Applied cathodic protection potentials may causeloosening of the coating, beginning at holiday edges. Sponta-neous holidays may also be caused by such po
16、tentials. This testmethod provides accelerated conditions for cathodic disbond-ment to occur and provides a measure of resistance of coatingsto this type of action.4.2 The effects of the test are to be evaluated by physicalexaminations and monitoring the current drawn by the testspecimen. Usually th
17、ere is no correlation between the twomethods of evaluation, but both methods are significant.Physical examination consists of assessing the effective contactof the coating with the metal surface in terms of observeddifferences in the relative adhesive bond. It is usually foundthat the cathodically d
18、isbonded area propagates from an areawhere adhesion is zero to an area where adhesion reaches theoriginal level.An intermediate zone of decreased adhesion mayalso be present.4.3 Assumptions associated with test results include:4.3.1 Maximum adhesion, or bond, is found in the coatingthat was not imme
19、rsed in the test liquid, and4.3.2 Decreased adhesion in the immersed test area is theresult of cathodic disbondment.4.4 Ability to resist disbondment is a desired quality on acomparative basis, but disbondment in this test method is notnecessarily an adverse indication of coating performance. Thevir
20、tue of this test method is that all dielectric-type coatings nowin common use will disbond to some degree, thus providing ameans of comparing one coating to another.4.5 The current density appearing in this test method ismuch greater than that usually required for cathodic protectionin natural envir
