Cathodic disbonding on coated steel panels was studied. The coating was applied by airless spraying on blast-cleaned steel surfaces. The importance of electrolyte, polarization potential, dry film thickness, and temperature was investigated. The time dependence of disbonding was determined in a long-term test in natural seawater. Implications of the test results for the relevance of the ASTM G 8 test were reviewed. The ASTM G 8 test generally is considered an accelerated test because the applied potential is as low as [minus]1,450 mV to [minus]1,550 mV vs a copper-copper sulfate (Cu-CuSO[sub 4]) reference electrode.
