Abstract
The present invention is related to an aqueous post treatment composition for providing a post treatment layer on at least a part of a passivation layer, which is covering at least a part of a zinc layer being on at least a part of an iron containing substrate, characterized in that the aqueous post treatment composition comprises at least one chromium (III) ion source and at least one compound containing the chemical element silicon; wherein a molar ratio of silicon versus chromium is given in said composition, with the proviso that said molar ratio is ranging from 2600:1 to 1:1 for the zinc layer obtained by an electrolytic acid zinc deposition process; or that said molar ratio is ranging from 5200:1 to 1:1 for the zinc layer obtained by an electrolytic alkaline zinc deposition process.
