Excess phosphate coating weight

Dear Sir, as we know, class B phosphate COATING WT.RANGES from 1.1 to 4.3 gms/sq.mtr. I would like to know how does it affect PERFORMANCE in any way if coating weight exceeds given range.

Hi, Pandit. Is it possible to express your question in terms of the situation rather than as a hypothetical? A coating weight out of control can be the result of a number of different process parameters being out of control, not just one, and it is almost always impossible to predict the consequences of out of control processes; plus a long discussion of theoretical factors irrelevant to your actual situation is better for a textbook that for a forum response. So please, what is your actual situation? Thanks.
