TITLE: An anticorrosion and water repellent coating formulation for coating on galvanized steel
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention refers to the synthesis of different water and solvent based coating solution for the corrosion resistance. It comprises the steps of: i. providing linseed and rung oil modified aclin resins ii. providing polar solvents/water for lowering the viscosity of the solution iii. providing flexibilizers/adhesion promoter iv. providing thixotropic agent and dissolution agents, if uses water as a diluent v. putting altogether into a vessel and stirring at 400 rpm for 30 minutes vi. applying as-obtained solution on metallic surface either by spraying, dipping or brushing and leave it for 10 to 300 seconds for its curing at 27oC vii. providing excellent corrosion resistance and hydrophobic properties.
BACKGROUND OF INVENTION
An unavoidable phenomenon of corrosion can be delayed by providing oil/grease, polymeric coatings, by inserting some corrosion pigments /additives which provide protection to a metal surface by shielding it from humid atmosphere. But in high humid conditions, protective barrier deteriorates because of the creation of creep under the coated film
Corrosion inhibitors form a protective layer by adsorbing on the metal's surface. These inhibitors are dispersing into the solution via some dispersion techniques and reduced the corrosion rate by interfering to the anodic/cathodic reaction either by adsorbing of ions/molecules onto the metal surface, increasing the hydrophobic properties, decreasing the diffusion rate for reactants to the metal surface or formation of a passive layer which can be assessed by polarization studies.
We are introducing various types of coating formulations containing various inhibitors with couple of oil modified aclin resins (linseed oil and tung oil modified aclin resin) which are natural bio-adhesives, non-toxic and amorphous edible resin and scratched from sub-fossils deposits. It can be used in forming synthetic polymers, lacquers and varnishes. Both oil modified aclin resins are soluble in alcohols and methylated spirits and it becomes tacky when a drop of a solvent is placed on it. Often, they are insoluble in water but can be prepared by using milder alkalis, ammonia, borax and sodium based reducing agent. These solutions can be applied even at low temperatures and easily be touched up if it is scratched. It dries within a minutes. These resins are used as a film forming agent in coating solution. Apart from film formation, they provide corrosion resistance and hydrophobicity. It was used to protect some military rifle stocks, galvanized iron threads and in plumbing applications.

Hereto, all invention is useful for structural applications, plumbing application and automobile industry to mitigate the galvanic coupling problem such as in bolts and threaded parts where the galvanized iron becomes prone to the environmental corrosion due to the zinc coating removal. As a result of this, substrate exhibits the galvanic coupling between removed part of zinc.
The formulations of all examples axe described in Table 2 and 3. All inventions exhibit excellent fluid and film properties (Table 4 and Table 5). Among all the examples, STEB is showing good properties in terms of anticorrosion (Figure 1 and 2) and water repellent (Figure 3) properties, as to evident by salt spray test, polarization study and contact angle measurement respectively.
The lower corrosion current density, higher sustainability towards rusting in salt spray chamber and higher water contact angle (hydrophobicity) depict the lower corrosion rate of STEB and WTV.
Figure la exhibits the result of corrosion resistance properties for described
waterborne systems (WLV, WLMP, WTV and WTMP).
Corrosion rate of waterborne systems: WTV < WTMP < WLMP < WLV.
Figure lb exhibits the result of corrosion resistance properties for described solvent
borne systems (STEB, SLEB, SLA and STA).
Corrosion rate of solvent borne systems: STEB < SLEB < SLA < STA.
Corrosion rate and current density: STEB < WTV < SLEB < WTMP < SLA < WLMP < WLV < STA. In the similar way, Figure 2 exhibits the results of sustainability towards rusting using salt spray test. More sustainability of coated samples under the exposure of salt spray fog indicates the more corrosion resistant properties.
Figure 3 exhibits the water repellent properties of waterborne and solvent borne coated samples. Comparatively, all examples show >90° contact angle which means hydrophobic nature or water repellence properties. As the contact angle increases, hydrophobicity or water repellence property increases. So, the lower corrosion current density, higher sustainability towards rusting in salt spray chamber and higher water contact angle (hydrophobicity) depict the lower corrosion rate of STEB and WTV. Among various formulations, STEB demonstrates best performance in terms of adhesion, water repellent properties (112°), salt spray test (216 hours), lower corrosion current density (5.21 E-08) and lower corrosion rate (0.000606 mm/year).
