The influence of wet curing on the performance of resin coatings

Hits: 121 img

Hardness and Wear Resistance: The wet curing process is relatively slow, and as it absorbs moisture from the air, cross-linking reactions gradually occur, resulting in an increase in coating hardness. However, the final hardness and wear resistance achieved by it are usually slightly lower than those of heat cured and light cured coatings of the same resin type, making it more suitable for applications that do not require extremely high hardness but have requirements for construction convenience, such as building exterior wall coatings.
Chemical resistance: Coatings formed by wet curing have certain resistance to chemicals due to their cross-linking structure characteristics. However, compared to thermosetting coatings, their ability to resist strong acid and alkali chemical corrosion may be slightly weaker, but they are sufficient to cope with the chemical effects of ordinary atmospheric environments, rainwater, etc. They are commonly used in fields such as construction and automotive repair, and can meet the chemical protection needs in daily use.
Adhesion: Wet cured coatings often have good adhesion to substrates because they continuously come into contact and react with the substrate surface during the curing process, and can adapt to substrates of various materials. For example, coating wet cured polyurethane coatings on surfaces such as concrete, metal, wood, etc. can show good adhesion.
Flexibility: Wet cured resin coatings generally have good flexibility, and their curing process is relatively mild, without forming excessively rigid cross-linked structures, which allows the coating to adapt to certain deformations of the substrate and is not prone to cracking. It is commonly used in protective coating applications that require a certain degree of elasticity and flexibility.
