Abstract (en)

[origin: US5503733A] PCT No. PCT/EP93/02538 Sec. 371 Date Mar. 28, 1995 Sec. 102(e) Date Mar. 28, 1995 PCT Filed Sep. 20, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO94/08074 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 14, 1994.The invention relates to a process for phosphating galvanized steel surfaces, preferably electrolytically or hot-dip galvanized surfaces of steel strip, by treating them in a bath or spray with acidic aqueous phosphating solutions, wherein the workpieces are given a d.c. cathodic treatment at the same time. In the process, (a) the phosphating solutions contain Zn+2 cations in the range from 0.1 to 5 g/l, PO4-3 anions in the range from 5 to 50 g/l, NO3- anions in the range from 0.1 to 50 g/l, Mn+2 cations in the range from 0.1 to 5 g/l, and Cu+2 cations in the range from 0.001 to 1 g/l; (b) the following conditions are used: pH of the phosphating solution in the range from 1.5 to 4.5, temperature of the phosphating solution in the range from 10 DEG to 80 DEG C., treatment time in the range from 1 to 300 sec; and (c) the workpieces are also cathodically treated with a direct current with a density in the range from 0.01 to 100 mA/cm2 during phosphating.
