    The X-cut adhesion test report summarizes testing of the adhesion of coatings on a carbon steel test panel. Three X-cut adhesion tests were performed on coatings with a total thickness of 262-274 microns. No peeling or removal of coating was observed in any of the tests, and the test results were deemed satisfactory and meeting the acceptance criteria of Level 2. The test was witnessed by representatives from Exyte Services, LNT Coating, and Jotun Singapore.

    X-CUT ADHESION TEST REPORT

    REFERENCE: JT/LPG/LNT/2023/002 DATE: 02/10/2023

    Test Procedure

    Two test methods are described in ASTM D3359/ ISO 16276-2:2007 : Method A (X-cut), and Method B
    (Cross-cut). Test Method A is primarily intended for use on coatings/coating systems over 5 mils (125 µm),
    while Method B is generally used on coatings/coatings systems less than 5 mils thick. Either method can be
    performed in the shop, field or laboratory. The test was developed for assessing the adhesion of coating to steel
    but can be used on other hard substrates. The test has also been used successfully on softer substrates (e.g.,
    wood and plaster).

    Both tests are performed by scribing the coating to the substrate with a sharp knife blade in a specific pattern,
    applying a pressure sensitive tape and then rapidly pulling the tape from the surface. When the coating is
    greater than 5-mils thick, an X-cut (with each leg approximately 1.5-inches long) is made into the film. When
    the coating is less than 5-mils thick, a cross-cut lattice pattern is created with either six or eleven cuts in each
    direction. For coatings up to 2 mils thick, eleven incisions are made that are spaced 1 mm apart. For coatings
    between 2 mils and 5 mils thick, six incisions are spaced 2 mm apart. For both methods, a steel or other hard
    metal straightedge or template is recommended to ensure straight cuts and, in the case of the X-cut, the correct
    angle at the intersection (30-45°).

    Once the incisions are made, a pressure sensitive tape (with adhesive properties conforming to the requirements
    of the standard; Figure 1) is applied over the incisions and pressed in place using a pencil eraser. Following a
    brief “recovery” period of about 60 seconds the tape is removed by grasping the free end of the tape and pulling
    it off rapidly (not jerked) back upon itself at as close to an angle of 180° as possible. After removal of the tape,
    the amount of coating removed from the substrate or underlying coating is rated. It is important to evaluate the
    coated surface and not the back of the tape, since coating debris from the incisions is often removed by the
    tape.
