Layered pigments used in coatings are becoming very attractive due to the improvement of the coatings barrier properties. The current study revealed superior corrosion protection of ATP-6-AHA coating on carbon steel with a polarization resistance of 1.3 108 Ohm·cm2 after three weeks immersed in a 3.5 wt% NaCl solution, using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The adhesion and surface roughness of coated samples were evaluated using pull of test and laser scanning microscopy. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were employed to assess the corrosion protection of ATP-6-AHA alkyd coating. Results revealed a protective film on steel surface comprising iron phosphate.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.porgcoat.2021.106500} (DOI).
