2. Chromate conversion coating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromate_conversion_coating

   Chromate conversion coating or alodine coating is a type of conversion coating used to passivate steel, aluminium, zinc, cadmium, copper, silver, titanium, magnesium, and tin alloys. [ 1 ] : p.1265 [ 2 ] The coating serves as a corrosion inhibitor , as a primer to improve the adherence of paints and adhesives , [ 2 ] as a decorative finish, or ...

3. Conversion coating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_coating

   A conversion coating is a chemical or electro-chemical treatment applied to manufactured parts that superficially converts the material into a thin adhering coating of an insoluble compound. These coatings are commonly applied to protect the part against corrosion , to improve the adherence of other coatings, for lubrication , or for aesthetic ...

4. Cronak process - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cronak_process

   The Cronak process is a conventional chromate conversion coating process developed in 1933 by The New Jersey Zinc Company. [1] It involves immersing a zinc or zinc-plated article for 5 to 15 seconds in a chromate solution, typically prepared from sodium dichromate and sulfuric acid. [2]

5. Cadmium chromate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadmium_chromate

   It is relevant to chromate conversion coating, which is used to passivate common metal alloys such as aluminium, zinc, cadmium, copper, silver, magnesium, and tin. [2] In conversion coating chromate reacts with these metals to prevent corrosion, retain electrical conductivity, and provide a finish for the appearance of the final alloy products. [3]

6. Zinc chromate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc_chromate

   Zinc chromate, Zn Cr O 4, is a chemical compound, a salt containing the chromate anion, appearing as odorless yellow powder or yellow-green crystals, but, when used for coatings, pigments are often added. [2] [3] [4] It is used industrially in chromate conversion coatings, having been developed by the Ford Motor Company in the 1920s. [5]

7. Passivation (chemistry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passivation_(chemistry)

   Aluminium chromate conversion coatings are amorphous in structure with a gel-like composition hydrated with water. [18] Chromate conversion is a common way of passivating not only aluminium, but also zinc, cadmium, copper, silver, magnesium, and tin alloys. Anodizing is an electrolytic process that forms a thicker oxide layer.

8. Anodizing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anodizing

   Coatings of moderate thickness 1.8 μm to 25 μm (0.00007" to 0.001") [16] are known as Type II in North America, as named by MIL-A-8625, while coatings thicker than 25 μm (0.001") are known as Type III, hard-coat, hard anodizing, or engineered anodizing. Very thin coatings similar to those produced by chromic anodizing are known as Type IIB.

9. Chrome plating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrome_plating

   Hexavalent chromium plating solution is used for both decorative and hard plating, as well as bright dipping of copper alloys, chromic acid anodizing, and chromate conversion coating. [2] A typical hexavalent chromium plating process is: Activation bath; Chromium bath; Rinse; Second rinse
