Formulating High Performance Coatings with Novel Adhesion Test Methods

Formulating High Performance Coatings with Novel Adhesion Test Methods
Available for download

Adhesion performance is required for every coating system. The adhesion between coatings and substrates is one of the most critical determining factors in the overall success of any coating material. Material design and formulation are key components of high-performance coatings and rely heavily on the accurate measurement and evaluation of adhesion in the coating systems.

Adhesion performance is required for every coating system. The adhesion between coatings and substrates is one of the most critical determining factors in the overall success of any coating material. Material design and formulation are key components of high-performance coatings and rely heavily on the accurate measurement and evaluation of adhesion in the coating systems. In the course of our technology advancement, new adhesion test methods have been developed to enhance the formulations of water-based coatings and paints. With these new test methods, we can now understand the adhesion of coatings system from several aspects such as elastic modulus (Young’s Modulus) of a coating film on a substrate, wetting, adhesion energy, and so on. The new methods displayed higher resolution and precision for the evaluation of adhesion in some model water-based coating systems, compared to ASTM methods (D4541, D3359). As a result, we now have the ability to accelerate the process of formulating coatings / paints with higher performance.

Pull-Off Adhesion Testing of Coatings - Improve Your Technique

Pull-off adhesion testing is widely used to assess the protective coating process. It is also used to determine if a coating is fit for service in new construction and for repairs to existing structures. The result is often critical to the acceptance or rejection of a coating process, as the adhesion value quoted by the paint manufacturer can be adversely affected by aspects of the coating process. Low adhesion values are indicative of premature failure of the coating and are often due to inadequate surface preparation of the substrate.

A long-term project such as the current Brooklyn Bridge Rehabilitation Program, known as Brooklyn Bridge Contract 6, presents a great opportunity to collect vast amounts of data and records relating to the total coating replacement on a historic landmark. On any project, especially one of this scope, the project team has to deal with many obstacles, both expected and unexpected, and significant unknowns.

Replica Tape- Relating 3 Surface Profile Parameters to Pull-Off Adhesion

Product Number: 41215-878-SG

Steel surfaces are frequently cleaned by abrasive impact prior to the application of protective coatings. The resultant surface profile must be accurately assessed to ensure compliance with job or contract specifications. But is profile height alone (the most commonly measured parameter) a good indicator of long-term coating performance?
