Patent number: 6821633Abstract: In at least one aspect, the invention relates to an entirely or substantially chromium-free conversion coating composition and process for conversion coating metal surfaces that provides corrosion resistance. In at least another aspect, the present invention relates to an article having a metal surface that is at least partially coated with an entirely or substantially chromium-free conversion coating that provides corrosion resistance. In certain embodiments, the conversion coating composition comprises water and (A) dissolved fluorometallate anions selected from the group consisting of TiF6−2, ZrF6−2, HfF6−2, SiF6−2, AlF6−3, GeF6−2, SnF6−2, BF4−, and mixtures thereof and (B) a water-soluble polymer which is a Mannich adduct of poly(4-vinyl phenol) and N-methyl ethanolamine. In other embodiments, the composition also comprises (C) a water-soluble polymer which is a Mannich adduct of poly(4-vinyl phenol) and N-methyl glucamine.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2003Date of Patent: November 23, 2004Assignee: Henkel Kommanditgesellschaft auf Aktien (Henkel KGaA)Inventors: Jianping Liu, Patrick A.

Publication number: 20040180779Abstract: To provide a rust inhibitor which is a fired composition excellent in corrosion resisting properties almost as same as or even better than lead compounds and which is also good in stability of electrodeposition bath. The fired composition is a fired matter of a zinc compound and a tin compound, wherein zinc oxide Wz and tin oxide Ws are in the relation of Wz≧Ws in weight %. The ratio of the zinc oxide Wz and the tin oxide Ws is in the range of 99/1 to 70/30 in weight %, and preferably in the range of 95/5 to 85/15. Such a fired matter has not only a rust resisting function but also a curing catalyst function, so that such a curing catalyst as dibutyl tin oxide, which has heretofore been used, can be eliminated.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 3, 2004Publication date: September 16, 2004Inventors: Hiroshi Ishikawa, Tsuyoshi Iwamoto, Kazutoshi Motegi
