Abstract: The present invention relates to a corrosion inhibitor and a corrosion inhibiting coating provided for coating a metal, particularly but not exclusively steel. The inhibitors pigment will also protect aluminium and magnesium alloys. The corrosion inhibitor particularly protects a sacrificial coating such as zinc or zinc alloy on galvanised steel, which in turn therefore provides improved corrosion resistance to the underlying steel. The present invention comprises an organic cation in a cation exchange resin.
Abstract: A corrosion inhibiting additive and a corrosion inhibiting coating including the additive for providing corrosion resistance to a metal are provided. The corrosion inhibiting additive includes a first corrosion inhibiter comprising an organic cation in a cation exchange resin and a second corrosion inhibiter includes a phosphate compound. The corrosion inhibiting additive is for incorporation into a coating having at least a polymer binder.
