Abstract
1K FEVE Blends With Improved Corrosion Resistance

Fluoroethylene vinyl ether (FEVE) based topcoats are well known for their extremely long-lasting gloss and color retention exceeding 40 years of service.  In this study, we evaluated blends of various acrylic resins to determine if the low water absorption and high durability against UV degradation of a FEVE-based resin can offer additional corrosive protection when used in a topcoat as a single pack 1K coating formulation.  Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used along with other accelerated testing methods including cyclic salt fog/UV exposure to evaluate corrosion resistance.
