EVALUATION OF AQUEOUS DISPERSIONS OF TFE-FLUORO-CARBON RESINS (TEFLON) APPLIED AS THIN FILMS TO METAL SUBSTRATES

Abstract

TFE-resin Teflon coating systems were prepared on steel and Al specimens from proprietary TFEresin primer and enamel coating material. The results show the primers provide good adhesion and equal corrosion protection. Corrosion protection is dependent on the total film thickness; the black and white enamels provide superior corrosion protection; the gray enamel provides inferior protection. The rate of heating to TFEresin sintering temperatures of two Al alloys with increasing cross sectional thickness was investigated to determine the time required to sinter TFE-resin coatings on various size pieces.
