TM MINIMUM FILM FORMING TEMPERATURE BAR PAINTS & COATINGS TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT SURFACE QUALITY

MFFT paints & coatings | | | | The minimum film-forming temprature (MFFT) of a paint or coating is the lowest temprature at which it will uniformly coalesce when laid on a substrate as a thin film. The standard test for determining this temperature involves using a MFFT-BAR, as specified by such standards as ASTM D 2354 and ISO 2115. The design of the Rhopoint instrument is based directly on these standards. running I I I I The desired temperature program is selected and the instrument allowed to reach thermal equilibrium. Tracks of wet test material are applied using a cube applicator, or spreader....
