Coatings for Electrical Connector Shells.

Abstract

Coatings for improved corrosion protection of aluminum alloy connector shells have been investigated with a view toward replacing currently employed coatings. Cyclic heating/corrosion tests as well as S02-salt spray exposure have indicated that duplex electroless nickel-cadmium coatings protect 6061 aluminum alloy well if they are thick enough (17,8 micrometer (.0007 in)). Use of these coatings is recommended. (Author)
