Component Design of Environmentally Friendly High-Temperature Resistance Coating for Oriented Silicon Steel and Effects on Anti-Corrosion Property

Oriented silicon steel is vital for power transformer cores, while the high-temperature annealing process limits the industrialization of environmentally friendly coatings on the surface. In this paper, the high-temperature binders Al(H2PO4)3 solution and silica sol were introduced innovatively. They condensed into macromolecular polymer chains, network structures and SiO2 particles at high temperatures, providing high-temperature stability and adhesion. The influence of types of silica sol, additives and functional fillers on the corrosion resistance of the coating was studied. The prepared environmentally friendly inorganic insulating coating for oriented silicon steel has excellent corrosion resistance after curing at 475 °C and annealing at 800 °C, which was matched with the currently rolling process of oriented silicon steel. The salt-spray resistance can last for more than 24 h and up to 72 h.
