Description
Summary:Corrosion is a perennial problem that has a significant burden on the economy and environment. Recent studies have suggested that organic fillers can serve as corrosion inhibitors. In this work, the use of comminuted waste plastic sachets (WPS) as an anti-corrosion additive to commercial coating was explored. The effect of WPS lamination and loading on the viscosity, film thickness, and corrosion behavior of a red oxide primer paint was investigated. Results show that the viscosity and film thickness of the coating were only affected by the addition of WPS at high loading. At low loading, comminuted WPS reduced the corrosion rate of the coating by 99%. The presence of metal lamination in WPS contributes to the corrosion resistance of the coating. In conclusion, comminuted WPS demonstrates its potential in enhancing the anti-corrosion properties of coatings.
