Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of metal surface treatment, specifically to the direction of pickling corrosion chemical preparation, and particularly relates to a high-efficiency metal corrosion accelerator and application. The compound can significantly accelerate the corrosion rate of metal in an acidic environment, is suitable for efficient pickling treatment of metals such as carbon steel, and has the characteristics of high promotion efficiency, good stability, and simple operation. BACKGROUND
[0002] Pickling is a common surface treatment process in metal processing, mainly used to remove impurities such as oxide scale, rust, and welding oxides on the metal surface to improve the cleanliness of the metal surface and the quality of subsequent coating, plating, welding, and other processes. Traditional pickling processes usually use inorganic acids (such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, etc.) as the main cleaning medium to dissolve the oxides on the metal surface through the corrosion of the acid. However, using inorganic acids alone for pickling has the problems of low processing efficiency, long pickling time, large consumption of acid, easy over-corrosion of the metal substrate or hydrogen embrittlement, and other issues, which seriously affect production efficiency and material performance.
[0003] To improve the efficiency of pickling, it is common in industry to add pickling accelerators (or pickling accelerators) to enhance the ability of the acid to remove oxides on the metal surface. Currently, the common pickling accelerators on the market mainly include halogen ion type, organic sulfide, and surfactant types. For example, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, and other halide salts can accelerate localized corrosion through the penetration of chloride ions, but their promotion effect is limited, and they can introduce chloride ion residues, exacerbating equipment corrosion and environmental burden. Certain sulfur-containing compounds (such as thiourea, mercaptobenzothiazole, etc.) have some promotion effect, but they can easily decompose and lose effectiveness at high temperatures and high acid concentrations, and can produce toxic gases, limiting their widespread application. Surfactant-type accelerators mainly improve pickling effects through wetting and penetration, but have weak corrosion promotion effect on the base metal, making it difficult to achieve efficient and rapid cleaning.
[0004] On the other hand, existing pickling accelerators mainly focus on "removing oxides" while trying to "inhibit base corrosion", which has some contradictions with the actual needs of metal pickling. Especially in some special processes (such as metal regeneration treatment, scrap recovery, and rapid rust removal before rough machining), the metal substrate needs to be rapidly and massively corroded, and traditional pickling agents cannot meet the needs of efficient corrosion. Therefore, developing a new type of pickling accelerator that can actively and controllably promote the corrosion of the metal substrate has important industrial application value.
[0005] O,O'-di(methyl)dithiophosphoric acid diethyl ammonium is an organic phosphorus ammonium salt compound, which contains active elements such as phosphorus, sulfur and nitrogen in the structure, and has good metal coordination and interfacial activity. In the prior art, such compounds are mostly used in the fields of pesticides, lubricating oil additives and the like, and no related report is found as pickling accelerators. The present application first finds that the compound shows a significant corrosion promotion effect on metals such as carbon steel in an acidic environment, can greatly improve the pickling rate and shorten the treatment time, and has good popularization prospect due to simple synthesis, high stability and good environmental adaptability.
[0006] In summary, it is of great significance to develop a new type of efficient pickling accelerator, especially a compound capable of actively promoting metal corrosion, for improving the efficiency and economy of metal pickling process. Based on the above background, the present application proposes the application of O,O'-di(methyl)dithiophosphoric acid diethyl ammonium as a pickling accelerator, which fills the gap in this technical field. SUMMARY
[0007] The present application aims to provide an efficient metal corrosion accelerator and application. The O,O'-di(methyl)dithiophosphoric acid diethyl ammonium can greatly accelerate the corrosion rate of metal, thereby effectively shortening the pickling time and improving the production efficiency.
[0008] In order to achieve the above-mentioned application purposes, the present application provides the following technical solutions: The present application provides the application of O,O'-di(methyl)dithiophosphoric acid diethyl ammonium as a pickling accelerator.
[0009] Preferably, the effective concentration of the O,O'-di(methyl)dithiophosphoric acid diethyl ammonium is 0.04-100 mmol / L.
[0010] The present application also provides a method for preparing a pickling solution, comprising the following steps: O,O'-di(methyl)dithiophosphoric acid diethyl ammonium is added to inorganic acid to obtain the pickling solution.
