Key Points

Molecular weight significantly influences water uptake in lignin-based coatings, enhancing their performance.
Corrosion resistance improves as molecular weight of lignin increases, leading to better protection.
Mechanical sieving was employed to achieve size-fractionated lignin for optimal incorporation into epoxy.
The approach highlights a potential for improving anticorrosive properties by adjusting lignin characteristics.

Implication

Analysis reveals molecular weight impacts water uptake in lignin-based epoxy coatings, suggesting enhanced corrosion resistance.

Abstract

While the challenges of incorporating raw softwood kraft lignin (KL) as particulate pigments in epoxy coatings were addressed using mechanically sieved, size-fractionated lignin, and its corrosion resistance was evaluated, a...
