Formulating High Performance Coatings with Novel Adhesion Test Methods

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.
