DESCRIPTION
ANTICORROSIVE COATING COMPOSITION, ANTICORROSIVE COATING FILM,
AND METHOD FOR PREVENTING CORROSION OF SUBSTRATE
Technical Field
[ 0001] The present invention relates to an anticorrosive
coating composition, an anticorrosive coating film, and a method
for preventing corrosion of a substrate. More particularly, the
10 invention relates to an anticorrosive coating composition capable
of forming an anticorrosive coating film excellent in adhesion
to metal substrates, anticorrosive properties, and the like, an
anticorrosive coating film formed from the composition, and a
method for preventing corrosion,of metal substrates using the
15 composition.
Background Art
[ 0002] Usually, for prevention of corrosion, large-sized
steel structures such as ships, land structures, and bridges are
subjected to anticorrosive coating using an anticorrosive coating
20 composition. In the anticorrosive coating, an anticorrosive
coating composition is applied on a surface of a steel plate or
the like to form an anticorrosive coating film having a thickness
of several hundred to several thousand micrometers. This allows
the surface of the steel plate or the like to be covered with the
SF-2761 2
anticorrosive coating film to prevent the steel plate or the like
from contacting with oxygen, salt, vapor, and the like, thereby
preventing the corrosion of the steel plate or the like.
[0003] In addition, when it is necessary to form a thick film
5 having a thickness of several hundred to several thousand
micrometers, an anticorrosive coating composition including an
amide wax-based thixotropic agent as an anti-sagging and
anti-settling agent (a thixotropic agent) iscused. Such an
anticorrosive coating composition is excellent in adhesion to
10 substrate surfaces of steel structures and the like and
anticorrosive properties under usual coating conditions.
[0004] As the coating composition, the present inventor has
disclosed an anticorrosive coating composition including a
non-tar-based epoxy resin, a curing agent, an epoxy
15 group-containing alkoxysilane compound, a specific flaky pigment,
and an extender pigment (Patent Literature 1).
In addition, in Patent Literature 2, there has been
disclosed an epoxy resin coating composition that includes a
bisphenol epoxy resin, an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, and
20 an amine-based curing agent.

SUMMARY OF INVENTION
TECHNICAL PROBLEM
[0006] A structure of a ship, such as a ballast tank, is also
required to have anticorrosive properties and thus subjected to
5 anticorrosive coating. For such a structure, an epoxy-based
anticorrosive coating composition is usually used. In order to
form an anticorrosive coating film having a sufficient film
thickness, the coating composition including ~n amide wax-based
thixotropic agent is applied and dried, and then furthermore, the
10 coating composition is applied thereon and dried, thereby forming
an anticorrosive coating film (double coating). In this case,
for obtaining anticorrosive properties, it is important to ensure
not only adhesion between a substrate and the coating film (or
anticorrosive coating film) formed by the first coating, but also
15 adhesion between the coating film (or the anticorrosive coating
film) formed by the first coating and the coating film (or
anticorrosive coating film) formed by the second coating.
[0007] Spray coating is often used to apply an anticorrosive
coating composition on such a ship structure. In this case, for
20 example, during the spray coating of a wall surface or a ceiling
surface, spray dust tends to attach onto a surface different from
a surface currently being coated, such as a floor surface.
[0008] In addition, particularly when the anticorrosive
coating composition is coated by the double coating, there are
SF-2761 4
cases in which a first coating film is formed on a part (A), and
then, without or while drying the coating film, a first coating
film is formed on another part (B) . During the formation of the
coating film on the part (B), spray dust (or the composition which
5 gives a spray dust through drying) can attach to the coating film
formed on the part (A) . In such a case, the spray dust is partially
taken into the coating film in a process up to drying the coating
film formed on the part (A) . It is thus diffi,cul t to remove the
spray dust attached to the coating film surface when performing
10 .a second coating.
[0009] The pres·ent inventors performed spray coatings using
conventionally known anticorrosive coating compositions such as
the coating compositions described in Patent Literature mentioned
above and found that spray dust as above tends to occur and reduce
15 the adhesion of a film formed thereon.
[ 0010 l In addition, even in the spray coating of an inside
of a ship, such as a ballast tank, where ventilation after coating
is difficult, a composition, which will become spray dust, can
attach, particularly, onto a floor surface and the like of the
20 ballast tank. Herein, due to the structure of the ballast tank,
the vapor of a solvent contained in the coating composition tends
to stay near the floor surface. Accordingly, the composition
attached onto the floor surface and the like tends to be dried
in the solvent atmosphere. In this case, the occurring spray dust
SF-2761 5
has been found to tend to significantly reduce the adhesion of
a film formed thereon.
[0011] The present invention has been accomplished in view
of such circumstances. It is an object of the present invention
5 to provide an anticorrosive coating composition that is excellent
in adhesion to a substrate and anticorrosive properties and whose
spray dust hardly reduces the adhesion of a film formed thereon
to an object to be coated (a target to be coated) even when the
spray dust has attached to the object to be coated.

