| Abstract: | ABSTRACT The aim of this work is to study the infrared drying and curing kinetics of a model water-based epoxy-amine painting coaled on iron support. After a presentation of the model painting elaborated in our laboratory, experimental and theoretical data of the curing kinetics are presented. Then, we described the special laboratory-scale infrared dryer set up in our laboratory. This dryer was able to carry on drying experiments with uniform infrared flux densities between 0 to 25 kW,m-2 The study of the painting drying as a function of the infrared flux density and of the film thickness shows the influence of these two main physical parameters. |
