Coating Stability Tests: Keep Accelerated Screening Separate from Shelf-Life Claims

Accelerated screening can help investigate behaviour, but it does not automatically establish an equivalent real-time shelf life.

Updated · NANOLAB Knowledge

Practical approach

Use a technically justified programme with defined conditions, endpoints and relevant real-time evidence.

A short elevated-temperature test may identify a problem without proving how many months the commercial pack will remain suitable.

Decision limits

Do not invent a universal temperature-to-time multiplier for every coating formulation.