described above, the present inventors discovered that the

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
[0024] FIG. 1 is a schematic view for explaining an adhesion
test in Examples.
DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS
[0025] <>
An anticorrosive coating composition of the present
invention (hereinafter also referred to simply as "composition
of the present invention") comprises an epoxy resin (a), a curing
agent (b), amide wax (c), and a liquid acrylic polymer (d)
10 including a structural unit derived from an acrylate having. an
alkyl group of 4 to 18 carbon atoms.
Since the composition of the present invention comprises
these (a) to (d), it is an anticorrosive coating composition that
is excellent in adhesion to a substrate and anticorrosive
15 properties and whose spray dust hardly reduces the adhesion of
a film formed thereon to an object to be coated even when the spray
dust has attached to the object to be coated.
[0026] Therefore, the composition of the present invention
is suitably used for use in the formation of a thick film having
20 a thickness of about 100 }liD or more, used for ship structures such
as a ballast tank, used for spray coating and used as a coating
composition under conditions in which spray dust of the
composition of the invention attaches.
[0027] The conditions in which spray dust of the composition
SF-2761 9
of the invention attaches are not particularly limited as long
as the conditions are those as below where spray dust is formed
from the composition of the present invention.
Specific examples of such conditions include conditions in
5 which during spray coating of the coating composition, the coating
composition attaches to a part different from a part currently
being coated (a part desired to be coated), and more specifically,
conditions in which in the spray coating of a ,large-sized steel
structure such as a ship, a land structure, or a bridge, there
10 is a part to be coated on a floor surface or the like located ,at
a distance of 1m or more below from a position of the spray coating,
and environmental conditions of coating in which a solvent that
can be contained in the composition readily evaporates such as
a temperature ranging from 10 tq 40°C and a humidity of 85% or
15 less.
[0028] The term "spray dust" in the present invention means
a coating composition dried after having attached to a part
different from a part currently being coated (a part desired to
be coated) during spray coating with a coating composition, for
20 example, onto a floor surface or the like during the coating of
a wall surface and a ceiling surface. Such spray dust usually
attaches to a part distant to some extent from a part currently
being coated (a part desired to be coated) in spray coating with
a coating composition.
SF-2761 10
In addition, spray dust causing reduction in the adhesion
of a film to an object to be coated tends to occur in the use of
an anticorrosive coating composition that is required to form a
thick film. This seems to be due to the fact that it is necessary
5 for an anticorrosive coating composition required to form a thick
film not to sag by itself in the formation of the thick film, namely,
to have excellent adhesion to a substrate, and in order to meet
the need, the composition includes amide wax as ,an anti-sagging
and anti-settling agent (a thixotropic agent) .
10 [0029] In addition, in the present invention, the term
"coating film" means a film that is undried or not completely dried
after applying the anticorrosive coating composition; the term
"anticorrosive coating film" means a film that has been dried and
cured after applying the anticorrosive coating composition; and
15 the term "film" means a film (whether dried or undried) formed
from a coating compo.sition (including an anticorrosive coating
composition) .
Additionally, in the present invention, the term "double
coating" means that after applying the composition of the present
20 invention to form a coating film, the film is dried and cured as
needed, and additionally, the same composition is applied thereon;
and the term "top coating" means that applying a composition
different from the composition of the formed the anticorrosive
coating film of the invention on the film.

