2014 ACR Webinar Series Today s Topic: Waterborne Coatings for Metal Speaker: Jeffrey Arendt Title: Technical Account Coordinator
Our training goal Give you the knowledge necessary to answer your customer s questions, concerning metal coatings, with confidence Outline the maintenance coatings market Review corrosion chemistry Discuss formulating of maintenance paints Describe testing protocols Highlight several Arkema products and describe their performance benefits 3
Agenda Maintenance Coatings Market Common types of metals Corrosion Fundamentals Describing Topcoats, Primers and Direct to Metal (DTM) needs Maintenance Coatings formulating and testing ACR product overview and product spotlight Recap 4
Maintenance Coating Market 5
6 Maintenance coatings for metal represent ~5% of total paint sales
7 Maintenance coatings for metal is growing
8 The price for maintenance coatings has been flat
9 Maintenance coating market is highly consolidated
10 Maintenance coating market is highly profitable
11 67% of all maintenance coatings sold are for rehab
12 Metal coatings market is 25% water borne
Key takeaways Volume for the segment is projected to grow at 1.3% annually. Due to anticipated price increases, the value of the segment will grow at a faster rate of 5.4%. All segments with the exception of highway and bridges are projected to grow. Spending for industrial maintenance coatings are influenced by the overall economy, public and private construction, the price of oil and public spending on infrastructure. Water-based acrylic and alkyd will grow at the expense of solvent borne. 13
Common Metal Types 14
Steel is the most abundant metal used in construction Types of steel and its alloys Mild steel (carbon steel) Cold rolled steel Phosphated Prepainted Stainless (200, 300-series) Steel is a ferrous metal, if exposed to moisture and oxygen it will rust 15
Types Aluminum is inherently more corrosion resistant than steel, but. Many Alloys Untreated Treated (chromated) Prepainted Corrosion resistance is due to the formation of a low permeability oxide layer 16
Galvanized coating provides a sacrificial protective layer Some common types include Hot dipped galvanize (HDG) Electrogalvanized 17
18 Galvanized metal will eventually corrode
Corrosion Fundamentals 19
20 Corrosion requires water and oxygen, and is accelerated by water soluble salts
Rust convertors consolidate the corrosion layer but do not prevent future deterioration Rust convertors are sometimes used by consumers to paint over rust with minimal surface preparation These products are based on tannic and/or phosphoric acid and function by attempting to passivate the pre-corroded surface by converting the iron (III) oxide to iron phosphate and iron tannate These products produce a hard surface that can be painted over. Long term effects are debatable. A US military study in the mid-1980 s showed these products can actually accelerated corrosion after a period of time. 21
Topcoats, Primers and DTM systems 22
Primers ensure proper adhesion to the substrate Primers must adhere well to the intended metal substrate Primers often contain anti-corrosive pigments to provide maximum protection Since UV resistance is not needed a wider range of primer compositions are available Topcoat Primer Metal Substrate 23
Topcoats provide an aesthetically pleasing finish Topcoat Primer Metal Substrate The primary functions of the topcoat is to enhance aesthetics and to protect primer from environment For exterior environments weatherability is needed Gloss Retention Color Retention Water Resistance Resistance to specific environmental degradants (i.e. chemicals, dirt, etc.) Excellent compatibility and adhesion to primer is required 24
DTM Must perform both primer and topcoat functions Shipping Containers Protective Coatings 25
Maintenance Coating Formulating 26
Paints are complex mixtures of raw materials Component Polymer Coalescent Primary Pigments Extender Pigments Anticorrosive Pigments Flash Rust Inhibitors Dispersants & Surf. Defoamer Preservative/Mildewcide Thickener/Rheo. Mod. Misc. Additives Function Film Former Plasticizer Hiding Power Control Gloss Inhibit Corrosion Alleviate Flash Rust Wetting Eliminate Foam Prevent Microbials Application Anti-Mar, etc. 27
Binder holds the pigment together Water-borne latex Acrylic Styrene acrylic Alkyd Emulsions Formulates like a latex but requires a metal drier (ex. cobalt naphthenate) 28
