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 to ...

3. Anodizing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anodizing

   Anodizing. These carabiners have an anodized aluminium surface that has been dyed; they are made in many colours. Anodizing is an electrolytic passivation process used to increase the thickness of the natural oxide layer on the surface of metal parts. The process is called anodizing because the part to be treated forms the anode electrode of an ...

4. Photosensitive anodized aluminum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosensitive_Anodized...

   Photosensitive anodized aluminum, also referred to as photo anodized aluminum or photo metal, utilizes the porous nature of unsealed anodized aluminum [1] to create a sub-surface image. The image can be created either through exposure and development of an anodic layer impregnated with silver compounds [2] (Type 1 [3]), much like traditional ...

5. 5083 aluminium alloy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5083_aluminium_alloy

   5083 aluminium alloy is an aluminium–magnesium alloy with magnesium and traces of manganese and chromium. It is highly resistant to attack by seawater and industrial chemicals. [1] Alloy 5083 retains exceptional strength after welding. It has the highest strength of the non-heat treatable alloys with an Ultimate Tensile Strength of 317 MPa or ...

6. Electroplating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroplating

   Electroplating, also known as electrochemical deposition or electrodeposition, is a process for producing a metal coating on a solid substrate through the reduction of cations of that metal by means of a direct electric current. The part to be coated acts as the cathode (negative electrode) of an electrolytic cell; the electrolyte is a solution ...

7. Anodic aluminium oxide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anodic_aluminium_oxide

   Anodic aluminium oxide. Anodic aluminum oxide, anodic aluminum oxide (AAO), or anodic alumina is a self-organized form of aluminum oxide that has a honeycomb -like structure formed by high density arrays of uniform and parallel pores. The diameter of the pores can be as low as 5 nanometers and as high as several hundred nanometers, and length ...
