Definitions
- the invention relates to a production process for producing an iron-tin alloy layer on a packaging steel substrate and to a substrate provided with said layer.
- Tin mill products include tinplate, electrolytic chromium coated steel (ECCS, a lso referred to as tin free steel or TFS), a nd blackplate, the uncoated steel .
- Packaging steels are normally provided as tinplate or as TFS, onto which an organic coating can be applied.
- TFS electrolytic chromium coated steel
- the prod uction of TFS currently involves the use of hexavalent chromium, which is a hazardous substance that is potentially harmful to the environment and constitutes a risk in terms of worker safety.
- Packaging steel is generally provided in single and double reduced tin mill products.
- Si ng le Red uced (SR) prod uct is cold rolled d i rectly to the fi n ished ga uge, then recrystallisation annealed. Recrystallisation is brought about by continuous annealing or batch annealing the cold rolled material . After annea ling the material is usually temper rolled, typically applying a thickness reduction of 1 - 2%, to improve material properties.
- Double Reduced (DR) product is given a first cold reduction to reach an intermediate gauge, recrystallisation annealed and then given another cold reduction to the final gauge.
- the resulting DR product is stiffer, harder, and stronger than SR, allowing customers to utilise lighter gauge steel in their application.
- These uncoated, cold rolled, recrystallisation annealed SR and DR packaging steels are referred to as blackplate.
- Tinplate is characterised by its excellent corrosion resistance and weldability. TFS typically excels in adhesion to organic coatings and retention of coating integrity at temperatures exceeding the melting point of tin. Tinplate is supplied within a range of coating weights, normally between 1.0 and 11.2 g/m 2 , which are usually applied by electrolytic deposition. Electrolytic Chromium Coated Steel (ECCS) or Tin Free Steel (TFS) consists of a blackplate product which has been coated with a metal chromium layer overlaid with a film of chromium oxide, both applied by electrolytic deposition. TFS can also be supplied within a range of coating weights for both the metal and chromium oxide coating, typically ranging between 20 - 110 and 2 - 20 mg/m 2 , respectively. Both tinplate and TFS can be delivered with equal coating specification . -
- differential coated strip for both sides of the steel strip, or with different coating weights per side, the latter being referred to as differential coated strip.
- a coated substrate for packaging applications comprising 1. a recrystallisation annealed single reduced steel substrate (SR blackplate) or 2. a double reduced substrate which was subjected to recrystallisation annealing between the first and second cold rolling treatment (DR blackplate), wherein one or both sides of the SR or DR blackplate substrate is coated with an iron-tin alloy layer which contains at least 80 weight percent (wt.%) of FeSn (50 at.% tin and 50 at.% iron) and wherein the iron-tin alloy layer was formed by diffusion annealing an electrodeposited tin layer at a temperature T a of at least 513°C for an annealing time t a sufficient to convert the tin layer i nto the iron-tin a lloy layer, followed by fast cooling in a non-oxidising cooling medium, while keeping the coated substrate in an . .
- FeSn is the compound having 50 atomic percent (at.%) tin and 50 at.% iron. It is the intention of the inventors that this iron-tin layer consists substantially or completely of FeSn.
- the ad hesion and corrosion performa nce of the coated substrate can be en ha nced by a pplyi ng a conversion layer onto the i ron-tin alloy outer surface, specifically excluding the use of hexavalent chromium or chromates.
- This substrate can be used to replace TFS, considering the large similarities in product performance beca use of its adhesion to organic coatings, corrosion resista nce a nd retention of coating integrity at temperatures exceeding the melting point of tin. The latter is particularly important when applying a polymer coating e.g . by extrusion coating or laminating because the surface temperature of the metal substrate in these processes may very well exceed the melting temperature of tin, which is about 232°C.
- US3285790 discloses a process for continuous annealing of tin coated full-hard steel, which has been tin coated in between two cold rolling steps, to offer a more economic route for the production of thin tinplate, with steel gauges in between 0.025 - 0.22 mm (0.001" - 0.0088").
