Using osee for Selecting among alternative surface cleanling processes
Abstract : Industry faces a dilemma in trying to select the "right" cleaning process. Evaluating alternative cleaning processes requires the answer to two questions: (1) is the new cleaning process as effective as the one being replaced? (2) Does the new cleaning process leave behind any residue that could be detrimental to subsequent processing or performance? This paper discusses reasons for ...

How Clean is Clean? Defining Acceptable Cleanliness Levels
Abstract : A key to surface finishing is a "properly" prepared surface. Defining and maintaining the surface preparation at "proper" levels is at best subjective. Often the failure of surface preparation processes is not discovered until problems, such as poor adhesion, occur down stream resulting in non-conformance due to poor surface cleanliness. To assure consistent quality of surface ...

Surface cleanliness monitoring to Improve coating/Paint adhesion
Surface preparation is one of the most important factors in assuring proper adhesion of the rust prevention/paint adhesion chemicals to the coil and decorative/protective or laminate adhesion to prepared surface. These treatments can be defined as "coatings". Several after the fact tests are currently used in the coil coating industry to check adhesion of these "coatings" to the surface. Usually ...
