Paints and varnishes - Adhesion of coatings (ISO/TR 19402:2018)

This document summarises the common methods for evaluating the adhesive strength of coatings on a substrate, which can be another coating beneath or the substrate itself. The test methods and evaluation methods are described in Clauses 4, 5, and 6. In the case of standardized test methods the respective standard is referenced in regard to procedure and evaluation. Annex A compares the methods in the synoptic Tables A.1, A.2, and A.3.
Often the adhesive strength cannot be sufficiently evaluated by means of a single method.
The purely physical methods for measuring the adhesive strength are such in which mechanical quantities (e.g. force or torsion moment) are measured directly.
All other methods are based on the evaluation of behaviour under mechanic stress according to practical conditions. For these methods the viscoelastic properties have a wide influence on the evaluation of the adhesive strength, so that it can only be tested comparatively within one method.
Each method has its specific application. An unsuitable method can lead to false information. All of the test methods for the evaluation of the adhesive strength require a certain routine of the test person, especially in regard to identifying the separation line. For most of the test methods the test results, among other things, depend on the film thickness of the coating to be tested. In addition, for several methods differences between tests on a test sheet and in practice can occur, due to different roughness of the substrate.
Effects of delamination caused by weathering or corrosion influences are not subject of this document.
In case cohesion failures predominantly occur during an adhesive strength test, this is no measure for the adhesive strength. However, information can be given on the protective effect of the coating against corrosion.

Beschichtungsstoffe - Haftfestigkeit von Beschichtungen (ISO/TR 19402:2018)

Dieses Dokument fasst die gebräuchlichen Verfahren zum Beurteilen der Haftfestigkeit von Beschichtungen auf einem Untergrund, wobei dieser eine darunterliegende Beschichtung oder das Substrat sein kann, zusammen. Die Prüf- und Auswerteverfahren werden im Abschnitt 4, Abschnitt 5 und Abschnitt 6 beschrieben. Im Fall von genormten Prüfverfahren wird für die Durchführung und Auswertung auf die entsprechenden Normen verwiesen. Im Anhang A werden die Verfahren in Übersichtstabelle A.1, Übersichtstabelle A.2 und Übersichtstabelle A.3 vergleichend gegenübergestellt.
Die Haftfestigkeit lässt sich meistens nicht ausreichend mit nur einem Verfahren beurteilen.
Die rein physikalischen Verfahren zum Messen der Haftfestigkeit sind solche, bei denen direkt mechanische Größen (z. B. Kraft oder Drehmoment) gemessen werden.
Alle übrigen Verfahren beruhen auf der Beurteilung des Verhaltens bei mechanischer Beanspruchung in Anlehnung an praktische Bedingungen. Bei diesen Verfahren haben die viskoelastischen Eigenschaften einen großen Einfluss auf die Beurteilung der Haftfestigkeit, so dass nur vergleichend innerhalb eines Verfahrens geprüft werden kann.
Jedes Verfahren hat seine spezifische Anwendung. Ein ungeeignetes Verfahren kann zu einer falschen Aussage führen. Alle Prüfverfahren zum Beurteilen der Haftfestigkeit erfordern eine gewisse Übung des Prüfers, insbesondere beim Erkennen der Trennebene. Bei den meisten Prüfverfahren sind die Prüf-ergebnisse u. a. von der Schichtdicke der zu untersuchenden Beschichtung abhängig. Außerdem können bei einigen Verfahren auf Grund der unterschiedlichen Rauheit des Untergrundes Unterschiede zwischen Prüfungen auf einem Probenblech und der Praxis auftreten.
Enthaftungseffekte, die durch Bewitterungs- und Korrosionseinflüsse hervorgerufen werden, sind nicht Gegenstand dieses Dokumentes.
Wenn bei einer Haftfestigkeitsprüfung vorwiegend Kohäsionsbrüche auftreten, ist dies kein Maß für die Haftfestigkeit, es kann jedoch eine Aussage über die Schutzwirkung der Beschichtung gegen Korrosion getroffen werden.