- the continuous annealing process described in US3285790 is primarily aimed at achieving recrystallisation of the bulk steel and involves heating the strip to temperatu res between 649 a nd 982 °C ( 1200 to 1800 °F). These high annealing temperatures do not result in an FeSn layer according to our invention but in a mixed iron-tin alloy layer, which is reported to be very hard and brittle and does not withstand bending well.
- the iron-tin alloy coated substrate produced after continuous annealing should be cold rolled a second time to create a product with DR-type properties of the bulk steel.
- the iron-tin alloy coating will crack severely as a result of the large deformation applied during the second cold rolling step, strongly deteriorating the coating performance properties.
- US4487663 describes the manufacturing of iron-tin alloy coated steel, which specifically requires the use of a cathodic dichromate treatment to form an oxide film onto the iron-tin . .
- the use of such a d ichromate treatment is specifically excluded in our invention.
- the inventors have succeeded in creating an alternative meta l coating to TFS or tinplate for packaging steels by providing a dense and homogeneous iron-tin alloy layer onto SR or DR blackplate products, irrespective of these being batch or continuous recrystallisation annealed prior to diffusion annealing (see figure 4).
- This iron-tin alloy layer can be made by using less than 1 g/m 2 of tin metal.
- the corrosion resistance of this iron-tin layer is excellent when compa red to TFS a nd to tinplate if the latter is made using a similar initial tin coating weight.
- the iron-tin a l loy coati ng does not cha nge physica l ly o r i n terms of chemica l com position afterwards when exposed to temperatures between 200 a nd 600°C, in contrast to conventional tinplate.
- the substrate is provided with an additional organic coating which may e.g . be applied by thermal lamination involving substrate temperatures over 200°C.
- the dry adhesion of organic coatings to the i ron-tin alloy coating was found to be excellent. This is attributed to the composition of the very thin mixed iron-tin oxide layer present on the outer surface.
- the coated substrate according to the invention allows heat resistance welding and thus can be used to make three-piece welded cans.
- the diffusion annealing ti me (t a ) at the diffusion annealing temperature T a is chosen such that the conversion of the tin layer into the iron-tin layer is obtained.
- the predominant and preferably sole iron-tin alloy component in the iron-tin layer is FeSn (i.e. 50 atomic percent (at.%) tin and 50 at.% iron). It should be noted that the co m bi natio n of diffusion annealing time and temperature are interchangeable to a certain extent.
- a high T a and a short t a will result in the formation of the same iron-tin alloy layer than a lower T a and a longer t a .
- the minimum T a of 513°C is required, because at lower temperatures the desired (50: 50) FeSn layer does not form.
- the diffusion annealing does not have to be at a constant temperature, but the temperature profile can also be such that a peak temperature is reached. It is important that the minimum temperature of 513°C is maintained for a sufficiently long time to achieve the desired amount of FeSn in the iron-tin diffusion layer. So the diffusion annealing may take place at a constant temperature T a for a certain period of . .
- the diffusion annealing may, e.g., involve a peak metal temperature of T a .
- the diffusion annealing temperature is not constant. It was fou nd to be preferable to use a d iffusion annealing temperature T a of between 513 and 645°C, preferably of between 513 and 625°C. A lower T a limits the risk of affecting the bulk mechanical properties of the substrate during the diffusion annealing.
- the annealing treatment for forming the FeSn-layer is not intended to ca use recrystallisation of the steel substrate.
- the substrate has a l rea dy bee n s u bj ected to recrysta l l isatio n befo re tinplating. Consequently, the process according to the invention is also applicable to batch- recrystallisation-annealed (BA) blackplate due to the separation of recrystallisation annea ling and a lloying treatment by d iffusion annealing.
- BA batch- recrystallisation-annealed
- Th is ma kes the process interesting for the production of double-reduced (DR) grades or heavy temper-rolled grades, because there the recrystallisation annealing treatment takes place between the two reductions, and the diffusion annealing takes place only after the tinplating after the second reduction.
- the SR-substrate has already recrystallised prior to providing the tin-layer on one or both surfaces.
- the substrate may be the low carbon, extra low ca rbon or ultra low carbon steel grades conventiona lly used for tin mill products.
- the substrate is not su bjected to further extensive red uctions in th ickness after forming of the FeSn-layer.
- a further reduction in thickness may cause the FeSn-layer to develop cracks.
