Abstract
An aqueous phosphoric bonding solution consists essentially of phosphoric acid, a source of magnesium ions, and a leachable corrosion inhibitor. The bonding solution is stable with respect to inorganic metal particles, such as aluminum, which are admixed to the bonding solution for the preparation of a coating slurry. Metal parts coated with the coating compositions have very satisfactory properties such as heat and corrosion resistance.
Claims15
An aqueous bonding solution prepared by a process comprising:
- (i) combining water, phosphoric acid, a source of magnesium ions, and optionally a source of borate ions to form a buffered binder solution;
- (ii) adding to the buffered binder solution a leachable corrosion inhibitor in an amount of from about 2 to about 15 g per 100 ml, wherein the leachable corrosion inhibitor is selected from the group consisting of zinc aluminum orthophosphate, zinc aluminum tripolyphosphate, aluminum tripolyphosphate, zinc aluminum polyphosphate, strontium aluminum polyphosphate, modified strontium aluminum polyphosphate, modified zinc calcium polyphosphate, zinc molybdate phosphate, and combinations thereof;
- wherein the bonding solution has a pH from about 2 to about 4.5 and is substantially free of zinc ions and aluminum ions in excess of quantities present from the leachable corrosion inhibitor.
A coating composition comprising (i) an aqueous bonding solution consisting essentially of phosphoric acid, a source of magnesium ions, optionally a source of borate ions, and a leachable corrosion inhibitor in an amount of from about 2 to about 15 g per 100 ml and (ii) and metallic particles, wherein the bonding solution has a pH from about 2 to about 4.5 and has an amount of hexavalent chromate ions which is less than that necessary to passivate or neutralize the bonding solution to reaction with the metallic particles, and wherein the bonding solution is substantially free of zinc ions and aluminum ions in excess of quantities present from the leachable corrosion inhibitor.
