Description: TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a method for cleaning a surface of a steel sheet, which efficiently removes contaminants and oxide films adhered inevitably in the manufacturing process of the steel sheet to improve the appearance. The purpose is to improve the rust resistance and chemical conversion treatability of the steel sheet by such cleaning as well as the preparation.

(Prior art and its problems) Whether a cold-rolled steel sheet or a plated steel sheet is used on the surface of a thin steel sheet, an oxidative film (that is, oxidation in the atmosphere, contamination of atmospheric gas during various heat treatments, heating / cooling) is inevitable in manufacturing. Oxidation in the interior, surface concentration of internal components during heat treatment, due to their mixture, oxidation due to chemical reaction treatment such as surface treatment) and covered with contaminants (adhesion of foreign substances in the atmosphere, residues in various manufacturing processes, etc.) It is well known that it has a great influence on the reactivity of the surface.

For example, in the production of cold rolled steel sheet, silicon stains in the electrolytic cleaning process before annealing, carbon stains in the annealing process,
In addition, there are temper colors due to improper steel composition and annealing conditions. All of these not only impair the appearance remarkably, but also significantly deteriorate the performance of the products when they are used by coating after being subjected to chemical conversion treatment by consumers.

Further, in the case of a galvanized steel sheet, for example, a hot dip galvanized steel sheet, the galvanized steel sheet is covered with a thick and stable oxide film by heating at high temperature, which is disadvantageous to the chemical conversion film. Further, in electroplated steel sheets as well, problems such as performance deterioration due to residual adhesion and alteration of the plating solution have been rapidly highlighted with the recent increase in demand for single-sided plated steel sheets and the progress of alloy plating and composite plating technology.

Conventionally, for cleaning the surface of such a steel sheet, a method of immersing in a strong acid solution such as sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid and, in some cases, further performing electrolytic pickling is efficient and has been widely adopted.

しかしながら、これら強酸溶液による清浄化処理は次の
ような重大な欠点があった。
However, the cleaning treatment with these strong acid solutions has the following serious drawbacks.

That is, pickling originally starts with the dissolution of the oxide film on the surface of the steel sheet, but if contaminants are present on the surface, especially if there are contaminants such as carbon that are insoluble in acid, leave the contaminants. If the dissolution progresses only in the clean area and a selective oxide film of specific elements such as Mn and Si is formed like temper color, there is a phenomenon that the dissolution progresses selectively according to the concentration distribution of these elements. .

Therefore, even if the color tone of the steel sheet surface pickled by these strong acids is restored, the melting surface is microscopically extremely non-uniform and becomes porous, so that gloss or appearance cannot be obtained. The degree is more remarkable for the stronger acid.

Further, since it is porous, even if it is sufficiently washed with water after pickling, the anions adsorbed on the surface of the steel sheet, iron eluted from the steel sheet surface during pickling, or metal ions and their salts cannot be sufficiently removed. Even if alkali neutralization is further performed, these have almost no effect of removing (cleaning) the pickling residue.

In this way, even if it is cleaned by the conventional cleaning treatment with a strong acid solution, at the invisible level, it is finished with such pickling residue remaining almost as it is, and this makes it the starting point from this residue even in the oiled state. Recovery of quality performance could not be expected, such as rust occurring early and deterioration of chemical conversion processability.

また操業面においても、これら強酸溶液による処理は安
全衛生や、廃液処理上等の問題があった。
Also in terms of operation, the treatment with these strong acid solutions has problems in safety and hygiene and waste liquid treatment.

Therefore, various problems caused by using these strong acids have been avoided, and a cleaning treatment with a weak acid or a neutral solution has been desired.

In the case of a weak acid to a neutral solution, needless to say, the ability to remove contaminants and oxide films is greatly inferior by simple dipping treatment, but it can be removed by electrolytic treatment.

However, the solution used for these electrolytic treatments
There is no PH buffering capacity, and the PH will rise sharply with electrolysis. As a result, especially at PH7 or above, precipitation of hydroxide becomes extremely intense and not only is difficult to remove, but there is a drawback that the precipitate is adsorbed on the steel plate surface and conversely contaminated. The desired clean surface with excellent rust resistance and chemical conversion treatability was not obtained.

