Coating bend test

A coating bond test or adhesive test is performed to measure the required tensile force to break the coating (quantitative test) or bend test is performed to see if the coating is peeling or flaking off from the subsurface ( qualitative test). LMATS hold proven procedures and NATA accreditation in coating bond / adhesion test.

The test is performed in accordance with AS 1580.402.1, DNV, Offshore specifications, EXXON Mobil, ESSO Shell specification, aerospace specifications and other similar standards.
