Development and Evaluation of Non-Chromate LHE ZnNi Passivations for DoD Electrical Connectors

Abstract

Corrosion protection of metallic components using hexavalent chromium coatings has been widely used for military and commercial application fordecades. Hexavalent chromium is a known carcinogen and alternative corrosion inhibitors that do not have negative environmental and health impacts areneeded. This project focused on development and evaluation of environmentally friendly trivalent chromium passivation on electroplated zinc nickel toreplace hexavalent chromium passivation for electrical connectors.
