properties, and poor adhesion of these new composite materials, oil-based primers are currently the main coatings used for them. But to meet national requirements for green and sustainable development and consumers' environmental needs, water-based coatings for automotive parts are an inevitable trend.

[0003] However, the problem of co-coating composite materials and metal materials is currently prominent. For example, electrophoretic paint is easily deposited on the surface of composite materials, the surface of composite materials after co-coating has poor clarity and gloss, and the paint film on the surface of composite materials is easy to peel off.

[0004] Therefore, in order to enable the extensive use of composite materials in car bodies, there is an urgent need to develop a spraying method for water-based collinear primers suitable for composite materials, so as to enable composite materials to obtain excellent surface roughness and resistivity, thereby ensuring the effect of collinear spraying of composite materials and metal materials. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to achieve collinear spraying of composite materials and metal materials, this application provides a method for spraying water-based collinear primer and a multi-material collinear spraying process.

[0006] In a first aspect, this application provides a method for spraying a water-based collinear primer, employing the following technical solution:

[0007] A method for spraying a water-based collinear primer includes the following steps: pretreatment, spraying, and baking;

[0008] Spraying: The water-based collinear primer is automatically sprayed onto the surface of the pretreated composite material substrate using an automatic spraying equipment; the moving speed of the robotic arm of the automatic spraying equipment is 600-800 mm / s, and the spray gun pressure is 0.3-0.5 MPa.

[0009] This application provides a spraying method for a water-based collinear primer applied to composite materials. The spraying method first pre-treats the composite material substrate to make the surface of the composite material substrate clean, flat, and free of grease and dust. Then, an automatic spraying device is used to automatically spray the water-based collinear primer onto the surface of the composite material substrate. Finally, by drying, a paint film is formed on the surface of the composite material substrate. The paint film has excellent surface roughness and resistivity. When the composite material with the above-mentioned water-based collinear primer is sprayed together with a metal material, electrophoretic coating is performed to ensure that electrophoretic paint is deposited on the surface of the metal material, while no electrophoretic paint is deposited on the surface of the composite material, thus achieving collinear spraying of the composite material and the metal material.

[0010] In this application, the moving speed of the robotic arm and the spray gun pressure of the automatic spraying equipment affect the surface roughness and conductivity of the water-based collinear primer film formed on the surface of the composite material substrate. Experimental investigation revealed that when the robotic arm's moving speed is too slow and the spray gun pressure is too low, the water-based collinear primer will aggregate, resulting in poor film uniformity and consequently high surface roughness and low conductivity. Conversely, when the robotic arm's moving speed is too fast and the spray gun pressure is too high, the water-based collinear primer cannot adhere uniformly to the composite material surface, leading to poor film uniformity, high surface roughness, and low conductivity. Therefore, by controlling the robotic arm's moving speed and spray gun pressure within the aforementioned ranges, this application enables the water-based collinear primer to adhere uniformly and stably to the surface of the composite material substrate, thereby obtaining a composite material with low surface roughness and a narrow resistivity range.

[0011] In some implementations, the robotic arm can move at a speed of 600-700 mm / s or 700-800 mm / s.

[0012] In one specific implementation, the moving speed of the robotic arm can also be 600mm / s, 700mm / s, or 800mm / s.

[0013] In some implementations, the spray gun pressure can be 0.3-0.4 MPa or 0.4-0.5 MPa.

[0014] In one specific implementation, the spray gun pressure can also be 0.3 MPa, 0.4 MPa, or 0.5 MPa.

[0015] Optionally, the robotic arm of the automatic spraying equipment moves at a speed of 600-700 mm / s, and the spray gun pressure is 0.4-0.5 MPa.

[0016] Optionally, the nozzle diameter of the robotic arm of the automatic spraying equipment is 1-1.4 mm, the oil supply pressure is 0.4-0.6 MPa, the fan-shaped pressure is 0.6-0.7 MPa, the atomization pressure is 0.5-0.6 MPa, and the fan-shaped amount is 3-3.5.

[0017] In one specific implementation, the nozzle diameter of the robotic arm of the automatic spraying equipment is 1.2 mm, the oil supply pressure is 0.5 MPa, the fan-shaped pressure is 0.6 MPa, the atomization pressure is 0.5 MPa, and the fan-shaped amount is 3.

[0018] Optionally, the baking temperature is 70-80℃ and the baking time is 60-80 minutes.

