In a car body painting system, the contribution ratio of phosphate treatment as the paint base coating reaches about 20% in corrosion resistance according to the analysis of variance of experimental results. ...With the zinc phosphate type conversion treatment, coating mainly consisting of hopeite and phosphophyllite is formed on the surface of steel sheet. ...With an electrodeposition paint base, corrosion resistance becomes higher as the content of phosphophyllite in the coating becomes higher. The reason for this may be sought in the dissolution of phosphate coating when ED paint is applied (solubility) and when it is decomposed during subsequent baking (heat resistance).

CLADDING of steel parts or assemblies with aluminum, through the use of a recently developed process which has been in commercial operation for two years, is described in this paper. Successful plant and field experience indicates that it can be applied at room and elevated temperatures in various types of atmospheres. This new process was originally designed to offer corrosion resistance caused by the collection of leaded fuel gas condensates in exhaust systems, and for other parts requiring high-temperature oxidation resistance up to 1600 F. However, it has since been used in a wide variety of applications.
