ANTI-CORROSIVE COATINGS

1 | Deck title
 Shielding metal against rust

General description

→ Corrosion = Degradation of metals over time by localized redox-reaction

→ Anti-corrosion coatings belong to protective coatings
→ Main purpose is to protect against corrosion and humidity and second purpose is to maintain aesthetical aspect

Formulating factors

→ the binder and the active pigments playa significant part

→ choice of solvents, wetting / dispersing surfactants and efficient antifoams, along with other additives such as flash rust inhibitors, thickeners,
etc., will also influence the final properties.
→ Each component needs to be optimized for performance and compatibility.
→ Anticorrosion coatings - formulation below the CPVC as porous films will allow rapid ingress of moisture, oxygen etc. Typical PVC= 30-45%
→ active pigments / extenders - the finer particle size types, because coarser particle size variants can disrupt the film, increase porosity / defects
and reduce the anticorrosive efficiency.

Shielding metal against rust

Advantages

→ Water based
→ Low organic solvent demand
→ Low odour
→ Low flammability
→ Quick drying and recoating
→ Good anti-corrosive properties

Limitations

→ Not suitable for very harsh environments (<0°C or deep sea applications)
→ Effective surface preparation/degreasing is essential
→ Adverse application conditions (e.g. high humidity / low temperature) can affect film forming properties, thereby leading to early /
accelerated failure - generally solved by choice of binder / adequate film-forming agents
→ Flash rust / corrosion on coating/drying - easily solved by use of flash rust inhibitors
