DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0012] For purposes of the following detailed description, it is to be understood that the disclosure may assume various alternative variations and step sequences, except where expressly specified to the contrary. Moreover, other than in any operating examples, or where otherwise indicated, all numbers such as those expressing values, amounts, percentages, ranges, subranges and fractions may be read as if prefaced by the word "about," even if the term does not expressly appear. Accordingly, unless indicated to the contrary, the numerical parameters set forth in the following specification and attached claims are approximations that may vary depending upon the desired properties to be obtained by the present disclosure. At the very least, and not as an attempt to limit the application of the doctrine of equivalents to the scope of the claims, each numerical parameter should at least be construed in light of the number of reported significant digits and by applying ordinary rounding techniques. Where a closed or open-ended numerical range is described herein, all numbers, values, amounts, percentages, subranges and fractions within or encompassed by the numerical range are to be considered as being specifically included in and belonging to the original disclosure of this application as if these numbers, values, amounts, percentages, subranges and fractions had been explicitly written out in their entirety.
[0013] Notwithstanding that the numerical ranges and parameters setting forth the broad scope of the disclosure are approximations, the numerical values set forth in the specific examples are reported as precisely as possible. Any numerical value, however, inherently contains certain errors necessarily resulting from the standard variation found in their respective testing measurements.
[0014] As used herein, unless indicated otherwise, a plural term can encompass its singular counterpart and vice versa, unless indicated otherwise. For example, although reference is made herein to -a" conversion composition, -a" cleaning composition, and -a" a yield stress component, a combination (i.e., a plurality) of these components can be used.
In addition, in this application, the use of -or" means -and/or" unless specifically stated otherwise, even though "and/or" may be explicitly used in certain instances.
In addition, in this application, the use of -or" means -and/or" unless specifically stated otherwise, even though "and/or" may be explicitly used in certain instances.
[0015] As used herein, "including," "containing" and like terms are understood in the context of this application to be synonymous with "comprising" and are therefore open-ended and do not exclude the presence of additional undescribed and/or unrecited elements, materials, ingredients and/or method steps.
[0016] As used herein, "consisting of' is understood in the context of this application to exclude the presence of any unspecified element, ingredient and/or method step.
[0017] As used herein, "consisting essentially of' is understood in the context of this application to include the specified elements, materials, ingredients and/or method steps "and those that do not materially affect the basic and novel characteristic(s)" of what is being described.
[0018] As used herein, the terms "on," -onto," "applied on,"
"applied onto," "formed on," "deposited on," "deposited onto," mean formed, overlaid, deposited, and/or provided on but not necessarily in contact with the surface. For example, a coating layer "formed over" a substrate does not preclude the presence of one or more other intervening coating layers of the same or different composition located between the formed coating layer and the substrate.
"applied onto," "formed on," "deposited on," "deposited onto," mean formed, overlaid, deposited, and/or provided on but not necessarily in contact with the surface.

[00801 The conversion composition may optionally further comprise an indicator compound, so named because it indicates, for example, the presence of a chemical species, such as a metal ion, the pH of a composition, and the like. An "indicator", "indicator compound", and like terms as used herein refer to a compound that changes color in response to some external stimulus, parameter, or condition, such as the presence of a metal ion, or in response to a specific pH or range of pHs.
[0081] The indicator compound may be any indicator known in the art that indicates the presence of a species, a particular pH, and the like. For example, a suitable indicator may be one that changes color after forming a metal ion complex with a particular metal ion. The metal ion indicator is generally a highly conjugated organic compound. A "conjugated compound- as used herein, and as will be understood by those skilled in the art, refers to a compound having two double bonds separated by a single bond, for example two carbon-carbon double bonds with a single carbon-carbon bond between them. Any conjugated compound can be used according to the present disclosure.
[0082] Similarly, the indicator compound can be one in which the color changes upon change of the pH; for example, the compound may be one color at an acidic or neutral pH and change color in an alkaline pH, or vice versa. Such indicators are well known and widely commercially available. An indicator that "changes color upon transition from a first pH to a second pH" (i.e., from a first pH to a second pH that is more or less acidic or alkaline) therefore has a first color (or is colorless) when exposed to a first pH and changes to a second color (or goes from colorless to colored) upon transition to a second pH (i.e., one that is either more or less acidic or alkaline than the first pH). For example, an indicator that "changes color upon transition to a more alkaline pH (or less acidic pH) goes from a first color/colorless to a second color/color when the pH transitions from acidic/neutral to alkaline. For example, an indicator that "changes color upon transition to a more acidic pH (or less alkaline pH) goes from a first color/colorless to a second color/color when the pH transitions from alkaline/neutral to acidic.
[0083] Non-limiting examples of such indicator compounds include methyl orange, xylenol orange, catechol violet, bromophenol blue, green and purple, eriochrome black T, Celestine blue, hematoxylin, calmagite, gallocyanine, and combinations thereof. Optionally, the indicator compound may comprise an organic indicator compound that is a metal ion indicator.
Nonlimiting examples of indicator compounds include those found in Table 1.
Fluorescent indicators, which will emit light in certain conditions, can also be used according to the present disclosure, although the use of a fluorescent indicator also may be specifically excluded. That is, alternatively, conjugated compounds that exhibit fluorescence are specifically excluded. As used herein, "fluorescent indicator" and like terms refer to compounds, molecules, pigments, and/or dyes that will fluoresce or otherwise exhibit color upon exposure to ultraviolet or visible light.
To "fluoresce" will be understood as emitting light following absorption of shorter wavelength light or other electromagnetic radiation. Examples of such indicators, often referred to as "tags,"
include acridine, anthraquinone, coumarin, diphenylmethane, diphenylnaphthlymethane, quinoline, stilbene, triphenylmethane, anthracine and/or molecules containing any of these moieties and/or derivatives of any of these such as rhodamines, phenanthridines, oxazines, fluorones, cyanines and/or acridines.

