Dear Majid
If you want people to tell you formulation for room temp phosphating I think you should be ready to disclose formulation for phosphating at 70 °C. RIGHT .

Go ahead I am waiting for it.

TED I think I did your job.

Yes, you did my job, Vikram. Thanks. I am sometimes accused of being a little abrasive in my responses, and I think you were too :-)

If you are willing to publicly reveal it, Majid, by all means go ahead and do so, but please tell us how you came to the knowledge. And maybe someone will reveal a room temperature formulation and tell us where they got it; but probably they won't.

But if you are proposing a confidential barter, to the financial benefit of yourself and your barter partner, you should not be proposing it on this website which is made possible through the support of suppliers who offer phosphatizing processes. Thanks.
