Zinc Phosphating
Zinc phosphating, also known as zinc phosphate coating, is a surface treatment process used to provide corrosion resistance and improve paint adhesion on metal surfaces. It involves the formation of a layer of zinc phosphate on the substrate material
Surface Preparation The metal object to be treated is thoroughly cleaned and degreased to remove any dirt, oil, or contaminants from the surface. This step is crucial to ensure proper adhesion of the phosphate coating.
Phosphating Solution Preparation: A phosphating solution is prepared by dissolving zinc phosphate salts, such as zinc phosphate monohydrate or zinc orthophosphate, in water. The solution may also contain other additives such as accelerators, stabilizers, and surfactants to control the coating formation and enhance its properties.
