Benefits of technology

This technology provides an improved way to protect Al alloys from damage caused during manufacturing processes such as acid cleaning treatments used to make them smoother surfaces. By replacing chrome chemistry with another type called TiO2 instead, this new solution allows for better protection against corrosive attacks while maintaining good appearance quality. Additionally, there's no environmental concerns associated with these methods that involve hexavalent chromates.

Problems solved by technology

This patented technical problem addressed by this patents relates to finding alternatives that are less harmful than traditional methods like hexavalent chromated solutions (chromite) while still maintaining their effectiveness against metals such as steel.

Abstract

The invention relates to an aluminum alloy surface treating technology and particularly relates to an aluminum alloy surface titanium dioxide conversion coating solution and a using method thereof. The aluminum alloy surface titanium dioxide conversion coating solution is an aqueous solution which contains titanium salt and fluoride, and the pH value of the aqueous solution is regulated to 3.5-4.5 by using non-reducing acid. After being pretreated, the surface of aluminum alloy is soaked into the aluminum alloy surface titanium dioxide conversion coating solution for 1-15min, thus a conversion coating is formed on the surface of the aluminum alloy. According to the invention, the chemical conversion treatment is carried out by using titanium salt instead of chromic acid, the surface of the aluminum alloy is etched by using low-concentration fluorine ions, and titanyl sulfate or titanyl nitride is induced to hydrolyze to generate a titanium dioxide conversion coating on the surface of the aluminum alloy, wherein the titanium dioxide conversion coating is uniform in color and luster and excellent in corrosion resistance. The titanium salt is nonpoisonous, the conversion solution is simple in component, no great number of energy is consumed, and no environment hazards are caused, therefore, a clean production process is achieved.
