They are not generally recommended unless followedby a conversion treatment, such as described in Methods 4, 5,6, or 7.4.2 Method 2, Sulfuric Acid, Chromium Trioxide EtchThis treatment provides a clean and uniform surface withoutundue etching, and is effec

17、tive for removing oil and waterstains and any film formed during heat-treatment. The etchingsolution is prepared by adding 1 gal (3.78 L) of concentratedsulfuric acid and 45 oz (1.28 kg) of chromium trioxide to 9 gal(34 L) of water. It is used at a temperature of 160 to 180F (71to 82C) (depending on

18、 the alloy and the amount of film) forabout 5 min and is followed by a water rinse. This treatmentproduces a passive surface suitable for painting under mild tointermediate exposure conditions and where clear finishes areto be applied.4.3 Method 3, Alcoholic Phosphoric Acid CleanerThistreatment invo

19、lves the use of an aqueous solution of phos-phoric acid (10 to 15 volume %) with alcohol or other organicsolvents, together with wetting agents, emulsifying agents, etc.The solution may be applied by swabbing or dipping at roomtemperature (70 to 90F (21 to 32C), and should be allowedto remain on the

20、 surface for several minutes, followed bythorough rinsing with clean water. A very thin phosphate filmis formed which tends to protect the metal and promote paintadhesion under mild to intermediate exposure conditions.NOTE 2U.S. Military Specification MIL-M-10578B describes a treat-ment of this type

21、.4.4 Method 4, Crystalline Phosphate TreatmentThissurface-coating method consists in reacting the aluminumsurface in a zinc-acid-phosphate solution containing oxidizingagents and other salts for accelerating the coating action. Thealuminum surface is converted to a finely crystalline, phos-phate coa

22、ting of the proper texture adapted to inhibit corrosionand increase the adherence and durability of any applied paintfilm. It is recommended for product finishes. The phosphatecoating process may be carried out by immersion or sprayapplication. The aluminum surface is converted to the phos-phate coa

23、ting by immersion in the processing solution for 30 sto 4 min at 125 to 140F (51 to 60C), or by spraying thesolution for 10 s to 2 min at 125 to 160F (51 to 71C).NOTE 3Before applying the treatments according to Methods 4, 5, 6,and 7 of Type B, the aluminum surfaces should be freed of grease, oil, o

24、rother foreign material by means of the procedure described in Method 3of Type A, Method 1 of Type B, or any other suitable method.NOTE 4This treatment complies with the requirements of U.S. FederalSpecification TT-C-490.4.5 Method 5, Amorphous Phosphate TreatmentThis pro-cess comprises treatment of

25、 clean aluminum surfaces in awarm (95 to 130F (35 to 54C) aqueous solution comprisingphosphoric, and hydrofluoric acids, chromium trioxide or asolution thereof. The aluminum surface is converted to a thin,adherent, amorphous coating, iridescent green to gray-green incolor, depending upon the aluminu

26、m alloy treated, whichinhibits corrosion and increases the adherence and durability ofapplied paint films. This method is recommended for use underthe more severe conditions of service, and for product finishes.The coating process may be carried out by immersion or sprayapplication. The time of trea

27、tment will vary from 15 to 45 s forthe spray process, and from 30 s to 3 min for the immersionapplication (see Note 3 and Note 5).NOTE 5Most of the treatments conforming to Methods 5, 6, and 7 ofType B comply with the requirements of U. S. Military SpecificationMIL-DTL-5541.4.6 Method 6, Carbonate C

28、hromate TreatmentThis pro-cess comprises treatment in a hot (180 to 190F (82 to 88C)dilute solution of sodium carbonate and potassium chromatefor periods from 2 to 20 min, followed by a water rinse. Thesurface is then given a final treatment in hot 5% potassiumdichromate solution, followed by a fina

29、l rinse. The treatmentproduces a thin, adherent, conversion coating on the surface,increasing the corrosion resistance of the metal and promotingpaint adhesion. This method is recommended for use under themore severe conditions of service and for product finishes (seeNote 3 and Note 5).4.7 Method 7,

