Jack's suggestion is OK too; the term I used to use was "adhesion promoter"

adhesion-promoting agent

For Haftbeize, Google produced a reference to a Wiley-Interscience publication mentioning a cyanide-free anticorrosion treatment, but I could not find further details. From the context you cite, "adhesion-promoting agent" seems to best describe the function. "Mordant" is also a possibility (Chambers Sci & Tech Dictionary: preparation to aid paint or gold-leaf adhesion), but the more common meaning is in dyeing, so probably to be avoided here. In the metallurgical context, "pickling solution" is possible.

I have just seen Kevin's suggestion - may be better than mine.

derusting agent

It seems to be something that removes rust and prepares the metal for further processing.
