The coatings industry has made widespread use of a variety of accelerated test methods to quickly and effectively evaluate coating performance. Such accelerated methods are advantageous for predicting coating system performance where real-time testing is impractical. For example, it is not practical to evaluate coatings in harsh environments where coatings are expected to last for decades when the pace of innovation and new coating development is faster than the test time would need to be. Therefore a variety of test methods exist to evaluate coatings on metal substrates, such as steel or aluminum. Coatings that will be subjected to corrosive environments require testing in environments to simulate the effects of corrosion, typically involving exposure to moderate salt concentration and elevated temperatures for a specified amount of time. Such tests, testing environments, and evaluation methods include ASTM B117,ISO 9227, and ISO 12944, to name a few.

Use of accelerated weathering testing to reduce risk for new topcoat standards and specifications

Product Number: 51218-168-SG

Author: Kurt Wood

Publication Date: 2018

Numerous industry studies have shown a lack of correlation between outdoor weathering performance in Florida, and performance in common accelerated weathering tests-- particularly when multiple types of resins are being compared. No single accelerated weathering test exists that can predict the outdoor performance for every type of resin in every color.
