Investigation of Composite Coating Systems for Rain-Erosion Protection

Abstract

A study was made of single-layer and two layer composite coatings of polyurethane. It was found that the rain erosion resistance of both these coating types is strongly reduced by outdoor weathering in Florida for ten weeks. A multilayer composite coating has rain-erosion resistance equal or superior to that of a two-layer composite coating.
