Montmorillonite Nanosheets as an Accelerator for Low-TemperatureZinc Phosphate Coatings with Improved Corrosion Resistance

Abstract Traditional zinc phosphating requires high temperatures and toxic nitrite accelerators. In this study, montmorillonite (MMT) nanosheets, a low-cost two-dimensional layered silicate, are introduced as a green nucleating agent to accelerate low-temperature (40 ± 2 °C) phos...