30、 Amorphous Chromate TreatmentThis pro-cess comprises treatment of clean aluminum surfaces inaqueous chromium trioxide solutions containing suitable ac-celerating agents such as fluoride-containing materials. Thealuminum surface is converted to an adherent, amorphous,mixed metallic oxide coating, irr

31、idescent golden to light-brownin color, which increases the corrosion-resistance and theadherence and durability of any applied paint film. Thismethod is recommended for use under the more severeconditions of service and for product finishes. The coatingprocess may be carried out by immersion, spray

32、, or brushapplication, at room temperature (70 to 90F (21 to 32C), infrom 15 s to 5 min contact time (see Note 3 and Note 5).4.8 Method 8, Acid-Bound Resinous Treatment (see Note6)This surface treatment involves the use of a suitablyapplied acid-bound resinous film of approximately 0.3 to 0.5mils (7

33、.6 to 12.7 m) thickness. The treatment is based on threeprimary components: a hydroxyl-containing resin; a pigmentcapable of reacting with the resin and an acid; and an acidcapable of insolubilizing the resin by reacting with the resin,the pigment, and the metal substrate. The aluminum surfaceshould

34、 be prepared by Methods 1, 2, or 3 of Type A (seeSection 3) or chemical treatments, Type B, 4.1 or 4.2 prior tothe application of this treatment. The film may be applied bybrush, spray, or dip. Under normal conditions it should drysufficiently for recoating within 30 min; and within8hitshould not be

35、 softened by organic solvents commonly used inpaint coatings. The film has good adhesion to the metalsubstrate and promotes good adhesion of most subsequentorganic coatings to itself. This method is recommended forsevere service conditions, particularly on fabricated structures,either in the shop or

36、 in the field.NOTE 6Materials meeting the requirements of U.S. Military Specifi-cation MIL-P-15328b may be used to apply Method 8 of Type B.5. Type CAnodic Treatments (see Note 7)5.1 Anodic treatment in either sulfuric acid or chromiumtrioxide electrolyte will provide a protective and inert oxidecoa

37、ting which increases the corrosion-resistance of the metaland promotes paint adhesion. It is recommended where maxi-mum corrosion-resistance by the treatment itself is desired.D1730 09 (2014)2Anodic treatments should not be used on assemblies ofdissimilar metals. The two procedures are as follows:NO

38、TE 7Treatments conforming to Methods 1 and 2 of Type C complywith the requirements of U.S. Military Specification MIL-A-8625.5.2 Method 1, Sulfuric Acid Anodic This treatment con-sists in making the part the anode in a 15% sulfuric acidelectrolyte (by weight) and applying current at a potential ofab

39、out 16 to 18 V and a current density of 12 A/ft2until desiredthickness of coating is obtained.After rinsing in cold water, thecoating is sealed for 10 min by treatment in a boiling solutionof 5% potassium dichromate. This method is not recommendedwhere danger of acid entrapment is encountered.5.3 Me

40、thod 2, Chromium Trioxide Anodic This treatmentconsists in making the part the anode in a 10 weight %chromium trioxide electrolyte at a temperature of 100F (38C)and applying a potential of 40 V for a period of 30 to 60 min.After first rinsing in cold water, the coating is finally rinsed inwater at 1

41、50F (66C) minimum, and dried; an optional finalsealing treatment to obtain maximum protection is obtained byimmersion in a solution containing 0.01 g chromium trioxideper litre of water (0.0013 or 1 gal) at a temperature of 208 to212F (98 to 100C) for 5 min.6. Type DMechanical Treatments6.1 Method 1

42、, Hand or Power Wire-Brushing , or otherabrasive treatment. Wire-brushing, either by hand or power,roughens the surface of the metal and mechanically improvesthe anchorage for superimposed paint films. The disadvantagesare that the natural oxide film on the metal is disrupted and oilor grease films

43、and other foreign matter are not completelyremoved.6.2 Method 2, Sandblasting, where employed on aluminumor its alloys, must be carried out at relatively low pressures andwith a fine silica sand. It roughens the surface and mechani-cally improves the anchorage for paint films, but destroys thenatura

44、l oxide film on the metal. Where used, it should befollowed by an inhibitive chemical treatment.7.
