The development of waterborne coating is essentially important for environmental protection, and cross-linking agent is of great significance for ensuring corrosion resistance of the coating. In this work, tetrabutyl titanate was modified by ethylene glycol and tris(2-hydroxyethyl) amine and used for the solidification of waterborne acrylic-epoxy resin. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis revealed that the agent reacted with OH groups first to cross-link the resin preliminarily, and then, when the amount of agent was further increased, the amino groups opened epoxide rings resulting in a secondary cross-link. Field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) observation and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) test found that, when the cross-linking agent was used at 6%, the coating remains intact and kept an impedance of as high as 108Ωcm2 even after being immersed in NaCl solution for 30 days.

  • Review of Recent Developments in the Formulation of Graphene-Based Coatings for the Corrosion Protection of Metals and Alloys
    corrosion and materials degradation Review Review of Recent Developments in the Formulation of Graphene-Based Coatings for the Corrosion Protection of Metals and Alloys Bronach Healy, Tian Yu, Daniele da Silva Alves and Carmel B. Breslin * Department of Chemistry, Maynooth University, Maynooth, Co. Kildare, Ireland; [email protected] (B.H.); [email protected] (T.Y.); [email protected] (D.d.S.A.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 26 August 2020; Accepted: 23 September 2020; Published: 25 September 2020 Abstract: Corrosion is a naturally occurring phenomenon and there is continuous interest in the development of new and more protective coatings or films that can be employed to prevent or minimise corrosion. In this review the corrosion protection afforded by two-dimensional graphene is described and discussed. Following a short introduction to corrosion, the application of graphene in the formulation of coatings and films is introduced. Initially, reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and metallic like graphene layers are reviewed, highlighting the issues with galvanic corrosion. Then the more successful graphene oxide (GO), functionalised GO and polymer grafted GO-modified coatings are introduced, where the functionalisation and grafting are tailored to optimise dispersion of graphene fillers. This is followed by rGO coupled with zinc rich coatings or conducting polymers, GO combined with sol-gels, layered double hydroxides or metal organic frameworks as protective coatings, where again the dispersion of the graphene sheets becomes important in the design of protective coatings. The role of graphene in the photocathodic protection of metals and alloys is briefly introduced, while graphene-like emerging materials, such as hexagonal boron nitride, h-BN, and graphitic carbon nitride, g-C3N4, are then highlighted.

STRENGTH Phone: 603-474-3811 Fax: 603-474-3327 • COMPATIBILITY Email: [email protected] REVISION: 15 Why are people choosing Waterborne Polyurethane Products? Waterborne Polyurethanes are fully reacted Urethane polymers dispersed in water. These products contain no residual free isocyanate. These polymers are now being widely used in the coatings and adhesives industries, and are finding their way into other high performance niche applications every day. The reason for this is a simple one. Formulators and end users are coming under constantly increasing pressure to deliver high performance products that are environmentally and user friendly. Waterborne polyurethanes are one of few types of products that can deliver results in both areas. Waterborne polyurethanes can be selected to deliver high tensile strength, chemical resistance, high elongation, UV resistance, low temperature flexibility, water resistance, abrasion resistance, and/or impact resistance. Most waterborne polyurethanes can be crosslinked in a variety of ways to enhance these properties even further. These properties can be obtained with exceptionally low VOC’s to meet increasingly stringent clean air legislation. Waterborne polyurethanes are also generally very compatible with many other types of waterborne resins such as acrylics. They are used extensively as a modifier with other resins to enhance properties and lower VOC’s while maintaining a good cost/performance balance.

  • A Primer on Waterborne Coatings
    A PRIMER ON WATERBORNE COATINGS Pollution Prevention Opportunity Switching from solvent-based coatings to waterborne coatings can reduce costs and volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions. Background Coatings contain one or more solvents as a primary ingredient. Solvents dissolve the paint materials to form a liquid mixture that can be sprayed. Once applied to a part, the solvent evaporates, leaving behind the paint film. Water is frequently used as a solvent in waterborne coatings. Contrary to its name, waterborne coatings typically contain other solvents, or "cosolvents," which can make up as much as 30 percent of the product. Waterborne coatings have been around in one form or another for decades but have demonstrated greatly improved performance characteristics in recent years. Some common waterborne resins include acrylics, epoxies, alkyds, and polyurethanes. Switching to Waterborne Coatings If you think you might have an application for waterborne coatings, following are some suggested evaluation steps. 1. Determine the specific minimum performance requirements for the coating and make sure the selected waterborne products meet all the requirements. If there is not a commercially available coating that will meet specifications, a coating manufacturer may be willing to work with you on new formulations. 2. Request technical literature from the vendor including MSDS sheets, VOC content, regulations covering the product and its constituents, safe handling procedures, and equipment requirements. Next, evaluate whether the new alternative is really safer, less hazardous, and reduces regulatory obligations. Work through the VOC and hazardous air pollutants (HAPS) calculations for any proposed coatings. 3. Consider changes in transfer efficiency, coating thickness, and solids content using waterborne coatings, especially when estimating changes in purchasing and environmental reporting requirements.