[0084] According to the present disclosure, the conjugated compound useful as indicator may for example comprise catechol violet, as shown in Table 1. Catechol violet (CV) is a sulfone phthalein dye made from condensing two moles of pyrocatechol with one mole of o-sulfobenzoic acid anhydride. It has been found that CV has indicator properties and when incorporated into compositions having metal ions, it forms complexes, making it useful as a complexiometric reagent. As the composition containing the CV chelates metal ions coming from the metal substrate (i.e., those having hi- or higher valence), a generally blue to blue-violet color is observed.
[0085] Xylenol orange, as shown in Table 1, may likewise be employed in the compositions according to the present disclosure. It has been found that xylenol orange has metal ion (i.e., those having bi- or higher valence) indicator properties and when incorporated into compositions having metal ions, it forms complexes, making it useful as a complexiometric reagent. As the composition containing the xylenol orange chelates metal ions, a solution of xylenol orange turns from red to a generally blue color.
[0086] According to the present disclosure, the indicator compound may be present in the conversion composition in an amount of at least 0.01 g/1000 g conversion composition, such as at least 0.05 g/1000 g conversion composition, and in some instances, no more than 3 g/1000 g conversion composition, such as no more than 0.3g/1000 g conversion composition. According to the present disclosure, the indicator compound may be present in the conversion composition in an amount of 0.01 g/1000 g conversion composition to 3 g/1000 g conversion composition, such as 0.05 g/1000 g conversion composition to 0.3 g/1000 g conversion composition.
[0087] The indicator compound changing color in response to a certain external stimulus provides a benefit when using the conversion composition in that it can serve, for example, as a visual indication that a substrate has been treated with the composition. For example, a conversion composition comprising an indicator that changes color when exposed to a metal ion that is present in the substrate will change color upon complexing with metal ions in that substrate; this allows the user to see that the substrate has been contacted with the composition.
Similar benefits can be realized by depositing an alkaline or acid layer on a substrate and contacting the substrate with a composition of the present disclosure that changes color when exposed to an alkaline or acidic pH.
[0088] The pH of the conversion composition may, in some instances, be less than 7, such as less than 5, such as 1.5 to 6.9, such as 2.0 to 6.0, such as 2.5 to 4.5, such as 2.8 to 4.5.
The pH may be adjusted using, for example, any acid and/or base as is necessary. Thus, the pH
of the conversion composition may be maintained through the inclusion of an acidic material, including water soluble and/or water dispersible acids, such as nitric acid, sulfuric acid, and/or phosphoric acid. Additionally, the pH of the composition may be maintained through the inclusion of a basic material, including water soluble and/or water dispersible bases, such as sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, potassium hydroxide, ammonium hydroxide, ammonia, and/or amines such as triethylamine, methylethyl amine, or mixtures thereof.
[0089] The conversion composition may exclude hexavalent chromium or compounds that include hexavalent chromium. Non-limiting examples of such materials include chromic acid, chromium trioxide, chromic acid anhydride, dichromate salts, such as ammonium dichromate, sodium dichromate, potassium dichromate, and calcium, barium, magnesium, zinc, cadmium, and strontium dichromate. When a composition and/or a coating or a layer formed from the composition is substantially free, essentially free, or completely free of hexavalent chromium, this includes hexavalent chromium in any form, such as, but not limited to, the hexavalent chromium-containing compounds listed above.
[0090] Thus, optionally, the conversion composition and/or coatings or layers, respectively, deposited from the same may be substantially free, may be essentially free, and/or may be completely free of one or more of any of the elements or compounds listed in the preceding paragraph. A composition and/or coating or layer, respectively, formed from the same that is substantially free of hexavalent chromium or derivatives thereof means that hexavalent chromium or derivatives thereof are not intentionally added, but may be present in trace amounts, such as because of impurities or unavoidable contamination from the environment. In other words, the amount of material is so small that it does not affect the properties of the composition; in the case of hexavalent chromium, this may further include that the element or compounds thereof are not present in the compositions and/or coatings or layers, respectively, formed from the same at such a level that it causes a burden on the environment. The term "substantially free" means that the composition and/or coating or layers, respectively, formed from the same contain less than 10 ppm of any or all of the elements or compounds listed in the preceding paragraph, based on total weight of the composition or the layer, respectively, if any at all. The term "essentially free" means that the composition and/or coatings or layers, respectively, formed from the same contain less than 1 ppm of any or all of the elements or compounds listed in the preceding paragraph, if any at all. The term "completely free" means that the composition and/or coatings or layers, respectively, formed from the same contain less than 1 ppb of any or all of the elements or compounds listed in the preceding paragraph, if any at all.
[0091] The conversion composition may comprise an aqueous medium and may optionally contain other materials such as nonionic surfactants and auxiliaries conventionally used in the art of conversion compositions.

When present, water dispersible organic solvents are typically used in amounts up to about 10% by volume, based on the total volume of aqueous medium. Additionally, in the aqueous medium, thickeners such as cellulosic, silicated, or acrylic thickeners may be present. When present, such thickeners are typically used in amounts of at least 0.00001 wt.%, such as at least 0.5 wt.%, and in some instances, no more than wt.%, such as no more than 1 wt.%. When present, such thickeners are typically used in amounts of 0.00001 wt.% to 5 wt.%, such as 0.5 wt.% to 1 wt/%, based on total weight of the composition. As used herein, "thickener" refers to materials that are substantially free of crosslinking. and "substantially free of crosslinking" refers to materials that have a weight average molecular weight, as determined by gel permeation chromatography, of less than 100,000.
[0092] Other optional materials that may be included in the conversion composition include surfactants that function as defoamers or substrate wetting agents.
Anionic, cationic, amphoteric, and/or nonionic surfactants may be used. Defoaming surfactants may optionally be present at levels up to 1 wt.%, such as up to 0.1 wt.%, and wetting agents are typically present at levels up to 2 wt.%, such as up to 0.5 wt.%, based on the total weight of the conversion composition.

The cationic electrodepositable coating composition may be deposited upon an electrically conductive substrate by placing the composition in contact with an electrically conductive cathode and an electrically conductive anode, with the surface to be coated being the cathode. Alternatively, the anionic electrodepositable coating composition may be deposited upon an electrically conductive substrate by placing the composition in contact with an electrically conductive cathode and an electrically conductive anode, with the surface to be coated being the anode. An adherent film of the electrodepositable coating composition may be deposited in a substantially continuous manner on the cathode or anode when a sufficient voltage is impressed between the electrodes. The applied voltage may be varied and can be, for example, as low as one volt to as high as several thousand volts, such as between 50 and 500 volts. Current density is usually between 1.0 ampere and 15 amperes per square foot (10.8 to 161.5 amperes per square meter) and tends to decrease quickly during the electrodeposition process, indicating formation of a continuous self-insulating film.

