ASTM D3359-23 《Standard Test Methods for Rating Adhesion by Tape Test》 Related products

ASTM D3359-23 "Standard Test Method for Assessing Adhesion Force by Tape Testing" is designed to evaluate the adhesion between a coating film and a metal substrate. This method evaluates the relative ductility of a coating by applying and rapidly removing Pressure sensitive adhesive tape to determine whether its adhesion meets the requirements of a particular application. The test methods are divided into two types, A and B, and are suitable for different laboratory or field environments, but both are limited to evaluating lower adhesion levels. This standard emphasizes that operator training and practice during testing is critical to the conformity and accuracy of results. It should be noted that due to differences in coating composition and structure, the same tape may not be suitable for all coatings, and the test results do not provide specific force values required for bond fracture, only as an indicator of reaching or exceeding a certain minimum bond strength.
