3. Comparison of different satin finishes
In 2.1 , various theories of metal/plastic adhesion were presented. The ability of a satin finish to form more or less mechanical or chemical anchorage on the same substrate can be monitored by analyzing the surface roughness or functionalization of the plastic substrate.
A profilometer analysis can be used to determine surface roughness, and thus to assess the mechanical...
