Abstract
Improvements in MolyPhos corrosion resistant coatings for zinc plated surfaces and zinc alloy surfaces are presented, which enhances corrosion protection in marine environments, and other corrosive atmospheres. In particular a cerium fluoride stabilized MolyPhos coating, and organic acid stabilized coatings are provided, which improve resistance to standard salt fog test exposures to at least 300 hrs, thus extending applicability of a conventional MolyPhos coating to applications to telecommunications, electronics, automotive and aviation equipment. MolyPhos coatings offer promise as an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional chromate corrosion coatings.
