Abstract (en)

[origin: DE19733972A1] The invention relates to a method for the alkaline passivation of galvanised and alloy-galvanised steel surfaces and of aluminium in strip plants. According to the invention, the metal surfaces are brought into contact with an alkaline aqueous solution containing complexers and iron, said solution having a free alkalinity level of between 5 and 20 points and an overall alkalinity level of between 7 and 30 points and containing 0.1 to 1 g/l magnesium ions, 0.1 to 1 g/l iron (III) ions and 0.5 to 5 g/l amino or hydroxycarboxylate ions. A repassivation with or without chromium can then be carried out.
