Abstract:

According to the standard, after the anti-corrosion coating is immersed for a certain period of time, if there is no foaming, cracking, falling off, etc., the evaluation result is qualified. However, the adhesion and the corrosion resistance of some of the qualified coatings are greatly reduced. In this paper, eight kinds of anti-corrosion coatings qualified after soaking were selected, and the dry adhesion and wet adhesion after soaking in acidic environment were tested. The test results showed that the adhesion of some coatings after immersion was greatly reduced or lost, the metal matrix has obvious corrosion characteristics; the adhesion of some coatings was reduced; the adhesion of the two kinds of anti-corrosion coatings cured at room temperature was slightly increased. It can be seen that by comparing the dry/wet adhesion of the coating or tracking the change of adhesion during the coating service, the maintenance performance and development trend of the coating performance can be quantitatively grasped.

Key words: anti-corrosion coatings, wet adhesion, rapid test