Accordingly, the liquid coating composition disclosed herein is synonymous with waterborne and/or solvent-borne coating compositions known in the art. The liquid coating composition may comprise, for example, (a) a film-forming polymer having a reactive functional group and (b) a curing agent that is reactive with the functional group. In other examples, the liquid coating may contain a film-forming polymer that may react with oxygen in the air or coalesce into a film with the evaporation of water and/or solvents. These film-forming mechanisms may require or be accelerated by the application of heat or some type of radiation such as Ultraviolet or Infrared. Examples of liquid coating compositions that may be used in the present disclosure include the SPECTRACRONO line of solvent-based coating compositions, the AQUACRONO line of water-based coating compositions, and the RAYCRONO line of UV cured coatings all commercially available from PPG
Industries, Inc.
[0125] Suitable film-forming polymers that may be used in the liquid coating composition of the present disclosure may comprise a (poly)ester, an alkyd, a (poly)urethane, an isocyanurate, a (poly)urea. a (poly)epoxy, an anhydride, an acrylic, a (poly)ether, a (poly)sulfide, a (poly)amine, a (poly)amide, (poly)vinyl chloride, (poly)olefin, (poly)vinylidene fluoride, (poly)siloxane, or combinations thereof.
[0126] The film-forming polymer composition may comprise a primer composition. The primer compositions may comprise, for example, chromate-based primer compositions such as those available from PPG Industries, Inc. (product code 44GN072), or a chrome-free primer composition such as those available from PPG (DESOPRIME CA7502, DESOPRIME
CA7521, Deft 02GN083, Deft 02GN084) or such as those described in U.S. Patent Application Serial No.
10/758,973, titled "Corrosion Resistant Coatings Containing Carbon", and U.S.
Patent Application Serial Nos. 10/758,972 and 10/758,972, both titled -Corrosion Resistant Coatings", all of which are incorporated herein by reference. In examples, the primer composition may be one which can pass the military requirement of MIL-PRF-85582 Class N or MIL-Class N.
[0127] The film-forming polymer composition may comprise a topcoat composition. As used herein, the term "topcoat composition" refers to a mixture of binder(s) (i.e., organic or inorganic based polymer(s)) and at least one pigment, which can optionally contain at least one solvent and/or at least one curing agent. Topcoat compositions form a topcoat on a substrate, which is typically the coating layer in a single or multi-layer coating system whose outer surface is exposed to the atmosphere or environment, and whose inner surface is in contact with another coating layer or polymeric substrate. Examples of suitable topcoat compositions include those conforming to MIL-PRF-85285D, such as those available from PPG (Deft 03W127A
and Deft 03GY292). Other suitable topcoat compositions include advanced performance topcoat compositions such as those available from PPG (Defthanee ELT.TM. 99GY001 and 99W009).
However, other topcoat compositions and advanced performance topcoat compositions can be used in the present disclosure as will be understood by those of skill in the art with reference to this disclosure.
[0128] The film-forming polymer composition may comprise a self-priming topcoat or an enhanced self-priming topcoat. Examples of suitable self-priming topcoat compositions include those that conform to TT-P-2756A. Examples of self-priming topcoat compositions include those available from PPG (03W169 and 03GY369), and examples of enhanced self-priming topcoat compositions include Defthanee ELTIm/ESPT (product code 97GY121), available from PPG. However, other self-priming topcoats and enhanced self-priming topcoats can be used in the coating system according to the present disclosure as will be understood by those of skill in the art with reference to this disclosure.
[0129] In addition to the components described above, such film-forming resins may further comprise colorants, surfactants, wetting agents and/or catalysts. As used herein, the term "colorant" means any substance that is capable of imparting color, opacity and/or other visual effect to the composition. Example colorants include pigments, dyes and tints, such as those used in the paint industry and/or listed in the Dry Color Manufacturers Association (DCMA).
Methods [0130] Also disclosed herein arc methods for treating a substrate. The method may comprise, or consist essentially of, or consist of, contacting at least a portion of a surface of a substrate with one of the conversion compositions described herein above.
[0131] The solution or dispersion of the conversion composition may be brought into contact with the substrate by any of a variety of known techniques, such as dipping or immersion, spraying, intermittent spraying, dipping followed by spraying, spraying followed by dipping, brushing, or roll-coating. The solution or dispersion, when applied to the metal substrate, may be at a temperature ranging from 40 F to 160 F, such as 60 F to 110 F, such as 70 F to 90 F. For example, the process may be carried out at ambient or room temperature. The contact time is often from 1 second to 30 minutes, such as 30 seconds to 15 minutes, such as 4 minutes to 10 minutes.
[0132] Following the contacting with the conversion composition, the substrate optionally may be air dried at room temperature or may be dried with hot air, for example, by using an air knife, by flashing off the water by brief exposure of the substrate to a high temperature, such as by drying the substrate in an oven at 15 C to 100 C, such as 20 C to 90 C, or in a heater assembly using, for example, infrared heat, such as for 10 minutes at 70 C, or by passing the substrate between squeegee rolls. Alternatively, following the contacting with the conversion composition, the substrate optionally may be rinsed with tap water, deionized water, reverse osmosis (RO) water and/or an aqueous solution of rinsing agents in order to remove any residue and then optionally may be dried, for example air dried or dried with hot air as described in the preceding sentence.
[0133] The metal substrate optionally may be prepared by first solvent treating the metal substrate prior to contacting the metal substrate with a cleaning composition, a deoxidizing composition, or one of the conversion compositions described herein. As used herein, the term "solvent treating" refers to rinsing, wiping, spraying, or immersing the substrate in a solvent that assists in the removal of inks, oils, etc., that may be on the metal surface.
Nonlimiting examples of suitable solvents include methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), methyl propyl ketone (MPK), acetone, and the like. Alternately, the metal substrate may be prepared by degreasing the metal substrate using conventional degreasing methods prior to contacting the metal substrate with the cleaning composition.
[0134] Additional optional procedures for preparing the metal substrate include the use of a surface brightener, such as an acid pickle or light acid etch, or a smut remover.
[0135] Optionally, at least a portion of the substrate surface may be cleaned and/or deoxidized prior to contacting at least a portion of the substrate surface with conversion compositions described above, in order to remove grease, dirt, and/or other extraneous matter, using any of the cleaners and/or deoxidizers described above. Such cleaners and/or deoxidizers are often preceded or followed by a water rinse, such as with tap water, distilled water, RO
water, or combinations thereof. For example, the methods of the present disclosure may include cleaning compositions and deoxidizing compositions which are applied to the substrate surface in sequential steps, optionally with a rinse step(s) intervening.
[0136] Optionally, as mentioned above, optionally, at least a portion of the cleaned substrate surface may be deoxidized, mechanically and/or chemically. Often, the chemical deoxidizer comprises a carrier, often an aqueous medium, so that the deoxidizer may be in the form of a solution or dispersion in the carrier, in which case the solution or dispersion may be brought into contact with the substrate by any of a variety of known techniques, such as dipping or immersion, spraying, intermittent spraying, dipping followed by spraying, spraying followed by dipping, brushing, or roll-coating. The skilled artisan will select a temperature range of the solution or dispersion, when applied to the metal substrate, based on etch rates, for example, at a temperature ranging from 50 F to 150 F (10 C to 66 C), such as from 70 F to 130 F (21 C to 54 C), such as from 80 F to 120 F (27 C to 49 C). The contact time may be from 30 seconds to 20 minutes, such as 1 minute to 15 minutes, such as 90 seconds to 12 minutes, such as 3 minutes to 9 minutes.
[0137] The cleaning and deoxidizing compositions may be brought into contact with the substrate surface by any of a variety of techniques. including, but not limited to, dip immersion, spraying, swabbing, or spreading using a brush, roller, or the like. With regard to application via spraying, conventional (automatic or manual) spray techniques and equipment used for air spraying may be used. The dwell time in which the cleaning composition remains in contact with the metal substrate may vary from a few seconds to several hours, for example less than 30 minutes or 3 minutes or less.
[0138] After contacting the metal substrate with the cleaning composition, the metal substrate may optionally be air dried, and then rinsed with tap water, RO
water, and/or distilled/de-ionized water. Alternately, after contacting the metal substrate with the composition, the metal substrate may be rinsed with tap water, RU water, and/or distilled/de-ionized water, and then subsequently air dried (if desired). However, the substrate need not be dried; and in some instances, drying is omitted. Additionally, as noted above, the substrate need not be rinsed, and the metal substrate may then be further coated with conversion coatings, primers and/or topcoats to achieve a substrate with a finished coating. Accordingly, in some instances, this subsequent rinse may be omitted. For example, a solvent (e.g., alcohol) may be used to rinse the substrate, which allows the omission of a drying step.
[0139] After the substrate is contacted with the conversion composition, a coating composition comprising a film-forming resin may be deposited onto at least a portion of the surface of the substrate that has been contacted with the conversion composition. Any suitable technique may be used to deposit such a coating composition onto the substrate, including, for example, brushing, dipping, flow coating, spraying and the like. In some instances, however, as described in more detail below, such depositing of a coating composition may comprise an electrocoating step wherein an electrodepositable composition is deposited onto a metal substrate by electrodeposition. In certain other instances, as described in more detail below, such depositing of a coating composition comprises a powder coating step. In still other instances, the coating composition may be a liquid coating composition.
[0140] Once the cationic or anionic electrodepositable coating composition is electrodeposited over at least a portion of the electroconductive substrate, the coated substrate may be heated to a temperature and for a time sufficient to cure the electrodeposited coating on the substrate. For cationic electrodeposition, the coated substrate may be heated to a temperature ranging from 250 F to 450 F (121.1 C to 232.2 C), such as from 275 F to 400 F
(135 C to 204.4 C), such as from 300 F to 360 F (149 C to 180 C). For anionic electrodeposition, the coated substrate may be heated to a temperature ranging from 200 F to 450 F
(93 C to 232.2 C), such as from 275 F to 400 F (135 C to 204.4 C), such as from 300 F to 360 F
(149 C to 180 C), such as 200 F to 210.2 F (93 C to 99 C). The curing time may be dependent upon the curing temperature as well as other variables, for example, the film thickness of the electrodeposited coating, level and type of catalyst present in the composition and the like. For example, the curing time can range from 10 to 60 minutes, such as 20 to 40 minutes. The thickness of the resultant cured electrodeposited coating may range from 2 to 50 microns.
[0141] After deposition of the powder coating composition, the coating is often heated to cure the deposited composition. The heating or curing operation is often carried out at a temperature in the range of from 150 C to 200 C, such as from 170 C to 190 C, for a period of time ranging from 10 to 20 minutes. The thickness of the resultant film is from 50 to 125 microns.
[0142] The self-priming topcoat and enhanced self-priming topcoat may be applied directly to the substrate treated with the conversion composition. The self-priming topcoat and enhanced self-priming topcoat can optionally be applied to an organic or inorganic polymeric coating, such as a primer or paint film. The self-priming topcoat layer and enhanced self-priming topcoat is typically the coating layer in a single or multi-layer coating system where the outer surface of the coating is exposed to the atmosphere or environment, and the inner surface of the coating is typically in contact with the substrate or optional polymer coating or primer.
[0143] The topcoat, self-priming topcoat, and enhanced self-priming topcoat can be applied to the treated substrate, in either a wet or "not fully cured"
condition that dries or cures over time, that is, solvent evaporates and/or there is a chemical reaction.
The coatings can dry or cure either naturally or by accelerated means, for example, an ultraviolet light cured system to form a film or "cured" paint. The coatings can also be applied in a semi or fully cured state, such as an adhesive.
Substrates [0144] Disclosed herein are substrates treated with the conversion compositions described above. Also disclosed herein are substrates treated with the systems and methods described above.
[0145] Suitable substrates that may be used in the present disclosure include metal substrates, metal alloy substrates, and/or substrates that have been metallized, such as nickel-plated plastic. The metal or metal alloy can comprise or be steel, aluminum, zinc, nickel, and/or magnesium. For example, the steel substrate could be cold rolled steel, hot rolled steel, electrogalvanized steel, and/or hot dipped galvanized steel. Aluminum alloys of the 1XXX, 2XXX, 3XXX, 4XXX, 5XXX, 6XXX, or 7XXX series as well as clad aluminum alloys also may be used as the substrate. Aluminum alloys may comprise 0.01 wt.% copper to 10 wt.% copper.
Aluminum alloys which are treated may also include castings, such as 1XX.X, 2XX.X, 3XX.X, 4XX.X, 5XX.X, 6XX.X, 7XX.X. 8XX.X, or 9XX.X (e.g., A356.0). Magnesium alloys of the AZ31B, AZ91C, AM60B, or EV31A series also may be used as the substrate. The substrate used in the present disclosure may also comprise titanium and/or titanium alloys, zinc and/or zinc alloys, and/or nickel and/or nickel alloys. The substrate also may comprise assemblies or multi-metal substrates. The substrate may comprise a portion of a vehicle such as a vehicular body (e.g., without limitation, door, body panel, trunk deck lid, roof panel, hood, roof and/or stringers, rivets, landing gear components, and/or skins used on an aircraft) and/or a vehicular frame. As used herein. "vehicle" or variations thereof include, but is not limited to, civilian, commercial, and military aircraft, and/or land vehicles such as cars, motorcycles, and/or trucks.
[0146] In examples, the substrate may be a complex part and/or may have a non-horizontal surface. The surface may be a substantially vertical surface.
[0147] Disclosed herein are treated substrates. The treated substrates may comprise, or consist essentially of, or consist of, a film formed from one of the conversion compositions disclosed herein. The film may be formed from a conversion composition comprising, or consisting essentially of, or consisting of, a yield stress component and a corrosion inhibitor, wherein the conversion composition comprises a yield stress sufficient to overcome the effect of gravity when applied to a non-horizontal surface.
[0148] Also disclosed herein are substrates treated with any of the systems disclosed hereinabove.

