Coatings for a substrate include a paint or a lacquer and about 0.1% or more particles of a bi-axially oriented metalized polymer film. The film may not be soluble in a solvent or a dispersion medium of the paint or the lacquer. Coatings may be formed by bi-axially orienting a polymer film to obtain a bi-axially oriented polymeric film having thickness of at least 1μ followed by a vacuum metalizing to obtain a bi-axially oriented metalized polymer film, shredding the bi-axially oriented metalized polymer film to form the particles to at least 1×1 mm, selecting a solvent as system or a dispersion medium of paint in which the particles of the polymer film is not substantially soluble, preparing a paint or a coating composition by using selected solvent, and dispersing the shredded particles of oriented metalized polymer film in the paint as a primer, under coat, or top coat.
A corrosion-resistant coating composition comprising at least 0.1 % of the particles of bi-axially oriented metalized polymer film along with paint and other additives; the film should not be soluble in the solvent or dispersion medium of the paint. A substrate coated with the corrosion-resistant composition according to the invention, said substrate has improved corrosion resistance of at least 500 hours by salt spray test (ASTMB 117). A process for manufacturing the corrosion-resistant coating composition of the invention is also disclosed herein.
New aspects in the synthesis of mono- and dialkylfurans
3-substituted furan systems can be obtained by alkylation of 3-lithium furans with various electrophiles in the presence of hexamethylphosphoric acid triamide in good yields. The 2- or 5-position of 3-methyl furan is blocked with high regioselectivity by silylation. After metalation and alkylation of the remaining free α-position and subsequent desilylation the 2,3- and 2,4-disubstituted furans are