Oil Chemicals Co., Ltd.
[0059] The amide wax (c) may be used as one kind alone or
in combination of two or more kinds.
5 [0060] As the results of diligent research, the present
inventors found that spray dust formed from the conventional
anticorrosive coating compositions including fatty acid amide wax
causes reduction in the adhesion of a film formect thereon to an
object to be coated.
10 Accordingly, when considering only the inhibition of
reduction in the adhesion of the film formed on the spray
dust-attached surface to the object to be coated, the composition
of the present invention preferably does not include the amide
wax (c). However, when the composition of the present invention
15 is used for purposes requiring anticorrosive properties,
particularly, for steel structures forming ships, an
anticorrosive coating film to be formed is required to have a
thickness of about 100 J..lffi or more. When forming an anticorrosive
coating film having such a thickness, for example, on wall surface
20 ,and ceiling surface substrates, it is necessary that the

compounds have been conventionally known to be used as an
anti-sagging and anti-settling agent (a thixotropic agent) in
order to improve adhesion of such a coating composition to a
substrate.
5 Taking all described above into consideration, the amide
wax (c) in the composition of the present invention has a content
(a nonvolatile content) of preferably from 0.05 to 15 parts by

The liquid acrylic polymer (d) includes a structural unit
derived from an acrylate having ~n alkyl group of 4 to 18 carbon

[0107] <>
The anticorrosive coating film of the present invention is
not particularly limited as long as it is a film formed from the
composition of the invention. The anticorrosive coating film of
5 the present invention is preferably a film obtained by forming
a coating film from the composition of the invention applied on
a substrate and then drying and curing the coating film.
Thus anticorrosive coating film has excell,ent anticorrosive
properties such as salt water resistance and high temperature and
10 high humidity resistance, excellent adhesion to a substrate, and
excellent properties in which spray dust of the composition hardly
reduces the adhesion of a film formed thereon to an object to be
coated even when the spray dust has attached to the object to be
coated.
15 [0108] The substrate is not particularly limited but
preferably a substrate for which anticorrosive properties are
required, from viewpoints such as that the effects of the present
invention can be further exhibited.
As such a substrate, preferred are substrates comprising
20 steel, non-ferrous metals (such as zinc, aluminium, and stainless
steel), or the like. Among structures such as ships, land
structures, and bridges comprising these materials, more
preferred ones are ship structures, among which a ballast tank
is more preferred. The ballast tank may be one subjected to
SF-2761 43
electric anticorrosion treatment by installation of an anode made
of zinc, zinc-aluminium, or the like. The electric anticorrosion
treatment is performed at a current density of preferably from
1 to 10 rnA/m2

