Can Monsoon Season or Rain Destruct Coating and Amplify Corrosion?

Monsoon season brings a lot of joy and happiness around the corner and is a reason to party and celebrate in many cultures. However, continuous rain, heavy rainfall or the commencement of monsoon season bring many other ordeals with them. Corrosion is the major issue observed on every metal and machine during monsoon. Best the coating companies sometimes fail to resist conditions like heavy rainfalls. Hence, it is very important that if you are delivering to a client who is residing in a location that experiences heavy rainfall, they always get their coating baches tested through an efficient salt spray tester.

How the monsoon affects the coating and amplifies corrosion?

Monsoon season means frequent rain incidents and some areas may also have heavy rainfall for a long continuous period. This result raises the humidity level of the surrounding air to a large radius of the area. Rising humidity means an abnormal amount of water molecules per square cm of air on any coating surface. This in turn makes the situation worse when the coating applied fails to resist the external conditions and the bonds weekend to break and develop a crack. This leads to starting of a chemical reaction between the oxygen in the air with the molecules in the metal ferrous. This results in an oxidation process and is also called corrosion.

During monsoon season this one-time reaction takes place several times and brings more corrosion to happen or amplifies corrosion at one place to spread over the entire machine, failing.

How can we increase the quality control over coating against monsoon?

The one solution that can help the coating manufacturer in producing a paint that can not only be resistant enough to tolerate the rain conditions but also be higher the quality as per the industry standards.

Salt Spray Chamber or Salt Fog Tester is a highly efficient corrosion tester for the coating industry. Manufactured & Designed by Pacorr, the machine brings high-end features that allow conducting artificial corrosion tests in an amplified method. It gives a free hand to the user to select the conditions to be built, they can build a high humidity, rain, or seaside anything and test the coating in the preferred conditions. This will give the producer an idea of how their product will behave in a particular environment and after how much time it will fail to resist and break down.
