In order to clarify the effect of W on suppression of paint blistering and its mechanism, analysis of rust formed on W bearing steel by corrosion test, and verification experiments such as an artificial synthesis Fe3O4, measurement of membrane potential of rust films and electrochemical measurement were conducted. As a result, W refines Fe3O4 particles which are main components of rust under paint film, and gives rust cation selective permeability. Both effects prevent corrosion factors from reaching the surface of substrate. In addition, W forms insoluble oxides and prevents Fe dissolution by inhibitory effect. These effects suppress Fe corrosion and the formation of rust, thereby suppressing paint film blistering.
