The Akzo Nobel Scotch Brite Abrasion Test Machine measures a coating's resistance to a constant scrubbing with
an abrasive scouring pad. The vertical load on the scouring pad is set to 10 pounds (4.54kg), and the scouring
pad is changed every 10,000 strokes. Akzo Nobel technicians document the number of cycles that are required to
scrape the coating down to bare metal in order to gauge the abrasion resistance of the non-stick system.