Pigments provide color and hiding Prime Hiding and color Titanium dioxide, Iron oxides, Organic pigments Functional imparts specific properties Corrosion Inhibitive Pigment Zinc Phosphate: Corrosion control Zinc oxide: Corrosion resistance mildew resistance Extender flatness, sheen control, cost Calcium Carbonate: Used in both interior and exterior paints, a general purpose, low cost, low hide pigment. Silica: Provides enhanced durability in exterior paints as well as scrub and abrasion resistance. Talc: A soft, general purpose extender pigment. 29
Pigment volume concentration is a key formulation parameter Pigment Volume Concentration (PVC): PVC = x 100% volume of pigment volume of pigment + volume of binder solids 30
PVC tells us about the nature of the paint film Critical Pigment Volume Concentration (CPVC) CPVC marks the transition from a system in which the pigment is dispersed in a continuous binder matrix to one where there is insufficient binder to completely encapsulate all the pigments. paint film pigment substrate Low PVC Film (< CPVC) CPVC Film High PVC Film (> CPVC) 31
Coatings properties change dramatically at CPVC blistering gloss CPVC film tensile adhesion permeability rusting PVC 32
Formulating paints for metal substrates have many similarities to other coatings Coatings used on metal substrates: Vary in sheen from Gloss to Flat Covers the PVC range but usually below CPVC Vary in VOC content coalescence and freeze/thaw additives will impact Solvent release is critical to achieve good early water resistance Can be applied either by brush, roller or spray gun Rheology modifiers impacted 33
Film formation is critical! Poor coalescence can lead to channels for water to migrate through the film Latex particles must fuse tightly together. Application temperature is important 34
Film thickness will impact coating performance Higher film thickness = better barrier = better corrosion Multiple thin coats are theoretically preferred to achieve the target film thickness as this will correct for missed or thin spots DTM coatings typically are applied in fewer coats (often one coat) to save labor and time. 2 mils 4 mils 18 mils 20 mils 6 mils 22 mils 8 mils 24 mils 10 mils 26 mils 35
Primers must exhibit good adhesion and low porosity Primers must have adhesion to the target metals To make the path of water ingress more tortuous platy talcs are often used to lengthen the path from the surface to the metal. The inclusions of talc and anti-corrosive pigment increases the PVC. Stay safely below the CPVC. surface water molecule talc particle metal substrate 36
Anti-corrosive pigments react with metal surface to yield a protective layer Courtesy of ICL (Halox) 37
38 Anti-corrosive pigments enhance coating performance
Flash rust is a challenge particular to coating metal Flash Rust can occur immediately after application of water based coatings on ferrous metals Additives of various chemistries are used in water based systems to eliminate this problem Sodium Nitrite salt is one of the the most commonly used add additives. Can be exacerbated by high humidity or other conditions that slow the dry time of the coating Courtesy of Raybo Chemical 39 Handbook of Coating Additives 2 nd Edition, Florio and Miller
Additive type and quantity affects performance The photo shows the results from two different dispersants. Surfactants should be minimized Surfactants migrate to metal interface Reduce adhesion Affect water resistance Affect corrosion resistance All hydrophilic ingredients should be scrutinized Hydrophilic solvents Rheology modifiers ph control additives Avoid cellulosic thickeners Dispersant A Dispersant B ASTM B117-24 hours 40
Maintenance Coating Testing 41
Cross hatch tape pull is the industry standard for assessing adhesion ASTM D 3359 Wet and Dry 42
Cleveland Humidity Cabinet is used to assess blistering and gloss loss ASTM D 2247 Blistering Gloss loss 43
Salt Fog is the industry standard for assessing corrosion resistance, but ASTM B 117 A Static Condition Test 5% NaCl salt fog atmosphere 35 ºC Results Blistering Corrosion Scribe Creep Undercut 44
Cyclic Prohesion is believed to be a better predictor of real world performance ASTM G 85 Test cycles between wet and dry phases Wet phase subjects samples to salt spray 0.35% wt Ammonium sulfate and 0.5wt% NaCl salt fog atmosphere 35 ºC 45
Chemical Resistance is another important performance characteristic ASTM D4752- MEK Double Rub Test Count number of rubs to failure Chemical Spot testing Monitor film for deterioration 46
