  • Patent number: 6905783
    Abstract: Steel sheet for porcelain enameling having excellent workability yet capable of providing an enamel layer having excellent adhesion with the steel sheet on direct-on enameling once and still free of black specks defects, a method for producing the same, as well as a porcelain enamel product and the method for producing the same are provided, in which low carbon Al-killed steel sheet, high oxygen steel sheet, Ti-added steel sheet, Nb-added steel sheet, Ti—Nb-added steel sheet or B-added steel sheet is used. A steel sheet for porcelain enameling is produced by applying Ni—Mo alloy plating to the low carbon Al-killed steel sheet, high oxygen steel sheet, Ti-added steel sheet, Nb-added steel sheet, Ti—Nb-added steel sheet or B-added steel sheet having specified components and composition ratio, and after performing heat treatment thereto to control the content of Ni, Mo, and Fe that are present on the surface of the steel sheet in a predetermined range, porcelain enamel is applied and fired.

  • Patent number: 6805975
    Abstract: Steel sheet for porcelain enameling capable of realizing excellent enamel adhesion with the steel sheet by direct-on enameling once is provided by using a Ti-added steel sheet; there are also a method for producing the same, as well as a porcelain enamel product and the method for producing the same. A steel sheet for porcelain enameling is produced by providing a Ni—Mo alloy plating film on a Ti-added steel sheet containing 0.01% by weight (wherein, % represents “% by weight” hereinafter) or less of C, 0.5% or less of Mn, 0.04% or less of P, 0.04% or less of S, 0.01 to 0.50% of Ti, and balance Fe accompanied by unavoidable impurities, and by then performing heat treatment thereto to control the content of Ni, Mo, and Fe present in the surface of the steel sheet in a predetermined range, porcelain enamel is applied once and fired.

  • Patent number: 6540824
    Abstract: The present invention provides a yellow pigment which contains a titanium-iron complex oxide of the pseudo-brookite type and produces a stabilized color more yellowish than conventionally and which is universally usable for coloring plastics, ceramics and coating compositions. The pigment of the invention is a titanium-iron complex oxide pigment which contains a pseudo-brookite complex oxide represented by the composition formula (M1-x•Fex)O•2TiO2 or the composition formula (Fe1-y•Aly)2O3•TiO2 wherein M is one of the bivalent metals Mg, Sr and Zn, the ratios of Fe, Al and M to Ti are in the respective ranges of 0.3≦Fe/Ti≦4.5, 0≦Al/Ti≦6.5 and 0≦M/Ti≦2.6, and x and y are in the respective ranges of 0≦x<1 and 0≦y<1.

  • Patent number: 5972097
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for producing colorful inorganic pigments, which comprise complex oxides of various elements, which have good weather resistance and good heat resistance, and which are widely used in colorants for ceramics and in colorants for coatings and plastics. In the method, the composite oxides are sintered at a low temperature for a short period of time to give homogeneous and well colored pigments. Under the sintering conditions, the composite oxides are not sintered excessively. The grinding step in the method is simplified.
