Description

PURPOSE

The salt spray test is performed for the purpose of determining
the adequacy of protective coatings or finishes, and has been
widely used to evaluate the resistance of metals to corrosion in
marine service or in exposed shore.locations. This test has proved
to be useful as a tool of the engineer to provide practical
qualitative check on the application of metallic and other finishes
to metallic surfaces. The salt spray test is an accelerated
corrosion test and is a compromise since the test conditioning
bears relation to the natural environment only to the extent
possible within the defined test procedure. This test should not be
considered as a simulated test of a natural or field
service condition without full consideration of its
limitations.
