  • Patent number: 5472630
    Abstract: Compositions and methods for cleaning and etching an aluminum surface with a low etch, low phosphate alkaline cleaner solution are disclosed. The preferred composition employs a stable combination of an alkali metal hydroxide, gluconic acid, a detergent source, an aluminum sequestrant, an oil emulsifier, a defoamer, and a hydrotrope.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 24, 1994
    Date of Patent: December 5, 1995
    Assignee: Betz Laboratories, Inc.
    Inventors: Jiangbo Ouyang, Edward A. Rodzewich, William L. Harpel
  • Patent number: 5451270
    Abstract: A process for measuring the coating weight of a dried-in-place non-chromate polyacrylamide/surfactant based conversion coating is disclosed. An ammonium hexafluorotitanate tracer added to such a conversion coating was found to not adversely affect coating properties. The tracer was found to remain proportional to the polymer matrix when the coating was analyzed by X-ray fluorescence.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 16, 1994
    Date of Patent: September 19, 1995
    Assignee: Betz Laboratories, Inc.
    Inventors: Jiangbo Ouyang, William L. Harpel
  • Patent number: 5412011
    Abstract: A non-chromium conversion coating for metal surfaces such as aluminum, steel, galvanized steel and zinc-aluminum steel consisting of an aqueous solution of an anionic polyacrylamide copolymer, an inorganic silicate and an organofunctional silane.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 15, 1993
    Date of Patent: May 2, 1995

  • Patent number: 5344505
    Abstract: A substantially chromium free composition and method for passivating a galvanized metal surface is disclosed. The passivation treatment which may be rinsed or dried-in-place includes phosphoric acid, boric acid and optionally molybdic acid.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 16, 1993
    Date of Patent: September 6, 1994

    Inventors: Jiangbo Ouyang, William L. Harpel
  • Patent number: 5292378
    Abstract: A method of providing color to a dried-in-place, non-chromate conversion coating is provided. The addition of a phthalo green pigment and optionally a nonionic surfactant to an aqueous, dried-in-place conversion coating treatment solution provides for a colored conversion coating without adversely effecting the corrosion resistance or adhesion properties of the conversion coating.
