Abstract
Description
[0001] The application claims the priority of the Chinese patent application filed with the China National Intellectual Property Administration on August 16, 2023, with the application number CN2023110390474 and the title "Shipping Container, Powder Protective Coating for Shipping Container and Construction Process Thereof', the entire contents of which are incorporated into the application by reference.TECHNICAL FIELD
[0002] The application relates to the field of material technology, in particular to a zinc-free primer, a shipping container, a powder protective coating and a construction process thereof.BACKGROUND
[0003] Traditional container protection using water-based paint coating consumes a large amount of organic solvents and generates a large amount of wastewater and waste residue, and the pollution problem has been plaguing the industry.
[0004] In the container field, GENUIN has successfully developed powder coatings for containers in 2022. After the official announcement in August 2022, nearly 30,000 TEU containers have been produced, and a group standard has been formed. At present, the protective coating system for cold-rolled steel plates of containers used by the applicant comprises a first layer of zinc-rich primer with a thickness of more than 35 microns, followed by spraying of a base coat and a top coat.
[0005] Specifically, when producing containers using metal plates such as cold-rolled steel plates, the surface of the cold-rolled steel plates has a small amount of oil stains due to process reasons when leaving the factory. Therefore, the cold-rolled steel plates must undergo pre-treatment before cold working: first, degrease the surface of the steel plates (acid or alkali degreasing), then clean, dry (air-dry or hot air), perform shot blasting, and pre-coat with zinc-rich primer. After the pre-treatment is completed, enter cold working (punching, shearing and pressing forming), perform steel structure assembly and welding, and after shot blasting cleaning of the welded seams, perform the entire container coating operation (comprising painting, powder spraying, and the like).
[0006] In practical use, although the performance of the containers produced by the above spraying method is superior to that of the containers produced by the previous water-based paint method, the pre-treatment process of cold-rolled steel plates before cold working has the following problems: 1. There is the problem of sewage treatment; 2. The zinc-rich primer is an oil-based paint (non-water-based), which has the problem of VOC emissions. The above two points bring hidden dangers of non-compliance with environmental protection standards. At the same time, the applicant found that for containers with high corrosion resistance requirements for maritime transportation, once corrosion occurs, the corrosion spread is serious.

[0033] The application further improves and optimizes the powder coating system and develops a zinc-free pre-treatment primer. A high-solid oil paint is used, and a non-metallic conductive material is used instead of metallic zinc. Through the above settings, compared with the prior art, since no metallic zinc is contained, the corrosion spread phenomenon can be reduced.
[0034] Since the first layer uses high-solid oil paint and non-metallic conductive material, and the non-metallic conductive material is used instead of metallic zinc, on the one hand, the conductivity can be guaranteed, which is beneficial to the subsequent spraying. At the same time, the corrosion spread phenomenon can be reduced. At the same time, since the non-metallic conductive material and the high-solid oil paint are mixed more fully, the first layer can be made thinner, and its corrosion resistance is more excellent. Since the A1 layer is formed before the container is assembled, and subsequent welding and assembly are required to form the container, the weldability must be guaranteed. Adding non-metallic conductive material improves the conductivity of the A1 layer to avoid affecting the welding.
[0035] Since it does not contain metallic materials, the adhesion of the powder is better, which is more conducive to subsequent spraying. Through practical verification, the zinc-free pre-treatment primer fully meets the requirements of rust prevention between processes. The adhesion between the zinc-free pre-treatment primer and the powder is better, the corrosion spread is superior to that of water-based paint, and the welding performance is consistent with that of the zinc-rich primer. At the same time, the cost of the zinc-free pre-treatment primer is lower than that of the zinc-rich primer, and the weight is lighter.
[0036] In the construction process of the application, laser derusting is adopted for pre-treatment, which avoids sewage discharge. High-solid oil paint is used, which effectively reduces VOC emissions. Compared with the prior art, its thickness is greatly reduced, saving materials, and its environmental protection effect is good.
[0037] The application breaks the tradition of using zinc-rich primer in the current container field, creatively adopts zinc-free primer, so that the A1 layer and the B1 layer do not contain zinc, and uses non-metallic conductive materials to ensure conductivity. Therefore, when corrosion occurs, there is no generation of zinc salts, thereby avoiding the separation phenomenon between the bottom layer and the substrate caused by volume expansion, thereby reducing the corrosion spread phenomenon and prolonging the service life.

[0045] In order to enable those skilled in the art to use the content of the application, the following exemplary embodiments may be given in combination with specific application scenarios, specific system parameters, device and component parameters, and specific connection methods. However, for those skilled in the art, these embodiments are only examples, and the general principles defined herein can be applied to other embodiments and application scenarios without departing from the spirit and scope of the application.
