  • Patent number: 7819989
    Abstract: A composition for surface treatment of aluminium, aluminum alloys, magnesium or magnesium alloys and the treating solutions being diluted to the desired concentration are defined. The composition contains (1) compound A containing at least one metal element selected from the group consisting of Hf(IV), Ti(IV) and Zr(IV), (2) a fluorine-containing compound of sufficient amount to make fluorine exist in the composition in an amount of at least 5 times the molarity of the total molarity of the metal contained in the above-mentioned compound A, (3) at least one metal ion B selected from the group of alkaline earth metals, (4) at least one metal ion C selected from the group consisting of Al, Zn, Mg, Mn and Cu, and (5) nitric ion and the mol concentration of compound A is 0.1-50 mmol/L as the metal element of Hf(IV), Ti(IV) and Zr(IV). A metal treated with the treating method of the present invention solution has an excellent resistance to various corrosive environments.

  • Patent number: 7531051
    Abstract: The present invention is the method for surface treatment of a metal material containing iron and/or zinc, containing component (A) and component (B); where (A) is a compound containing at least one metal element selected from the group consisting of Ti, Zr, Hf and Si, (B) is a compound containing fluorine as a supplying source of HF, wherein the ratio K=A/B between the total mole weight A of metal elements of Ti, Zr, Hf and Si in the compound of component (A) and the mole weight B which when the total fluorine atoms in the fluorine-containing compound of component (B) is converted to HF is within the range of 0.06?K?0.18, and the concentration of component (A) indicated by the total mole concentration of metal elements of Ti, Zr, Hf and Si is within the region of 0.05 to 100 m mol/L. To the treating solution for surface treatment, at least one compound containing at least one metal element selected from the group consisting of Ag, Al, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mg, Ni, Co and Zn can be blended.

  • Publication number: 20060185769
    Abstract: Treating solution for surface treatment of metal to treat one metal material selected from the group consisting of ferriferous material, zinciferous material, aluminiferous material and magnesiferous material or to treat two or more metal materials selected from the group consisting of ferriferous material, zinciferous material, aluminiferous material and magnesiferous material at the same time, wherein the aqueous surface treating solution contains from 5 to 5000 ppm of at least one compound selected from the group consisting of zirconium compound and titanium compound by the metal element, and from 0.1 to 100 ppm of free fluorine ion, further the pH of the treating solution is from 2 to 6. To the treating solution, calcium compound, magnesium compound, strontium compound, nitric acid group, oxygen acid and/or salt of oxygen acid, polymer compound and surface active agent can be added.

  • Patent number: 6475585
    Abstract: A releasable adhesive element (1) includes a white substrate (2) formed in a sheet-like shape. An image reception layer (4) containing particles is stacked on an obverse side of the substrate (2). An adhesive layer (5) is stacked on a reverse side of the substrate (2). The adhesive layer (5) is releasably covered with a release sheet (7). The image reception layer (4) enables an image to be formed thereon by an ink-jet printer, an electrophotographic printer, etc. The releasable adhesive element is usable as a mouse pad, a printed matter, etc.
