Abstract

AbstractBecause of low cost, easily productivity and high thermal conductivity, aluminum (Al) moulds are preferred in the production of the polyurethane (PUR) parts. In this study, adhesion behavior and surface properties of coated materials between mould used in the production of automotive seat and PUR materials were investigated. Four different polymer types were coated on Al mould and they were characterized using contact angle, surface roughness, coating thickness, adhesion, cross-cut and SEM test methods. It was found that, PFA has the least value of surface roughness and ETFE has the highest one in the four different coatings produced. After holding period in isocyanate, decrease were measured on the angle values of all coatings. In the contact angle measurements before and after isocyanate tests, PFA exhibited the highest contact angle value.
