Estimating the term…
A metal surface is processed with dipping by a first zinc phosphating solution in which a fluoride complex and a simple fluoride are contained and a concentration of this simple fluoride is 200 to 300 mg/l on a basis converted into the HF concentration and that of the fluoride complex is in a mole ratio with the simple fluoride converted into the HF as shown as, [fluoride complex]/[simple fluoride].gtoreq.0.01, and then the surface is processed with spraying by a second zinc phosphating solution in which a simple fluoride concentration is 500 mg/l or less and higher than that in said first zinc phosphating solution. Thus, on a metal surface is formed a zinc phosphate coating film which is suitable for electrodeposition coating, particular for cationic electrodeposition coating, and superior in coating film adhesion, corrosion-resistance, particularly resistance for warm brine, and prevention of scab-corrosion.
A process for phosphating a metal surface to make thereon a zinc phosphate coating film, wherein a metal surface is brought in contact with a zinc phosphating solution, comprising dipping the metal surface into a first zinc phosphating solution containing a fluoride complex and a simple fluoride, wherein the concentration of the simple fluoride is 200 to 300 mg/l on a basis converted into the HF concentration and a concentration of the fluoride complex is shown as, (fluoride complex)/(simple fluoride).gtoreq.0.01 in a mole ratio with the simple fluoride converted into the HF concentration, and then spraying a second zinc phosphating solution having a simple fluoride concentration of 500 mg/l or less on a basis converted into the HF concentration, and wherein the simple fluoride concentration of the second zinc phosphating solution is higher than that of said first zinc phosphating solution.
