Corrosion
Corrosion is a reaction between

Material
and
Surrounding environment

.under formation of corrosion products

TKr/Zinc Primers Jotun/Oct. 2007/Jotun/Coatings/Marketing


Jotun Coatings Zinc Primers

Production and degradation of steel


Reaction between the material and
the surrounding environment takes place
Plates, pipes,
profiles, etc.

Raw material
Iron ore Rust

The presence of Water / Humidity and Oxygen


is a prerequisite for corrosion of steel

TKr/Zinc Primers Jotun/Oct. 2007/Jotun/Coatings/Marketing


Jotun Coatings Zinc Primers

Manufacturing / refining
- brings the material to a higher energy level

The resistance against oxidation (corrosion) varies for


different materials
When brought in contact with an electrolyte (aqueous
solution that conducts electricity) some metals easily dissolve
into ions. These are called Base metals
Noble metals have a very strong resistance against
corrosion and do not react to form ions unless exposed to
very aggressive chemicals

Jotun Coatings Zinc Primers

Corrosion / degradation
- brings the material "back" to the stable situation
Corrosiveness in an environment increases or varies with:
Temperature
Salinity
Oxygen content
Water velocity
Acidity
Type of electrolyte
Content of contaminants / pollution that promotes
corrosion
Micro-organisms

Oxidation of metals is a natural process

The ability of providing cathodic protection

Damage in coating to steel surface


Moisture allows Zinc to ionize and
cathodically protecting the steel

Superior adhesion prevents coating undercut


Topcoat

2+ Zinc primer
Zn
Steel

The zinc primer reacts to protect the


steel substrate when the topcoat is damaged

Technologies - zinc primers


The classification of zinc-rich primers refers to the binder
Two different binders
Silicate inorganic (solvent borne and water borne)
Epoxy organic (solvent borne and water borne)
In general the inorganic binders have better electrical
conductivity than the organic binders and will give a
metallic conductivity all through the coating
Industry guidelines for minimum zinc requirements is given
by organisations and specifications

Chemistry - zinc primers

Inorganic : Network of zinc, oxygen and silicon atoms


chemically bonded to each other and to the
steel substrate

Organic : Metallic zinc particles "floating" in a cured


epoxy binder network. The high content of zinc
ensures metallic contact between the zinc and
the steel substrate, and between the individual
zinc particles.
