Variables That Can Affect Pull Off Adhesion of Coatings

Adhesion is a physical property that is crucial in many coatings, sealants, and adhesive applications, be it automotive, marine, or aerospace for example. Pull-off adhesion testing is an important tool in evaluating a coating’s performance, particularly while comparing pre- and post-exposure results. No matter what the application, the method for testing adhesion along with selecting the appropriate testing criteria has been the subject of multiple studies and reviews in the historical literature.

Pull-off adhesion testing is used to gage adhesive strength of the coating once applied and cured as per manufacturer’s guidelines. This test method is commonly used on the coatings after accelerated exposure testing and in the field. The mode of failure and the pull-off pressure obtained can be crucial in confirming proper surface preparation and coating application as well as understanding the performance of a coating. Additionally, evaluating pull-off adhesion before and after different lengths of exposure can go a long way in estimating adhesion retention and can be a crucial factor in product development. One challenge to this test method is the potential variability in results which can come from multiple factors. This paper will attempt at evaluating the extent of variability introduced into this test from different factors.
