ISO 9717:2010

Metallic and other inorganic coatings — Phosphate conversion coating of metals

ISO 9717:2010 specifies requirements for the processing of ferrous metals, aluminium, zinc, cadmium and their alloys to produce coatings consisting essentially of inorganic phosphates, which are intended to be used in conjunction with supplementary treatments for the protection of the basis metal against corrosion and to provide anti-wear properties to sliding surfaces, adhesion to organic finishes and ease of cold-forming operations.
