The effect of the plasticizer (butyl benzyl phthalate, BBP) addition on the corrosion resistance properties of paint films has been investigated by means of different electrochemical techniques (EIS and ac/dc/ac) and accelerated tests (salt fog spray). Primers based on epoxy resin were prepared with different plasticizer content (0, 1.5, 3, 5, 11, 16 and 25 % in weight ratio to epoxy resin). An optimum quantity of plasticizer content (1.5–3 % ) was determined that gave the maximum anticorrosive performance of the epoxy primer. Results offered by each one of the techniques were quite similar and the ac/dc/ac one offered the results in a very short time (24h).
