The present invention provides a nano phosphatic hybrid geopolymeric corrosion resistant coating material. The tailored precursor of corrosion resistant coating material is obtained by a process involving, together dry grinding of raw materials fly ash, sodium hydroxide, rice husk, tri calcium phosphate and cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide optionally with sodium silicate, in solid powder form. The developed coating material obtained by adding water to tailored precursor contains nano sized phosphatic compounds of Cancrisilite (sodium aluminum carbonate silicate hydrate), quartz, mullite, heamatite, sodium aluminum silicate, Herschelite (sodium aluminum silicate hydrate), Sucrose, D-Glucose, Native cellulose, and phenol, responsible for providing improved corrosion resistant properties and adhesion to the mild steel substrates. The geo-polymeric coating material is used as an anti-corrosive, heat resistant coating material on various materials e.g. mild steel substrates.

A graphene composite coating on a metal surface with excellent corrosion resistance by electrophoretic or electrolytic deposition has been obtained. The composite coating was shown to significantly increase the resistance of the metal surface to electrochemical degradation. The graphene coating significantly reduces cathodic current, which is an indicator of the rate of corrosion at the interface between the cathodic material and the anodic material.

A method of selecting a corrosion-inhibiting substance includes selecting a corrosion-inhibiting substance to include a non-tungstate anodic corrosion inhibitor with respect to an amount of zinc in an aluminum alloy substrate that is to be coated with the corrosion-inhibiting substance.

A one-part, storage-stable, air-dryable, latex-coatable waterborne film-forming coating composition has dispersed therein sufficient conductive material to provide an autoweldable hardened shop primer layer when applied to metal components. The thus-primed components may be welded together using automated arc welding equipment without having to remove the coating composition at the weld site. The conductive material desirably causes little or no airborne emission of unsafe quantities of heavy metals or other harmful substances when the primer is volatilized or combusted during welding.

A coating comprising MgO, amino acid and a film-forming resin are disclosed as are methods of curing such a coating to coat at least a portion of a substrate and a substrate coated thereby.