[0011] Preferably, the molar concentration ratio of the O,O'-di(methyl)dithiophosphoric acid diethyl ammonium to the inorganic acid is 0.04-100 mmol / L: 0.1-1 mol / L.
[0012] Preferably, the inorganic acid is one or more of hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, acetic acid, hydrofluoric acid, nitric acid and carbonic acid.
[0013] The present application also provides a pickling method, comprising the following steps: The metal to be treated is added to the pickling solution and soaked to obtain the pickled metal; or The pickling solution is sprayed onto the surface of the metal to be treated to obtain the pickled metal.
[0014] Preferably, the temperature of the soaking or spraying is 30~50℃, the soaking or spraying time is 0.1~4h, and the metal to be treated includes low carbon steel.
[0015] More preferably, the low-carbon steel includes one of Q195, Q215, Q235, Q255 and Q275.
[0016] This invention also provides the application of O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate diethylammonium in the preparation of pickling additives.
[0017] Preferably, the effective concentration of the O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate diethylammonium is 0.04~100 mmol / L.
[0018] The beneficial effects of this invention compared to the prior art are as follows: This invention employs O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate diethylammonium as a novel pickling accelerator, characterized by high efficiency, stable pickling promotion performance, and simple synthesis. It also has a wide range of applications and promising prospects. The most significant feature of the pickling accelerator provided by this invention is its ability to greatly accelerate the corrosion rate of metals during acidic corrosion processes. This characteristic significantly improves the efficiency of metal pickling, rapidly removing oxide scale, rust, and other impurities from metal surfaces. It is particularly suitable for production scenarios with high pickling efficiency requirements, effectively shortening pickling time and improving production progress. Compared with similar products on the market, it has a clear advantage in corrosion promotion effect, better meeting the high-efficiency processing needs of various industries in metal processing.
[0019] The O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate diethylammonium is suitable for surface pickling of various metal materials, covering key processes such as metal raw material pretreatment, deep cleaning of metal products, and surface optimization of metal components. Whether it's metal sheets, pipes, profiles, or complex metal parts, O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate diethylammonium can improve pickling efficiency and quality, laying a solid foundation for subsequent processing, coating, welding, and other procedures, and promoting the upgrading of the metal pickling industry towards more efficient and refined processing.
[0020] The pickling accelerator provided by this invention can act on intact metal surfaces (free from oxidation, dirt, etc.) and greatly accelerate the rate of corrosion on the metal surface in acidic solutions. The technical effect of this invention is the opposite of that of conventional pickling agents (conventional agents "inhibit substrate corrosion," while this invention "promotes substrate corrosion").
[0021] Meanwhile, the pickling accelerator provided by this invention is designed for specific scenarios (such as scenarios where the substrate does not need to be preserved and the surface of intact metal needs to be rapidly corroded), and can significantly accelerate the corrosion rate of intact metal under acidic conditions, which is significantly different from the 'corrosion inhibition' logic of conventional pickling agents.

The test results are shown in Table 1.
[0043] Table 1 Corrosion properties of pickling solutions at different pickling temperatures (corrosion acceleration rate / %)
[0044] The results showed that as the concentration of O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate diethylammonium increased, the corrosion performance of the acidic solution on carbon steel gradually increased, and the acidic solution exhibited the best corrosion performance at low temperatures.
[0045] Experimental Example 2 The corrosion acceleration rate of the pickling solution prepared in Example 2 on carbon steel Q235 was investigated at a pickling temperature of 30℃. During the test, the weight loss test of the coated plates was conducted according to the methods described in "JB / T 7901-2023 Laboratory Uniform Corrosion Full Immersion Test Method for Metallic Materials" and "SY / T 5405-2019 Performance Test Method and Evaluation Index of Corrosion Inhibitors for Acidification"; electrochemical tests were conducted according to the methods described in "DL / T523-2017 Application Performance Evaluation Index and Test Method of Chemical Cleaning Corrosion Inhibitors". The test results are shown in Table 2.
