Qualification tests according Coating system 7 will include:

Pull-off adhesion
ISO 4624
Seawater Immersion
ISO 20340
Chatodic Disbonding
ISO 20340
Over paint
ISO 20340
Substrate:
Steel plates, pre- treated according ISO 20340
Dimension: 150 x 75 x 5 mm
3. Paint Application
The coating was applied by Jotun Coatings under witness of Norner Innovation.
Dry Film Thickness was measured on each panel according ISO 19840
4. Testing
4.1 Cathodic Disbonding
CD test has been performed according ISO 15711, method A with impressed current. The
test solution was artificial sea water in accordance with requirements given in ISO 15711.
An artificial holyday with diameter 6 mm was mechanically applied each sample.
3 parallels from each system were tested.
The samples were evaluated after exposure due to degree of disbonding from artificial
holyday in accordance with ISO 15711 and Blistering according ISO 4628-2.
4.2 Seawater Immersion
Scribe line, 2 x 50 mm, was made mechanically on each sample.
The samples were immersed at 40C in artificial seawater in accordance with requirements
given in ISO 15711.
Exposure time 4200 hours.
3 parallels from each system were tested.
The samples were evaluated after exposure with respect to:
Pull-off

4.4 Adhesion Testing
The adhesion has been tested before and after cyclic ageing and seawater immersion. The
test was performed according ISO 4624.
Three pull-of tests have been performed on each sample. The average value has been
reported.
