Abstract
An improved solution and process for preparing an article of titanium or titanium alloy for cold forming reduces the peeling of the applied lubricant film. The aqueous solution contains an organic chelating compound, an aqueous organic macromolecular compound and/or a surfactant in an aqueous acidic (pH 1.5-4.5) solution of a fluoride and a soluble compound of magnesium, calcium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, zinc, and/or molybdenum.
Claims4
A process for cold forming an article of titanium or titanium alloy comprising contacting the surface of the article with an aqueous chemical treatment solution which contains fluoride ion and from 0.1 to 5.0 g/l of at least one type of metal ion selected from the group consisting of magnesium, calcium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, zinc and molybdenum and in which the pH value is 1.5-4.5;
- said solution additionally comprising at least one chemical selected from among the group consisting of the organic chelating compounds, the aqueous organic macromolecular compounds and the surfactants in an amount sufficient to reduce the peeling of the applied film during cold forming and thereafter subjecting the article to cold deformation.
