The emphasis of the paper would be to demonstrate the importance of coherent film formation to derive superior anti-corrosive coatings. The principles of film formation of solvent borne polymer in comparison with waterborne dispersed polymer will be discussed. Two examples of latex polymers will then be presented highlighting the influence of additives such as surfactant and coalescing agent on the film formation process. The examples will include a chloropolymer latex and a styrene-acrylic polymer latex. Results from Electron Microscopy, Atomic Force Microscopy, Moisture Vapour Transmission Measurement, A/C Impedance Measurement, Hot Salt Spray Performance, etc. will be presented.