[0019] Secondly, this application provides a composite material.

[0020] A composite material is prepared by spraying using the water-based collinear primer spraying method according to any one of claims 1-4.

[0021] Optionally, the film thickness of the water-based collinear primer on the surface of the composite material is 20-40 μm.

[0022] In this application, the film thickness has a significant impact on the roughness and conductivity of the collinear primer. When the film thickness is small, the surface roughness of the film is large, resulting in poor surface clarity and gloss of the final product. Conversely, when the film thickness is large, the resistivity of the film is high, and the conductivity is poor. Therefore, this application has discovered through experimental research that by controlling the film thickness of the water-based collinear primer on the composite material surface within the aforementioned range, a composite material with excellent surface roughness and conductivity can be obtained.

[0023] In some embodiments, the film thickness of the aqueous collinear primer on the surface of the composite material can be 10-20μm, 10-30μm, 10-40μm, 20-30μm, 20-40μm, 20-50μm, 30-40μm, 30-50μm or 40-50μm.

[0024] In some specific implementations, the film thickness of the water-based collinear primer on the surface of the composite material can be 10μm, 20μm, 30μm, 40μm or 50μm.

[0025] Optionally, the resistivity of the composite material is <0.5MΩ.

[0026] Optionally, the surface roughness of the composite material substrate is <0.8 μm.

[0027] In this application, the surface roughness of the composite material substrate affects the surface roughness of the composite material. Experimental investigations have shown that controlling the surface roughness of the composite material substrate to below 0.8 μm can ensure that the surface roughness of the composite material reaches 0.3 μm or below.

[0028] In some embodiments, the surface roughness of the composite material before spraying can be 0.119-0.234 μm, 0.119-0.450 μm, 0.234-0.450 μm, 0.234-0.738 μm, or 0.450-0.738 μm.

[0029] In one specific implementation, the surface roughness of the composite material before spraying can also be 0.119 μm, 0.234 μm, 0.450 μm or 0.738 μm.

[0030] Thirdly, this application provides a multi-material collinear spraying process.

[0031] A multi-material collinear spraying process includes the following steps: composite material pretreatment, metal material pretreatment, and collinear spraying.

[0032] The specific steps of collinear spraying are as follows: the pretreated composite material and the pretreated metal material are placed together in an electrophoretic pool for electrophoresis, and electrophoretic paint is deposited on the surface of the metal material through an electrochemical reaction.

[0033] In this application, spraying a water-based collinear primer onto the composite material substrate enables the formation of a paint film on the surface of the composite material. This paint film ensures that no electrophoretic paint deposits on the surface of the composite material after collinear spraying with the metal material. Furthermore, the conductivity of the paint film on the surface of the composite material is improved after collinear spraying, thereby ensuring excellent workability of the composite material and the metal material in subsequent electrostatic spraying processes.

[0034] In summary, this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0035] 1. This application provides a method for spraying a water-based collinear primer, including pretreatment, spraying, baking and other steps. By adjusting the moving speed of the robotic arm of the automatic spraying equipment to 600-800 mm / s and the spray gun pressure to 0.3-0.5 MPa in the spraying step, this application enables the paint film on the surface of the composite material substrate to have excellent surface roughness and resistivity, thereby enabling the collinear spraying of composite materials and metal materials.

[0036] 2. By controlling the film thickness of the water-based collinear primer on the surface of the composite material to within the range of 20-40 μm and the surface roughness of the composite material substrate to below 0.8 μm, this application can further improve the surface roughness and conductivity of the composite material, making the surface roughness of the composite material <0.3 μm and the resistivity ≤0.4 MΩ. Detailed Implementation

[0037] A spraying process for a water-based collinear primer.

[0038] This application provides a spraying process for a water-based collinear primer, comprising the following steps:

[0039] (1) Pretreatment: First, the composite material substrate is pretreated to ensure that the surface is clean, flat and free of impurities such as grease and dust; then, white spirit is used to wipe the surface of the composite material substrate to remove impurities and dirt; finally, dust is removed by blowing to further ensure that there is no residual dust on the surface.

