[0002] The coating of metal surface is a widely used corrosion protection method, and the metal surface usually needs to be treated before coating, the purpose of which is to establish a non-metallic coating protective layer on the surface of the protected metal medium, so as to improve the adhesion between the metal medium and the coating film, thereby improving the protection of the coating on the metal. The traditional pretreatment process is phosphating process, but the phosphating process has the problems of poor production continuity, complex process, use of large amount of strong acid and strong base, and large pollution emission. Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, the skilled in the art discloses a phosphating alternative technology, such as zirconium and silane, among which the zirconium treatment agent can form a ceramic conversion film on the surface of the substrate, the rust prevention and coating adhesion are much higher than that of iron phosphating, and it can be combined with processes such as powder spraying, electrophoresis and paint spraying, and has the characteristics of environmental protection, energy saving, simple operation and low cost. At present, the zirconium treatment agent also has high requirements for workpiece material and water quality, and there is a problem of rusting for some cold rolled plates.

[0003] In view of the above problems of the zirconium treatment agent, the prior art CN111040485A discloses an environmentally friendly metal surface treatment agent and a use method, which is phosphorus-free, chromium-free, environmentally friendly, non-toxic and harmless, can form a chemical film on the metal surface, and has excellent rust prevention performance and long-term corrosion inhibition performance. However, the present application found that when the above metal surface treatment agent is used, the coupling agent and the electrostatic powder spraying and the acrylate ultraviolet ink are used together, the coupling agent has the problem of poor adhesion of the electrostatic powder spraying layer and the acrylate ultraviolet ink layer, and the coating peeling problem easily occurs. SUMMARY

[0004] The present application provides a metal medium UV printing method to solve the problem of poor adhesion between the electrostatic powder spraying layer and the acrylate ultraviolet ink layer formed by the metal coating treatment in the prior art. The method uses a coupling agent, electrostatic powder spraying and acrylate ultraviolet ink to coat the metal medium. The powder raw material of the electrostatic powder spraying is a modified thermosetting resin modified by an amino silane coupling agent. After the modified thermosetting resin is sprayed onto the coupling layer, the amino silane coupling agent and the silane coupling agent in the coupling layer will produce a coupling reaction, which improves the adhesion between the coupling layer and the electrostatic powder spraying layer. The photoinitiator in the acrylate ultraviolet ink can strengthen the coupling reaction between the amino silane coupling agent and the acrylate resin, which improves the adhesion between the acrylate ultraviolet ink layer and the electrostatic powder spraying layer, and significantly improves the adhesion of the coating on the metal medium surface.

[0005] The specific technical scheme of the present application is as follows:

[0006] A metal medium UV printing method, comprising the following steps: pretreating the surface of a metal medium to form a pretreated metal, cleaning the pretreated metal using a cleaning agent to form a metal medium negative, placing the metal medium negative in a UV printing device and using an acrylate UV ink for UV printing, the pretreatment comprising electrostatic powder spraying, the powder raw material of the electrostatic powder spraying being 70-80 parts of resin powder, 5-10 parts of curing agent, 3-6 parts of dispersing agent, and 5-10 parts of pigment; the resin powder being a modified thermosetting resin, and the modified thermosetting resin being made of an amino silane coupling agent modified thermosetting epoxy resin.

[0007] The present application provides a metal medium UV printing method, which uses a ceramization agent, electrostatic powder spraying and acrylate UV ink for coating treatment of the metal medium. The method can significantly improve the adhesion of the electrostatic powder spraying layer to the ceramization layer and the acrylate UV ink layer, and significantly improve the adhesion of the coating on the surface of the metal medium. It is found in actual operation that the adhesion between the ceramization layer, the electrostatic powder spraying layer and the acrylate UV ink layer is poor and peeling easily occurs. After analysis, it is found that the ceramization agent of the present application uses the environmentally friendly metal surface treatment agent disclosed in CN111040485A. The ceramization agent can form a ceramic film layer on the metal surface, so that the metal surface can form a chemical film layer that can receive a non-metal coating. In addition, the silane coupling agent contained in the ceramization agent can couple with the electrostatic powder spraying layer, thereby improving the adhesion of the electrostatic powder spraying layer to the ceramization layer.

