Tests for compliance with GOST 9.401

The standard GOST 9.401 is the basic document for predicting service life of the coatings and for correct selection of the systems of coatings depending on different operational conditions.

Nowadays, when the coatings with a high service life of 15 years and more are required, the accelerated weathering tests become crucial. Having completed 15 days testing we can predict a performance of the coating after maintenance for 2 years in temperate and cold climate. Having increased a testing period up to 135 days and more we can predict a higher service life of the coatings.
