Other combinations ofcoatings may be specified by agreement between the producerand the purchase

24、r.4.1.2 Differentially coated tin plate is a product having onesurface more heavily tin coated than the opposite. The classdesignation is expressed by showing the two tin coatingweights masses separated by a slash mark, for example,D50/25 D5.6/2.8. The first number will represent the coatingweight m

39、marily produced with a melted coating (bright).Unmelted coating (matte) is also available.5.2 Base Metal FinishSingle-reduced electrolytic tin plateis produced with ground roll finishes and shot-blasted rollfinishes as follows:5.2.1 Ground Roll Finishes (produced as either melted orunmelted coatings

40、):5.2.1.1 7BA smooth finish which may contain fine gritlines. This finish is specified for special applications.5.2.1.2 7CA smooth finish with grit lines.

41、or Otherwise Textured Roll Finish-es (produced as either melted or unmelted coatings):5.2.2.1 5C A shot blasted finish (SBF) for general appli-cations. The surface roughness will range from 30 to 60 in. Ra0.760 to 1.52 m Ra.5.2.2.2 5DA shot blasted finish (SBF) for special appli-cations.6. Chemical

42、Treatment6.1 Electrolytic tin plate as produced without a surfacechemical treatment is subject to tin oxide growth that ismanifested by surface discoloration during storage and subse-quent baking operations and may adversely affect applicationand adhesion of organic coatings and lithography, and may

43、cause poor solderability. A chemical treatment is thereforeapplied in most cases after the tin coating has been depositedand immediately preceding the oiling, to control tin oxideformation and growth. The chemical treatment is applied bypassing the strip through a chemical solution with or withoutFI

44、G. 1 Standard Heavy Side Marking System for Differential Electrolytic Tin PlateA 624/A 624M 033current. Chemical treatments on electrolytic tin plate areapplied commensurate with each suppliers method and equip-ment; however, one of the controlling factors is the amount ofcombined chromium present o

45、n the surface. Unless otherwisespecified, the surface chemical treatment will be left to thediscretion of the tin plate producer.6.2 In order of decreasing surface passivation, the com-monly used chemical treatments for tin plate are as follows:6.2.1 Cathodic Sodium Dichromate (CDC) Treatment:6.2.1.

46、1 The cathodic sodium dichromate treatment is themost widely used treatment, and provides a highly passivatedsurface against the formation of tin oxides. It has the followingattributes: (1) minimum tin oxide growth after prolongedstorage; (2) minimized discoloration during subsequent bakingrequired

47、for organic coatings and lithography; (3) minimizeddiscoloration due to soldering operation; and (4) provides someresistance to tin sulfide discoloration of certain sulfur-bearingfood products.FIG. 2 Standard Light Side Marking System for Differential Electrolytic Tin PlateA 624/A 624M 0346.2.1.2 Ca

48、thodic sodium dichromate-treated tin plate has anaim range of 350 to 650 g of chromium per square foot ofsurface. 4000 to 7000 g of chromium per square metre ofsurface.6.2.2 Sodium Dichromate Dip (SDCD/SDD) Treatment:6.2.2.1 The sodium dichromate dip treatment provides mod-erate passivation against

49、tin oxide formation.6.2.2.2 Sodium dichromate dip-treated tin plate has a maxi-mum of 200 g of chromium per square foot of surface. 2200g of chromium per square metre of surface.7. Oiling7.1 Electrolytic tin plate is furnished with an oil film appliedto both surfaces. The most commonly used oil films are dioctylsebacate (DOS) and acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC). Other oilfilms may be used. Surface act
