The white or black particles may be coated with a synthetic resin in the surface.Type: GrantFiled: April 18, 1990Date of Patent: January 22, 1991Assignee: Catalysts & Chemicals Industries Co., Ltd.Inventors: Goro Sato, Michio Komatsu, Hiroyasu Nishida, Yoshichika Tanaka, Tsuguo Koyanagi, Kei-ichi Mihara

Patent number: 4975323Abstract: The conductivity of ground ferrophosphorus particles is increased by contacting the particles with an aqueous solution of hypophosphorus acid, preferably at a temperature between room temperature and about 50.degree.C. The particles are then washed and dried and can be mixed with resinous binders to formulate coating compositions. The coating compositions are particularly useful for coating galvanized steel that is to be welded.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 1989Date of Patent: December 4, 1990Assignee: Occidental Chemical CorporationInventor: Donald H.
