每年因為腐蝕造成的經濟損失相當可觀，腐蝕組織(National association of corrosion engineers, NACE International)調查，約佔全球生產總值3.4%，因此，2025年全球防腐塗料的市場將高達375.9億美元。2017年初美國通過禁止出售含有二苯甲酮、桂皮酸鹽的防曬乳產品，係因該類化學物質會影響珊瑚等生物生長，破壞海洋生態，而其中二苯甲酮為塗料中常用之紫外線吸收劑，為抗蝕塗料的重要配方，本研究以發展環境友善塗料為目標。
本研究探討以石墨烯、奈米碳管添加於富鋅環氧底漆，並以石墨烯取代傳統的紫外線吸收劑，添加於有機矽環氧面漆，並以耐候測試、鹽霧腐蝕測試、附著力測試等試驗，評估各配方塗料之性能，藉由改變石墨烯、奈米碳管、鋅粉、樹脂等關鍵因子，進一步優化配方。並於測試中納入多種市售產品做對比，其中包含PPG、Sherwin-Williams、關西等國際塗料大廠。
各種測試結果顯示，本研究之塗料均具有優異防蝕耐候之功效，其中石墨烯、奈米碳管以及鋅粉為主要抗蝕主劑，其機制分別為阻隔外界水氣、空氣及增加電連續性、陰極保護。此外，除實驗室內模擬加速測試之外，發展之塗料也於今年五月實地塗佈於彰濱工業區之儲槽，未來將進一步用於位於高雄洲際碼頭之儲槽，並進行生產製程放大，以達商品化之目的。

The economic losses resulted from corrosion are significant every year, which is 3.4% of global GDP, reported by National association of corrosion engineers (NACE International). The global market size of anti-corrosion paint will be hence increased to USD 37.59 billion in 2025. At the beginning of 2017, the oxybenzone and octinoxate are prohibited as additive for sun lotion in the United States, due to their negative effect on the growth of corals and marine ecology. However, the oxybenzone with excellent property for ultraviolet absorption is an important ingredient of anti-corrosion paint. The goal of this work is to develop the environmentally friendly paint.
In this study, graphene and carbon nanotubes were used as additives for zinc-rich epoxy paint. In the development of silicone epoxy topcoat, graphene was also applied to replace traditional ultraviolet absorber. The prepared paints were evaluated by weather resistance test, corrosion resistance test, adhesion test, etc. Furthermore, paint formulas were optimized by adjusting key factors such as amount of graphene, amount of zinc powder, and amount of resin. Various commercially available products, PPG, Sherwin-Williams, and Kansai Paints, were selected as reference and evaluated in the same time for comparison.
The test results showed the prepared paints exhibited good corrosion and weather resistance. Graphene, carbon nanotubes and zinc powder are the major anti-corrosive ingredients. The mechanisms were attributed to blocking external moisture and air, increasing electrical continuity, and cathodic protection. In addition to accelerated tests in laboratory, these prepared paints were also applied to the storage tanks in Changhua coastal industrial park in this May. It was planned to apply to the tanks in Kaohsiung intercontinental container terminal in the near future as well. The results of this work showed the practicability for mass production and commercialization.