5 [0109] The substrate may be one whose surface has been
treated (for example, blast treatment (ISO 8501-1 Sa2 1/2), a
friction method, an oil and dust removal treatment by degreasing,
and/or the like) as needed in order to remove .,rust, oil and fat,
water, dust, slime, salt, and the like and in order to improve
10 the adhesion of an anticorrosive coating film to be obtained. In
addition, from viewpoints such as anticorrosive properties,
weldability, and shearability of the substrate, the substrate may
be one whose surface when needed has been coated with a coating
material for thin-film formation, such as a conventionally known
15 primary anti-rust coating material (a shop primer), another primer,
or the like and then dried.
[0110] A method for applying the composition of the present
invention on the substrate is not particularly limited, and a
conventionally known method can be unlimitedly used. Preferred
20 is spray coating, from viewpoints such as that it is excellent
in workability, productivity, and the like; coating can be easily
performed even on a substrate with a large area; and the effects
of the present invention can be further exhibited.
When the composition of the present.invention is a
l-:
SF-2761 44
two-component type composition, a main agent component and a
curing agent component may be mixed together immediately before
coating and then spray coating or the like may be performed.
[0111] Conditions for the spray coating can be adjusted as
5 needed, in accordance with the thickness of an anticorrosive
coating film desired to be formed. For airless spraying, coating
conditions may be set to, for example, a primary (air) pressure
ranging from 0.4 to 0.8 Mpa, a secondary (coating material)
pressure ranging from 10 to 26 MPa, and a gun moving speed ranging
10 from 50 to 120 em/second.
[0112] A method for drying and curing the coating film is
not particularly limited. In order to shorten a time for drying
and curing, the coating film may be dried and cured by heating
at a temperature ranging from s,to 60°C. · How.ever, usually, the
15 coating film is dried and cured by allowing the film to stand at
room temperature in the air for from 1 to 14 days.
[0113] A film thickness of the anticorrosive coating film
is not particularly limited as long as the thickness can prevent
the corrosion of a substrate. The film thickness thereof is
20 preferably from 100 to 450 fill\ and more preferably from 250 to 400
J.lm.
In the formation of an anticorrosive coating film having
such a film thickness, single coating may be performed to form
an anticorrosive coating film having a desired thickness, or
SF-2761 45
depending on the anticorrosive properties, double coating (or more
than that, if needed) may be performed to form an anticorrosive
coating film having a desired thickness. Preferably, double
coating is performed to form an anticorrosive coating film having
5 a thickness in the above range, from viewpoints such as that there
can be formed an anticorrosive coating film having excellent
anticorrosive properties.
[0114] In the case of forming the anticorrosive coating film
on a ship structure such as a ballast tank as the substrate, the
10 film is required to have a thickness of 300 ~ or so. The
composition of the present invention has excellent adhesion to
a substrate, specifically, has excellent anti-sagging properties,
thereby facilitating the formation of an anticorrosive coating
film having such a thickness.
15 [0115] <>
A method for preventing corrosion of a substrate according
to the present invention is not particularly limited as long as
the method includes a step of applying the composition of the
invention on a substrate. Preferred is a method for preventing
20 corrosion of a substrate in which the composition of the invention
is applied on a substrate to form a coating film and then the
coating film is dried and cured.
In this method, the substrate, the coating method, and the
like may be the same as those described in the section of the
SF-2761 46
anticorrosive coating film.
[0116] In addition, in the method for preventing corrosion
of a substrate, a conventionally known top coating material such
as an antifouling paint may be applied, dried, and cured on an
5 obtained coating film or anticorrosive coating film depending on
the desired purpose.
[ 011 7] For example, a method for preventing corrosion of a
ballast tank will be performed as follows:
First, the composition of the present invention is spray
10 coated on a floor surface of the ballast tank (a first coating) .
Without or while drying the obtained coating film, the composition
of the invention is spray coated on a wall surface and a ceiling
surface. In this case, the composition which gives a spray dust
through drying, attaches onto the floor surface, and then drying
15 proceeds in a sol vent atmosphere. After the coating film on the
floor surface has been dried, the composition previously used is
spray coated again on the floor surface (a second coating). In
addition, the previously used composition is also similarly spray
coated again on the wall surface and the ceiling surface, resulting
20 in the formation of an anticorrosive coating film having a
thickness of 320 ~-tm or so on the floor surface, the wall surface,
and the ceiling surface.
The above method for preventing corrosion of a ballast tank
is the condition in which the spray dust tends to reduce the
SF-2761 47
adhesion of a film (which is a coating film and a dried coating
film obtained by the second coating) formed thereon to an object
to be coated (which is a spray dust-attached dried coating film
obtained by the first coating), as described above. However, the
5 use of the composition of the present invention hardly causes such
adhesion reduction.
10
On the other hand, the uses of the conventional
anticorrosive coating compositions result in, significant
adhesion reduction.
Examples
[0118] Hereinafter, the present invention will be further
described with reference to Examples. However, the invention is
not limited thereto.
[0119] Regarding anticorrosive coating films formed from
15 compositions obtained in Examples and Comparative Examples below,
tests (1) to (6) as below were conducted. Table 2 shows the
results.
(1) Salt Water Resistance Test
Salt water resistances of the anticorrosive coating films
20 were measured based on JIS K-5600 6-1. Specifically, the
measurements were conducted as follows:
Each of the compositions obtained in the Examples and
Comparative Examples below was spray coated to give a dry film
thickness of about 250 ~ on a steel plate having a size of 150
SF-2761 48
mm x 70 mm x 1.6 mm (thickness) subjected to blasting treatment
(hereinafter referred to also as "test plate") . The obtained test
plates with the coating film were dried in an atmosphere of 23°C
and 50% RH for 7 days to produce test plates with an anticorrosive
5 coating film. Using the test plates with the anticorrosive
coating film, the appearances of the anticorrosive coating films
after having been immersed in 3% salt water at 40°C for 90 days
were visually evaluated according to the fo~lowing criteria:

anticorrosive coating film produced in the same manner as in the
salt water resistance test to give an electric current density
20 of 5 mA/m2 or less, and then the test plates were immersed in 3%
salt water at 40°C for 90 days. After that, the appearances of
the anticorrosive coating films,,were visually evaluated according
to the following criteria:

