| ASTM D3359 | Tape Adhesion | Coatings | In tape adhesion testing, a given coating is tested for its adhesion properties. Once cured, the coating is scored, and tape is applied to the scored coating. The adhesion is then rated by examining how much of the scored coating is removed when the tape is removed. |
ASTM D4541 (Method B)
| Metal Adhesion | Coatings | In metal adhesion testing, a given coating is tested for its adhesion properties. Once the coating on a metal specimen has cured, a metal dolly is adhered to the coated specimen with epoxy. The adhesion is then rated by the amount of force required to remove the dolly from the specimen. Test is limited to adhesion strengths up to 2,000 psig. |
| ASTM D7234 | Concrete Adhesion | Coatings | In concrete adhesion testing, a given coating is tested for its adhesion properties. Once the coating on the concrete specimen has cured, a metal dolly is adhered to the coated specimen with epoxy. The adhesion is then rated by the amount of force required to remove the dolly from the specimen. Test is limited to adhesion strengths up to 500 psig. |
