2. Phosphate conversion coating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphate_conversion_coating

   Phosphate conversion coating. Phosphate conversion coating is a chemical treatment applied to steel parts that creates a thin adhering layer of iron, zinc, or manganese phosphates, to achieve corrosion resistance, lubrication, or as a foundation for subsequent coatings or painting. [1][2][3] It is one of the most common types of conversion ...

3. Conversion coating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_coating

   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 ...

4. 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 ...

5. Black oxide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_oxide

   Black oxide or blackening is a conversion coating for ferrous materials, stainless steel, copper and copper based alloys, zinc, powdered metals, and silver solder. [1] It is used to add mild corrosion resistance, for appearance, and to minimize light reflection. [2] To achieve maximal corrosion resistance the black oxide must be impregnated ...

6. Hydrogen embrittlement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_embrittlement

   e. Hydrogen embrittlement (HE), also known as hydrogen-assisted cracking or hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC), is a reduction in the ductility of a metal due to absorbed hydrogen. Hydrogen atoms are small and can permeate solid metals. Once absorbed, hydrogen lowers the stress required for cracks in the metal to initiate and propagate, resulting ...

7. Hot-dip galvanization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot-dip_galvanization

   Hot-dip galvanization. Hot-dip galvanization is a form of galvanization. It is the process of coating iron and steel with zinc, which alloys with the surface of the base metal when immersing the metal in a bath of molten zinc at a temperature of around 450 °C (842 °F). When exposed to the atmosphere, the pure zinc (Zn) reacts with oxygen (O 2 ...
