Description
'~ -1- 20 27402 PRETREATING COMPOSITION CONTAINING S-TRIAZINE COMPOUND
Background of the Inv~ntion 4 Field of the Invention: The present invention relates to a pretreatment composition whlch i5 free of chromic acid; said compositlon 6 is particularly useful as a final rinse in a metal pretreatment process.
8 Brief DescriRtion of the Prior Art In the metal pretreatment process, it is known to employ a 10 phosphating conversion coating which is usually followed by a final rinsing or sealing step. The rinsing composition usually comprises 12 chromic acld. While effective in the rinsing step, chrom~c acid is, nonetheles6, undesirable because of its toxicity and the attendant 14 problems of disposal.
Hence, considerable work has been done in finding a 16 replacement for chromic acid in the final rinsing step. The present invention pro~ides a pretreatment compo6ition which is essentially free 18 of chromic acid.
Summary of the Invention In accordance with the foregoing, the present invention 22 encompasses an aqueous composition comprising an S-triazine having at least one hydroxyl group on a carbon atom of the triazine ring 24 (hereinafter "S-triazine compound") adapted for use for pretreating a ferrous or non-ferrous metal surface. The aqueous composltion of the 26 S-triazine compound contains at least about O.Ol percent by weight or higher of the S-triazine compound based on the total weight of the 28 composition, and can have a pH of about 3.4 to 6 and a temperature typically from about 30~C to 80~C. The S-triazine compound is preferably cyanuric acid.
The in~ention further encompa6ses a process of pretreat~ng a metal 6urface comprlsing applying an effective aqueous composition of 32 the S-triazlne compound to the metal surface to produce a corrosion re6istant surface that can adhere to a subsequently applied coating.
34 Preferably, the aqueous composition of the S-triazine compound is employed as a final rinse o~er a metal surface comprising a conversion 36 coating such as a phosphate conversion coating.
20~7~02 ._ Detailed Description of the Invention 2 The S-triazine compound or a modification thereof which, useful herein, is one that enolizes in a manner that renders the aqueous 4 composition containing the same acidic. While not desiring to be bound to any particular theory, it is believed that the enolized form of the 6 S-triazine compound is reactable with the metal surface. The enol form of the preferred S-triazine compound is commonly referred to as cyanuric 8 acid. In accordance with this invention, the S-triazine compound or a modification thereof useful herein is characterized as having at least 10 one hydroxyl group on a carbon atom of the triazine ring.
The useful S-triazine compound must be compatible with an 12 aqueous medium, i.e., it is mixable to produce an effective aqueous composition that can be applied to a substrate to produce a corrosion 14 resistant surface that can adhere to a subsequently applied coating.
Typically, it must have solubility of at least about 0.01 gram per 100 16 grams of water at 25~C. The aqueous composition of this invention can be prepared by mixing the S-triazine compound with an aqueous medium, 18 preferably at a temperature of about 30~C to 80~C and more preferably about 40~C to 80~C. By an aqueous medium is meant water or water in 20 combination with an adjuvant that can enhance the solubility of the S-triazine compound. The aqueous composition may also contain an 22 additive such as a pH buffer, phosphate, borate, potassium salt or the like or a mixture thereof.
24 Accordingly, the aqueous pretreating composition of this invention can have a pH of about 3.4 to 6 and preferably about 4.0 to 26 5Ø The composition can contain about 0.01 to 0.2 percent by weight and preferably about 0.05 to 0.15 percent by weight of the S-triazine 28 compound based on the total weight of the composition. While higher amounts of the S-triazine compound can be employed in the aqueous 30 composition, it does not appear that there is an improvement in performance of such a composition. However, under certain 32 circumstances, the higher concentration in the form of a concentrate may be desirable, for reasons such as ease of handling.

The temperature of the aqueous compo6ition at ~hich a substrate i8 treated therewith is typically from about 30~C to 80~C
6 and preferably about 40~C to 60~C. The pH of the-treating composition during application i8 typically about 3.4 to 6 and preferably about 4 8 to 5Ø
In the process of this invention, the aqueous composition of 10 the S-triazine compound iB employed in treating a ferrous or non-ferrous metal such a8 cold rolled steel, galvanized steel or the like.
12 Preferably, the aqueous composition is applied to a metal surface comprising a conversion coating such as a phosphated conversion 14 coating; a zinc phosphate conver~ion coating is preferret herein. The aqueous composition contn~n~ng the S-triazine compound i8 applied to 16 the metal surface by spraying, immersion or any other convenient means. After the aqueous composition has been applied, the metal is 18 usually rinsed with deionized water and then coated with a surface coating, usually after it has been dried.
In a typical pretreatment process, the metal to be treated i8 cleaned by a physical or chemical means and water rinsed in order to 22 remove surface contamination such as grease or dirt. The metal surface iB then brought into contact with a conversion coating composition, 24 rinsed with water and then rinsed with the composition of this invention. After the application of the aqueous solution of the 26 S-triazine compound with rinsing and drying, the ferrous or non-ferrous metal can be coated by any convenient means. It has been found that 28 the pretreatment process of the metal with the aqueous composition of the S-triazine compound imparts to the coated substrate improved 30 adhesion and corrosion resistance properties.
The invention iB further illustrated by the following 32 non-limiting examples.
