Abstract

Superior performance of the polymer coating would expand their application in various industries. Integrating various nanoscale structures into the organic polymer matrix substantially improves the performance of polymer coatings, and hence be promising for various high-end applications. Among all of the properties of coatings, the mechanical properties are of great importance as they determine their service life. All service conditions and majority of end use of the polymer coatings involve severe mechanical loading. A thorough understanding of mechanical properties of the organic coatings was presented through this chapter. The chapter contents have been classified into adhesion test, scratch tests, durability, and tribology of the nanoscale polymer coatings with suitable examples in the published literature
