Objective
Search and selection of coatings that resist to abrasion and resist high temperatures, selection of the application method and performance of resistance tests.
ATRIA Solution
5 coatings were chosen, which were subjected to different resistance tests to test the durability of the coating. To check the durability of the coating, the contact angle of a selected liquid and the surface area were measured before and after.