[0150] It has been surprisingly discovered that the conversion compositions disclosed herein provide substrates with corrosion protection when exposed to neutral salt spray testing for 24 hours. For example, the substrate surface may comprise less than 1%
corrosion over a 1.376 in2 area of the substrate surface following 24-hour exposure to a 5% sodium chloride salt fog environment (salt spray cabinet operated according to ASTM B117 (2019)), such as less than 0.75% corrosion, such as less than 0.5% corrosion, such as less than 0.25%
corrosion, such as less than 0.2% corrosion. For example, the treated substrate may pass corrosion testing according to ASTM D610-08 (2019) rating scale, such as a rating of at least 7P, such as at least 8P, such as at least 9P.
Uses [0151] Also disclosed are uses of the compositions disclosed herein to provide a conversion composition comprising (i) a yield stress sufficient to overcome the effect of gravity when applied to a non-horizontal surface and (ii) a shear thinning rheology profile.
[0152] Also disclosed are uses of a film formed on a substrate surface from the conversion compositions disclosed herein to provide a film that overcomes the effect of gravity when applied to a non-horizontal surface and that provides corrosion protection to the surface such that the substrate surface comprises less than 1% corrosion of a 1.376 in2 area of the substrate surface following 24 hour exposure to a 5% sodium chloride salt fog environment (salt spray cabinet operated according to ASTM B117 (2019)) and/or wherein the substrate passes corrosion testing according to ASTM D610-08 (2019) rating scale. The substrate may comprise a substantially vertical surface. The substrate may comprise a complex substrate.
[0153] The films formed by the conversion compositions, systems and methods may be used to repair a surface of a substrate.
Methods of Making the Conversion Compositions [0154] The conversion compositions disclosed herein may be made by first optionally adjusting a pH of the yield stress component to a pH of less than 7; and then mixing the yield stress component with the corrosion inhibitor. Optionally, the pH of the conversion composition may be adjusted to a pH less than 7, such as a pH of 2.8 to 4.5.
[0155] Optionally, the yield stress fluid may be made using conventional free-radical polymerization techniques including emulsion, dispersion or solution processes.
[0156] Illustrating the disclosed subject matter are the following examples that are not to be considered as limiting the disclosure to their details. All parts and percentages in the examples, as well as throughout the specification, are by weight unless otherwise indicated.
EXAMPLES
Preparation of corrosion inhibitor compositions [0157] A 1.0 wt% solution of diutan gum in deionized water was prepared by adding 5.0g of diutan gum to 495g of warmed, deionized water and stirring for 18 hours to obtain a homogeneous solution.
[0158] A concentrated solution of corrosion inhibitor was prepared in the following manner. Potassium hexafluorozirconate (1.5g) was added to 500g of deionized distilled water and stirred until completely dissolved. Chromium(III) chloride hexahydrate (2.2g) was then added and the mixture stirred to obtain a homogeneous solution.
[0159] The concentrated solution of corrosion inhibitor was then combined with the solution of diutan gum and diluted to the final concentrations shown in Table 2 to form the compositions of Samples A to E, with Sample E being a comparative example.
[0160] Additional comparative Samples F and G were prepared using MethocelT" A4M
as shown in Table 2. The concentrated solution of corrosion inhibitor was combined with deionized water and dry McthocclTM A4M powder, then stirred at high speed for six hours, to obtain a homogenous solution.