- the reductions as a result of temper rolling (if required) and the red uctions su bj ected to the materia l d u ri ng the prod uctio n of the pa cka g i ng applications do not cause these cracks to form, or if they form, to adversely affect the performance of the coated substrate.
- Temper rolling reductions are normally between 0 and 3%.
- the iron-tin diffusion layer contains at least 85 wt.% of FeSn, prefera bly at least 90 wt.%, more prefera bly at least 95 wt.%.
- the iron-tin alloy is a single phase alloy that consists substantially or completely of FeSn.
- the intention is to achieve as high as possible weight percentage of the single phase FeSn alloy phase in the iron-tin alloy coating layer.
- this heat treatment a lso affects the mechanica l properties of the bulk steel substrate, which is the result of a combination of material ageing and recovery effects.
- the impact on the mechanical properties of the bulk steel substrate varies with steel composition, e.g. carbon content of the steel, and mechanical processing history of the material, e.g . amount of cold rolling reduction, batch or continuous annealing. It was found that the microstructure of the steel substrate does not change after a short exposure to the elevated temperatures, i .e. between 513 to 625 °C required for creating the iron-tin surface alloy. In case of low carbon steels (typically 0.05 to 0.15 . .
- the substrate consists of an interstitial-free ultra- low ca rbo n stee l, such as a tita n i u m sta bi l ised or tita n i u m-niobium stabilised interstitial-free steel.
- an interstitial-free ultra- low ca rbo n stee l such as a tita n i u m sta bi l ised or tita n i u m-niobium stabilised interstitial-free steel.
- the coated substrate is further provided with a conversion coating to red uce the pitting corrosion sensitivity of the materia l a nd enhance the adhesion to organic coatings, preferably wherein the coated substrate is first pretreated to increase the surface tension of the outer surface prior to application of a conversion coating.
- the wet adhesion of organic coatings to the iron-tin alloy coating could be further improved by applying a conversion layer on top of the mixed surface oxide.
- the wet ad hesion performa nce has been determined by e.g . exposing the organic coated material to various sterilisation med ia, used to simulate processing conditions applied when filling huma n and pet food into cans.
- the wet adhesion also improved after a cathodic treatment of an activated surface in a 10 mM KCr(S0 4 )2 x 12H 2 0 electrolyte at 20 °C (pH adjusted to 2.3 by adding sulphuric acid solution), whereby a current density of 2.5 A/dm 2 was a pplied for 5 s.
- Other embodiments of this conversion treatment are also possible, e.g. using another salt as source for trivalent chromium ions in the electrolyte, a different current density or a different treatment time.
- the iron-tin alloy coating according to the invention is also very resistant to sulphur staining.
- a well-known issue with conventional tinplate is that during sterilisation of food stuffs containing sulphur (like in sterilisation involving . .
- the effect of the pre-treatment is maybe not a passivating effect, but rather a shielding effect and it also leads to a better adhesion.
- a conversion coating d ipping For the application of a conversion coating d ipping, spraying or electrochemica lly assisted deposition can be used, while some conversion coating chemistries require drying after application. It was found that the homogeneous application of various conversion layers cou ld be improved by pretreati ng the i ron-tin a lloy coati ng to increase the surface tension level of the outer surface. This pretreatment can exist of va rious methods li ke d ipping i n a n acid ic etching flu id, e.g .
- an efficient pretreatment consisted of dipping the substrate provided with the iron-tin alloy coating into a sodium carbonate solution for a short time, typically a second, while passing a cathodic current through the substrate at a current density of 0.8 A/dm 2 .
- An additional benefit of applying a conversion layer on top of the iron-tin alloy is that it suppresses pitting corrosion and cathodic delamination.
- a coated substrate for packaging applications wherein the coated substrate is further provided with a n organic coating, consisting of either a thermoset (i.e. lacquer) or thermoplastic single or multi-layer polymer coating .
- a n organic coating consisting of either a thermoset (i.e. lacquer) or thermoplastic single or multi-layer polymer coating .
- the high melting point of the iron-tin alloy makes the coated substrate extremely suitable for coating with a polymer layer, either by direct extrusion, extrusion followed by la mination or film lamination as the temperature req gnad for the polymer to ad here to the substrate may easily exceed the melting temperature of a conventional tin layer, such as when applying PET in a conventional process. This is a clear advantage of the coated substrate according to the invention.