(Means for Solving Problems) The inventors of the present invention focused on an electrolytic treatment method using a weak acid to a neutral solution, and diligently studied a method of suppressing PH change and precipitation formation associated with electrolysis, which is such a drawback. As a result of repeating the above, in the mixed solution of oxycarboxylic acid and its salt, PH2
When electrolysis is carried out within the range of less than 7 above, these problems are completely solved, and in addition, the rust resistance and chemical conversion treatability of the steel sheet to be treated are dramatically improved, and the present invention is completed. It came to.

Although the detailed mechanism of the effect of the present invention is not clear, first, by electrolysis with a weak acid to a neutral solution, nonuniform and excessive dissolution as in the case of using a strong acid solution is avoided, and a uniform and smooth solution is obtained. That the surface is dissolved, and the mixed solution of oxycarboxylic acid, which is the electrolytic solution of the present invention, and its salt each has an excellent PH buffering effect,
It is considered to be a result of having a property of easily forming a water-soluble chelate compound with a metal ion.

For example, according to an example of the prior art, PH was adjusted to 3.

In the example of the present invention in which the PH was adjusted to 3, the change in PH when continuous electrolysis was performed at the current density of 10 was the result of continuous electrolysis under the same conditions with a mixed solution of 0.1 M sodium citrate and citric acid. It is shown in FIG.

As is clear from FIG. 1, in the sodium sulfate + sulfuric acid mixed solution, the dissolved PH increases early during continuous electrolysis, whereas in the sodium citrate + citric acid mixed solution of the present invention, its PH buffering capacity is increased. As a result, there is almost no change. Particularly, in the case of the conventional anodic electrolysis, the increase in PH is remarkable, and a large amount of precipitate is produced in the sodium sulfate + sulfuric acid mixed solution with the increase in PH.

Now, when the steel sheet to be treated is used as the anode, the dissolution of the steel sheet surface is prioritized, and the reaction of is the rate-determining, so it is considered that the PH of the entire bath is increased, which is governed by the PH increase due to the reaction of the cathode surface. .

On the other hand, in the mixed solution of the oxycarboxylic acid and its salt in the present invention, first, the PH of the interface and the entire bath are stably maintained by the PH buffering ability, and at the same time, the metal ions eluted at the interface are immediately oxidized. It seems that an aqueous solution chelate compound is formed with carvone, and thereby the precipitation is suppressed (in contrast, in a conventional bath such as the mixed solution of sodium sulfate + sulfuric acid in the above example, it is immediately precipitated as a hydroxide or other salt. ).

Therefore, the object to be treated that has been electrolytically treated in the treatment bath of the present invention, the PH of the interface is stably maintained during electrolysis, which promotes uniform acid bath dissolution, and at the same time the metal ions eluted at the interface are water. It does not precipitate or adsorb as an oxide or other salt on the surface to be treated, but immediately diffuses in the bath as a water-soluble chelate compound. In addition, by using a weak acid to neutral solution, it helps to finish on a smooth surface rather than a porous surface as in the case of a strong acid.The pickling residue and treatment solution are smoothed by subsequent washing with water. It is presumed that a very clean and active surface is thus obtained after being removed from the surface to be treated.

However, if it is PH7 or more, the pickling ability is reduced, and the precipitation formation cannot be sufficiently suppressed, and if it is less than PH2, the uneven dissolution of the steel sheet rapidly progresses, and a sufficient cleaning effect cannot be obtained. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the pH of the treatment liquid to a range of 2 or more and less than 7.

Further, the bath composition and temperature of the present electrolytic treatment, electrolysis current density, polarity (only anodic electrolysis using the steel sheet to be treated as an anode, only cathodic electrolysis using the cathode, anodic-cathodic electrolysis or cathodic-anodic electrolysis are performed with ambipolarity, respectively. If the conditions such as treatment time are within the above-mentioned PH range, the effect can be sufficiently obtained under all conditions by adjusting to the conditions necessary for adjusting the appearance according to the surface cleaning of the steel sheet to be treated. It has been shown to be demonstrated.

In particular, in the case of the sulfuric acid electrolytic pickling of the conventional method, as shown in the photograph of FIG. 2, the steel sheet surface is unevenly excessively edged and becomes porous, and the pickling residue remains adsorbed as it is. As shown in FIG. 3, the phosphate crystal is coarsened by the phosphate chemical conversion treatment, and non-uniformity and some non-generated portions are observed. However, in the methods of the present invention, such a phenomenon was not observed under any of the treatment conditions, and as shown in FIG. 4, a clean steel plate surface was exhibited, and as shown in FIG. A dense and good phosphate film is formed.
