Abstract
Abstract Steel/epoxy peel specimens were prepared using ethylene-mercaptoester (EME) copolymer coupling agents (90 wt% mercaptoester units) applied in thickness ranging from 25 to 350 A. An optimum thickness of approximately 140 A, which corresponded to an over 200% increase in peel strength when compared to 50 A thick samples, was determined from ellipsometry and 90° peel strength measurements. The corrosion protection obtained was essentially independent of coupling agent thickness.