[ 0 121] (3) Salt Water Spray Test
Based on JIS K-5600 7-1, a solution with a salt water
concentration of 5% was sprayed onto each of test plates with an
10 anticorrosive coating film produced in the same manner as in the
salt water resistance test, continuously for 90 days under a
condition of 35°C. Then, the appearances of the anticorrosive
coating films were visually evaluated according to the following
criteria:

rust, peeling, and hue.
[0122] (4) High Temperature and High Humidity Resistance
Test
High temperature and high humidity r.esistances of
SF-2761 50
anticorrosive coating films were measured based on JIS K-5600 7-2.
Specifically, the measurement was conducted as follows.
Using test plates with an anticorrosive coating film
produced in the same manner as in the salt water resistance test,
5 each of the test plates was kept in a tester with a temperature
of 50°C and a humidity of 95% for 90 days. Then, the appearances
of the anticorrosive coating films were evaluated according to
the following criteria:
(Evaluation Criteria)
10 A: There are no changes on blistering, cracking, rust,
peeling, and hue.
B: There are slight defects (changes) on any of blistering,
cracking, rust, peeling, and hue.
C: There are obvious changes on any of blistering, cracking,
15 rust, peeling, and hue.
[0123] (5) Second Coating Adhesion
Second coating adhesions of anticorrosive coating films
were measured based on JIS K-5400 8.5.3. Specifically, the
following steps were taken.
20 Each of the compositions obtained in the Examples and
Comparative Examples below was spray coated on each test plate
to give a dry film thickness of'about 160 f.Ull, whereby test plates
with a coating film were obtained. The obtained test plates with
the coating film were dried in an atmosphere of 23°C and 50% RH
SF-2761 51
for 1 day. Then, the same composition as that used to form the
coating film was spray coated on each of the obtained test plates
with the dried coating film to give a dry film thickness of about
160 ~m. The resulting test plates were dried in an atmosphere
5 of 23°C and 50% RH for 7 days to obtain test plates with an
anticorrosive coating film having a film thickness of 320 ~m.
[0124] Using the obtained test plates with the anticorrosive
coating film, a peeling state between. the ant~corrosive coating
films (a peeling rate) was evaluated according to the following
10 criteria. The evaluation will be described with reference to F.IG.
1.
An X-shaped incision 2 was formed on a surface of the
anticorrosive coating film 1 of each of the obtained test plates
with the anticorrosive coating film. In this case, an area within
15 a quadrangle formed by connecting four end portions of the two
cuts of the incision 2 was designated as an incision-formed area
3.
After that, an adhesive cellophane tape was stuck onto the
X-shaped incision and one end of the tape was peeled off at an
20 angle close to 90 degrees with respect to the surface of the
anticorrosive coating film to evaluate the peeling state between
the anticorrosive coating films (a peeling rate). Visual
estimation was made on a rate of the anticorrosive coating film
peeled off from the test plate with respect t.o the incision-formed
SF-2761 52
area 3 after peeling off the tape.
(Evaluation Criteria)
A: No peeling is observed.
B: Peeling rate is from 1 to 15% of the entire film.
5 C: Peeling rate is more than 15% of the entire film.
[0125] (6) Adhesion to Spray Dust-Attached Surface
Adhesion of anticorrosive coating films to a spray dust
(dust spray)-attached surface was measured b~sed on JIS K-5400
8. 5. 3. Specifically, the measurements were conducted as follows.
10 Test plates having a size of 150 x 70 x 1. 6 (thickness), mm
were placed in such a manner that surfaces thereof were
substantially vertical with respect to gravity, and then coated
with each of the anticorrosive coating compositions obtained in
the Examples and Comparative Examples below such that an obtained
15 anticorrosive coating film had a film thickness of 160 fUll, thereby
obtaining test plates with the coating film.
A coating film surface of each of the obtained test plates
with the coating film was coated with the same composition as that
used to form the coating film, by spray coating from a height of
20 3 m above the test plate, whereby the composition which gives a
spray dust through drying, was attached to about 95% or more of
a surface, area of the coating film. Immediately after the
attachment of the composition, the obtained test plate with the
composition that gives a spray dust was placed in a plastic box
SF-2761 53
at a height position of 8 em from the bottom of the box, the plastic
box having an opened top part with a size of 60 x 40 x 30 (height)
em, and having 200 g of xylene sprayed on a bottom thereof. Then,
the test plate was dried for 1 day.
5 The condition for attachment of the composition that gives
a spray dust and the condition for drying after the attachment
are those for recreating conditions similar to one example of
conditions for attachment of spray dust that can occur when the
composition of the present invention is used in a place where
10 coating is performed.
[0126] After drying in the above atmosphere for 1 day, the
same composition as that used to form the coating film was again
spray coated on obtained test plates with a dried coating film
to give a dry film thickness of about 160 J.U!l. Then, the test plates
15 were dried in an atmosphere of 23°C and 50% RH for 7 days to obtain
test plates with an anticorrosive coating film having a film
thickness of about 320 ~m.
[0127] After that, an X-shaped incision was formed on
surfaces of the anticorrosive coating films of the obtained test
20 plates with the anticorrosive coating film. Next, an adhesive
cellophane tape was stuck onto the X-shaped incision, and one end
of the tape was peeled off at an angle close to 90 degrees with
respect to the surface of the anticorrosive coating film to
evaluate a peeling state between the anticorrosive coating films

