[0001] This invention belongs to the field of heavy-duty anti-corrosion coating technology, and particularly relates to a high-solids-content, low-VOC waterborne two-component heavy-duty anti-corrosion primer and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of industrial corrosion protection, solvent-based heavy-duty anti-corrosion primers have long dominated the market due to their excellent film-forming properties and anti-corrosion effects. However, their solvent systems contain a large amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), with typical products having a VOC content exceeding 300g / L, which seriously pollutes the environment and endangers the health of construction workers.
[0003] Existing water-based heavy-duty anti-corrosion primers suffer from the following core technological bottlenecks:
[0004] Low solid content: This results in insufficient film thickness in a single application, requiring multiple coats to achieve an effective anti-corrosion film thickness, leading to low construction efficiency and high energy consumption.
[0005] Insufficient corrosion resistance: Traditional water-based resins rely on added emulsifiers, which easily form defects in the paint film, have poor dispersion stability of pigments and fillers, and have low corrosion resistance time in salt spray tests;
[0006] Incomplete curing: The water-based curing agent has poor compatibility with the resin and low crosslinking density, resulting in poor solvent resistance and mechanical properties of the paint film. Summary of the Invention
