Adhesion Properties of Sprayed Coatings on Substrate Blasted by Multiangle Blasting Available to Purchase

Adhesion properties on the substrate blasted by multi-angle blasting with white alumina grit were examined. The low carbon steel substrates were blasted at two blasting angles (high and low angles) in a multi-angle blasting process. The sprayed coating of zinc alloy was evaluated by an adhesion test. The surface roughness levels after the multi-angle blasting were lower than those in the case of normal blasting. The multi-angle blasting was an effective blasting process to obtain improved adhesive properties. The low blasting angle may have contributed for removing contamination from the substrate surface. The high blasting angle may have contributed for an effective surface roughness to enhance the adhesive properties.