[0046] Table 2 Corrosive properties of pickling solutions
[0047] The results showed that at 30℃, the pickling effect of pickling solutions containing different concentrations of O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate diethylammonium varied significantly, with the 0.8 mmol / L solution exhibiting the best corrosion performance and pickling effect.
[0048] Experimental Example 3 The corrosion acceleration rate of the pickling solution prepared in Example 3 on carbon steel Q235 was investigated at a pickling temperature of 30℃.

The test results are shown in Table 3.
[0049] Table 3 Corrosive properties of pickling solutions
[0050] The results showed that when the concentration of O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate diethylammonium in the pickling solution increased to a certain level, the pickling effect of the pickling solution would be significantly reduced.
[0051] Test Example 4 The corrosion acceleration rate of the pickling solution and hydrochloric acid solution (without O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate diethylammonium) prepared in Example 4 on carbon steel Q235 was investigated at a pickling temperature of 30℃. During the test, the weight loss experiment of the coated steel sheets was conducted according to the methods described in "JB / T 7901-2023 Laboratory Uniform Corrosion Full Immersion Test Method for Metallic Materials" and "SY / T 5405-2019 Test Method and Evaluation Index for Performance of Corrosion Inhibitors for Acidification". The experiment lasted for 4 hours. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and EDS were used to test the corroded low-carbon steel sheets. A freshly polished low-carbon steel sample was used as a control. The results are as follows: Figures 1 to 12 As shown.
[0052] Depend on Figures 1 to 6 It can be seen that the surface of the freshly polished low-carbon steel sample is very smooth, with only scratches left by sandpaper polishing. Observation of the surface morphology of the low-carbon steel in hydrochloric acid solution revealed that due to the corrosive effect of hydrochloric acid, the surface of the low-carbon steel was uneven, showing obvious wavy corrosion marks, but the scratches left by sandpaper polishing were still visible. In contrast, in the hydrochloric acid solution containing diethylammonium di(methyl)dithiophosphate, the corrosion of the low-carbon steel sample by hydrochloric acid was significantly enhanced, and with the increase of the concentration of the added corrosion accelerator, the degree of corrosion of the sample intensified, and obvious deep corrosion pits appeared.
[0053] Depend on Figures 7 to 12It can be seen that, compared with the surface of a freshly polished low-carbon steel sample, the C and O content of the sample surface increased significantly after corrosion in hydrochloric acid solution. In hydrochloric acid solution with added O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate diethylammonium, the C and O content of the sample surface increased further after the low-carbon steel sample was eroded by hydrochloric acid, indicating a significant acceleration of corrosion; and with the increase of O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate diethylammonium concentration in the pickling solution, the degree of corrosion of the sample intensified, and the C and O content of the sample surface increased accordingly.
[0054] Experimental Example 5 The corrosion acceleration rate of carbon steel Q235 was investigated at a pickling temperature of 25℃ for pickling solutions with effective concentrations of 0.04, 0.2, and 0.8 mmol / L prepared in Example 3, as well as for hydrochloric acid solutions without added O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate diethylammonium, after standing for 0, 24, 48, and 72 h. Electrochemical tests were performed according to the methods described in "DL / T 523-2017 Evaluation Indicators and Test Methods for Application Performance of Chemical Cleaning Corrosion Inhibitors". The results are shown in Table 4.
[0055] Table 4. Stability test results of pickling solution
[0056] The results showed that the corrosion effect on low-carbon steel decreased with increasing standing time of the pickling solution. However, the addition of diethylammonium O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate maintained the pickling effect on low-carbon steel and even promoted the degree of pickling corrosion. After standing for 72 hours, the effect of diethylammonium O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate did not decrease, indicating that diethylammonium O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate is stable in the pickling solution.
[0057] As can be seen from the above embodiments, the present invention provides a highly efficient metal corrosion accelerator and its application. Adding O,O′-di(methyl)dithiophosphate diethylammonium during the acidic corrosion process of metals can significantly accelerate the corrosion rate. This invention lays a solid foundation for subsequent processing, coating, welding, and other procedures of metal materials, and promotes the upgrading of the metal pickling industry towards more efficient and refined processing.
[0058] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
