Appearance Technology for Coatings

Appearance Technology for Coatings
Available for download

The appearance a coating provides can sometimes be just as important as is protective properties. Ever-growing budget concerns have increased the demand for coatings that provide a longer lasting aesthetic finish. This paper will explain the basic terminology, testing procedures, analytical instruments and specification development for coating color, gloss, reflectivity and other appearance parameters. The appearance characteristics of various coatings will also be discussed.

An Overview and Comparison of Surface Cleanliness Standards for the Protective Coatings Industry

Product Number: 41216-965-SG
Author: Nico Frankhuizen
Publication Date: 2016
$20.00

At present multiple standards on blast-cleaned surfaces are in use depending on region and specifications of the project. However, most standards are relatively clear on the description of a surface some overlap each other. These overlaps are often considerate as the norm for the most comparisons between ISO and related documents, however, sometimes are significantly off. Some of these documents will be highlighted to compare the results and their impact on the coating job.

The coatings industry is very familiar with shot/grit blasting as a mechanical means of surface preparation. Over the years, operators have worked with manual and automatic blast equipment with its associated dust collection arrangements. The industry is highly competitive, and control on operating costs is critical. Therefore, coaters are always on the lookout for ways to tune their process by lowering costs and increasing productivity.