[0008] In addition, it is found that the powder raw material of the current electrostatic spraying powder mainly comprises thermosetting resin, curing agent, dispersing agent and pigment. The thermosetting resin usually uses thermosetting epoxy resin. Although epoxy resin has strong adhesion, the compatibility of epoxy resin with acrylate is poor, which leads to poor adhesion of the acrylate UV ink to the electrostatic spraying powder layer, and the acrylate UV ink layer is extremely easy to peel off from the electrostatic spraying powder layer.

[0009] Therefore, the application proposes to use silane coupling agent to strengthen the binding force between the electrostatic spraying powder layer and the acrylate UV ink, in addition, since the electrostatic spraying powder is a solid powder, and the silane coupling agent mainly exists in liquid form, the application selects to use the silane coupling agent to modify the epoxy resin to make modified epoxy resin, and then the modified epoxy resin is made into powder for electrostatic powder spraying, the epoxy resin modified by the silane coupling agent can further couple with the silane coupling agent in the ceram layer, so as to further improve the binding force between the ceram layer and the electrostatic powder layer, and the silane coupling agent in the electrostatic powder layer can also couple with the acrylate UV ink layer, so as to significantly improve the binding force between the acrylate UV ink layer and the electrostatic powder spraying layer; the application also selects the silane coupling agent, and the application finds that when the amino silane coupling agent is used, the toughness of the electrostatic powder spraying layer and the acrylate UV ink layer is significantly improved, and the electrostatic powder spraying layer and the acrylate UV ink layer can still not fall off after impact, and the impact resistance of the electrostatic powder spraying layer and the acrylate UV ink layer is significantly improved.

[0081] The second adhesion test procedure was as follows: the coated metal was immersed in boiling water for two hours, and then the first adhesion test was performed again.

[0082] The impact resistance was tested according to GB / T 11548, and a falling weight impact tester was used, a 5 kg falling weight was freely dropped from a certain height to impact the coated metal, and the energy required to cause 50% damage was recorded to calculate the impact resistance.

[0083] The test results are shown in Table 1.

[0084] Table 1 Test Results

[0085] Primary adhesion (pieces) Secondary adhesion (pieces) Impact resistance (J / m) Example 1 100 100 15.3 Example 2 100 99 15.1 Example 3 100 99 15.2 Example 4 100 100 16.7 Example 5 100 100 18.3 Comparative Example 1 88 73 10.3 Comparative Example 2 95 88 11.6

[0086] As shown in Table 1, the test results of the first adhesion of Examples 1 to 5 were 100, and the test results of the second adhesion were 99 to 100, which indicated that the coating layer on the surface of the coated metal prepared by the method provided by the present application had excellent adhesion.

[0087] In Comparative Example 1, a conventional epoxy resin was used, and the test results of the first adhesion of Comparative Example 1 were 88, and the test results of the second adhesion of Comparative Example 1 were 73, which indicated that the adhesion of the coating layer on the surface of the coated metal of Comparative Example 1 was significantly lower than that of Example 1; in Comparative Example 2, a conventional silane coupling agent was used to modify the thermosetting epoxy resin, and the test results of the first adhesion of Comparative Example 2 were 95, and the test results of the second adhesion of Comparative Example 2 were 88, which indicated that the adhesion of the coating layer on the surface of the coated metal of Comparative Example 2 was lower than that of Example 1, and the results indicated that the adhesion of the coating layer on the surface of the coated metal was significantly improved after the thermosetting epoxy resin was modified by the amino silane coupling agent used in the present application, and the effect of the amino silane coupling agent was more significant.

[0088] In addition, from the impact resistance performance results of Example 1, Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, it can be found that the use of the amino silane coupling agent can significantly improve the impact resistance performance of the coating layer on the coated metal surface, and the coated metal can still have excellent protection performance during the collision process.

[0089] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present application, not any limitation on the present application, any simple modification, change and equivalent transformation of the above embodiment according to the technical essence of the present application still belong to the protection scope of the technical solution of the present application.
