Thailand Q-PANEL Standard Test Substrates Webinar

Protective and decorative coatings – including paints, plating, adhesives, sealants, and rust inhibitors – undergo a wide range of testing for research, development, and quality control purposes. For these tests on coatings to be reliable and reproducible, the substrates to which the coatings are applied must be consistent from test to test. This ensures that test results accurately represent the performance of the coating itself, rather than the material being coated or the interface between them.

To meet this need, Q-Lab offers Q-PANEL steel and aluminum test substrates, recognized as the world standard for consistent and uniform test surfaces. Thousands of labs around the world use millions of these test panels every year for tests including color development, weathering exposures, salt spray and corrosion testing, physical properties testing, and quality control. Webinar topics will include:

• The 50+ history of Q-PANEL substrates
• Standard steel and aluminum Q-PANEL offerings
• Mass-loss coupons for corrosion testing
• Automotive Refresh Training System (ARTS), specialty, and custom panels
