Abstract
The present invention provides a method for producing a coated stainless steel member, comprising: performing Wood's strike nickel plating on a stainless steel substrate, and then performing cationic electrodeposition on a formed Wood's strike nickel plating layer.
Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a coated stainless steel member, and more specifically a stainless steel member having a coating excellent in adhesion and corrosion prevention. In particular, the present invention relates to a stainless steel fuel inlet pipe (FIP) for an automobile fuel tank.
- 2. Brief Description of the Related Art
- In one kind of the conventionally known methods for coating a stainless steel member, strike nickel plating is performed on a stainless steel substrate. For example, several methods are known such as a method including Wood's strike nickel plating, a subsequent chromate treatment and phosphate treatment, and spray coating (Japanese Patent Application Publication No. Sho 63-192877); a method including strike nickel plating, subsequent nickel plating, and coating (Japanese Patent Application Publication No. Hei 9-268398 and Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2005-144895), and a method including Wood's strike nickel plating, and subsequent coating by forming a thin polymer film by reduction-electrolytic polymerization (Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2000-212799). However, in any of these methods, coating is performed on a strike nickel plating after a treatment for improving the adhesion is performed on the strike nickel plating. This is because of the conventional recognition that “a coating film easily peels off when coating is performed directly on a nickel strike plating” (in Lower Left column on Page 2 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. Sho 63-192877).
- In general, for coating a material with good adhesion, a pre-coating surface treatment such as a zinc phosphate treatment, a chromate treatment, or a zirconium treatment is carried out. When the material is made of iron or aluminum, a chemical conversion film is formed by a reaction (dissolution and deposition) between the material and a surface treatment liquid. The coating adhesion with the material is secured by hydrogen bonding or an anchor effect caused by the chemical conversion film. However, in a case of coating on stainless steel, a surface treatment film such as a zinc phosphate film formed for enhancing the coating adhesion cannot be formed, and hence a sufficient coating adhesion cannot be obtained, because a stable oxide film is formed on a surface of the stainless steel . For this reason, peeling and corrosion occur in a secondary adhesion test for hot-salt water resistance or a chipping test. As shown in Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2006-231207, thick coating in a thickness of 150 to 400 μm has been attempted for improvement in chipping resistance, prevention of permeation of salt water, and improvement in adhesion. However, such a method is not economical.
- In the Meantime, in areas heavily inflicted with salt injury due to sea-shore salt or snow melting salt spread in a large amount, stainless steel FIPs have been used instead of conventional iron FIPs. However, even in the case of stainless steel FIPs, the corrosion resistance is insufficient at welded portions and the like. Hence, electrodeposition coating as shown in Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2002-242779 has been carried out. The coating is conducted by other methods such as cationic electrodeposition coating or hexavalent chromium-free water-soluble acrylic-based silicone coating shown in Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2004-230419, and coating using an acrylic paint, an alkyd paint, a urethane paint, an epoxide paint, or the like in the form of a cationic aqueous solution or emulsion shown in Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2005-206064. However, it is difficult to perform electrodeposition excellent in adhesion and corrosion prevention on a stainless steel substrate, as described above.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a coating method capable of performing coating excellent in adhesion and corrosion resistance on a stainless steel substrate by an economical and simple process. The coating method makes it possible to obtain sufficient coating adhesion and sufficient corrosion resistance even with a thin film coating of 25 to 30 μm, for example. Another object of the present invention is to provide a coated stainless steel member being chromium-free and having high corrosion resistance, and in particular, a coated stainless steel FIP.
- The present inventors have conducted earnest study to achieve the above objects. As a result, the present inventors have found the following fact. Specifically, by performing Wood's strike nickel plating excellent in adhesion to stainless steel on a stainless steel member, a hard oxide film formed on the stainless steel can be removed, and reformation of the oxide film can be prevented. Subsequently, cationic electrodeposition is performed on such a Wood's strike nickel plating film. In this manner, extremely excellent adhesion between the cationic electrodeposition and the Wood's strike nickel plating can be achieved without forming any film for improving coating film adhesion, and sufficient coating adhesion and corrosion resistance can be obtained on a stainless steel substrate by thin film coating. This finding has led to the completion of the present invention. Specifically, the present invention provides a coated stainless steel member comprising: a stainless steel substrate; and a Wood's strike nickel plating layer and a cationic electrodeposition coating layer which are stacked in this order on the stainless steel substrate.
- Moreover, the present invention provides a method for producing a coated stainless steel member, the method comprising: performing Wood's strike nickel plating on a stainless steel substrate; and then performing cationic electrodeposition coating on a formed Wood's strike nickel plating layer.
- In a case of coating on stainless steel, the present invention makes it possible to obtain sufficient coating adhesion and corrosion resistance with a thin film coating of 25 to 30 μm.
