Daily Quiz (32)


Scientists at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay have developed a new method for measuring coating performance, allowing for the quantification of what type of reaction rate?


True or false: There is a mood coating available in the commercial industry that uses biomimicry, a unique formulation that contains modified thermotropic liquid crystals that respond to pheromones given off by people nearby, causing its color to change.


Which association issues standards of performance for coatings applied over aluminum panels and extrusions for commercial buildings?


True or false: The service life of a duplex system consisting of galvanizing and paint has been reported in some studies to be a factor of 2.3 to 4 times the sum of the individual service lives for galvanizing and painting, depending on the exposure environment.


True or false: In atmospheric weathering exposures, aromatic polyureas perform much better than aliphatic polyureas in retaining elastomeric properties.


True or false: In the Masterspec section on fluid-applied air barriers, only high-build coatings meet the most rigorous air-barrier performance requirements of the International Code Council.


True or false: In accelerated QUV exposure tests, FEVE fluoropolymer-based coatings have outperformed acrylic polyurethane and polysiloxane topcoats in terms of color and gloss retention.


Which of the following organizations does not certify the performance of coating materials?


True or false: Salt spray accelerated testing of coating performance correlates well with atmospheric exposure testing.


True or false: A research study by Roper, Weaver and Brandon indicated that the number of peaks in a steel surface profile created by abrasive blasting has an effect on performance of coatings applied to the steel.


True or false: ANSI/NSF 61 addresses the health effects of coatings for potable water tanks but not coatings performance issues.


True or false: A PaintSquare blogger recently wrote the following: "Strong adhesion is the key to coating performance and long life.”


True or false: Coatings for faying surfaces require the special performance property of edge retentiveness.


True or false: Atlas Test Cells are sometimes used to test the performance of immersion linings.


True or false: A recent Naval Research Laboratory study determined that coating performance is not adversely affected by chloride contamination.


How is a mechanical rubbing machine used in coating work?


A new kind of artificial dirt was recently created and used in an accelerated performance study of what type of coatings?


True or False: Anodizing provides excellent corrosion resistance in coastal settings.


What organization recently issued a performance standard for coatings on concrete in waste treatment facilities?


True or false: The number of peaks in a steel surface profile created by abrasive blast cleaning has no effect on coating performance.


What organization produces the “Extreme Green” classification of coatings based on both performance and emission levels?


True or False? The ISO has developed and is implementing a performance standard for coatings on cargo oil tankers.


A pencil hardness test is sometimes recommended to evaluate what characteristic of a coating?


What organization created a recipe for synthetic dirt in order to create an accelerated test for determining the longevity of reflectivity in roof coatings?


A Barcol Impressor measures what characteristic of a coating?


An Atlas Test Cell is normally used to test the performance of what kind of coating material?


What organization has a Wall Coating Validation Program “to provide specifiers and end users of wall coating products an unbiased method to judge whether wall coating products will perform at the levels of the manufacturer’s published data sheet for that particular product?”


Coatings for faying surfaces require what special performance property?


An Atlas Test Cell is normally used to test the performance of what kind of coating material?


What is the most important factor to consider in ensuring the success of a coating on an offshore platform?


True or false: A research study by Roper, Weaver and Brandon indicated that the number of peaks in a steel surface profile created by abrasive blast cleaning affects coating performance.


Baked enamel coating systems based on acrylics or polyesters are most likely to fall short of fluoropolymer systems in what performance property?
