The salt spray cabinet is used as an accelerated test method to evaluate coatings. Oxygen permeability, moisture permeability and the adhesion of coatings were compared with the accelerated salt spray tests as a means to evaluate the performance of coatings. Painted brake cable parts were exposed in the salt spray cabinet. The permeability to oxygen and water of different pain films were measured. The results show a strong correlation between oxygen permeability and corrosion resistance of these coatings.