[0046] The application provides a powder protective coating for a shipping container. The container comprises an inner surface of the container and an outer surface of the container. At least part of the container is processed from a metal plate.
[0047] The metal plate forming the inner surface of the container is provided with at least a three-layer coating structure of A1 layer, A2 layer and A3 layer: the material of the A1 layer comprises a high-solid oil paint and a non-metallic conductive material; the A1 layer does not contain metallic zinc; the material of the A2 layer is epoxy powder; the material of the A3 layer is epoxy powder.
[0048] And / or, the metal plate forming the outer surface of the container is provided with at least a three-layer coating structure of B1 layer, B2 layer and B3 layer: the material of the B1 layer comprises a high-solid oil paint and a non-metallic conductive material; the B1 layer does not contain metallic zinc; the material of the B2 layer is epoxy powder; the material of the B3 layer is polyester powder.
[0049] It should be noted that existing container manufacturing enterprises, primer suppliers and powder suppliers are all upstream and downstream supply relationships, and generally the three are different production enterprises. At present, containers in the prior art generally use zinc-rich primer as the bottom coating, and powder suppliers basically do not improve or research the zinc-rich primer for containers. The main function of the primer is to provide temporary protection for the intermediate plates used in container production before the powder coating is applied. The corrosion resistance of the terminal container products basically relies on the intermediate paint and topcoat to achieve corrosion protection. Therefore, when corrosion problems occur in the terminal container products, container manufacturing enterprises generally think that the corrosion is caused by the intermediate paint or topcoat. Therefore, when those skilled in the art are faced with the overall coating scheme formed by the powder coating and the zinc-rich primer of the container, it is difficult to find that the composition of the zinc-rich primer affects the corrosion spread resistance of the powder coating, and only thinks that the powder coating itself has problems.
[0050] The applicant of the application creatively found that after research and analysis, the applicant found that the serious corrosion spread of current shipping containers is due to the use of zinc-rich primer. When corrosion occurs, a large amount of zinc powder in the zinc-rich primer changes to form zinc salts, and the generation of zinc salts leads to the volume expansion of the primer. However, the single powder coating formed on the box body is extremely dense and cannot accommodate the volume-expanded zinc salts, which leads to the separation of the powder coating from the box body and the phenomenon of "blistering" of the powder coating in pieces. And as the zinc powder continues to corrode, the "blistering" will continue to extend.
[0051] Zinc powder reacts with chloride ions in chlorides to form zinc salt zinc chloride, that is, zinc ions are formed.
[0052] Zinc ions continue to react in the environment of oxygen, water and carbon dioxide to generate basic zinc carbonate. Basic zinc carbonate is a powdery substance insoluble in water and alcohol.
[0053] The specific reaction formulas are as follows: Zn + 2Cl -< →ZnCl 2 , Zn 2+< +O 2 +H 2 O+CO 2 →ZnCO 3 ·Zn(OH) 2 .
[0054] At the same time, the applicant found that compared with the zinc-free system, the surface coating of the zinc-rich primer has a risk of quality degradation when combined with the subsequent powder coating. Therefore, the application provides A1 layer and / or B1 layer without zinc to eliminate the generation of zinc salts, thereby reducing the corrosion spread phenomenon.

[0094] In the entire protective coating, the epoxy group of the A1 layer can react with the polyester carboxyl group in the A2 layer to realize the connection between A1 and A2 layers through chemical bonding, and the carboxyl group of the polyester resin in the A2 layer can react with the epoxy group in the A3 layer to realize the connection between A2 and A3 layers through chemical bonding.
[0095] The epoxy group in the B1 layer can react with the polyester carboxyl group in the B2 layer to realize the connection between B1 and B2 layers through chemical bonding, and the carboxyl group of the polyester resin in the B2 layer can react with the curing agent of the B3 layer to realize the connection between B2 and B3 layers through chemical bonding.
[0096] Therefore, the interlayer bonding force of the entire protective coating is strong. In the adhesion pull-off test, the breaking strength reaches more than 10MPa, and the entire protective coating partially falls off from the substrate without interlayer blistering.
[0097] After the A1 layer and the B1 layer are formed on the substrate, they protect the substrate through physical isolation and can meet the requirement of temporary protection for the substrate. The interior of the container product is corrosion-resistant through the A2 layer and A3 layer, and the exterior of the container is corrosion-resistant through the B2 layer and B3 layer.
[0098] The A1 layer is formed by coating before the metal plate forms the container. the A2 layer and the A3 layer are formed by spraying after forming the container body.
[0099] And / or, the B1 layer is formed by coating before the metal plate forms the container. The B2 and B3 layers are formed by spraying after forming the container body.
