In this work, we evaluate the water vapor transmission rate (WVTR), the permeability (P), solubility (S), and diffusion (D) coefficients of Paraloid B44, Paraloid B72, and Incralac coatings in the temperature range of 5–35°C. The Arrhenius function—diffusion activation energy and preexponential factor—has also been determined from the data: D_{B44} = 35.2;{text{cm}}^{2} ;{text{s}}^{ - 1} exp left( { - 25;{text{kJ mol}}^{ - 1} /{text{RT}}} right); D_{B72} = 9.5;{text{cm}}^{2} ;{text{s}}^{ - 1} exp left( { - 23;{text{kJ mol}}^{ - 1} /{text{RT}}} right); D_{text{Incralac}} = 622.8;{text{cm}}^{2} ;{text{s}}^{ - 1} { exp }left( { - 28;{text{kJ mol}}^{ - 1} /{text{RT}}} right). These resins are important coating materials, for example, for conservators to protect metallic artifacts, such as statues, against corrosion. Despite Paraloid B44 and B72 resins being considered as reference materials in conservation practice, that is, new coating materials (either water vapor retarders or transmitters) are often compared to them, there are no comprehensive data for the quantities describing the vapor permeability (P, S, D) of these materials. The measurements are based on the ISO cup-method using substrate/coating composite samples. The strength of this technique is that it can also be used when the coating is non-self-supporting; nevertheless, P, S, and D can be deduced for the coating layer itself, and it seems to be a standardizable procedure for comparative performance testing of coating materials. Paraloid B72 layers exhibited higher WVTRs—from 39 to 315 g m−2 day−1 as the temperature increased from 5 to 35°C—compared to Paraloid B44 and Incralac coatings—from 17 to 190 g m−2 day−1, respectively. The transmission rate parameters were also compared to the results of corrosion tests. Incralac was the most effective corrosion inhibitor, and the performance of the B44 was better than the B72, which is in good agreement with the transmission rate tests.
