Coatings containing particulate metal alloy are disclosed. The coatings provide corrosion protection to a substrate, such as a metal substrate. The coatings contain zinc-metal-containing alloy in flake form, most particularly an alloy flake of zinc and aluminum. The coating can be from compositions that are water-based or solvent-based. The compositions for providing the coating may also contain a substituent such as a water-reducible organofunctional silane, or a hexavalent-chromium-providing substance, or a titanate polymer, or a silica substance constituent. the coating may desirably be topcoated.

Particulate metal alloy coating for providing corrosion protection

Coatings containing particulate metal alloy are disclosed. The coatings provide corrosion protection to a substrate, such as a metal substrate. The coatings contain zinc-metal-containing alloy in flake form, most particularly an alloy flake of zinc and aluminum. The coating can be from compositions that are water-based or solvent-based.

The coating may desirably be topcoated.

An anticorrosive coating composition comprising particulate metal, a chromic acid constituent, at least one organic liquid substance and a pH modifier if necessary, in which a part of the chromic acid constituent is replaced with boric acid component, is disclosed. Resulting coatings over metal substrates display excellent corrosion-resistant properties in fresh water environments as well as in salt water environments.
