Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of component surface coating treatment, and in particular relates to a stainless steel bracket assembly surface coating treatment method. Background Art

[0002] Stainless steel is widely used in various industries due to its good corrosion resistance, excellent appearance, high strength and high temperature resistance. In the past, special vehicle stainless steel parts only used surface passivation treatment to meet product protection and use requirements, and there was no surface coating treatment process for stainless steel.

[0003] The service conditions of special vehicles are complex and changeable. The service environment includes both land and glacial seawater. The environmental characteristics are high humidity, high heat, extremely low temperature and strong corrosion. The service temperature range is wide, from -70℃ to 45℃. Therefore, the surface performance requirements of parts are extremely strict, especially the protection performance. Therefore, the parts need to be painted while using stainless steel materials.

[0004] At present, the pre-treatment of coating mainly includes shot peening, degreasing, surface adjustment, phosphating, passivation, etc., which are used to remove oil stains and floating rust and increase the bonding strength between the substrate and the coating. Figure 1 As shown, shot peening cannot completely clean all surfaces of parts, leaving dead corners in some areas. Especially for the bracket assembly made of 12Cr18Ni9, the phosphating treatment does not form a film, and the surface cannot be evenly spread, resulting in uneven thickness, which significantly reduces the adhesion of the coating after painting, and causes shedding during use, reducing the service life. The epoxy coating and fluorocarbon coating currently used are new coatings with high weather resistance and corrosion resistance, and are applied to special vehicles for the first time. Therefore, the surface coating process of epoxy coatings and fluorocarbon coatings and improving the bonding strength between stainless steel substrates and coatings have become the focus of research, in order to provide strong support for improving the overall life of the bracket assembly. Summary of the invention

[0005] 1. Technical issues to be resolved

[0007] (II) Technical solution

[0008] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention proposes a surface coating treatment method for a stainless steel bracket assembly, which uses epoxy zinc-rich primer, epoxy micaceous iron intermediate paint and fluorocarbon coating topcoat to sequentially coat the surface of the bracket assembly.

[0009] Furthermore, the bracket assembly adopts stainless steel 12Cr18Ni9.

[0010] Furthermore, the surface coating treatment method comprises the following steps:

[0011] S1. Degreasing: Soak the stainless steel bracket assembly in a degreasing agent, clean the surface of the bracket assembly, and remove the organic matter and oil residue on the surface;

[0012] S2. Deionized water cleaning: Soak the degreased bracket assembly in deionized water to remove the surface degreasing agent;

[0013] S3.

Under the action of the passivation liquid, a dense passivation film is formed on the surface of the bracket assembly;

[0014] S4. Cleaning: Place the pickled and passivated bracket assembly in running water for cleaning to remove residual passivation liquid and impurities;

[0015] S5. Drying: The cleaned bracket assembly is placed in a dry environment for drying;

[0016] S6. Primer coating: The dried surface of the bracket assembly is coated with primer, and then sent to a curing furnace for curing and drying until the surface of the bracket assembly reaches a surface dry state;

[0017] S7. Intermediate paint coating: The bracket assembly coated with primer is coated with intermediate paint, and then sent to a curing furnace for curing and drying until the surface of the bracket assembly reaches a solid dry state;

[0018] S8. Topcoat painting: The bracket assembly that has been coated with intermediate paint is coated with topcoat, and then sent to a curing furnace for curing and drying until the surface of the bracket assembly reaches a solid dry state.

[0019] Furthermore, in step S1, the degreasing agent is sodium hydroxide, the concentration is 5% to 10%, the temperature is 80 to 100° C., and the soaking time is 10 to 20 minutes.

[0020] Furthermore, in step S3, the components of the pickling passivation solution are 20% sulfuric acid, 30% nitric acid, and the rest are Na2Cr2O7·2H2O and additives; the passivation temperature is 25-35°C, the passivation time is 2-3min, and the passivation film thickness is 0.5-3μm.

[0021] Furthermore, in step S6, the curing temperature is 75-85°C; and the drying is performed at 80°C±5°C for ≥40 min.

[0022] Furthermore, in step S7, the curing temperature is 75-85°C; and the drying is performed at 80°C±5°C for ≥2h.

[0023] Furthermore, in step S8, the curing temperature is 75-85°C; and the drying is performed at 80°C±5°C for ≥2h.

[0024] Furthermore, the coating thickness of the primer is 40 to 80 μm; the coating thickness of the intermediate paint is 80 to 160 μm; and the coating thickness of the topcoat is 50 to 85 μm.

[0025] (III) Beneficial effects

[0026] The present invention proposes a surface coating treatment method for a stainless steel bracket assembly. The bracket assembly is degreased and deoiled, and the surface oil is removed by ion water cleaning, and then pickling and passivation are performed. The surface energy of the material is increased, and the passivation liquid is evenly spread on the surface of the substrate to form a passivation film of uniform thickness. Then, primer, intermediate paint, and topcoat are further applied to obtain stainless steel parts with excellent coating adhesion, and the adhesion level is 0. At the same time, the appearance quality and anti-corrosion performance are greatly improved, and the weather resistance is strong, which can meet the technical requirements of special vehicles in ultra-low temperature and complex service environments. The method can be applied to other stainless steel parts and has good application prospects. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