- the coated substrate is provided with a second tin layer, which is optionally reflowed, and to which an hexavalent-chromium- free passivation treatment is optionally applied .
- An additional tin layer is applied on top of the a lloy layer, preferably by electrodeposition, which can be subsequently flowmelted, and to which a passivation treatment is applied, specifically excluding the use of hexavalent chromium or chromates, in order to prevent further oxidation of the ti n s u rfa ce .
- Th is s u bstrate ca n be u sed a s a mo re s usta ina ble su bstitute for conventional tinplate as it requires significantly less tin to achieve a similar product performance, and excludes the use of hexavalent chromium or chromates. - -
- the initial tin coating weight, prior to annealing to form the iron-tin alloy layer is at most 1000 mg/m 2 , preferably between 100 and 600 mg/m 2 of substrate. This is at least a factor 3 lower than conventional ti n plate a nd therefore resu lts i n sig n ifica nt savi ngs both i n electricity (carbon emissions! ) and tin use.
- thermoplastic polymer coating is a polymer coati ng system comprisi ng one or more layers prefera bly comprisi ng polyester, polyolefin, polyimide, or copolymers thereof, or blends thereof.
- Achieving excellent adhesion of the thermoplastic coating to the steel substrate is very important to obtain a good can performance, e.g. like good resistance to corrosion.
- ECCS has been the substrate of choice for use with thermoplastics coatings due to its unrivalled adhesion properties.
- thermoplastic polymer coating is a polymer coating system comprising one or more layers comprising polyester such as PET and/or PBT or, polyolefins such as PE or PP, or copolymers thereof, or blends thereof.
- polyester such as PET and/or PBT or, polyolefins such as PE or PP, or copolymers thereof, or blends thereof.
- a coated substrate for packaging applications wherein both sides of the steel substrate are coated with an iron-tin diffusion layer.
- the substrate can also be applied on two sides of the packaging, i.e. the side becoming the inside of the packaging and the outside are both provided with the iron-tin alloy layer. This means that the amount of tin on both sides can be minimised, and the protection against corrosion or aesthetic deterioration of the outside of the packaging is prevented by the good corrosion properties of the iron- tin layer optionally also provided with an organic topcoat such as a polymer coating layer or a lacquer.
- the iron-tin alloy layer may also be part of the coating system(s) on a differential coated strip.
- a process fo r producing a coated substrate for packaging applications by producing an iron-tin alloy layer on a blackplate steel substrate comprising the steps of: . .
- the process according to the invention can be incorporated in a modified standard tinplating line.
- the temperature T a of at least 513°C ensures that the iron-tin alloy phase is formed rapidly.
- the amount of tin needed on each surface for forming a dense and closed iron-tin a l loy layer is preferably at most 1000 mg/m 2 and the inventors found that it is preferable to use between 100 and 600 mg/m 2 of substrate surface. It was found to be preferable to use a diffusion annealing temperature T a of between 513 and 645°C, preferably of between 513 and 625°C. A lower T a limits the risk of affecting the bulk mechanical properties of the substrate during the diffusion annealing.
- a process for producing a coated substrate for packaging applications wherein the iron to tin ratio in the iron-tin alloy is about 1.
- the formation of FeSn in a ratio of 1 : 1 in at.% is preferable, beca use it resu lts i n a dense a nd closed layer, wh ich is crack-free, resistant to deformation, and provides excellent adhesion.
- a process for producing a coated substrate for packaging applications wherein the diffusion annealing is performed immediately upon finishing the first tinplating step, and/or wherein the diffusion annealing comprises a very rapid heating of above 300°C/s in a hydrogen containing atmosphere, such as HNX, to a temperature between 550 and 625°C, and/or wherein the diffusion annealing is followed by rapid cooling at a cooling rate of at least 100°C/s, and/or wherein the cooling is preferably performed in a reducing or inert atmosphere, such as a helium, nitrogen or HNX atmosphere.
