Abstract

Abstract An epoxy resin formulation completely free of organic solvent was applied to carbon steel coupons using supercritical carbon dioxide (CO2) as the volatile solvent. Steel coupons coated in this manner were compared to coupons coated with a standard military specification marine primer (MIL-P-24441) during exposure to aerated 0.5 M sodium chloride (NaCl). The solvent-free coating protected the steel from corrosion in this environment as well, if not better than, the solvent-based primer.