Paints and varnishes — Adhesion of coatings
1 Scope
This document summarises the common methods for evaluating the adhesive strength of coatings on a
substrate, which can be another coating beneath or the substrate itself. The test methods and evaluation
methods are described in Clauses 4, 5, and 6. In the case of standardized test methods the respective
standard is referenced in regard to procedure and evaluation. Annex A compares the methods in the
synoptic Tables A.1, A.2, and A.3.
Often the adhesive strength cannot be sufficiently evaluated by means of a single method.
The purely physical methods for measuring the adhesive strength are such in which mechanical
quantities (e.g. force or torsion moment) are measured directly.
All other methods are based on the evaluation of behaviour under mechanic stress according to practical
conditions. For these methods the viscoelastic properties have a wide influence on the evaluation of the
adhesive strength, so that it can only be tested comparatively within one method.
Each method has its specific application. An unsuitable method can lead to false information. All of the
test methods for the evaluation of the adhesive strength require a certain routine of the test person,
especially in regard to identifying the separation line. For most of the test methods the test results,
among other things, depend on the film thickness of the coating to be tested. In addition, for several
methods differences between tests on a test sheet and in practice can occur, due to different roughness
of the substrate.
Effects of delamination caused by weathering or corrosion influences are not subject of this document.
In case cohesion failures predominantly occur during an adhesive strength test, this is no measure for
the adhesive strength. However, information can be given on the protective effect of the coating against
corrosion.

4 Adhesive strength tests without scratch/cut
4.1 Tests with mechanical stress application on the coating
4.1.1 Pull-off test
— Principle
A uniformly increasing tensile force is applied to a test cylinder (metal cylinder of diameter
20 mm), which is adhered to the coating, until the test cylinder is pulled off. The pull-off strength
is determined by calculating the tensile force to pull off the test cylinder and the area of the test
cylinder.
The principle of the pull-off test is illustrated schematically in Figure 1.

Figure 1 — Principle of the pull-off test
— Application
The pull-off test is generally applicable.
— Procedure
— Attach the test cylinder to the coating by means of a previously tested adhesive.
— Cut the coating around the circumference of the test cylinder using a suitable tool through to
the substrate (see Figure 1).
— Attach the test specimen to the test apparatus so that it is supported and the test cylinder is
connected to the pulling unit, centred and without being wedged.
— Carry out the pull-off process with a uniformly increasing tensile force and measure when the
test cylinder is pulled off.
— Evaluation
The test result is the pull-off strength (MPa) = the tensile force when pulling off the test cylinder
divided by the area of the test cylinder.
Specify the result of the failure pattern analysis (see the procedure specified in 6.2.1).
— Precision
Precision data are not available at present.
— Reference
The pull-off test is specified in ISO 4624 and ISO 16276-1.

4.1.2 Twist-off test
— Principle
By means of a motor-driven test apparatus a uniformly increasing torsion moment is introduced to
a test cylinder (a metal cylinder of a 12 mm or 15 mm diameter and a 6 mm drill), which is adhered
to the coating, until it is twisted off. The adhesive strength (“shear strength”) can be read directly
2
from the test apparatus as shear stress (N/mm = MPa).
Figure 2 illustrates the principle of the twist-off test in a schematic diagram. Figure 3 shows the
minimum distance between the test cylinders for repeated tests.

— Application
The twist-off test is generally applicable.
— Procedure
— Use a sufficiently thick substrate (minimum 0,7 mm) or a substrate with reinforcement adhered
to the backside in order to avoid deformation during testing.
— Adhere the test cylinder to the coating using a previously tested adhesive. For repeated tests
observe a minimum distance between the test cylinders (see Figure 3).

— Attach the test apparatus at the hexagon bolt of the test cylinder (see Figure 2) and secure the
test panel against twisting.
— Start torsional stress and read the shear stress from the apparatus when the test cylinder is
twisted off.
— Evaluation
2
The test result is the shear stress (N/mm = MPa), which is read from the apparatus and interpreted
as the twist-off strength.
Specify the result of the failure pattern analysis (see the procedure specified in 6.2.1).
— Precision
Precision data are not available at present.
— Reference
The twist-off test is specified in Reference [50].
4.1.3 Peel-off test 1
— Principle
A fabric specified by material, thread size, and mesh size is bedded into a newly applied coating
material. After curing of the coating a tensile tester grabs the overlapping fabric, and due to
continuous tensile force at 90° the coating is peeled off from the substrate. The peel strength is
determined as the force required for peeling off and referring to the width of the test specimen.
Figure 4 schematically shows the peel-off process and the function of a 90°-peel-off apparatus.

the narrow side. Subsequently bed the fabric so that it remains for about 50 mm uncoated and
overlaps at the uncoated end of the test panel (see Figure 5).

