Study on Polymer Modified Cement-Based Coating with Healing Effect on Rusty Carbon Steel

Abstract EN

The anticorrosion properties of polymer emulsion modified cement-based coating with healing effect on carbon steel were investigated.

The change of linear polarization resistance ( R p ) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) have been used to measure the inhibitive and curative effect of electrodes painted with the coating in 3.5% NaCl solution.

The results indicated the high alkalinity of filler (cement) in coating can obviously improve the anticorrosion performance of coated steel electrodes.

And the inhibitive ability of cement-based coating with fluoride acrylic emulsion is superior to that of the coating with epoxy emulsion.

Moreover, by adding antirust pigments and rust converters in the fluoride acrylic emulsion modified cement-based coating, the inhibitive property was improved and the curative effect can be observed.
