Improved selection of testing protocols for corrosion coatings, along with proper interpretation of the results, allows for a better representation of how coatings will perform in service. A review of several types of corrosive service environments is presented, including the testing normally performed, along with a more in depth look at how to quantify performance variables in a rating system based on individual test results.
