Statistical studies of branched ester latex and paint properties

Vinyl versatate, butyl acrylate and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate were compared as comonomer, for colloid-stabilized vinyl acetate latex polymers to assess their impact on latex coating properties. Vinyl versatate afforded advantages in scrub resistance, gloss, hydrophobicity and higher glass transition temperatures. Butyl acrylate developed better wet adhesion efficiency, gel content and hiding efficiency. 2-Ethylhexyl acrylate offered performance comparable to butyl acrylate in hiding efficiency, lowering copolymer glass transition temperatures, and gloss development. Combinations of these monomers, in many instances, afforded a better balance of performance properties than individual monomers alone. In the subject study, a simplex-centroid design was utilized to statistically map polymer compositions for determining the effect of comonomer composition on latex and paint film properties. In addition to developing contour maps of polymer and paint properties as a function of composition, a technique for studying structure-property relationships is presented.     

Emission Of Volatile And Semivolatile Organic Compounds From Waterborne Paints – The Effect Of The Film Thickness

A waterborne paint was applied to tin plated steel sheets with three different film thicknesses. The emission of volatile and semivolaile organic compounds ((S) VOCs) from the samples was measured in small climatic chambers under standard conditions over a two-week period. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of the film thickness on the emission rate decay. First order decay models, including sink effects for the high boiling (S) VOCs, were fitted to the concentration versus time data. The results showed that the first order rate constants decrease with increasing film thickness. In uddition, the results indicated that the emissions of the (S)VOCs in the waterborne paint film seemed to be controlled by evaporation. The thicknesses of paint films used in climatic chamber tests to estimate emission rates for product compurison or emission prediction must be known in order to prevent erroneous conclusions

Mechanisms of non-toxic anticorrosive pigments in organic waterborne coatings

Investigations have been carried out concerning the mechanism of the behaviour of non-toxic anticorrosive pigments belonging to the group of phosphates, ferrites and ion exchange pigments in waterborne systems. The mechanism controlling the protective effectiveness of organic coatings is complex and results from simultaneous activity of various agents, from among which the kind of the corrosion inhibitor and the structure of the coating are of fundamental importance. The effect of pigments on the protective properties of coatings was tested by means of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), scanning vibrating electrode technique (SVET) as well as the salt spray and Prohesion tests. For the investigation of the structure of coatings the porosymetric method and modulated-force thermomechanical analysis (mf TMA) were applied. The results of these investigations have shown that calcium zinc phosphate and zinc ferrite are the most effective. These pigments take part in the passivation of steel, which has been proved by the results of electrochemical investigations and by the presence of the passive layers as has been found out by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDXA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Calcium zinc phosphate and zinc ferrite affect the structure of the coatings, increasing the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the coatings. Zinc phosphate and calcium-exchanged silica do not act in compliance with electrochemical mechanism neither do they improve the barrier properties of the binder.     

Anticorrosive painting for a wide spectrum of marine atmospheres: Environmental-friendly versus traditional paint systems

This work presents some of the main results obtained in different marine atmospheres by Working Groups 1 and 2 (dedicated to anticorrosive protection of steel by paint coatings) of the Ibero-American PATINA network, developed in the context of the CYTED Programme. As marine atmospheres it includes natural atmospheres with a salinity level above S1 classification of ISO standard 9223 (>3 mg Cl⁻ m⁻² day⁻¹), and sulphur dioxide contamination only up to classification P1 of the same standard (maximum of 35 mg SO₂ m⁻² day⁻¹). Consideration is also made of accelerated tests traditionally used to assess the anticorrosive behaviour of the substrate/paint coatings contemplated in the study, namely salt spray, artificial weathering and different cycles involving ultraviolet radiation, humidity, temperature and different contamination conditions. The substrates were steel, hot-dip galvanised steel and electrogalvanised steel (Zincorr^® sheet). The paint systems applied on these substrates, with or without pretreatments, were solventborne, waterborne, high solid and powder paint systems. As a result it has been possible to conclude which of the studied anticorrosive coating types were the most suitable for each of the different types of marine atmospheres considered in the study.

Biodegradable sol–gel coatings of waterborne polyurethane/gelatin chemical hybrids

Gelatin from cold fish skin has strong mechanical properties and biodegradability. Cold fish gelatin was introduced into waterborne polyurethane (WPU) by covalent bonding to reinforce and render biodegradability of WPU. For this, gelatin was chemically modified with vinyltrimethoxysilane (VTMS) via the sol–gel type reactions and incorporated into hydroxyl ethyl acrylate (HEA) termini of WPU by UV curing. Covalent incorporations provided the hybrids with enhanced water resistance, hardness, glassy and rubbery state moduli, yield strength, and thermal resistance of soft segment along with significantly enhanced biodegradability both in trypsin solution and soil.
