How to use a salt spray tester to test the quality of automotive coatings?


By means of continuously accelerated research methods, the salt spray tester can obtain the salt spray test resistance of electrophoretic coatings with different film thicknesses, different parts, and different economic structures, in order to identify and analyze that these parts of us are more prone to cause corrosion during the painting process and to take the corresponding protective technical measures.

automotive coatings

When people buy a car, they are often concerned about how good it looks and the quality of the surface coating is a visual assessment of the quality of the car. With the deterioration of the global environment, people are demanding good corrosion resistance from automotive coatings. How improve the corrosion resistance of a car is one of the key issues that many car manufacturers have to face, and a salt spray tester can solve this problem.


As one of the four major processes in automotive manufacturing, paint is used primarily for corrosion protection and decoration. It is an important rust protection project for automobiles. The coating provides complete protection for the body by applying high corrosion protection coatings to improve electrophoretic penetration, increasing the film thickness of each coat, applying sealants to the welds, and spraying corrosion protection wax. However, defects or deficiencies in body construction, design, and manufacture can still result in some parts of the body being more susceptible to corrosion than others. Therefore, these areas of corrosion should be identified and analyzed during the painting process, and protection measures are taken accordingly. It is important to use these corrosion delamination issues in the design phase, i.e. in new hairstyles.

Tinuvin 1130: An Excellent UV Absorber

 In the field of the chemical industry, UV absorbers play a crucial role, particularly in protecting materials from UV damage. Today, we will delve into a highly regarded UV absorber—Tinuvin 1130. Tinuvin 1130 : chemical name: 3-(3-(2H-benzotriazole-2-yl)-4-hydroxy-5-tert-butyl phenyl)propionic acid polyethylene glycol 300 ester; CAS login number: 104810-48-2. This product is an exceptional UV absorber that offers numerous benefits due to its unique properties. One of the standout features of Tinuvin 1130 is its excellent weather resistance. It has a strong ability to absorb ultraviolet rays, particularly those with wavelengths ranging from 290-400nm. This effectively prevents coatings, plastics, rubber, and other materials from being damaged by UV rays, thereby maintaining the performance and appearance stability of these materials and extending their service life. In addition, Tinuvin 1130 exhibits good compatibility. It is easy to emulsify in water-based systems and can be...

Air-cooled Xenon Lamp Aging Tester

  The air-cooled xenon lamp aging tester is a device that uses an air-cooled system to dissipate heat and a xenon lamp to simulate ultraviolet light, visible light and infrared light in natural sunlight to perform accelerated aging tests on materials. It is commonly used in industries such as automobiles, coatings, plastics, rubber, and textiles. It can evaluate the aging resistance of materials under the combined effects of long-term light, temperature, humidity and other environmental factors in a relatively short period of time, helping companies improve product quality, extend service life, and optimize product anti-aging formulas and processes. Structural composition:  The main body is a test chamber, equipped with a xenon lamp and a matching optical filter system to simulate sunlight of different wavelengths, as well as temperature, humidity, lighting time and other control and adjustment devices, as well as an observation window and a sample rack. Working principle: The...

The Structure of Hexapod Tumble Tester

The Hexapod Tumbler Tester is a popular apparatus used in the evaluation of the appearance retention of carpets. Drum – constructed of Nylon or other like material and capped by a lid that is secured by a latching device. The drum and lid have a locating groove to hold the specimen backing sheet flat to the inner wall of the drum. A photograph of a typical drum is show in Photograph 1 and Photograph 2. The drum dimensions are:   Internal Diameter: 12 ± 0.18 in. (302 ± 5mm) Wall Thickness :0.3 in. approx. (8 mm approx.) Internal Depth: 8.2 ± 0.2 in. (207 ± 5 mm)  Driving System - cradles the drum on rollers and keeps the axis of the drum level, and rotates the drum at 35 ± 2 rpm (3.6 ± 0.2 rad/s). The driving direction reverses after approximately 500 revolutions.  After the 500 rotations the unit will stop and stand stationary for approximately 5 to 15 seconds, then begin rotating in the opposite direction. After 2000 rotations the unit will stop and w...
