Surface treatment
Surface treatment
Surface treatment modifies material surfaces for specific properties or improved performance using techniques like cleaning, anodizing, coating, plating and heat treatment.
It enhances corrosion resistance, adhesion, hardness, reduces friction or wear, provides decorative finishes and facilitates material bonding. It is applicable to metals and plastics.
Advantages
Aesthetics – Enhances aesthetics through painting, powder coating or electroplating.
Protection – Anodizing, galvanizing or chrome plating prevents corrosion, extending product lifespan.
Enhanced durability – Heat treating enhances material hardness and wear resistance.
Enhanced adhesion – Enhanced material adhesion minimizes coating issues like peeling or flaking.
Applications
Clean and sterilize surfaces to remove contaminants and bacteria.
Enhance corrosion resistance and surface properties for extreme conditions.
Enhance surface properties for better wear resistance and longer lifespan.
Enhance metal components for appearance and corrosion resistance.
