3、 TO BE USED FOR NEW DESIGN 1. SCOPE The materials defined by these specifications are corrosion protective coatings applied sequentially per supplier specifications over steel. They consist of an alkaline zinc nickel alloy electrodeposit and a trivalent chromium passivate/adhesion promoter. A3 is fo

4、llowed respectively by an organic seal, a cathodic electrocoat, or a waterborne top coat. When used with an integrally cured torque modified post dip, these processes provide consistent torque-tension control. All processes are free of hexavalent chromium, lead and cadmium. 2. APPLICATION These spec

5、ifications were released for materials used as corrosion protective coatings over steel fasteners and small parts. The processes may induce hydrogen embrittlement and therefore these coatings must be hydrogen embrittlement relieved when applied to high hardness parts in accordance with WSS-M99A3-A.

6、The cure temperature of the cathodic system for A3 is 175 to 200 C. These coatings shall not be specified if this temperature adversely affects the component being coated. 2.1 SERVICE TEMPERATURE The maximum continuous service temperature for A1 is 310 C. The maximum continuous service temperature f

7、or A3 is 260 C. 3. REQUIREMENTS 3.1 STANDARD REQUIREMENTS FOR PRODUCTION MATERIALS Material suppliers and part producers must conform to the Companys Quality System Requirements for Production Materials (WSS-M99P1111-A). Part producers must use approved materials specified on the Companys Approved S

8、ource List. 3.2 APPROVED APPLICATOR QUALITY REQUIREMENTS Applicators must follow coating manufacturer procedures and recommendations for chemical usage, equipment, analysis and processing. 3.3 APPEARANCE ENGINEERING MATERIAL SPECIFICATION WSS-M21P44-A1/A3 Copyright 2016, Ford Global Technologies, LL

9、C Page 2 of 5 3.3.1 The ZnNi coating will have a metallic silver appearance prior to passivate/adhesion promoter application. 3.3.2 The passivate/adhesion promoter will have an appearance of slight iridescence and color variation consistent with interference films (e.g. yellow, orange, green, blue,

10、purple variegation). 3.3.3 The cathodic coating used for A3 will be a semi-gloss black finish free from discontinuities. The gloss level for A3 shall be 25 to 55 of gloss when measured using a 60 meter. 3.4 COATING COMPOSITION 3.4.1 The alkaline ZnNi electrodeposit shall have a nickel content of 12

11、to 15% as measured by calibrated X-ray fluorescence spectrometers in accordance with the suppliers requirements. In some instances a strike layer may be applied to the substrate prior to ZnNi electrodeposition. In such cases the presence of a strike layer must be noted so that appropriate methods fo

12、r measuring composition and thickness of the ZnNi may be employed. 3.4.2 The alkaline ZnNi electrodeposit shall have a phase composition which includes substantial metallurgical gamma phase ZnNi as defined by standard reference phase diagrams such as ASM Handbook, Volume 3, 10th edition. Presence of

13、 substantial gamma phase ZnNi may be demonstrated by comparing x-ray diffraction patterns to reference materials such as ICDD PDF 06-0653. Crystallographic preferred orientations, such as 330 and/or 600 Miller index hkl for gamma phase ZnNi, should be present in accordance with the chemical supplier

14、s requirements; and subject to periodic verification using x-ray diffraction or an alternative, preapproved, standard crystallographic determination method. 3.4.3 The passivate/adhesion promoter shall have a composition in accordance with the chemical suppliers requirements. For A3, the passivate/ad

15、hesion promoter must be cobalt and carboxylic acid free. 3.4.4 The cathodic coating of A3 shall have a composition in accordance with the chemical suppliers requirements. 3.5 COATING THICKNESS 3.5.1 The ZnNi electrodeposit will have an optimum thickness of 8 + 4/- 2 microns measured on flat surfaces

16、. Documentation demonstrating throwing power, measured in accordance with suppliers instructions, in excess of 70% will assure adequate thickness in recessed areas including threads. 3.5.2 The passivate/adhesion promoter thickness is not subject to measurement but will be less than one micron and gr

17、eater than 50 nm based upon SEM examinations using cryofractured samples and/or calibrated depth profiling using scanning Auger or x-ray photoelectron spectroscopies. 3.5.3 A specific cathodic coating thickness for A3 is not specified. The minimum thickness shall be sufficient to meet the corrosion

18、requirements of the substrate material. A typical film that exhibits the appropriate corrosion resistance for A3 is 12.7 to 20.0 microns in thickness. 3.5.4 Excessive coating thickness on threaded components may cause assembly concerns. The general requirements of the Ford Worldwide Fastener Standar

19、ds, Finish Specification WX100, and Section 5 apply to these coatings.

20、 Standards WA900, WE900 and WX100. 3.7 CURING AND TRANSPORTATION 3.7.1 The ZnNi electrodeposit with passivate/adhesion promoter will be cured and packaged in accordance with suppliers requirements prior to transportation to a subsequent coating applicator. 3.7.2 The cathodic electrocoat for A3 shall

21、 be cured 20 minutes at a metal temperature of 175 to 200 C. 3.7.3 These coatings shall not be used on materials that are adversely affected by these metal temperatures. 3.8 CLEANING Prior to coating, the substrate shall be free of oil, dirt, and similar foreign materials. If a cleaning process is n

22、ecessary, it shall have no detrimental effect on the substrate, including freedom from embrittlement. 3.9 ADHESION The coating shall withstand normal handling, storage, and installation without flaking or peeling or other loss of adhesion. 3.10 TORQUE TENSION (WZ101) Applicators preparing the final

23、layer of parts in accordance with A3 must have torque tension measurement equipment in accordance with WZ 101.
