Benefits of Micaceous Iron Oxide, Aluminum Flake and Glass Flake Filled High Performance Coatings

For several decades, engineered coatings have been used to protect steel from corrosion. Many formulas were made and tested for their ability to prevent corrosion. Changes in the formulas would include different resins, pigments, solvents and additives. In this paper, we will talk about three specific pigments, which are also commonly referred to as reinforcing pigments.

For several decades, engineered coatings have been used to protect steel from corrosion. Many formulas were made and tested for their ability to prevent corrosion. Changes in the formulas would include different resins, pigments, solvents and additives. In this paper, we will talk about three specific pigments, which are also commonly referred to as reinforcing pigments. These reinforcing pigments are micaceous iron oxide, aluminum flake and glass flake. These fillers when used in high performance coatings will improve various performance properties. Improved performance properties would include film strength, flexibility, impermeability, temperature resistance, abrasion resistance, edge retention, cathodic protection, chemical resistance and corrosion resistance.