[0040] (2) Spraying: An automatic spraying machine (model FANUC Robot P-250iB) is used to automatically spray the water-based collinear primer onto the surface of the composite material substrate. The parameters of the robotic arm of the automatic spraying machine are set as follows: nozzle diameter 1-1.4mm, moving speed 600-800mm / s, spray gun pressure 0.3-0.5MPa, atomization pressure 0.5-0.6MPa, oil supply pressure 0.4-0.6MPa, and fan-shaped spray pattern 3-3.5.

[0041] (3) Baking: After the water-based collinear primer is sprayed, the composite material enters the leveling stage for leveling, and then enters the baking chamber and is baked at 70-80℃ for 60-80 minutes to obtain the composite material sprayed with water-based collinear primer.

[0042] A multi-material collinear spraying process includes the following steps:

[0043] (1) Composite material pretreatment (substrate treatment): The surface of the composite material to be sprayed with water-based collinear primer is pretreated to ensure cleanliness, remove grease and impurities, and obtain the pretreated composite material.

Through an electrochemical reaction, electrophoretic paint is deposited on the surface of the metal material, while no electrophoretic paint is deposited on the surface of the composite material. During the electrophoretic coating process, excess paint is collected through an overflow recovery system to reduce waste.

[0046] (4) Post-treatment: After the co-line spraying is completed, pure water spraying, pure water soaking, draining and baking are carried out in sequence. Finally, the parts are inspected and the subsequent processes are carried out after passing the inspection.

[0099] Performance testing

[0100] The surface roughness and resistivity of the surface paint film of the composite material vehicle hoods provided in Examples 1-13 and Comparative Examples 1-6 were tested, and the results are shown in Table 5 below.

[0101] The method for testing surface roughness is based on ISO 1997; the method for testing resistivity is based on QJ 2220.2-1992.

[0102] Table 5 shows the performance test results of the composite material vehicle hoods provided in Examples 1-13 and Comparative Examples 1-6.

[0103]

[0104]

[0105] The test results of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-2 show that as the moving speed of the robotic arm in the spraying process increases, the surface roughness and resistivity of the composite material car hood exhibit a trend of first decreasing and then increasing. In Comparative Example 1, when the moving speed of the robotic arm was controlled at 500 mm / s, the surface roughness of the resulting paint film was 0.414 μm, and the resistivity was as high as 1.1 μm. In Comparative Example 2, when the moving speed of the robotic arm was controlled at 900 mm / s, the surface roughness of the resulting paint film was 0.387 μm, and the resistivity was 0.8 μm. In Examples 1-3, when the moving speed of the robotic arm was controlled between 600-800 mm / s, the surface roughness of the resulting paint film was 0.236-0.273 μm, and the resistivity was 0.3-0.4 μm. Therefore, it is demonstrated that by controlling the moving speed of the robotic arm in the coating process within the range of 600-800 mm / s, this application can obtain composite material hangers with low surface roughness and low resistivity.

[0106] The test results of Examples 1, 4-5, and Comparative Examples 2-3 show that as the spray gun pressure increases during the coating process, the surface roughness and resistivity of the composite material car hood exhibit a trend of first decreasing and then increasing. In Comparative Example 3, when the spray gun pressure was controlled at 0.2 MPa, the surface roughness of the resulting paint film was 0.336 μm, and the resistivity was as high as 0.8 μm; when the spray gun pressure was controlled at 0.6 MPa, the surface roughness of the resulting paint film was 0.585 μm, and the resistivity was 1.3 μm; while in Examples 1 and 4-5, when the spray gun pressure was controlled between 0.3 and 0.5 MPa, the surface roughness of the resulting paint film was 0.236-0.277 μm, and the resistivity was 0.3-0.4 μm. Therefore, this application demonstrates that by controlling the spray gun pressure in the coating process within the range of 0.3-0.5 MPa, composite material hangers with low surface roughness and low resistivity can be obtained.

[0107] The test results of Examples 1 and 6-9 show that as the paint film thickness increases, the surface roughness of the composite material vehicle hood gradually decreases, and the resistivity initially decreases and then increases. Further comparison reveals that in Example 6, when the paint film thickness is 10 μm, the surface roughness is 0.281 μm and the resistivity is 0.4 μm; in Example 9, when the paint film thickness is 50 μm, the surface roughness is 0.225 μm and the resistivity is 0.5 μm; and in Examples 7-8, when the paint film thickness is 20-40 μm, the surface roughness is 0.231-0.234 μm and the resistivity is 0.3-0.4 μm. Therefore, this application demonstrates that by further controlling the paint film thickness on the composite material surface within the range of 20-40 μm, the surface roughness of the composite material can be further reduced, and its conductivity improved.

