    Anticorrosive pigments

    Anti-corrosive pigments are pigments used in coatings to protect metal surfaces from corrosion. These pigments protect metal surfaces through several mechanisms: barrier formation, inhibition, sacrificial protections and passivation. These mechanisms work together to significantly extend the life of metal structures by preventing or slowing down the corrosion process.
