Abstract

Abstract A steel sheet coating having high corrosion-resistivity and paint-adhesivity can be obtained by applying a water solution of specific composition described hereinafter on a steel sheet, followed by drying; and exposing the coating to ultraviolet rays in an air atmosphere; said water solution contains a chemical compound which has been prepared by reacting a prepolymer of an epoxy resin with acrylic acid or methacrylic acid in order to introduce vinyl groups into the molecules of said prepolymer, another chemical compound of chromate or dichromate for chelation and a molybdenum compound as a stabilizer.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 18
Claim 1
Independent Claim 119 words
A method for forming a corrosion-resistant coating on a steel sheet which comprises applying a water solution on the surface of said steel sheet, followed by drying; and exposing the coated surface to ultraviolet rays having a main wave length of 365 mμ in an air atmosphere to obtain a cured coating; wherein said water solution contains a composition comprising (i) a prepolymer of an epoxy resin selected from the group consisting of bisphenol and novolak-phenol type reacted with an acid selected from the group consisting of acrylic acid and methacrylic acid, (ii) a chelate-forming compound selected from the group consisting of a chromate and a dichromate, and (iii) a water-soluble compound of molybdenum to stabilize said water solution.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 119 words
A method for forming a corrosion-resistant coating on a steel sheet which comprises applying a water solution on the surface of said steel sheet, followed by drying; and exposing the coated surface to ultraviolet rays having a main wave length of 365 mμ in an air atmosphere to obtain a cured coating; wherein said water solution contains a composition comprising (i) a prepolymer of an epoxy resin selected from the group consisting of bisphenol and novolak-phenol type reacted with an acid selected from the group consisting of acrylic acid and methacrylic acid, (ii) a chelate-forming compound selected from the group consisting of a chromate and a dichromate, and (iii) a water-soluble compound of molybdenum to stabilize said water solution.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
A method of claim 1, wherein (i) comprises said prepolymer reacted with said acid and phosphoric acid.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 102 words
A method of claim 1, wherein said water solution contains a mixture of a composition (A) comprising (i) a prepolymer of an epoxy resin selected from the group consisting of bisphenol and novolak-phenol type reacted with an acid selected from the group consisting of acrylic acid and methacrylic acid, (ii) a chelate-forming compound selected from the group consisting of a chromate and a dichromate, and (iii) a water-soluble compound of molybdenum to stabilize said water solution, and a composition (B) comprising (i) said prepolymer reacted with said acid and phosphoric acid, (ii) said chelate-forming compound, and (iii) said water-soluble compound of molybdenum.
