    ASTM D3359 Standard Test Methods For Measuring Adhesion by Tape Test

    Uploaded by

    EdgarDavidDiazCampos
    The test methods involve applying tape over cuts made in the coating film and removing it to assess whether the coating remains adhered to the substrate. While quick and useful for job sites or distinguishing inadequate adhesion, the test is limited to lower adhesion levels and may not distinguish higher levels requiring more sophisticated methods. Adhesion can be affected by the substrate and its preparation. The test is intended to establish generally adequate adhesion rather than compare specific adhesion levels.

    ASTM D3359

    Standard Test Methods for Measuring Adhesion by Tape Test.

    Significance and Use

    If a coating is to fulfil its function of protecting or decorating a substrate, it must adhere to it


    for the expected service life. Because the substrate and its surface preparation (or lack of it)
    have a drastic effect on the adhesion of coatings, a method to evaluate adhesion of a coating
    to different substrates or surface treatments, or of different coatings to the same substrate and
    treatment, is of considerable usefulness in the industry.

    The limitations of all adhesion methods and the specific limitation of this test method to
    lower levels of adhesion (see 1.3) should be recognized before using it. The intra- and inter-
    laboratory precision of this test method is similar to other widely-accepted tests for coated
    substrates (for example, Test Method D2370 and Test Method D4060), but this is partly the
    result of it being insensitive to all but large differences in adhesion. The limited scale of 0 to
    5 was selected deliberately to avoid a false impression of being sensitive.

    1. Scope

    1.1 These test methods cover procedures for assessing the adhesion of coating films to
    metallic substrates by applying and removing pressure-sensitive tape over cuts made in the
    film.

    Note 1—This test method has been reported being used to measure adhesion of organic
    coatings on soft substrates (for example, wood and plastic). Issues with plastic substrates are
    noted in Appendix X1. A similar test method, ISO 2409, permits tests on soft substrates (for
    example, wood and plaster). Precision and bias data on the latter is lacking. Test Methods
    D3359 was developed with metal as the substrate and, in the absence of supporting precision
    and bias data, is so limited.

    1.2 Test Method A is primarily intended for use at job sites while Test Method B is more
    suitable for use in the laboratory. Also, Test Method B is not considered suitable for films
    thicker than 5 mils (125µm).

    Note 2—Subject to agreement between the purchaser and the seller, Test Method B can be
    used for thicker films if wider spaced cuts are employed.

    1.3 These test methods are used to establish whether the adhesion of a coating to a substrate
    is at a generally adequate level. They do not distinguish between higher levels of adhesion for
    which more sophisticated methods of measurement are required.

    Note 3—It should be recognized that differences in adherence of the coating surface can
    affect the results obtained with coatings having the same inherent adhesion.

    1.4 This test method is similar in content (but not technically equivalent) to ISO 2409.
    1.5 In multicoat systems adhesion failure may occur between coats so that the adhesion of the
    coating system to the substrate is not determined.

    1.6 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in
    parentheses are for information only.

    1.7 This standard does not purport to address the safety concerns, if any, associated with its
    use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and
    health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