[0108] The test results of Examples 1 and 10-13 show that the surface roughness of the composite material substrate affects the surface roughness and conductivity of the composite material hanger after spraying. Comparison reveals that Example 13 used a composite material substrate with a surface roughness of 0.858 μm, resulting in a composite material surface roughness of 0.314 μm; while Examples 1 and 10-12 controlled the surface roughness of the composite material substrate to below 0.8 μm, resulting in composite materials with a surface roughness <0.3 μm. Therefore, this application demonstrates that controlling the surface roughness of the composite material substrate to below 0.8 μm in this application yields composite material hangers with better surface roughness and conductivity.

[0109] The robotic arm parameters of the automatic spraying machine in Comparative Example 5 were used to spray the composite material substrate, resulting in a composite material with a surface roughness of 0.628 μm and a resistivity of 1.8 μm. This indicates that the process parameters provided in Comparative Example 5 cannot produce composite material hangers with low surface roughness and low resistivity when spraying the composite material substrate.

[0110] Comparative Example 6 used oil-based paint from related technologies to spray the composite material substrate. The resulting composite material had a small amount of electrophoretic paint deposited locally on its surface, leading to problems such as high surface roughness and uneven surface stress distribution. Its surface roughness reached as high as 0.823 μm, and its resistivity reached as high as 6.3 μm. Therefore, it is evident that Comparative Example 6, using oil-based paint to spray the composite material substrate, is unlikely to produce composite material hangers with low roughness and low resistivity.

[0111] Application Example 1

[0112] Application Example 1 provides a collinear spraying process for composite material automobiles. The collinear spraying process includes the following steps:

[0113] (1) Composite material pretreatment (substrate treatment): The composite material car hood obtained in Example 1 is subjected to surface pretreatment to ensure cleanliness, remove grease and impurities, and obtain the pretreated composite material car hood.

[0114] (2) Metal material pretreatment: hot water washing of the metal car body; then pre-degreasing, degreasing, water washing, film phosphating, pure water washing, and draining of the car body to obtain the pretreated metal car body;

[0115] (3) Collinear Spraying: The pretreated composite material hood and the treated metal body are entered into an electrophoretic coating pool together. Through an electrochemical reaction, electrophoretic paint (grade NTB-G-3) is deposited on the surface of the metal body, while no electrophoretic paint is deposited on the surface of the composite material hood; a uniform electrophoretic paint coating is formed on the surface of the metal body. During the electrophoretic coating process, excess paint is collected through an overflow recovery system to reduce waste.

[0116] (4) Post-processing: After the co-line spraying is completed, the car body is sprayed with pure water, soaked in pure water, drained and baked in sequence. Finally, the parts are inspected and qualified. Then, a three-coat and three-bake process is carried out to obtain the painted composite material car body.

[0117] Comparative Application Example 1

[0118] Comparative Application Example 1 provides a collinear spraying process for composite material automobiles.

[0119] The difference between Application Example 1 and Application Example 2 is that the composite material car hood is derived from Comparative Example 6.

[0120] Performance testing

[0121] For example 1, the surface performance of the composite material hood of the vehicle body obtained in example 1 was tested, including long-wavelength value, short-wavelength value, sharpness, gloss, and adhesion. The test results are shown in Table 6 below.

[0122] The testing methods for long-wavelength value, short-wavelength value and sharpness are in accordance with ASTM D5767-2018; the testing method for gloss is in accordance with ASTM D523-2018; and the testing method for adhesion is in accordance with GB / T 9286-2021.

[0123] The adhesion testing method refers to GB / T 9286-2021. The adhesion grading is as follows: Grade 0 - no peeling within the mesh; Grade 1 - mesh peeling ≤ 5%; Grade 2 - mesh peeling 5-15%; Grade 3 - mesh peeling 15-35%; Grade 4 - mesh peeling 35-65%; Grade 5 - mesh peeling ≥ 65%.

This indicates that the water-based collinear primer spraying process provided in this application can achieve a composite material hood with excellent surface roughness and resistivity. When the composite material hood is electrophoretically coated together with the metal body, no electrophoretic paint is deposited on the surface of the composite material hood, and the surface properties of the composite material are excellent after electrophoresis.

[0127] Although the present invention has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, all such modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
