Thermal shock
DIN EN ISO 2819
This test forms part of the following manufacturer and specification standards:
Mercedes/Daimler
DBL 8451
Volkswagen
TL 217 TL 244
The thermal shock test is used in particular to assess the adhesion strength of electroplated coatings. To do this, the test specimen is heated and then quenched in cold water. The differing coefficients of thermal expansion, combined with the temperature gradient, result in a brief mechanical stress between the coating and the base material. No cracks or flaking must occur during this process.
