...Bodo Müller A severe problem with water‐borne paints containing aluminium or zinc pigments is hydrogen corrosion of these metals in the aqueous alkaline paint media. The subject of the present study is the examination of corrosion inhibition of aluminium and zinc pigments in aqueous alkaline media...

...Bodo Müller In aqueous alkaline ink media aluminium pigments react with the evolution of hydrogen, whereas the more noble copper and brass pigments react by the absorption of oxygen, which can be measured gas‐volumetrically. These different corrosion reactions can be inhibited with addition...

...F. Cayuela; M. Morcillo Aluminium pigmented chlorinated rubber coatings, widely used for steel ship protection, can be bleached when exposed to total immersion conditions. A deep study on the development of the decolouration processes of these coatings, applied on rolled steel specimens exposed...

...Bodo Müller; Martin Schubert; Claude Oughourlian Aluminium and zinc pigments corrode in aqueous alkaline paint media with the evolution of hydrogen. Maleic acid‐styrene‐acrylic ester copolymers were synthesized by copolymerisation of maleic acid anhydride, styrene and different (meth)acrylic esters...

...M. Deyá; V.F. Vetere; R. Romagnoli; B. del Amo The efficiency of two anticorrosive pigments containing aluminium polyphosphate was studied. Pigments were analysed by current analytical techniques and characterised by FT‐IR spectrometry. The anticorrosive properties of the selected pigments were...

...Bodo Müller; Sonja Kubitzki Aluminium and zinc pigments react in aqueous alkaline media (e.g. water‐borne paints) by the evolution of hydrogen which can be measured gasvolumetrically. Certain organic heterocycles are well‐known corrosion inhibitors for different metals. The six different...