[0100] The thickness of the A1 layer is less than the thickness of the A2 layer and the A3 layer.
[0101] Preferably, the thickness of the A1 layer is 8-12 microns. When the thickness is less than 8 microns, the corrosion spread performance is poor. When the thickness is greater than 12 microns, the cost increases. The thickness of the A2 layer is 37-43 microns, and the thickness of the A3 layer is 38-43 microns. When the thickness of the A2 layer is less than 37 microns, the corrosion resistance is poor. When the thickness of the A2 layer is greater than 43 microns, the cost increases. When the thickness of the A3 layer is less than 38 microns, the corrosion resistance is poor. When the thickness of the A3 layer is greater than 43 microns, the cost increases.
[0102] And / or, the thickness of the B1 layer is less than the thickness of the B2 and B3 layers.
[0103] Preferably, the thickness of the B1 layer is 8-12 microns, the thickness of the B2 layer is 37-43 microns, and the thickness of the B3 layer is 44-46 microns.
[0104] The solid content ratio of the high-solid oil paint in the A1 layer is not less than 60%, and the content of the non-metallic conductive material ranges from 0.5% to 10% by weight of the high-solid oil paint.
[0105] And / or, the solid content ratio of the high-solid oil paint in the B1 layer is not less than 60%, and the content of the non-metallic conductive material ranges from 0.5% to 10% by weight of the high-solid oil paint.
[0106] The non-metallic conductive material in the A1 and B1 layers is graphite, and the content of graphite is approximately 2%.
[0107] The solid content ratio of the high-solid oil paint in the A1 and B1 layers is 70%, and the content of the non-metallic conductive material is 5% by weight of the high-solid oil paint.
[0108] The application also provides a construction method of a protective coating for engineering equipment, comprising the following steps: S1. Performing laser derusting and / or abrasive blasting on the metal plate. S2. Performing hot coating application: applying the A1 layer and the B1 layer after heating the coating material or the plate.
[0109] Specifically, when the thickness of the metal plate is greater than 4mm, heat the metal plate to ≥85 °C.
[0110] When the thickness of the metal plate is less than 4mm, it is usually heated to 85 °C.
[0111] The temperature for heating the coating is 40 °C.
[0112] S3. Drying or air-drying, wherein the air-drying adopts hot air.
[0113] S4. Processing the metal sheet, followed by welding, to form the container body..
[0114] S5. Performing abrasive blasting on the welded seams of the entire box.
[0115] S6. Spraying the A2 layer and B2 layer; spraying the A3 layer and B3 layer.
[0116] S7. Curing and cooling.
[0117] The application also provides a shipping container, comprising the above-mentioned protective coating; or adopting the above-mentioned construction process.
[0118] The above protective coatings are introduced through various examples below.Example 1
[0119] Step 1: Perform derusting on the metal sheet, followed by fine abrasive blasting treatment to achieve a surface roughness between 15-35 micrometers. The derusting process employs laser derusting, which avoids pollution compared to conventional methods.
[0120] Step 2: Roller coating: Apply a first layer of high-solid solvent-based paint to the metal sheet with a thickness of 10 micrometers. The high-solid solvent-based paint has a solid content ratio of not less than 60%, mixed with 2% graphite to ensure uniformity. Hot roller coating may be used, with a temperature maintained at or above 40 °C.
[0121] Step 3: Air-dry the coated metal sheet.
[0122] Step 4: Process the dried metal sheet to form the container body.
[0123] Step 5: Remove the oxide layer from welded seams of the entire container.
[0124] Step 6: Two-layer powder spraying: First apply the primer powder, followed by the topcoat powder. The inner base powder of the box is 40 microns, which is epoxy powder; the outer base powder of the box is 40 microns, which is epoxy powder; the outer top powder of the box is 45 microns, which is polyester powder; the inner top powder of the box is 40 microns, which is epoxy powder.
[0125] Step 7: Cure and cool.
[0126] The metal plate of the container of the application can be cold-rolled steel plate or hot-rolled steel plate. The protective coating system comprises three layers. The first layer, the base coat, is about 10 microns thick. The base coat thickness reduces the high-solid oil paint; compared with the existing base coat of 35 microns, it greatly reduces the usage of oil-based paint and can significantly reduce VOC emissions.
[0127] Optionally, the solid content ratio of the high-solid oil paint of the application is not less than 60%. The application adopts a solid content ratio of not less than 60%, which can greatly reduce VOC emissions compared with the existing solid content ratio of about 40%.