Sample Application and 24 Hours Corrosion Testing [0165] FIG. 1 shows schematics of photographs taken of panels 100 treated as follows.
Panels 100 are shown in holders 200 which held the panels at a substantially vertical orientation.
[0166] Samples A to G were applied on 2024-T3 bare aluminum panels (3 inches wide, inches long and 0.032 inches thick) using the following procedure. The panels were first subjected to a tap water abrade that consisted of wetting the substrate with tap water, scrubbing the surface with a Scotch-Brite 7447 pad, spray rinsing with tap water, wiping down the rinsed surface with a cheesecloth to remove residual smut followed by a final tap rinse. The panels were then dried in air prior to application of the conversion coatings. The panels were secured on a rack in a substantially vertical orientation at an inclination of 70-90 degrees above the horizontal. One of the conversion compositions was applied by brushing once in an upward direction, starting at the bottom of the panel, to wet the surface and allowing the formula to dwell in place for a total of 5 minutes. A wet gauze wipe was performed on the treated panels by wiping three times with a clean cheesecloth that had been saturated with deionized water.
[0167] As shown in FIG. 1E, 1F and 1G, Samples E, F and G
(comparatives) did not have sufficient yield stress for the composition to cling to the substrate without dripping when the substrate was oriented substantially vertically during application.
However, as shown in FIG.
1A, 1B, 1C, and 1D, Samples A, B, C and D had sufficient yield stress to counteract the effect of gravity on the wet coated film (i.e., to cling to the substrate surface) and little to no dripping was observed in these Samples.
[0168] Five panels prepared with Sample A were then dried in air again and exposed to neutral salt spray (5% sodium chloride salt fog environment) for 24 hours.
Five untreated panels H were prepared the same way as those treated with Sample A, but without any conversion coating (i.e., subjected to a tap water abrade, scrubbing, rinsing and wiping as described above but not treated with any of Samples A to G) were run as control H.
[0169] After salt spray exposure, panels were rinsed and dried.
FIG. 2A shows photographs of panels treated with Sample A following exposure to neutral salt spray according to the Example disclosed herein and FIG. 2B shows photographs of untreated panels (H) following exposure to neutral salt spray. As shown, panels treated with Sample A had virtually no corrosion on the substrate surface (FIG. 2A), while the substrate surface of the untreated panel H was significantly corroded as shown by the significant number of pits (see arrow as an example) and corrosion products formed on the substrate surface (FIG. 2B).
[0170] Panels were analyzed for corrosion with a VHX-2000 super resolution digital microscope from Keyence equipped with a VH-ZOOR lens. A magnified image of a 1.376 in2 region in the center of the panel was taken using the auto area measurement tool in the "mesr/draw" menu. Extraction parameters were set so that the area of the panel that had corroded was highlighted, and the total highlighted area measured as a fraction of the total analysis area and reported below as a percent value. Three sections of each panel were measured and then averaged. Data are presented in Table 5 below. Corrosion on panels also was rated according to "Table 1 Scale and Description of Rust Ratings" from the specification ASTM
D610-08 (2019), and the ratings are shown in Table 5 below.
Table 5. Corrosion data following Exposure to ASTM B117 (2019) Neutral Salt Spray Corrosion Results After 24 Hours Neutral Salt Spray Sample A CONTROL H
Panel Set Corrosion ASTM D610 Corrosion Area (%) Rating Area (%) Rating 1 0.139 7P 69.116 2 0.049 8P 75.548 3 0.186 7P 72.853 4 0.132 7P 69.128 0.123 7P 71.212 0 Average 0.126 7P 71.571 [0171] Sample A provided significant improvement in corrosion protection. The control panels without the conversion coating averaged >70% corroded area per panel and failed testing according to ASTM D610 rating scale, whereas panels with Sample A had no more than 0.2%
corroded area and passed according to the ASTM D610 rating scale.
[0172] Collectively, the data presented herein demonstrate that Samples containing more than 0.10% diutan gum and trivalent chromium not only provide corrosion protection to treated substrates, but also combines the advantages of low viscosity at high shear rates for easy brush application with a high enough yield stress to prevent the wet coating from dripping when applied to vertically oriented surfaces.
[0173] Whereas particular features of the present disclosure have been described above for purposes of illustration, it will be evident to those skilled in the art that numerous variations of the details of the coating composition, coating, and methods disclosed herein may be made without departing from the scope in the appended claims.
[00801 The conversion composition may optionally further comprise an indicator compound, so named because it indicates, for example, the presence of a chemical species, such as a metal ion, the pH of a composition, and the like. An "indicator", "indicator compound", and like terms as used herein refer to a compound that changes color in response to some external stimulus, parameter, or condition, such as the presence of a metal ion, or in response to a specific pH or range of pHs.
[0081] The indicator compound may be any indicator known in the art that indicates the presence of a species, a particular pH, and the like. For example, a suitable indicator may be one that changes color after forming a metal ion complex with a particular metal ion. The metal ion indicator is generally a highly conjugated organic compound. A "conjugated compound- as used herein, and as will be understood by those skilled in the art, refers to a compound having two double bonds separated by a single bond, for example two carbon-carbon double bonds with a single carbon-carbon bond between them. Any conjugated compound can be used according to the present disclosure.
[0082] Similarly, the indicator compound can be one in which the color changes upon change of the pH; for example, the compound may be one color at an acidic or neutral pH and change color in an alkaline pH, or vice versa. Such indicators are well known and widely commercially available. An indicator that "changes color upon transition from a first pH to a second pH" (i.e., from a first pH to a second pH that is more or less acidic or alkaline) therefore has a first color (or is colorless) when exposed to a first pH and changes to a second color (or goes from colorless to colored) upon transition to a second pH (i.e., one that is either more or less acidic or alkaline than the first pH). For example, an indicator that "changes color upon transition to a more alkaline pH (or less acidic pH) goes from a first color/colorless to a second color/color when the pH transitions from acidic/neutral to alkaline. For example, an indicator that "changes color upon transition to a more acidic pH (or less alkaline pH) goes from a first color/colorless to a second color/color when the pH transitions from alkaline/neutral to acidic.
[0083] Non-limiting examples of such indicator compounds include methyl orange, xylenol orange, catechol violet, bromophenol blue, green and purple, eriochrome black T, Celestine blue, hematoxylin, calmagite, gallocyanine, and combinations thereof. Optionally, the indicator compound may comprise an organic indicator compound that is a metal ion indicator.
Nonlimiting examples of indicator compounds include those found in Table 1.
Fluorescent indicators, which will emit light in certain conditions, can also be used according to the present disclosure, although the use of a fluorescent indicator also may be specifically excluded. That is, alternatively, conjugated compounds that exhibit fluorescence are specifically excluded. As used herein, "fluorescent indicator" and like terms refer to compounds, molecules, pigments, and/or dyes that will fluoresce or otherwise exhibit color upon exposure to ultraviolet or visible light.
To "fluoresce" will be understood as emitting light following absorption of shorter wavelength light or other electromagnetic radiation. Examples of such indicators, often referred to as "tags,"
include acridine, anthraquinone, coumarin, diphenylmethane, diphenylnaphthlymethane, quinoline, stilbene, triphenylmethane, anthracine and/or molecules containing any of these moieties and/or derivatives of any of these such as rhodamines, phenanthridines, oxazines, fluorones, cyanines and/or acridines.

