Zinc-rich primers (ZRP) offer good anti-corrosive behaviour, and are an ecologically acceptable solution, when applied on carbon steel substrates that are rusted and contaminated with soluble salts (chlorides and sulphates), provided certain critical contamination thresholds are not exceeded. The use of phosphate-type co-pigments in ZRP formulations, could lead to an increase in tolerable critical levels for soluble salts. This work discusses the results of a comparative study carried out with ZRP and non-ZRP systems incorporating various types of co-pigments in several concentrations, applied on substrates contaminated with different chloride and sulphate levels. The study considers the results of atmospheric exposure test (24 months in Madrid atmosphere) and of accelerated humidity condensation tests.