[0128] The zinc content of the application is zero: non-metallic conductive material is used to replace the original zinc. On the one hand, the conductivity of non-metallic is used, and on the other hand, the non-metallic conductive material itself has less pollution. The non-metallic conductive material can be graphite, and the like. For example, graphite is used to replace the original zinc material. On the one hand, the conductivity can be guaranteed, and on the other hand, the corrosion resistance can be improved. Optionally, the proportion of the non-metallic conductive material of the application is between 0.5% and 10%, and the surface resistance of the base coat is 102 ohms to 109 ohms. In this example, the solid content ratio is 70%, and the proportion of the non-metallic conductive material is 5%.
[0129] The second layer, about 40 microns thick, is epoxy powder. Materials that meet FDA requirements are used. Since the thickness of the first layer is significantly smaller than that of the existing first layer, in order to ensure the quality after coating, the application appropriately increases the thickness of the second layer to 40 microns.
[0130] The third layer, the outer thickness of the box is about 45 microns, which is polyester powder; the inner thickness of the box is about 40 microns, which is epoxy powder; it meets FDA requirements: the application appropriately increases the spraying thickness of the outer box, thereby further ensuring the corrosion resistance effect after coating.
[0131] The powder coating of the application not only has excellent environmental performance, but also has comprehensive advantages in process stability and coating quality compared with traditional coating processes.Example 2
[0132] Example 2 has the same steps as Example 1, except that the thickness of the first layer coating is 10 microns, the thickness of the second layer is 43 microns, and the thickness of the third layer is 43 microns for the inner box and 46 microns for the outer box.Example 3

Using cold-rolled steel plates of the same material, same thickness and same size, test pieces were made by the construction process of the application under the same conditions using the protective coatings of Examples 4-15 and Comparative Examples 2-5 respectively.
[0194] Make the same T-shaped lines on test pieces 1, 2, 3 and 4. The specific way to make the T-shaped lines is: Draw T-shaped lines on the test piece with a blade to the bottom, and the lengths of the T-shaped lines are 50mm and 76mm respectively.

[0196] Put test pieces 1, 2, 3 and 4 into the same salt spray test chamber at the same time, and take them out after 1000 hours. Among them, in the test chamber: the concentration of the settled salt solution: 5% sodium chloride solution by mass fraction, the temperature of the test chamber: (35 ± 2) °C, the pH value of the settled salt solution: 6.5 ~ 7.2 (25 °C).
[0197] Put the test pieces of Examples 4-15 and Comparative Examples 2-5 into the same salt spray test chamber at the same time, and take them out after 1000 hours.

[0198] The results are shown in FIGS. 1-4. After measurement, the test results of corrosion spread resistance are shown in Table 1, where the corrosion width is the average width. Table 1Examples and Comparative ExamplesCorrosion WidthExample 11.64mmExample 21.70mmExample 31.60mmExample 41.75mmExample 51.59mmExample 61.62mmExample 71.60mmExample 81.69mmExample 91.72mmExample 102.36mmExample 111.62mmExample 121.59mmExample 131.55mmExample 141.64mmExample 151.68mmComparative Example 12.92mmComparative Example 22.52mmComparative Example 32.64mmComparative Example 43.10mmComparative Example 52.98mm
[0199] From the test results, it can be seen that the corrosion spread resistance of the application is significantly superior to that of the prior art. Among them, the corrosion width of Sample 4 is more than 1.8 times that of Sample 3. Moreover, from the overall corrosion effect of the samples, the corrosion of Sample 4 is significantly more severe than that of the application. That is, the thickness of the application is significantly lower than the spraying thickness in the prior art, and its corrosion resistance is significantly superior to that of the prior art. In particular, its corrosion spread resistance is significantly better than that of the prior art.
[0200] The corrosion widths of Examples 4-15 are obviously smaller than those of Comparative Examples 2-5. Therefore, the corrosion resistance of Examples 4-15 is obviously superior to that of the prior art.
[0201] Combining FIGS. 5-7 and FIG. 11, it can be clearly observed that the corrosion of Comparative Example 2 is more severe. Combining FIGS. 8-10 and FIG. 12, it can be clearly observed that the corrosion of Comparative Example 3 is more severe. Therefore, the use of the zinc-free primer in the application can avoid the accelerated corrosion spread caused by zinc and ensure the corrosion resistance of the entire protective coating.
[0202] Corrosion spread resistance is a very important parameter for shipping containers. Due to transportation at sea, the natural conditions are harsh. Containers often rub and collide with each other due to sea waves, which are very likely to cause partial wear of the containers. Therefore, there are extremely high requirements for corrosion spread resistance. The application not only uses fewer materials but also has significantly better corrosion spread resistance than existing products. In addition, the construction process of the present invention avoids sewage discharge, reduces VOC emissions, and has a good environmental protection effect.