[0084] According to the present disclosure, the conjugated compound useful as indicator may for example comprise catechol violet, as shown in Table 1. Catechol violet (CV) is a sulfone phthalein dye made from condensing two moles of pyrocatechol with one mole of o-sulfobenzoic acid anhydride. It has been found that CV has indicator properties and when incorporated into compositions having metal ions, it forms complexes, making it useful as a complexiometric reagent. As the composition containing the CV chelates metal ions coming from the metal substrate (i.e., those having hi- or higher valence), a generally blue to blue-violet color is observed.
[0085] Xylenol orange, as shown in Table 1, may likewise be employed in the compositions according to the present disclosure. It has been found that xylenol orange has metal ion (i.e., those having bi- or higher valence) indicator properties and when incorporated into compositions having metal ions, it forms complexes, making it useful as a complexiometric reagent. As the composition containing the xylenol orange chelates metal ions, a solution of xylenol orange turns from red to a generally blue color.
[0086] According to the present disclosure, the indicator compound may be present in the conversion composition in an amount of at least 0.01 g/1000 g conversion composition, such as at least 0.05 g/1000 g conversion composition, and in some instances, no more than 3 g/1000 g conversion composition, such as no more than 0.3g/1000 g conversion composition. According to the present disclosure, the indicator compound may be present in the conversion composition in an amount of 0.01 g/1000 g conversion composition to 3 g/1000 g conversion composition, such as 0.05 g/1000 g conversion composition to 0.3 g/1000 g conversion composition.
[0087] The indicator compound changing color in response to a certain external stimulus provides a benefit when using the conversion composition in that it can serve, for example, as a visual indication that a substrate has been treated with the composition. For example, a conversion composition comprising an indicator that changes color when exposed to a metal ion that is present in the substrate will change color upon complexing with metal ions in that substrate; this allows the user to see that the substrate has been contacted with the composition.
Similar benefits can be realized by depositing an alkaline or acid layer on a substrate and contacting the substrate with a composition of the present disclosure that changes color when exposed to an alkaline or acidic pH.
[0088] The pH of the conversion composition may, in some instances, be less than 7, such as less than 5, such as 1.5 to 6.9, such as 2.0 to 6.0, such as 2.5 to 4.5, such as 2.8 to 4.5.
The pH may be adjusted using, for example, any acid and/or base as is necessary. Thus, the pH
of the conversion composition may be maintained through the inclusion of an acidic material, including water soluble and/or water dispersible acids, such as nitric acid, sulfuric acid, and/or phosphoric acid. Additionally, the pH of the composition may be maintained through the inclusion of a basic material, including water soluble and/or water dispersible bases, such as sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, potassium hydroxide, ammonium hydroxide, ammonia, and/or amines such as triethylamine, methylethyl amine, or mixtures thereof.
[0089] The conversion composition may exclude hexavalent chromium or compounds that include hexavalent chromium. Non-limiting examples of such materials include chromic acid, chromium trioxide, chromic acid anhydride, dichromate salts, such as ammonium dichromate, sodium dichromate, potassium dichromate, and calcium, barium, magnesium, zinc, cadmium, and strontium dichromate. When a composition and/or a coating or a layer formed from the composition is substantially free, essentially free, or completely free of hexavalent chromium, this includes hexavalent chromium in any form, such as, but not limited to, the hexavalent chromium-containing compounds listed above.
[0090] Thus, optionally, the conversion composition and/or coatings or layers, respectively, deposited from the same may be substantially free, may be essentially free, and/or may be completely free of one or more of any of the elements or compounds listed in the preceding paragraph. A composition and/or coating or layer, respectively, formed from the same that is substantially free of hexavalent chromium or derivatives thereof means that hexavalent chromium or derivatives thereof are not intentionally added, but may be present in trace amounts, such as because of impurities or unavoidable contamination from the environment. In other words, the amount of material is so small that it does not affect the properties of the composition; in the case of hexavalent chromium, this may further include that the element or compounds thereof are not present in the compositions and/or coatings or layers, respectively, formed from the same at such a level that it causes a burden on the environment. The term "substantially free" means that the composition and/or coating or layers, respectively, formed from the same contain less than 10 ppm of any or all of the elements or compounds listed in the preceding paragraph, based on total weight of the composition or the layer, respectively, if any at all. The term "essentially free" means that the composition and/or coatings or layers, respectively, formed from the same contain less than 1 ppm of any or all of the elements or compounds listed in the preceding paragraph, if any at all. The term "completely free" means that the composition and/or coatings or layers, respectively, formed from the same contain less than 1 ppb of any or all of the elements or compounds listed in the preceding paragraph, if any at all.
[0091] The conversion composition may comprise an aqueous medium and may optionally contain other materials such as nonionic surfactants and auxiliaries conventionally used in the art of conversion compositions. In the aqueous medium, water dispersible organic solvents, for example, alcohols with up to about 8 carbon atoms such as methanol, isopropanol, and the like, may be present; or glycol ethers such as the monoalkyl ethers of ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, or propylene glycol, and the like. When present, water dispersible organic solvents are typically used in amounts up to about 10% by volume, based on the total volume of aqueous medium. Additionally, in the aqueous medium, thickeners such as cellulosic, silicated, or acrylic thickeners may be present. When present, such thickeners are typically used in amounts of at least 0.00001 wt.%, such as at least 0.5 wt.%, and in some instances, no more than wt.%, such as no more than 1 wt.%. When present, such thickeners are typically used in amounts of 0.00001 wt.% to 5 wt.%, such as 0.5 wt.% to 1 wt/%, based on total weight of the composition. As used herein, "thickener" refers to materials that are substantially free of crosslinking. and "substantially free of crosslinking" refers to materials that have a weight average molecular weight, as determined by gel permeation chromatography, of less than 100,000.
[0092] Other optional materials that may be included in the conversion composition include surfactants that function as defoamers or substrate wetting agents.
Anionic, cationic, amphoteric, and/or nonionic surfactants may be used. Defoaming surfactants may optionally be present at levels up to 1 wt.%, such as up to 0.1 wt.%, and wetting agents are typically present at levels up to 2 wt.%, such as up to 0.5 wt.%, based on the total weight of the conversion composition.

Conventional film-forming resins that may be used include, without limitation, those typically used in automotive OEM coating compositions, automotive refinish coating compositions, industrial coating compositions, architectural coating compositions, coil coating compositions, and aerospace coating compositions, among others. As used herein, the term "thermosetting" refers to resins that "set" irreversibly upon curing or crosslinking. wherein the polymer chains of the polymeric components are joined together by covalent bonds. This property is usually associated with a cross-linking reaction of the composition constituents often induced, for example, by heat or radiation.
Curing or cros slinking reactions also may be carried out under ambient conditions. Once cured or crosslinked, a thermosetting resin will not melt upon the application of heat and is insoluble in solvents. As used herein, the term -thermoplastic" refers to resins that comprise polymeric components that are not joined by covalent bonds and thereby can undergo liquid flow upon heating and are soluble in solvents.

Also suitable are the at least partially neutralized interpolymers of hydroxy-alkyl esters of unsaturated carboxylic acids, unsaturated carboxylic acid and at least one other ethylenically unsaturated monomer. Still another suitable anionic electrodepositable resin comprises an alkyd-aminoplast vehicle, i.e., a vehicle containing an alkyd resin and an amine-aldehyde resin. Another suitable anionic electrodepositable resin composition comprises mixed esters of a resinous polyol. Other acid functional polymers may also be used such as phosphatized polyepoxide or phosphatized acrylic polymers. Exemplary phosphatized polyepoxides are disclosed in U.S.

