Cover Story: Two-dimensional materials with ultrathin structures are characterized by water impermeability, a high specific surface area, and excellent mechanical properties, qualities that prove promising for their wide application. The layered ultrathin structure of pigments from a group of transition metal dichalcogenides (MoS2 and WS2), layered with transition metal oxides (MoO3 and WO3) and other semiconductor materials (ZnS and ZnO), was used to provide an enhanced mechanical and anticorrosion performance of pigmented systems containing spherical zinc. The results of our experiments showed an increase in both mechanical and anticorrosion performance when using these special types of inorganic pigments and an enhancement in the individual types of action mechanisms typical and proven for zinc-pigmented systems.