- A method for producing a coated stainless steel member of the present invention comprises: performing Wood's strike nickel plating on a stainless steel substrate; and then performing cationic electrodeposition on a formed Wood's strike nickel plating layer. The method of the present invention makes it possible to provide a coated stainless steel member comprising: a stainless steel substrate; and a Wood's strike nickel plating layer and a cationic electrodeposition coating layer which are stacked in this order on the stainless steel substrate.
- As for a basic bath composition for the Wood's strike nickel plating used in the present invention, a known Wood's strike nickel plating bath can be used, and the bath is composed of nickel chloride and hydrochloric acid. The concentration of nickel chloride in the bath is preferably 200 to 300 g/L, and more preferably 220 to 240 g/L. Meanwhile, the concentration of hydrochloric acid (35% aqueous hydrogen chloride solution) in the bath is preferably 100 ml/L to 300 ml/L, and more preferably 125 to 230 ml/L. In addition, boric acid serving as a buffering agent and an anti-mist agent can also be added to the Wood's strike nickel plating bath. The concentration of boric acid in the bath is, for example, 10 to g/L, and preferably 25 to 35 g/L. Meanwhile, the concentration of the anti-mist agent in the bath is, for example, 0.1 to 10 g/L, and preferably 0.5 to 3 g/L. Moreover, the kind of the anti-mist agent is not limited, and an example thereof is DS-55 (manufactured by DIPSOL CHEMICALS Co., Ltd.). The pH of the Wood's strike nickel plating bath is generally 1 or lower.
- The temperature at which the Wood's strike nickel plating is performed by using the Wood's strike nickel plating bath may be normal temperature, and preferably 20° C. to 60° C., and more preferably 40 to 50° C. The cathode current density for performing the plating is, for example, 0.5 A/dm2 or higher, preferably 1 to 10 A/dm2, and more preferably 3 to 8 A/dm2. The time for which the plating is performed is preferably set so that the product of the plating time and the cathode current density can be 100 (second×A/dm2) or larger. The product is more preferably 150 to 1000 (second×A/dm2). The thickness of a nickel plating film obtained under such plating conditions is generally in the range from 0.005 to 0.3 μm, and preferably from 0.02 to 0.25.
- Cationic electrodeposition is performed on the Wood's strike nickel plating layer. As the cationic electrodeposition, a known cationic electrodeposition can be employed. For example, a stainless steel member subjected to the Wood's strike nickel plating is immersed in a cationic electrodeposition paint composed of a resin, a pigment, and the like, which meet the purpose of the coating. An article to be coated is used as a cathode (−), and an electrode plate set in a diaphragm chamber in an electrodeposition tank is used as an anode (+). A direct current is applied across the cathode (−) and the anode (+), so that a coating film is deposited on the article to be coated. After that, a water-washing step is conducted. Then, the deposited coating film is dried and cured by baking in a baking furnace. Thus, a coating film excellent in adhesion to the stainless steel can be obtained. Examples of the cationic electrodeposition paint include acrylic paints, alkyd paints, urethane paints, epoxy paints, and the like. The paints are provided as cationic aqueous solutions or emulsions.
- In the method for producing a coated stainless steel member of the present invention, the Wood's strike nickel plating layer may be subjected to a zinc phosphate treatment, before the cationic electrodeposition is performed. This makes it possible to prevent decrease in adhesion of the coating due to an electric corrosion reaction caused by contact with other metal. As the zinc phosphate treatment, known zinc phosphate treatments used for ordinary coating can be used as they are.
- In the method for producing a coated stainless steel member of the present invention, it is preferable to degrease the stainless steel substrate, before the Wood's strike nickel plating is performed on the stainless steel substrate. By removing oil on the stainless steel, the effect of the Wood's strike nickel plating layer can be exerted more efficiently. As a degreasing agent and a degreasing method employed in the present invention, any known degreasing agent and any known degreasing method can be employed as appropriate. Examples of the degreasing agent include alkaline immersion degreasing agents, alkaline electrolysis degreasing agents, acidic emulsion degreasing agents, solvent cleaning agents, and the like. However, the degreasing agent is not limited thereto. Preferably, an alkaline cathode electrolysis degreasing agent is used. As the degreasing method, for example, an electrolysis immersion treatment is conducted generally at 30 to 55° C. for about several minutes. If needed, a preliminary degreasing treatment can also be conducted before the degreasing treatment.
- The present invention is applicable to stainless steel members required to have high corrosion resistance. In particular, the present invention is preferable for a stainless steel fuel inlet pipe for an automobile fuel tank.
- Next, the present invention is described while showing Examples and Comparative Examples.
