PVC Plastisol Coat Build & Fusion Dwell Calculator

Plastisol loses nothing to evaporation, so every micron of gap stays on the cloth. What it can lose is fusion, and an unfused film looks perfect until it peels.

Fusion Dwell Adequacy

Fusion adequacy below 100% means the film gels but never fuses — it will look and feel finished while delaminating in service, and no amount of extra coating weight fixes it. Check fusion by solvent or tensile test on the finished cloth rather than by appearance.
