Conversion coatings
Conversion coatings are chemical processes that transform the surface of the metal, creating a protective layer with high adhesion and durability.
- Phosphating – improves the adhesion of paints and varnishes, reduces friction and provides corrosion protection. A wide range of products suitable for use at high and room temperatures. A range of additives to enhance the cleaning effect.
-
- Oxidation – forms a thin oxide film for protection and decorative effect. Products are available for both hot and cold oxidation.
- Passivation – stabilises the metal surface and improves corrosion resistance.
Specialised aluminium treatments
Aluminium requires specific chemical processes to achieve optimum protection and functionality.
- Anodising – creates a hard, wear-resistant oxide layer.
- Conversion coatings for aluminium – improve adhesion and corrosion resistance during subsequent processing.
Organic coatings
Organic coatings provide additional protection, a decorative finish and durability under a variety of operating conditions.
Paints and protective films – for metal surfaces, components and parts exposed to the elements or mechanical stress.
