9、table Pull-Off Adhesion Tes-ters3.Summary of Test Method3.1 Adhesion is determined by scribing an“X”into thecoating film to the substrate and by lifting the coating with thepoint of a utility knife.Adhesion is evaluated qualitatively ona 0 to 10 scale.4.Significance and Use4.1 Coatings,to perform sa
10、tisfactorily,must adhere to thesubstrates on which they are applied.This test method has beenfound useful as a simple means of assessing the adhesion ofcoatings.Although this method is a qualitative(subjective)testit has been used in industry for many years and can providevaluable information.4.2 Ot
