ABSTRACT
Investigations on the adhesion of a two-component-epoxy on a zinc surface (usual hot-dipped galvanised) are described. The pretreatment of the zinc surface was varied, to determine its influence on adhesion. Similarly, the measurement of adhesion was carried out with wet and dry coatings to assess the influence of water content in the paint film on this property.
The results of different kinds of adhesion tests were compared to find the correlation between these methods.
