In corrosion protection study, it is important to develop economically attractive test method for mitigation of corrosion damage of coated structure. Faster predication of protective behavior of any coating is a big challenge for the coating industries. In present work, in-house waterborne anticorrosive coating system was selected for study. The corrosion protection of coating evaluated as per ISO12944-C3-High which includes salt spray ISO 9227, 480h and quick condensation test ISO6270, 240h. The exposure period was extended up to 1000 h for further monitoring of deterioration of selected coating system. In view of early predication of coating performance, different accelerated test exposure condition were designed in laboratory, such as; thermal aging in distilled water 50°C and 80°C, chemical immersion H2SO4 and NaOH, wet-dry cycle and thermal cycling. The corrosion protection properties of coating exposed to ISO 12944-C3-High environment was compared against the lab designed test method using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy EIS technique. The deterioration rate of coating was measured by evaluating polarization resistance Rp, water uptake w and break point frequency Fb. The coated specimens after exposure were also evaluated for loss of adhesion strength. Results showed that thermal aging in distilled water at 80°C is the most severe exposure condition as coating system loses its protective behavior in relatively short period.