- a hydrogen containing atmosphere such as HNX
- Hybrid cooling such as initial cooling with nitrogen, for instance from the top temperature to 300°C followed by a water quench also provided a good surface quality. It was found that cooling in air led to extensive and undesirable oxide growth onto the FeSn-layer leading to bad adhesion properties. - -
- the rapid cooling is achieved by means of water q uench i ng, wherein the water for q uench i ng has a temperatu re between room temperature a nd its boiling temperature, prefera bly wherein the water used fo r quenching has a temperature between 80°C and the boiling temperature, preferably between 85°C and the boiling temperature.
- the dissolved oxygen content in the water should be as low as possible.
- the diffusion annealing process utilises a heating rate preferably exceeding
- a hydrogen containing atmosphere such as HNX containing 5 wt.% hydrogen, preferably to a temperature between 550 and 625°C, and/or
- the diffusion annealing is directly followed by rapid cooling at a cooling rate of at least 100°C/s, preferably of at least 300°C/s, and/or
- the cooling is preferably performed in a reducing or inert medium, such as a HNX or nitrogen atmosphere and/or
- the cooling is preferably performed applying a hot water quench, with a water temperatu re of 85°C, while keeping the substrate with the iron-tin alloy layer(s) shielded from oxygen by maintaining an inert or reducing gas atmosphere, such as HNX gas, prior to quenching.
- a hot water quench with a water temperatu re of 85°C
- an inert or reducing gas atmosphere such as HNX gas
- Hybrid cooling such as initial cooling with nitrogen gas, for instance from the annealing temperature to 300°C followed by a water quench to reach ambient temperatures also provided good results by providing a FeSn alloy layer with a sma ll a mount of surface oxides.
- substrate at very hig h cooling rates exceed ing 300 or 350°C/s, without negatively affecting the surface oxide properties or substrate shape.
- Another option is to apply forced convection methods during quenching, like using an optimised array of spray nozzles directed at the strip surface, to spray cooling water onto to strip to achieve a more homogeneous cooling rate over the strip surface. This method allows the use of lower water tem peratu res, without i ncreasi ng the risk of buckl ing of the stri p.
- Prefera bly the water temperatu re in th is option is below 80°C, more prefera bly between 30 a nd 70°C.
- Another option is to employ indirect cooling by using cooling rolls.
- This method has the adva ntage of preventi ng d i rect contact of the cooli ng medium with the strip, which clearly simplifies the issue of having to maintain a non- oxidising gas atmosphere while cooling the substrate.
- the maximum annealing temperature is limited to 615°C. The inventors found the highest FeSn content in the iron-tin alloy layer for annealing temperatures ranging from 550°C to just above 600°C.
- a process for producing a coated substrate for packaging wherein the time at T a is at most 4 seconds, preferably at most 2 seconds, and more preferably wherein there is no dwell time at T a .
- the diffusion annealing takes place by heating the substrate to the peak metal temperature of T a after which the substrate is cooled.
- the short dwell time at T a allows the production of the iron-tin alloy layer in an appropriately modified conventional tinplating line a nd, in add ition, the risk of adversely affecting the bulk mechanical properties of the substrate is minimised.
- I n an embodiment a process for producing a coated substrate for packaging applications wherein the iron-tin alloy layer is coated with a second tin layer in a second tinplating step on one or both sides of the substrate, optionally followed by a flowmelting step and/or a passivation treatment of the said second tin layer.
- Th is process prod uces a n a lmost conventiona l tinplate prod uct but with a significantly lower tin weight per unity of surface.
- the optional passivation treatment is a hexavalent-chromium-free passivation treatment.
- the application of an additional tin layer on top of the iron-tin alloy can be realised by a second tinplating step, preceded by d ipping the iron-tin a lloy coated strip in a n acid ic solution, e.g . like a sulphuric acid solution, to activate the surface prior to electrodeposition .
- a n acid ic solution e.g . like a sulphuric acid solution
- the resulting product ca n be used d irectly for ca n ma king, but requires application of a passivation treatment to prevent excessive growth of tin oxides on the su rface.
- hexava lent- chromium-free passivation treatments can be applied.
