Good adhesion is an essential characteristic that all coatings must possess to enhance durability, aesthetics, and appearance. Adequate wetting is crucial during the coating process to ensure compatibility between the substrate and coating. After drying or polymerization, the coating must remain firmly attached to the surface for the duration of its service life. Special attention must be paid to plastic substrates, such as those used in OEM automotive parts, as they require unique adhesion considerations. With approximately 10% of the total vehicle weight consisting of plastic components, the trend of utilizing plastics in automotive applications continues to grow due to their flexibility, strength, corrosion resistance, and increased styling capability. To achieve optimal adhesion performance, coating professionals must be knowledgeable about the latest trends and technologies, including the use of appropriate adhesion promoters and leveling additives, as these details can make a significant difference in the final outcome.
