The Truth About TG - The Measurement and Significance of the Glass Transition Temperature

The glass transition temperature (Tg) is an important property, as it is a reflection of both the type of resins in a coating and its degree of cure. This paper discusses what Tg is, the measurement of Tg, and its relationship to coating performance. Data is presented which indicates that the performance of a coating may depend on the conditions under which it is cured, such that the exact same coating may perform differently depending on the region of the country in which it is used and the time of year in which it is applied.
