The inhibitory properties of ion-modified zeolite for priming paint coatings

The anticorrosion environmentally friendly pigments based on synthetic zeolite for paint coatings were obtained by liquid-phase ion exchange method. Zeolite was modified with zinc, calcium and manganese ions. The corrosion resistance of 09G2C steel in 0.1% NaCl solution and in suspensions of modified zeolite was investigated by potentiodynamic polarization method. It was shown that the use of zeolite modified with cations of divalent metals contributes to the reduction of corrosion currents. It was found that the zeolite modified with zinc cations exhibits the most anticorrosion effect relative to 09G2C steel, as indicated by the values of corrosion currents (which are ~2 times smaller than in the non-inhibited solution) and the results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The surface morphology of 09G2S steel after exposure to the inhibited media was determined by scanning electron microscopy. Protection mechanism of the modified zeolite was suggested.

Effects of Zinc Addition on the Corrosion Behavior of Pre-Filmed Alloy 690 in Borated and Lithiated Water at 330 °C

The purpose of this work is to quantify the effects of dissolved zinc cations on corrosion and release rates from a pre-filmed Alloy 690 steam generator tubing material that was subsequently exposed to water containing zinc. The corrosion tests were performed in circulating 2 ppm Li and 1000 ppm B water without and with 60 ppb zinc at 330 °C. Gravimetric analyses and oxide characterization revealed that the corrosion rates, release rates, and oxide thicknesses decreased by subsequent exposure of the pre-filmed Alloy 690 to zinc. These benefits are attributed to the formation of a chromium-rich inner oxide layer incorporating zinc.

Local administration and enhanced release of bone metabolic antibodies from hydroxyapatite/chondroitin sulfate nanocomposite microparticles using zinc cations

A model of the diffusion of IgG molecules in the pores of HAp/ChS microparticles in the presence of zinc cations is shown. Zinc cations adsorbed on the microparticles can improve human IgG diffusion in the pores to increase the subsequent release.
