A Corrosion Resistant Coating For IVD Aluminum; Third Annual Joint Service Pollution Prevention Conference and Exhibition Held on 24-27 Aug 1998

Abstract

Conversion coating is the chemical treatment of a metal surface to produce an adherent coating composed of protective chemicals which primarily inhibit corrosion and increase paint adhesion, while providing acceptable contact electrical resistance. Chromate conversion coatings (CCC) are produced by combining chromium compounds, identified as one of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) top 17 worst industrial toxins, with other water-soluble inorganic materials. Non-Chromate conversion coatings (NCCC) are produced by using various non-chromium containing compounds to perform the same function as the current CCC.
