Abstract
The wet and dry adhesion, resistance to corrosion and resistance to cathodic delamination of alkyd coated steel pre-treated with a variety of surface/primer treatments were assessed using a variety of techniques. It was found that while some treatments substantially enhanced adhesion, and others substantially improved resistance to corrosion and/or cathodic delamination, the phenomena could not be related. It was possible to enhance measurable wet and dry coating adhesion while decreasing substantially the resistance to corrosion. The reverse was also observed, with some corrosion and delamination restricting treatments substantially reducing the measurable mechanical adhesion strength of the coating. © 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.