SF-2761 54
(a peeling rate) according to the following criteria. Numerical
values of the following evaluation criteria were estimated in the
same manner as the above description (5).
(Evaluation Criteria)
[ 012 8]
A: No peeling is observed.
B: Peeling rate is from 1 to 15% of the entire film.
C: Peeling rate is more than 15% of the entire film.

[0130] A liquid acrylic resin of (Note 16) was prepared as
follows.
Under a nitrogen gas flow, 200 g of butyl acetate was placed
in a 500 ml four-neck flask and heated to 125°C while stirring.
5 Then, 100 g of n-butyl acrylate, 100 g of iso-butyl acrylate, and
1.6 g of a polymerization initiator:
t-butylperoxy-2-ethylhexanoate (product name: KAYA ESTER 0
manufactured by Kayaku Akzo Co., Ltd.) were placed in a dropping
funnel, and the mixture was dropped in the heated flask over 3
10 hours. During the dropping, temperature inside the flask was
controlled to be a temperature of from 120 to 130°C.
After that, as a post reaction, the resultant was stirred
at 125°C for 4 hours, and then cooled down to 60°C or less to prepare
a butyl acetate solution of an acryl-based copolymer. The
15 obtained solution had a heating residue of 50%. A part of the
obtained solution was taken out and the solvent was evaporated
to obtain the acryl-based copolymer. A weight-average molecular
weight (Mw) of the acryl-based copolymer measured by GPC was about
15,000, and a glass transition temperature thereof measured by
20 DSC was about -36°C.

100 g of iso-butyl acrylate, and KAYA ESTER 0 ( 1. 6 g) were replaced
by 200 g of n-butyl acrylate and KAYA ESTER 0 (0. 9 g). The obtained
resin had a weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of about 15000
5 and a glass transition temperature of about -52°C.
[0132] Additionally, the liquid acrylic resin of (Note 18)
was prepared in the same manner as the resin of (Note 16) except
that, in the preparation of the resin of (Note 16), 100 g of n-butyl
acrylate, 100 g of iso-butyl acrylate, and KAYA ESTER 0 (1. 6 g)
10 were replaced by 200 g of 2-ethylhexyl acrylate and, as a

(product name: KAYA BUTYL B manufactured by Kayaku Akzo Co., Ltd) .
The obtained resin had a weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of
about 11000 and a glass transition temperature of about -72°C.
