Adhesion

What Is Adhesion in Epoxy Coatings? (Mechanical vs. Chemical Bonding Explained)

In this article, we break down the two fundamental mechanisms—mechanical and chemical adhesion—and explain how their interaction determines whether a coating truly bonds to a surface or eventually peels away.

Adhesion

The difference Between Adhesion and Cohesion in Materials

A coating can have the best resin and pigments—but if it doesn’t properly wet the surface, it will fail. Wetting additives ensure uniform coverage, adhesion, and appearance. Without them, defects are only a matter of time.
