- 2. A composition of the surface-treatment agent used for metallic material according to claim 1, wherein from 0.01 to 10% by weight of said cationic component (A) is contained relative to the total solid matters of the surface-treatment composition.
- 3. A composition of the surface-treatment agent used for metallic material according to claim 1, wherein from 0.1 to 15% by weight of said acid component (B) is contained relative to the total solid matters of the surface-treatment composition.
- 4. A composition of the surface-treatment agent used for metallic material according to any one of claims 1 through 3, wherein the weight ratio (C)/(D) of said silane-coupling agent component (C) to said water-soluble polymer component (D) is from 1:10 to 10:1.
- 5. A composition of the surface-treatment agent used for metallic material according to any one of claims 1 through 3, wherein said silane-coupling agent component (C) comprises (a) the first silane-coupling agent consisting of one or more compounds having an amino group containing one or more active hydrogen atoms, and (b) the second silane-coupling agent consisting of one or more compounds having one or more epoxy groups.
- 6. A composition of the surface-treatment agent used for metallic material according to claim 5, wherein the equivalent ratio of the active hydrogen-containing amino group contained in said first silane-coupling agent to the epoxy group contained in said second silane-coupling agent is from 3:1 to 1:3.
- 7. A composition of the surface-treatment agent used for metallic material according to claim 5, wherein the weight ratio [(a)+(b)]/(D) of the total amount of said first silane-coupling agent (a) plus said second silane-coupling agent relative to said water-soluble polymer component (D) is from 5:1 to 1:5.
- 8. A method for treating metallic material, characterized in that an aqueous treating agent, which contains the composition of the surface-treatment agent according to any one of claims 1 through 3 and, the pH of which is adjusted to 2.0 to 6.5, is deposited on the metallic surface and dried to form a coating having from 0.01 to 5.0 g/m2 of dry weight.
