Micaceous iron oxides (MiOs) are functional fillers used in anti-corrosive and industrial coatings. They act both as a passive barrier and UV-absorbing pigment and have an important effect on a coating's performance. Therefore, viable test methods for materials containing MIO play a crucial part in their monitoring. This article illustrates these test methods, the test results and the resulting conclusions for coatings formulators.
