Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of aluminum material passivation, in particular to an aluminum honeycomb core passivation device and a passivation method. Background Art

[0002] The aluminum passivation process is a completely chemical reaction. Treating aluminum parts with a passivation solution forms a uniform, dense, protective passivation film on their surfaces. This film primarily serves to extend the aluminum's corrosion and oxidation resistance. This improves the aluminum's salt spray corrosion resistance, greatly facilitating subsequent post-treatments such as electroplating, electrophoresis, anodizing, and spray coating, without affecting the aluminum's inherent electrical conductivity. Aluminum alloy passivation solution can promptly form a uniform, highly protective passivation film on the aluminum surface. It is suitable for corrosion protection of aluminum alloys and aluminum die-castings, forming a transparent, light-colored coating. It can also be used as a pre-treatment for spraying, powder coating, and gluing.

[0003] In the process of passivating a honeycomb core made of aluminum material, the currently used process method is to completely immerse the aluminum honeycomb core to be passivated in a passivation liquid to form a passivation layer. However, the existing passivation method cannot avoid contact between the aluminum honeycomb core and the inner wall of the passivation liquid container, so that a passivation blind spot always exists at the contact point, making the passivation layer thickness of other parts of the aluminum honeycomb core greater than the thickness of the passivation blind spot, resulting in inconsistent thickness of the passivation film layer on the surface of the aluminum honeycomb core, which is not conducive to improving the passivation quality of the aluminum honeycomb core.
