Corrosion Protection of Steel Structures by Protective Paint Systems - Assessment of, and Acceptance Criteria for, the Adhesion/Cohesion (Fracture Strength) of a Coating - Part 1: Pull-off Testing
Also Known As:
The DIN EN ISO 16276-1 standard provides guidelines for evaluating the adhesion/cohesion (fracture strength) of protective paint systems on steel structures. The standard focuses on pull-off testing, a method used to measure the force required to detach a coating from the substrate.
The standard serves to complement the DIN EN ISO 12944 series by providing specific assessment and acceptance criteria for coating adhesion. It offers detailed procedures for conducting pull-off tests, including preparation of the test area, selection of appropriate equipment, and execution of the test itself.
By adhering to this standard, manufacturers and coating inspectors can ensure the reliability and quality of protective paint systems on steel structures. The assessment of adhesion/cohesion is critical in determining the suitability of a coating for corrosion protection and in identifying potential areas of concern. Compliance with this standard helps ensure that coatings meet the necessary standards and can withstand the demands of various environments.
