Abstract: A pitch coated board and method of manufacture are disclosed. A porous or fibrous material, is coated and partially impregnated with a thin layer, less than 10 mil in thickness, of a petroleum or coal tar pitch. A high softening point, above 200F, coal tar or petroleum pitch is heated, then preferably roller coated on a fibrous material, then cooled within 1-2 seconds or less, to produce the pitch coated material. The porous material may be heated, preferably superficially, prior to application of the pitch to facilitate some penetration.

Abstract: Calcium or other sulfonate gel in an oil carrier (such as that of U.S. Pat. No. 4,629,753 to Quinn), optionally mixed with a small amount of sodium sulfonate and tall oil fatty acids, can be neutralized with amine, e.g. DMEA, to form a soap which can be dispersed in water. Adding an acrylic emulsion results in an acrylic coating rich in corrosion-retarding alkali metal or alkaline earth metla sulfonates. This finish on metallurgically roughened, e.g. nitrocarburized, metal forms a firm film which can resist greater than 500 hours ASTM B117 salt spray.

Abstract: Water reducible coating compositions comprising: an oxidized slack wax, paraffin wax or petrolatum; a low molecular weight polyethylene, polybutene, or polypropylene; naphthenic or paraffinic oil; a salt of a sulfonic acid, a nitrate, a nitrite, a borate or an amine soap of a fatty acid; a mixture of mineral spirits and ethylene glycol monopropyl ether; an unsaturated fatty acid (preferably oleic acid) and a fugitive amine (preferably 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol); and water are disclosed which provides improved corrosion resistant coatings for ferrous alloys.
