Abstract: The chemical conversion treatment liquid according to the present invention, which is cobalt-free and is capable of forming a chemical conversion film having excellent corrosion resistance, contains a water-soluble trivalent chromium-containing substance, a water-soluble titanium-containing substance, and a water-soluble lactic acid-containing substance as essential components and may optionally contain a component at least a part of which is any of a water-soluble glycolic acid-containing substance and a water-soluble ineffective organic acid-containing substance. The water-soluble ineffective organic acid-containing substance is a water-soluble organic acid-containing substance based on an ineffective organic acid that is an organic acid other than lactic acid and other than glycolic acid.

Abstract: As a rust prevention member that has excellent corrosion resistance, while being provided with a coating film that contains Si, a rust prevention member which is provided with a base material, a zinc-based plating layer that is provided on the base material, and a chemical conversion coating film that contains Si and is provided on the zinc-based plating layer is described. This rust prevention member is characterized in that the chemical conversion coating film has an Si-rich region on the surface side, said Si-rich region having an atomic ratio of the Si content to the Zn content of 1 or more, while having a thickness of 100 nm or more.

Abstract: A production method of a member having a surface provided thereon with a chemical conversion coating includes a contacting step and a washing step. The contacting step causes a reactive-type chemical conversion treating acidic composition to contact with a base material having a metal-based surface thereby forming a chemical conversion coating on the metal-based surface of the base material. The washing step washes the base material having been subjected to the contacting step to obtain a member having a surface provided thereon with the chemical conversion coating. The reactive-type chemical conversion treating acidic composition contains a water-soluble trivalent chromium-containing substance, a water-soluble titanium-containing substance, and a carboxylic acid compound. The acidic composition is free from a water-soluble cobalt-containing substance.
