Postopek površinske pasivizacije 5052 aluminijeve zlitine

Predstavitev 5052 aluminum alloy and passivation process

As a non-ferrous metal material with excellent comprehensive properties, aluminum alloy is widely used in aerospace, gradbeništvo, avtomobilski, mechanical equipment and other industries.

5052 aluminijeve zlitine is light in weight and has good weldability, so it is often used in the preparation of aluminum alloy automotive fuel tanks, rezervoarji za shranjevanje plina, operating platforms and other parts in the automobile manufacturing industry. Vendar, the standard electrode potential of aluminum alloy is low, and it is easy to cause micro-battery corrosion in a humid environment (especially in a chlorine-containing humid environment), which seriously affects the corrosion resistance of aluminum alloy materials, and has a negative impact on its service life and engineering applications. have a huge negative impact.

Surface electrochemical treatment and chemical treatment are common methods for aluminum alloy anticorrosion. Med njimi, electrochemical surface treatment of aluminum alloy has the disadvantages of complex equipment and high cost, and chemical passivation treatment has been widely used in recent years because of its low cost and high efficiency. aplikacija.
Za 5052 aluminijeve zlitine, an automotive exterior engineering material, it is still of great significance to seek a simple, low-cost and environmentally friendly corrosion passivation method.
Hexavalent chromium passivation is the most effective and most widely used chemical passivation. Vendar, hexavalent chromium is toxic and carcinogenic, and has been gradually banned by more and more countries. In order to replace hexavalent chromium, researchers have successively developed technologies such as rare earth metal salt passivation, molybdate passivation, silicate passivation, and trivalent chromium salt passivation, med katerimi je mehanizem za tvorjenje filma šestvalentnega kroma enak in netoksičen. Učinkovitost pasiviranja soli trivalentnega kroma je odlična, in najverjetneje bo nadomestil pasivacijo šestvalentne soli.
Čeprav je prejšnjih študij o pasivizaciji trivalentnega kroma več, manj pa se uporablja za aluminijeve zlitine, in ključni zunanji deli avtomobilov iz aluminijeve zlitine imajo višje zahteve glede odpornosti proti koroziji, in trivalentni krom je primeren za dodajanje organskih kompleksirnih sredstev shema barvne pasivacije. Iz tega razloga, na podlagi predhodnih raziskav, to delo izbere metodo kemijske pasivacije soli kromovega sulfata z raziskovalnim potencialom, uporablja dodatek aktivatorja za izboljšanje kakovosti filma, optimizira parametre procesa pasivizacije, and finally successfully develops an application Based on the trivalent chromium passivation process of 5052 aluminijeve zlitine, the passivation film formed is continuous and uniform in silver white, enotne barve, good in gloss, excellent in corrosion resistance, non-polluting to the environment, and has a good application prospect .

Performance testing of passivated surfaces

Exterior

Based on the appearance requirements of automotive exterior parts, visually observe the passivation film formation, such as appearance color changes, film continuity and uniformity, and comprehensively evaluate the appearance quality of the passivation film.

Neutral salt spray test

According to the company’s requirements for 240h salt spray corrosion resistance of automotive aluminum alloy appearance parts, the test is carried out according to the neutral salt spray test (NSS test) method in GB/T10125-2012. The concentration of NaCl solution in the reagent is 5% (masni delež), and the pH value is 6.5-7.2. The pressure of the saturated pressure chamber is 70-170kPa, the salt mist settlement per 80cm2 area is 1-2mL/h, and the test piece is 20° to the vertical direction.

The temperature of the test chamber is kept at (35±2)°C, and the spraying is continued for 10 dni. At the end of the test, wash the surface of the finished product with water and a soft brush, dry it, take pictures with a digital camera, observe the corrosion of the test piece, and according to GB/T12335-1990 “The metal coating is anodic to the substrate after the coating corrosion test”. Specimen Rating”, z izračunom korozijske površine za oceno stopnje korozijskih napak na videzu površine vzorca.

Copper sulfate drop test

Odpornost proti koroziji pasivacijske folije iz aluminijeve zlitine je bila testirana s preskusom padca bakrovega sulfata. Sestava korozijske raztopine bakrovega sulfata je 41 g/l bakrovega sulfata, 35g/LNaCl, 13mL/LHCl. V testu, s kapalko kapnite kapljico korozijske raztopine bakrovega sulfata na površino vzorca pri sobni temperaturi, opazujte spremembo barve kapljice, to je, barva se spremeni iz nebesno modre v črno, in zabeležite čas spremembe barve. Preskus na kraju samem vsakega vzorca vzame povprečno vrednost podatkov 5 različna področja. Dolžina časa lahko odraža prednosti in slabosti korozijske odpornosti pasivacijske folije.

Factors Affecting Passivation Effect

Effect of Chromium Sulfate Concentration on Passive Film

Pri pasivnem testu, kromov sulfat, as a film-forming substance, affects the surface corrosion resistance by affecting the composition and structure of the conversion film.

Macroscopic morphology of aluminum alloy sample

Good film-forming quality depends on the matching between chromium sulfate and surfactant. Due to the increase of chromium sulfate concentration and insufficient amount of surfactant K2ZrF6, the surface activity is weakened, so the bonding between film-forming molecules and the matrix is weakened, making passivation The film forming is not complete, and the film quality becomes poor, which in turn makes the film durable Corrosion decline.

Effect of Potassium Fluozirconate Concentration on Passive Film

K2ZrF6 is used as the surface active component in the passivation solution, and its concentration also has an important influence on the film quality. Pri pasivnem testu, the main function of potassium fluorozirconate is to reduce the surface tension of aluminum alloy, activate the surface of the alloy, promote the full reaction of chromium sulfate and the substrate to form a uniform and dense film, and improve its corrosion resistance.

Effect of passivation time on passivation film

The passivation time mainly affects the thickness of the conversion film, and as an industrial application, an appropriate passivation time can reduce costs and save resources.

Summary of passivation process for 5052 aluminijeve zlitine

• (1) Based on the 5052 aluminum alloy sample, the optimum conditions for chemical passivation of chromium sulfate are: chromium sulfate 1.0g/L, potassium fluozirconate 2.5g/L, passivation time 3min, the passivation prepared under this condition The surface of the film has high gloss, uniform color and high corrosion resistance, meeting the requirements of 240h salt spray.
• (2) In the chromium sulfate passivation test, kromov sulfat, as a film-forming substance, mainly affects the composition and structure of the conversion film and makes the aluminum alloy surface in a passivation state. Its concentration must match the concentration of the activator potassium fluozirconate. If the chromium concentration is too high, the corrosion resistance of the passivation film will be affected. The main function of potassium fluorozirconate is to reduce the surface tension of aluminum alloy, activate the surface of the alloy, and promote the full reaction of chromium sulfate and the matrix. The concentration of potassium fluorozirconate is too low to play its role.
• (3) The passivation time mainly affects the film thickness of the passivation film and the degree of passivation reaction. If the time is too short, the reaction will not be sufficient, and the film-forming quality will be poor; if the time is too long, the film will be too thick, which will affect the appearance quality such as surface color and waste resources.