- a process for producing a coated substrate for packaging applications wherein the iron-tin a lloy layer or both iron-tin alloy layers is/are coated with a conversion layer and/or wherein the coated substrate is provided w ith a n o rg a n ic coati ng , co n si sti ng of eith er a the rmoset ( i . e . l a cq u e r) o r thermoplastic single or multi-layer polymer coating.
- the diffusion annealing treatment for forming the iron-ti n a l loyi ng layer is ada pted to promote ageing in the SR substrate or DR substrate and/or recovery of the DR substrate.
- an apparatus for producing a strip of coated substrate for packaging a pplications by prod uci ng a n iron-ti n a l loy layer on a packag i ng steel su bstrate comprising:
- One or more tinplating cells for providing the strip with a first tin layer onto one or both sides, optionally followed by one or more rinsing tanks for removing excess electrolyte;
- a heating section for diffusion annealing the first tin layer at a temperature T a for an annealing time t a sufficient to convert the first tin layer into an iron-tin alloy layer or layers followed by a fast cooling section, preferably wherein the heating rate of the heating section is at least 300°C/s, and/or wherein the atmosphere in the heating section is a hydrogen containing atmosphere, such as HNX;
- the further tinplating cells optionally being preceded by a pretreatment section to activate the iron-tin alloy surface, for providing the strip with a second tin layer onto one or both sides, optionally followed by one or more rinsing tanks for removing excess electrolyte;
- a passivation section e.g. to apply a hexavalent- chromium-free passivation layer.
- a process for producing a coated substrate for packaging applications wherein the heating treatment for forming the diffusion layer is adapted to promote ageing in the SR substrate or DR substrate and/or recovery of the DR substrate. It was found that the ageing treatment could be tuned (temperature, annealing atmosphere and annealing time being the main parameters) such that a sig nifica nt increase in yield strength is obta ined in SR-substrates. The assessment of the mag n itude of these effects and the choice of the relevant parameters is well within the scope of the abilities of the skilled person.
- the tinplate After tinning the tinplate is subjected to the diffusion annealing to produce the FeSn iron-tin a lloy layer.
- the prod uct which is then obta ined ca n be provided with a second ti n-layer and optionally reflown, and/or provided with a conversion coating, passivation or an orga nic coating .
- the so-called temper rolling step of the SR-substrate i.e after recrystallisation annealing and before tinning is not shown in figure 4.
- Packaging steel sheet samples (grade TH 340) were cleaned thoroughly in a commercial alkaline cleaner (Chela Clean KC-25 supplied by Foster Chemicals), rinsed i n DI water, pickled in a 50 g/l sulphuric acid solution at room temperature for 5 s, and rinsed again. Then, the samples were plated with a tin coating of 600 mg/m 2 from a MSA bath that is commonly used for the production of tinplate in a continuous strip plating line. A current density of 10 A/dm 2 was applied for 1 s.
- the samples were annealed in a reducing gas atmosphere, using HNX containing 5% H 2 (g).
- the samples were heated from room temperature to 600°C with a heati ng rate of 100°C/s. Immed iately after the sa mple had reached its pea k temperature of 600°C, one sample was cooled down by means of intense blowing with helium gas and another sample was cooled down by means of a water quench.
- the sa mple is q uenched i n cold water, ma ny dents a re formed i n the sa m ple, a phenomenon known as 'cooling buckling'.
- 'cooling buckling a phenomenon known as 'cooling buckling'.
- the cooling rate was 100°C/s. Cooling by mea ns of the hot water quench goes much faster. In about 1 second the sample is cooled down from 600°C to 80°C, being the temperature of the water in the quench tank.
- Figure 5 shows the effect of a temper rolling reduction (Figure 5b) and a large cold rolling deformation (Figu re 5c) on the formatio n of cra cks i n the FeSn layer, illustrating why in a process of producing a DR-product the FeSn layer should be formed after the second cold rolling step as illustrated in figure 4.
- An FeSn layer formed between the two rolling steps would be subjected to too high a deformation and crack. Temper rolling reductions do not result in cracking (see Figure 5b).
- Figiure 6 shows a schematic representation of the coating system produced according to the invention.
- Figure 6a shows the known tinplate which is remelted and passivated with a chromate (Cr(VI)-treatment) and
- Figure 6b known ECCS substrate (TFS).