Examples of suitable topcoat compositions include those conforming to MIL-PRF-85285D, such as those available from PPG (Deft 03W127A
and Deft 03GY292). Other suitable topcoat compositions include advanced performance topcoat compositions such as those available from PPG (Defthanee ELT.TM. 99GY001 and 99W009).
However, other topcoat compositions and advanced performance topcoat compositions can be used in the present disclosure as will be understood by those of skill in the art with reference to this disclosure.
[0128] The film-forming polymer composition may comprise a self-priming topcoat or an enhanced self-priming topcoat. Examples of suitable self-priming topcoat compositions include those that conform to TT-P-2756A. Examples of self-priming topcoat compositions include those available from PPG (03W169 and 03GY369), and examples of enhanced self-priming topcoat compositions include Defthanee ELTIm/ESPT (product code 97GY121), available from PPG. However, other self-priming topcoats and enhanced self-priming topcoats can be used in the coating system according to the present disclosure as will be understood by those of skill in the art with reference to this disclosure.
[0129] In addition to the components described above, such film-forming resins may further comprise colorants, surfactants, wetting agents and/or catalysts. As used herein, the term "colorant" means any substance that is capable of imparting color, opacity and/or other visual effect to the composition. Example colorants include pigments, dyes and tints, such as those used in the paint industry and/or listed in the Dry Color Manufacturers Association (DCMA).
Methods [0130] Also disclosed herein arc methods for treating a substrate. The method may comprise, or consist essentially of, or consist of, contacting at least a portion of a surface of a substrate with one of the conversion compositions described herein above.
[0131] The solution or dispersion of the conversion composition may be brought into contact with the substrate by any of a variety of known techniques, such as dipping or immersion, spraying, intermittent spraying, dipping followed by spraying, spraying followed by dipping, brushing, or roll-coating. The solution or dispersion, when applied to the metal substrate, may be at a temperature ranging from 40 F to 160 F, such as 60 F to 110 F, such as 70 F to 90 F. For example, the process may be carried out at ambient or room temperature. The contact time is often from 1 second to 30 minutes, such as 30 seconds to 15 minutes, such as 4 minutes to 10 minutes.
[0132] Following the contacting with the conversion composition, the substrate optionally may be air dried at room temperature or may be dried with hot air, for example, by using an air knife, by flashing off the water by brief exposure of the substrate to a high temperature, such as by drying the substrate in an oven at 15 C to 100 C, such as 20 C to 90 C, or in a heater assembly using, for example, infrared heat, such as for 10 minutes at 70 C, or by passing the substrate between squeegee rolls. Alternatively, following the contacting with the conversion composition, the substrate optionally may be rinsed with tap water, deionized water, reverse osmosis (RO) water and/or an aqueous solution of rinsing agents in order to remove any residue and then optionally may be dried, for example air dried or dried with hot air as described in the preceding sentence.
[0133] The metal substrate optionally may be prepared by first solvent treating the metal substrate prior to contacting the metal substrate with a cleaning composition, a deoxidizing composition, or one of the conversion compositions described herein. As used herein, the term "solvent treating" refers to rinsing, wiping, spraying, or immersing the substrate in a solvent that assists in the removal of inks, oils, etc., that may be on the metal surface.
Nonlimiting examples of suitable solvents include methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), methyl propyl ketone (MPK), acetone, and the like. Alternately, the metal substrate may be prepared by degreasing the metal substrate using conventional degreasing methods prior to contacting the metal substrate with the cleaning composition.
[0134] Additional optional procedures for preparing the metal substrate include the use of a surface brightener, such as an acid pickle or light acid etch, or a smut remover.
[0135] Optionally, at least a portion of the substrate surface may be cleaned and/or deoxidized prior to contacting at least a portion of the substrate surface with conversion compositions described above, in order to remove grease, dirt, and/or other extraneous matter, using any of the cleaners and/or deoxidizers described above. Such cleaners and/or deoxidizers are often preceded or followed by a water rinse, such as with tap water, distilled water, RO
water, or combinations thereof. For example, the methods of the present disclosure may include cleaning compositions and deoxidizing compositions which are applied to the substrate surface in sequential steps, optionally with a rinse step(s) intervening.
[0136] Optionally, as mentioned above, optionally, at least a portion of the cleaned substrate surface may be deoxidized, mechanically and/or chemically. Often, the chemical deoxidizer comprises a carrier, often an aqueous medium, so that the deoxidizer may be in the form of a solution or dispersion in the carrier, in which case the solution or dispersion may be brought into contact with the substrate by any of a variety of known techniques, such as dipping or immersion, spraying, intermittent spraying, dipping followed by spraying, spraying followed by dipping, brushing, or roll-coating. The skilled artisan will select a temperature range of the solution or dispersion, when applied to the metal substrate, based on etch rates, for example, at a temperature ranging from 50 F to 150 F (10 C to 66 C), such as from 70 F to 130 F (21 C to 54 C), such as from 80 F to 120 F (27 C to 49 C). The contact time may be from 30 seconds to 20 minutes, such as 1 minute to 15 minutes, such as 90 seconds to 12 minutes, such as 3 minutes to 9 minutes.
[0137] The cleaning and deoxidizing compositions may be brought into contact with the substrate surface by any of a variety of techniques. including, but not limited to, dip immersion, spraying, swabbing, or spreading using a brush, roller, or the like. With regard to application via spraying, conventional (automatic or manual) spray techniques and equipment used for air spraying may be used. The dwell time in which the cleaning composition remains in contact with the metal substrate may vary from a few seconds to several hours, for example less than 30 minutes or 3 minutes or less.
[0138] After contacting the metal substrate with the cleaning composition, the metal substrate may optionally be air dried, and then rinsed with tap water, RO
water, and/or distilled/de-ionized water. Alternately, after contacting the metal substrate with the composition, the metal substrate may be rinsed with tap water, RU water, and/or distilled/de-ionized water, and then subsequently air dried (if desired). However, the substrate need not be dried; and in some instances, drying is omitted. Additionally, as noted above, the substrate need not be rinsed, and the metal substrate may then be further coated with conversion coatings, primers and/or topcoats to achieve a substrate with a finished coating. Accordingly, in some instances, this subsequent rinse may be omitted. For example, a solvent (e.g., alcohol) may be used to rinse the substrate, which allows the omission of a drying step.
[0139] After the substrate is contacted with the conversion composition, a coating composition comprising a film-forming resin may be deposited onto at least a portion of the surface of the substrate that has been contacted with the conversion composition. Any suitable technique may be used to deposit such a coating composition onto the substrate, including, for example, brushing, dipping, flow coating, spraying and the like. In some instances, however, as described in more detail below, such depositing of a coating composition may comprise an electrocoating step wherein an electrodepositable composition is deposited onto a metal substrate by electrodeposition. In certain other instances, as described in more detail below, such depositing of a coating composition comprises a powder coating step. In still other instances, the coating composition may be a liquid coating composition.
[0140] Once the cationic or anionic electrodepositable coating composition is electrodeposited over at least a portion of the electroconductive substrate, the coated substrate may be heated to a temperature and for a time sufficient to cure the electrodeposited coating on the substrate. For cationic electrodeposition, the coated substrate may be heated to a temperature ranging from 250 F to 450 F (121.1 C to 232.2 C), such as from 275 F to 400 F
(135 C to 204.4 C), such as from 300 F to 360 F (149 C to 180 C). For anionic electrodeposition, the coated substrate may be heated to a temperature ranging from 200 F to 450 F
(93 C to 232.2 C), such as from 275 F to 400 F (135 C to 204.4 C), such as from 300 F to 360 F
(149 C to 180 C), such as 200 F to 210.2 F (93 C to 99 C). The curing time may be dependent upon the curing temperature as well as other variables, for example, the film thickness of the electrodeposited coating, level and type of catalyst present in the composition and the like. For example, the curing time can range from 10 to 60 minutes, such as 20 to 40 minutes. The thickness of the resultant cured electrodeposited coating may range from 2 to 50 microns.
[0141] After deposition of the powder coating composition, the coating is often heated to cure the deposited composition. The heating or curing operation is often carried out at a temperature in the range of from 150 C to 200 C, such as from 170 C to 190 C, for a period of time ranging from 10 to 20 minutes. The thickness of the resultant film is from 50 to 125 microns.
[0142] The self-priming topcoat and enhanced self-priming topcoat may be applied directly to the substrate treated with the conversion composition. The self-priming topcoat and enhanced self-priming topcoat can optionally be applied to an organic or inorganic polymeric coating, such as a primer or paint film. The self-priming topcoat layer and enhanced self-priming topcoat is typically the coating layer in a single or multi-layer coating system where the outer surface of the coating is exposed to the atmosphere or environment, and the inner surface of the coating is typically in contact with the substrate or optional polymer coating or primer.
[0143] The topcoat, self-priming topcoat, and enhanced self-priming topcoat can be applied to the treated substrate, in either a wet or "not fully cured"
condition that dries or cures over time, that is, solvent evaporates and/or there is a chemical reaction.
The coatings can dry or cure either naturally or by accelerated means, for example, an ultraviolet light cured system to form a film or "cured" paint. The coatings can also be applied in a semi or fully cured state, such as an adhesive.

