Adhesive Film Coating Rod

The coating applicator rod controls the transfer amount of coating through grooves engraved on its body, forming a uniform wet film on the substrate surface. It is used in laboratories to simulate the scraping coating process and to test properties such as the leveling and hiding power of coatings. It is suitable for coating tests of liquid materials such as inks and adhesives.
Selection
Select the groove depth based on the viscosity of the material to be tested, with common specifications ranging from 25 to 200 micrometers. Stainless steel is suitable for water-based materials, while special alloys should be used for corrosive materials. The rod length must cover the width of the sample, and it should be cleaned promptly with the appropriate solvent after use for maintenance.
