Effect of surface treatment on the corrosion protective properties of Egyptian Manganese ore primers: Part 1 Available to Purchase

The adsorption of stearic acid molecules onto the surface of the Egyptian manganese ore (high and medium grades, H.G. & M.G.) was followed by adsorption isotherm determination and the sedimentation properties of the ore in apolar medium. It was found that the sedimentation properties depend on the adsorbed amount in the isotherm, the most stable dispersion for the ore in the organic medium was detected at monolayer surface coverage of stearic acid molecules on the surface of the ore.
