Abstract: An electrodeposition coating composition comprising a fluorine-containing copolymer, a curing agent and an aqueous medium, said composition having a fluorine ion content of not more than 15 ppm.According to the composition of the present invention, since a bad influence to electrodeposition due to fluorine ion can be remarkably inhibited, the excellent electrodeposited film can be obtained therefrom.

Abstract: Disclosed is a highly weather-resistant electrodeposition coating composition which is obtained by neutralizing a mixture of an acrylic polycarboxylic resin having an acid value of from 30 to 100 and fluorocarbon polymers with ammonia or an organic amine, melting point of said fluorocarbon polymers being not higher than a heating temperature for curing a film formed from the electrodeposition coating composition, and which is preferably applied to aluminum building materials.

Abstract: A process for treating the surface of aluminum or aluminum alloy comprising the steps of contacting aluminum or aluminum alloy with hot water or steam to form an aluminum oxide layer thereon and conducting electrolysis using the resulting aluminum or aluminum alloy as an anode by applying direct current in an aqueous solution consisting essentially of a water-soluble salt of at least one oxyacid selected from the group consisting of silicic acid, phosphoric acid, molybdic acid, vanadic acid, permanganic acid, stannic acid and tungstic acid.

Abstract: In coating aluminum or aluminum alloy by contacting the aluminum or aluminum alloy with hot water or steam to form an aluminum oxide layer on its surface and thereafter electrophoretically coating the aluminum or aluminum alloy with an electrophoretic coating composition to form a resin layer, a process which is characterized in that said electrophoretic coating composition contains at least one water-soluble salt of an oxyacid selected from the group consisting of silicic acid, boric acid, phosphoric acid, vanadic acid, tungstic acid, permanganic acid, molybdic acid and stannic acid.

Abstract: A process for coating an aluminum or aluminum alloy comprising the steps of subjecting aluminum or aluminum alloy to boehmite treatment or chemical conversion treatment, conducting electrolysis using the resulting aluminum or aluminum alloy as an electrode in an aqueous solution of a water-soluble salt of at least one oxyacid, and thereafter coating electrophoretically the aluminum or aluminum alloy with an aqueous organic coating composition containing a binder resin and a water-soluble salt of at least one oxyacid to form a resin layer, said oxyacid contained in the aqueous solution and aqueous organic coating composition being at least one oxyacid selected from the group consisting of silicic acid, boric acid, phosphoric acid, molybdic acid, vanadic acid, permanganic acid, stannic acid and tungstic acid.
