ABSTRACT:
A method and composition for coating a metal for use in connection with improving corrosion resistance and paint adhesion. The composition is a non-corrosive ester cross-linked polymer system having a plurality of carboxylic functional groups and a plurality of hydroxyl groups. The polymer system may be a bifunctional copolymer or the reaction product of a first polymer having a plurality of carboxylic functional groups (e.g. polyacrylic acid or polymethylvinylmaleic anhydride), and a second polymer having a plurality of hydroxyl groups (e.g. polyvinyl alcohol). The resulting reaction product of these two polymers is a cross-linked polymeric blend. A compound of a Group IV-B element may be added to this polymer blend to increase the degree of cross-linking and improve paint adhesion and corrosion resistance. Such a Group IV-B compound may be an acid such as fluozirconic acid, fluotitanic acid or fluohafnic acid, or a salt such as ammonium zirconium carbonate. If high concentrations are required, the pH of the solution may be increased to prevent gelation and promote prolonged stability. The method for improving corrosion resistance and paint adhesion of a metal surface includes contacting the metal surface with a composition of the present invention and drying the composition in place. Prior to contacting the metal surface with such a composition, the metal surface may be cleaned and rinsed.
