Research on the Modification of Water-Borne Inorganic Zinc-Rich Coatings and its Performances

In order to develop more suitable anticorrosive coatings for hydraulic engineering metal structures, studies were carried out on the modification of water-borne inorganic zinc-rich coatings in this paper. Through effective regulation of the type and dosage of various ingredients, such like potassium silicate solution, silicone-acrylate emulsion, zinc powder and additive agent, modified water-borne inorganic zinc-rich coatings equipped with enhanced water and impact resistance were prepared. Coupled with the inherent anti-corrosion and electrochemical protection property, this modified new coating possesses a broader application prospect in hydraulic engineering metal structures.
