Main compositions of powder paint based on thermoset type epoxy resin consist of epoxy resin for powder coating, curing agent, filler and pigment. The curing system used in this study was based on diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A (DGEBA) and dicyan diamide (DICY). The curing behavior and rheological properties of powder coating material were investigated using DSC and rheometer, respectively. And the adhesion strength between steel and powder coating material was measured using lap shear geometry. The optimum formulation of epoxy powder paint obtained from this study was base resin of 100 phr, DICY of 6 phr, $CaCO_3$ of 20 phr, and $TiO_2$ of 10 phr.

Environmental friendly UV-curable coatings, having excellent hardness, gloss, mar and chemical resistance, are commonly used for the wooden flooring coatings. Especially epoxy acrylate oligomers are chosen for the wooden flooring coatings, due to their thermal stability and fast curing. In this study, we investigated the effect of the acrylate functionality on the thermal stability and surface hardness. The thermal degradations of monomers, oligomer, photoinitiator and formulated coatings with different acrylate functionality were measured using a thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). And the surface hardness was also measured with a pendulum hardness tester to compare relationship between the thermal stability and the physical property. The cured coatings became thermally stable by crosslinking during UV-curing. Both the thermal stability and surface hardness of cured coatings were improved with increasing acrylate functionality.

In the present work, the breakup mechanism of highly viscous epoxy paints discharged from a fan spray nozzle was examined experimentally. The paints tested were non-Newtonian fluids, composed of epoxy resin, solid particles and other additives. The paint spray discharged from the nozzle was visualized and recorded using a digital camera with back illumination. Due to presence of the solid particles, perforation of liquid sheet was observed in most cases, even at low-Reynolds number conditions (Re < 15,000) where the aerodynamic-wave breakup mode is used to be dominant for pure liquids. However, with the increase of the particle concentration, the sheet became longer and the thickness at breakup became thinner to some extent. This is because, with higher concentration of solid particles, the stabilizing effect by the viscosity increase predominates over the destabilizing effect by perforation.

Substituted dicyandiamide(Sub-DICY), Accelerated dicyandiamide(Acc-DICY), Trimellitic anhydride(TMA), Pyromellitic dianhydride(PMDA) and Phenolic curing agent(Ph.C.A.) are mainly used for epoxy powder coating curing agent. Various characteristics of epoxy films fully cured by optimum condition such as mechanical properties like $T_g$, tensile strength, elongation at break hardness, abrasion resistance and chemical properties like water absorption, acid resistance, alkali resistance and electrical properties, corrosion resistance are determined by various measuring devices and analyses devices. In conclusion, phenolic curing agent was shown excellent thoughness but severe color change as temperature increased. Acid anhydride has excellent insulation properties and color stability at elevated temperature but lower thoughness and adhesion to substrate. DICY curing agent was shown high water absorption and severe color chance as temperature increased.

현재 널리 적용되고 있는 유기에폭시 도장의 경우에는 부식환경을 차단하는 등의 일반적인 차원에는 상당히 우수하나, 열이나 빛에 의한 열화 및 부식 문제와 환경오염 등의 문제를 가지고 있다. 이를 해결하기위한 방법으로 순수 무기계의 액상 규산질을 바인더로 사용한 도료의 제작을 시도하였으며, 열화성능평가시험을 통해 그 적용가능성에 대해 검토하였다. 실험결과 환경친화적인 -Si-O-Si- 결합의 1액형 무기 규산질 도료의 제작이 가능하였으며 향후 여러 가지 성능 중 특히 내식성, 내산성 및 광택성 등의 보완연구가 선해오디어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Generally, organic paint on steel towers can guarantee durability in normal condition but occasionally shows its deterioration on the power line tower and electric power facilities, exposed to light(ultra violet) or heat. The objective of this study is to develope the inorganic paint material based on fluid silicic acid for steel electric power facilities. For the purpose, optimal mixture proportion is derived through 6 preliminary test and, additionally physical and durability performance test are carried out for selected specimens. The performances of developed organic paint material is similar to those of organic paint material. If resistance to chemical attack is improved, the developed inorganic paint is evaluated to replace the organic paint and obtain wide application.

In this study, both evaluations by visual imaging for exterior view of coating and by EIS were executed for epoxy primer coated specimens deteriorated by accelerated test, and comparison and analysis were carried out for 2 evaluation methods. In the comparison between total damaged area ratio acquired by image processing method and deterioration point, higher deterioration points were appeared for rusted specimens than for non-rusted specimens. It is attributed that deterioration point per unit area ratio given for rust is higher than for peeling. In the comparison between total damaged area ratio and EIS result, impedance of coating was largely decreased as about TEX>$10^4{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$ or less when rust area ratio is more than about 0.1%, and blistering area ratio is more than about 3%. Charge transfer resistance ($R_{ct}$) and double layer capacitance ($C_{dl}$) values were appeared for all specimens except 2 ones, which shows that water is accumulated and steel substrate is corroded at coated film-steel interface. In the comparison between deterioration point and EIS result, more than 10 points as deterioration point were given for specimens of below $10^6{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$ of impedance at low frequency. For specimens deteriorated by NORSOK cyclic test, impedance was lowest of all, though deterioration point was not high. It is thought to be attributed that coating system and accelerated deterioration condition of cyclic tested specimens were different from those of main specimens. From the result, it is thought that coating resistance can be relatively more decreased than deterioration degree estimated from exterior view under more severe corrosion environment or in the present of more complex deterioration factors.

Coating appearance is the most important problem in automotive industry. To increase the coating appearance quality, the corrosion resistance and the coating adhesion on metal substrates must be basically solved. The phosphating film made by the pretreatment of metal substrate is important factor to increase the coating adhesion. During the cathodic electrodeposition, the pH at the cathode surface increases up to about 12. In such a highly alkaline condition, the dissolution of metal substrate and phosphate film occurs. These phenomena result in the decrease of the bonding strength between the phosphating film and the substrate. Generally, the structure of zinc phosphating film is hopeite or phosphophyllite. It has been known that the phosphophyllite film contains better corrosion resistance and paint adhesion for hot water immersion test because of the decrease of dissolving amount of both metal substrate and phosphating film during the cathodic electrodeposition. It is found that the addition of Ni and Mn composition increase P-ratio and then can improve the paint adhesion on metal surface and the corrosion resistance.

This study deals with the analysis of color-difference and physical property of anti-corrosion coatings using at inside of concrete tank for drinking water. Because anti-corrosion coatings are effected by chemical attack, color and physical property are changed. So in this study when epoxy resin coatings of 3 types were received chemical attack by Cl- and NaOH, we present the co-relationship between color-difference and bond strength. For this study, we used the colorimetry, which can measure the degree of color difference on surface of materials. As the results, in case of Cl-, color change is appeared, bond strength also is decreased. From this experiment, we could know that color change due to chemical aging has the deep relationship with physical performance(bond strength) materials. further researches are needed.
