2. Rust converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rust_converter

   Rust converters are chemical solutions or primers that can be applied directly to an iron or iron alloy surface to convert iron oxides into a protective chemical barrier. These compounds interact with iron oxides, especially iron(III) oxide , converting them into an adherent black layer ( black oxide ) that is more resistant to moisture and ...

3. Primer (paint) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primer_(paint)

   Primer reduces the number of paint coats needed for good coverage and even color. A thin layer of paint may still be permeable to water. Water can permeate into the wood and cause warping, mildew, or dry rot. Primer improves the waterproofing of the finish. [4] Primers are not used as part of a wood stain treatment because they obscure the wood ...

4. Lead (II,IV) oxide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead(II,IV)_oxide

   Lead(II,IV) oxide, also called red lead or minium, is the inorganic compound with the formula Pb 3 O 4. A bright red or orange solid, it is used as pigment, in the manufacture of batteries, and rustproof primer paints. It is an example of a mixed valence compound, being composed of both Pb(II) and Pb(IV) in the ratio of two to one. [2]

5. Zinc chromate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc_chromate

   During the 1940 and 1950s it was typically found as the "paint" in the wheel wells of retractable landing gear on US military aircraft to protect the aluminium from corrosion. This compound was a useful coating because it is an anti-corrosive and anti-rust primer. [8] Since it is highly toxic, it also destroys organic growth on the surface.

6. Automotive paint - Wikipedia

   Automotive paint is paint used on automobiles for both protective and decorative purposes. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Water-based acrylic polyurethane enamel paint is currently the most widely used paint for reasons including reducing paint's environmental impact .

7. Lead paint - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead_paint

   4, "chrome yellow"), lead(II,IV) oxide, (Pb 3 O 4, "red lead"), and lead(II) carbonate (PbCO 3, "white lead") are the most common forms. [1] Lead is added to paint to accelerate drying, increase durability, maintain a fresh appearance, and resist moisture that causes corrosion. It is one of the main health and environmental hazards associated ...