[0156] Illustrating the disclosed subject matter are the following examples that are not to be considered as limiting the disclosure to their details. All parts and percentages in the examples, as well as throughout the specification, are by weight unless otherwise indicated.
EXAMPLES
Preparation of corrosion inhibitor compositions [0157] A 1.0 wt% solution of diutan gum in deionized water was prepared by adding 5.0g of diutan gum to 495g of warmed, deionized water and stirring for 18 hours to obtain a homogeneous solution.
[0158] A concentrated solution of corrosion inhibitor was prepared in the following manner. Potassium hexafluorozirconate (1.5g) was added to 500g of deionized distilled water and stirred until completely dissolved. Chromium(III) chloride hexahydrate (2.2g) was then added and the mixture stirred to obtain a homogeneous solution.
[0159] The concentrated solution of corrosion inhibitor was then combined with the solution of diutan gum and diluted to the final concentrations shown in Table 2 to form the compositions of Samples A to E, with Sample E being a comparative example.
[0160] Additional comparative Samples F and G were prepared using MethocelT" A4M
as shown in Table 2. The concentrated solution of corrosion inhibitor was combined with deionized water and dry McthocclTM A4M powder, then stirred at high speed for six hours, to obtain a homogenous solution.

[0162] The elastic (G') and viscous (G") moduli were determined as a function of increasing stress amplitude at a frequency of 1 Hz and the crossover of G' and G" was used to estimate the yield stress. Data are reported in Table 3 below.

Sample G showed shear thinning that was much weaker than sample A resulting in a relatively high viscosity at high shear rates that is not desirable for application.
Sample Application and 24 Hours Corrosion Testing [0165] FIG. 1 shows schematics of photographs taken of panels 100 treated as follows.
Panels 100 are shown in holders 200 which held the panels at a substantially vertical orientation.
[0166] Samples A to G were applied on 2024-T3 bare aluminum panels (3 inches wide, inches long and 0.032 inches thick) using the following procedure. The panels were first subjected to a tap water abrade that consisted of wetting the substrate with tap water, scrubbing the surface with a Scotch-Brite 7447 pad, spray rinsing with tap water, wiping down the rinsed surface with a cheesecloth to remove residual smut followed by a final tap rinse. The panels were then dried in air prior to application of the conversion coatings. The panels were secured on a rack in a substantially vertical orientation at an inclination of 70-90 degrees above the horizontal. One of the conversion compositions was applied by brushing once in an upward direction, starting at the bottom of the panel, to wet the surface and allowing the formula to dwell in place for a total of 5 minutes. A wet gauze wipe was performed on the treated panels by wiping three times with a clean cheesecloth that had been saturated with deionized water.
[0167] As shown in FIG. 1E, 1F and 1G, Samples E, F and G
(comparatives) did not have sufficient yield stress for the composition to cling to the substrate without dripping when the substrate was oriented substantially vertically during application.
However, as shown in FIG.
1A, 1B, 1C, and 1D, Samples A, B, C and D had sufficient yield stress to counteract the effect of gravity on the wet coated film (i.e., to cling to the substrate surface) and little to no dripping was observed in these Samples.
[0168] Five panels prepared with Sample A were then dried in air again and exposed to neutral salt spray (5% sodium chloride salt fog environment) for 24 hours.
Five untreated panels H were prepared the same way as those treated with Sample A, but without any conversion coating (i.e., subjected to a tap water abrade, scrubbing, rinsing and wiping as described above but not treated with any of Samples A to G) were run as control H.
[0169] After salt spray exposure, panels were rinsed and dried.
FIG. 2A shows photographs of panels treated with Sample A following exposure to neutral salt spray according to the Example disclosed herein and FIG. 2B shows photographs of untreated panels (H) following exposure to neutral salt spray. As shown, panels treated with Sample A had virtually no corrosion on the substrate surface (FIG. 2A), while the substrate surface of the untreated panel H was significantly corroded as shown by the significant number of pits (see arrow as an example) and corrosion products formed on the substrate surface (FIG. 2B).
[0170] Panels were analyzed for corrosion with a VHX-2000 super resolution digital microscope from Keyence equipped with a VH-ZOOR lens. A magnified image of a 1.376 in2 region in the center of the panel was taken using the auto area measurement tool in the "mesr/draw" menu. Extraction parameters were set so that the area of the panel that had corroded was highlighted, and the total highlighted area measured as a fraction of the total analysis area and reported below as a percent value. Three sections of each panel were measured and then averaged. Data are presented in Table 5 below. Corrosion on panels also was rated according to "Table 1 Scale and Description of Rust Ratings" from the specification ASTM
D610-08 (2019), and the ratings are shown in Table 5 below.
Table 5. Corrosion data following Exposure to ASTM B117 (2019) Neutral Salt Spray Corrosion Results After 24 Hours Neutral Salt Spray Sample A CONTROL H

The control panels without the conversion coating averaged >70% corroded area per panel and failed testing according to ASTM D610 rating scale, whereas panels with Sample A had no more than 0.2%
corroded area and passed according to the ASTM D610 rating scale.
[0172] Collectively, the data presented herein demonstrate that Samples containing more than 0.10% diutan gum and trivalent chromium not only provide corrosion protection to treated substrates, but also combines the advantages of low viscosity at high shear rates for easy brush application with a high enough yield stress to prevent the wet coating from dripping when applied to vertically oriented surfaces.
[0173] Whereas particular features of the present disclosure have been described above for purposes of illustration, it will be evident to those skilled in the art that numerous variations of the details of the coating composition, coating, and methods disclosed herein may be made without departing from the scope in the appended claims.
