<p>An ultraviolet treatment of organic titanates on metal surfaces to increase adhesion of inks and coatings is disclosed wherein the adhesion of subsequently applied inks and coatings is improved. The method includes an initial treatment of the lubricated metal substrate with an organic titanate such as tetrakis (2-ethyl hexyl) titanate and then exposing same to ultraviolet light to accelerate the reaction of the titanate with the metal surface.</p> |
