Abstract

The zinc-rich coating prevents steel from corrosion by sacrificing electrochemical cathode anode protection, but the zinc content is the most important parameter. In this paper, the zinc-rich coatings made with the amino resin, acrylic resin, complex solvents, auxiliary agents and high purity zinc powder. The coatings were applied onto steel substrate and then placed in neutral salt spray for 3000 h in order to study the anti-corrosion performance. The results showed that the anti-corrosion performance was promoted with the zinc content increasing. When the zinc content was higher than 86 wt. %, the anti-corrosion performance can be reached 3000 h. The anticorrosion mechanisms were studied by polarization curves and scanning electron microscope (SEM).
