The effect of the addition of the zinc molybdenum phosphate pigment, on the corrosion resistance properties of powder coating on steel, has been investigated by means of different electrochemical techniques: electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and the accelerated cyclic electrochemical technique (ACET). Anticorrosive properties obtained from both techniques showed similar results.Powder coatings incorporating this pigment have shown better performance which is ascribed to both barrier properties enhancement and inhibition action of the pigment. This behavior can be correlated to the results obtained in the pigment extract study (polarization test and EIS). Finally, salt fog spray test was performed to confirm the electrochemical tests results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
