A water-based surface treatment agent includes an organic-inorganic silicon compound (A) and inorganic particle (B), wherein the organic-inorganic silicon compound (A) is adapted to be a compound that is obtained by mixing a colloidal silica (C) and an organoalkoxysilane (D). In this regard, the ratio (M/M) between the solid content mass Mof the organic-inorganic silicon compound (A) and the solid content mass Mof the inorganic particle (B) preferably falls within the range from 0.2 or more and 2.0 or less, the average particle size of the organic-inorganic silicon compound (A) preferably falls within the range of 3 nm or more and 500 nm or less. In addition, the average particle size of the inorganic particle (B) preferably falls within the range of 10 nm or more and 600 nm or less.

Aqueous hydrophilizing surface treatment agent, hydrophilic coating film and hydrophilizing surface treatment method

A replenisher which is capable of supplying Zr ions to a metal surface treatment solution, while suppressing an increase in the HF concentration in the metal surface treatment solution, so that a chemical conversion coating film can be continuously formed on a steel sheet by electrolysis and contains (A) zirconium hydrofluoric acid or a salt thereof and/or (B) hydrofluoric acid or a salt thereof and (C) a fluorine-free zirconium compound. The total concentration (g/l) of zirconium ions derived from the components (A) and (C) is 20 or more, and the ratio of the total molar amount (M) of the fluorine ions derived from the components (A) and (B) relative to the total molar amount (M) of the zirconium ions derived from the components (A) and (C), namely M/Mis 0.01 or more but less than 4.00.

Replenisher and method for producing surface-treated steel sheet

A composition for adhesion layer that is used for obtaining a multi-layered surface treatment steel sheet in which an adhesion layer is formed onto at least one surface of the steel sheet, and an upper layer and/or an intermediate layer which has a design and which contains a rust preventive pigment and/or a colored pigment is formed onto the adhesion layer; the composition including a cationic urethane resin and a silicon compound in an aqueous medium, and the ratio between the temperature at which the logarithmic decrement for the mixture of the cationic urethane resin and the silicon compound in the rigid-body pendulum type free damped vibration method shows the maximum value and the temperature at which the logarithmic decrement for the cationic urethane resin alone in the rigid-body pendulum type free damped vibration method shows the maximum value is in the range of 1.2 to 3.0.

Composition for adhesion layer used for multi-layered surface-treatment steel sheet

Particles each of which consists of an inorganic polyvalent metal compound as a nucleus and a coating of a metallic soap of the polyvalent metal coating the nucleus (coated particles); products and preparation processes using the particles; a lubricating coating forming agent wherein particles each of which consists of a polyvalent metal salt of phosphoric acid as a nucleus and a coating of a metallic soap of the polyvalent metal coating the surface of the nucleus are suspended in an aqueous solution of a water soluble inorganic salt and/or a water soluble organic acid salt; and a lubricating coating. The coated particles are novel particles which can be used as an ingredient of coating-type lubricating coating; are excellent in seizure resistance; can inhibit wear of tools at the time of plastic working since the friction coefficient of the surface of the particles is low; and are slow to cause pollution of working oils. Lubricating coating obtained by applying the lubricating coating forming agent onto the surface of a metallic material gives excellent cold plastic working properties, namely lubricity and seizure resistance to the metallic material.

Process for cold plastic working of metallic materials

A waterborne composition for forming protective coatings to provide, by a simple method comprising coating and drying onto a metal surface, a coating that is uniform with little unevenness and that has an excellent galling resistance and workability that are at least as good as the corresponding properties afforded by conversion treatment methodologies, contains water-soluble inorganic salt and smectite-type clay mineral. The lubrication performance of the coating can also be improved when said composition additionally contains a lubricating component.
