ABSTRACT:
Corrosion resistant coatings are formed on aluminum by immersion in aqueous olutions containing chromic salts, a fluoride ion from compounds such as a fluosilicate with an alkali added near or slightly beyond the precipitation of the insoluble basic compounds. Trivalent chromium films formed on the aluminum surface when tested in 5% NaCl salt spray chamber showed corrosion resistance in excess of 96 hours. After a post-treatment with peroxide or permanganate solutions, the corrosion resistance for the aluminum substrates exceeded 168 hours. Trivalent chromium coated aluminum serves as an effective base for paint primers. Anodized aluminums were also afforded excellent corrosion resistance, after being treated in dilute/basic chromic sulfate solutions and post-treated with peroxide.
