Aesthetic Issues With Spray-Applied Fluoropolymer Coating System

Product Number: 51322-17971-SG
Author: Kimberly Steiner
Publication Date: 2022

A building, partially clad in fluoropolymer coated aluminum panels, was observed to have an aesthetically unacceptable appearance while still under construction. Once installed on the building, many of the panels exhibited a vertical streaked appearance under certain conditions. When the panels were at ground level, or when the sun was bright, the streaky appearance was not noticeable. However, in conditions of low light, such as during early morning, dusk, or on cloudy days the streaky appearance was reported to become apparent. A visual mock-up, consisting of multiple coated panels that had been approved by the architect as a guide to the anticipated appearance were also present on-site as a reference. This visual mock-up was used as a reference for acceptable appearance of the coated panels.

Optimized Hardness Measurements for Micrometric Coatings in Disc Brake Components

The manuscript describes an optimized analytical protocol for the measurement of hardness and Young’s modulus in micrometric Sol-Gel coatings for brake components. In particular, two different hybrid organic-inorganic coatings with different functional properties are presented as example. The work pays particular attention in developing and optimizing reliable hardness measurements procedures by coupling Focus Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscopy (FIB-SEM) and Nano-Indentation (NI) probes. In particular, FIB-SEM is used to directly assess the actual coating thickness, avoiding any eventual damaging and artifact in thin layers possibly due to classical metallographic sample preparation. Once the thickness of the investigated coating is determined, then it is used as input parameter to calculate proper indentation penetration depth and load for NI measurements, thus avoiding any influence of the substrate in the obtained results. Finally, it is demonstrated that the proposed analytical protocol provides stable, reproducible and reliable hardness measurements in thin Sol-Gel coatings.

An increase in useful life expectancies for structures requires the stringent process control of applied protective coatings. Evaluating the uniformity of the protective coating thickness is a critical quality component. Solutions for meeting industries’ ultimate goals of reducing costs, lessoning errors, and increasing quality will be discussed in the following coating thickness measurement overview.
