Abstract: Waterborne anticorrosive coatings are one of the developing directions of anticorrosive coatings in the future. In this paper, the research status and application of four waterborne anticorrosive coatings including acrylic system, epoxy system, inorganic zinc silicate system and polyurethane system are introduced. Besides, three types of graphene-modified waterborne anticorrosive coatings are emphatically introduced according to the structural properties and application advantages in coatings of graphene. Finally, the problems of waterborne anticorrosive coatings are analyzed, and the future development trend and prospect forecasted.
