Comparison of the efficiencies of anticorrosive pigments based on phosphates

The paper studies the effect of modification of zinc orthophosphate on the anticorrosion efficiency thereof in organic coating. The zinc orthophosphate dihydrate and tetrahydrate and the reaction of phosphate anion with hydroxyl binder groups are compared. The highest anticorrosion efficiency is reached with pigments which are modified by organic corrosion inhibitors. The highly water soluble phosphate pigments reduce the anticorrosion coating properties. The effect of cation in phosphate pigments on the corrosion inhibition was confirmed.
