Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021185449A1] The invention provides a method for generating a phosphate conversion coating on a surface of a steel flat product provided with a metallic protective coating, the polluting effect of which method is minimized. To this end, according to the invention, a nickel-free aqueous phosphating solution is applied to the metallic protective coating, which solution contains 0.1 - 10 g/l phosphoric acid, 0.5 - 15 g/l of a zinc salt, 1 - 100 g/l of an alkaline earth metal salt, and 0.5 - 25 g/l of a monovalent or polyvalent organic carboxylic acid comprising 1-8 carbon atoms or a salt of said carboxylic acid and optionally at least one additive selected from the group of surfactants and iron salts, in contents of up to 10 g/l each.
