It is possible to remove traditional inhibitors and incorporate smart pigment materials to give the same, if not a better, level of corrosion control in coatings.
The commercial success of silicone resins in the field of high-temperature-resistant coatings is based on their special properties. Alongside the classic heat-curing systems, ambient-curing systems are enjoying ever greater success.
Through the use of designed particle morphology and process conditions a latex has been developed that can be formulated into a coating without the use of coalescing solvents that gives excellent corrosion resistance, adhesion to steel, and still is hard enough to give good block resistance and dirt pickup resistance.
The corrosion protection provided by DTM coatings has improved with advances in binder technology; however, when formulating a waterborne DTM every component of the formula contributes to the corrosion performance.
In order to affect true change, we must develop products that touch on several of the change drivers, including regulatory issues, total cost of painting and performance
As with all effect pigments, the use of polychromatic pigments requires an intensive examination of illumination and observation geometries, if useful and interesting color creations are to be produced.
It is imperative for coatings manufacturers to set an example for the entire industry and produce more sustainable products and technologies that address the many problems facing our earth.
Compared to traditional corrosion resistant coatings, chemically bonded phosphate ceramics can stop corrosion, extend equipment life, and minimize costly production downtime
