    How Do You Calculate Coating Weight for a Cylinder in the Automotive Industry?

    Nate, i have located a density for one particular coating... so now I will have... SA=252.898mm2 Thickness=0.0076mm Density= 8.01lb/gal Also, for all intensive purposes, the avg of the max and min will suffice. This will give me units of mm3lb/gal How can I convert this to...

    How Do You Calculate Coating Weight for a Cylinder in the Automotive Industry?

    The coating average thicknesses that I have are from a range that our facility has for min and max coating thickness. I have simply averaged the min and max. I don't think that I can just leave out the units in mm of the average thickness. It would seem that I would need the density of the...

    How Do You Calculate Coating Weight for a Cylinder in the Automotive Industry?

    Thanks Nate! Now if I only have the surface area and an average thickness, how will that work. Since, Coating Weight=Thickness x Surface Area x Density I have an avg Thickness of 0.0076mm Surface Area of 252.898mm2 How are the units going to work out for that? I don't know why this...

    How Do You Calculate Coating Weight for a Cylinder in the Automotive Industry?

    for the coating weight that I am trying to calculate... I know that Coating Weight=Thickness x Surface Area x Density It seems that my units are not working out right. I have a Thickness=0.02032mm Surface Area=252.898mm2 Density of 0.0081mg/mm2 I end up with units of mg mm? What...

    How Do You Calculate Coating Weight for a Cylinder in the Automotive Industry?

    I have set up calculations for both the inner and outer surface area as well as the total surface area. The coating will be very thin, I have a range of 150-1350mg/ft2. The coating thickness won't actually be measured. I will have the surface area and hopefully I will be able to find the...

    How Do You Calculate Coating Weight for a Cylinder in the Automotive Industry?

    Hello, This is not homework etc. I am in the work place (automotive industry) and have a question. It has been some time since I have taken any math courses. I am trying to calculate the theoretical weight of a known coating on the surface of a hollow cylinder and set this up in an excell...