TECHNICAL REPORT ISO/TR 19402:2018(E)
Paints and varnishes — Adhesion of coatings
1 Scope
This document summarises the common methods for evaluating the adhesive strength of coatings on a
substrate, which can be another coating beneath or the substrate itself. The test methods and evaluation
methods are described in Clauses 4, 5, and 6. In the case of standardized test methods the respective
standard is referenced in regard to procedure and evaluation. Annex A compares the methods in the
synoptic Tables A.1, A.2, and A.3.
Often the adhesive strength cannot be sufficiently evaluated by means of a single method.
The purely physical methods for measuring the adhesive strength are such in which mechanical
quantities (e.g. force or torsion moment) are measured directly.
All other methods are based on the evaluation of behaviour under mechanic stress according to practical
conditions. For these methods the viscoelastic properties have a wide influence on the evaluation of the
adhesive strength, so that it can only be tested comparatively within one method.
Each method has its specific application. An unsuitable method can lead to false information. All of the
test methods for the evaluation of the adhesive strength require a certain routine of the test person,
especially in regard to identifying the separation line. For most of the test methods the test results,
among other things, depend on the film thickness of the coating to be tested. In addition, for several
methods differences between tests on a test sheet and in practice can occur, due to different roughness
of the substrate.
Effects of delamination caused by weathering or corrosion influences are not subject of this document.
In case cohesion failures predominantly occur during an adhesive strength test, this is no measure for
the adhesive strength. However, information can be given on the protective effect of the coating against
corrosion.

4 Adhesive strength tests without scratch/cut
4.1 Tests with mechanical stress application on the coating
4.1.1 Pull-off test
— Principle
A uniformly increasing tensile force is applied to a test cylinder (metal cylinder of diameter
20 mm), which is adhered to the coating, until the test cylinder is pulled off. The pull-off strength
is determined by calculating the tensile force to pull off the test cylinder and the area of the test
cylinder.
The principle of the pull-off test is illustrated schematically in Figure 1.

— Procedure
— Attach the test cylinder to the coating by means of a previously tested adhesive.
— Cut the coating around the circumference of the test cylinder using a suitable tool through to
the substrate (see Figure 1).
— Attach the test specimen to the test apparatus so that it is supported and the test cylinder is
connected to the pulling unit, centred and without being wedged.
— Carry out the pull-off process with a uniformly increasing tensile force and measure when the
test cylinder is pulled off.
— Evaluation
The test result is the pull-off strength (MPa) = the tensile force when pulling off the test cylinder
divided by the area of the test cylinder.
Specify the result of the failure pattern analysis (see the procedure specified in 6.2.1).
— Precision
Precision data are not available at present.

4.1.2 Twist-off test
— Principle
By means of a motor-driven test apparatus a uniformly increasing torsion moment is introduced to
a test cylinder (a metal cylinder of a 12 mm or 15 mm diameter and a 6 mm drill), which is adhered
to the coating, until it is twisted off. The adhesive strength (“shear strength”) can be read directly
2
from the test apparatus as shear stress (N/mm = MPa).
Figure 2 illustrates the principle of the twist-off test in a schematic diagram. Figure 3 shows the
minimum distance between the test cylinders for repeated tests.

— Procedure
— Use a sufficiently thick substrate (minimum 0,7 mm) or a substrate with reinforcement adhered
to the backside in order to avoid deformation during testing.
— Adhere the test cylinder to the coating using a previously tested adhesive. For repeated tests
observe a minimum distance between the test cylinders (see Figure 3).

— Attach the test apparatus at the hexagon bolt of the test cylinder (see Figure 2) and secure the
test panel against twisting.
— Start torsional stress and read the shear stress from the apparatus when the test cylinder is
twisted off.
— Evaluation
2
The test result is the shear stress (N/mm = MPa), which is read from the apparatus and interpreted
as the twist-off strength.
Specify the result of the failure pattern analysis (see the procedure specified in 6.2.1).
— Precision
Precision data are not available at present.
— Reference
The twist-off test is specified in Reference [50].
4.1.3 Peel-off test 1
— Principle
A fabric specified by material, thread size, and mesh size is bedded into a newly applied coating
material. After curing of the coating a tensile tester grabs the overlapping fabric, and due to
continuous tensile force at 90° the coating is peeled off from the substrate. The peel strength is
determined as the force required for peeling off and referring to the width of the test specimen.
Figure 4 schematically shows the peel-off process and the function of a 90°-peel-off apparatus.

the narrow side. Subsequently bed the fabric so that it remains for about 50 mm uncoated and
overlaps at the uncoated end of the test panel (see Figure 5).
