Zinc-nickel - Import export

"The zinc-nickel process has developed in recent years into a process providing one of the most efficient coatings in surface refinement, and is primarily used where high corrosion resistance at a high temperature load is required. Zinc-nickel alloys with 12-16% nickel content are very temperature-resistant, the higher level of hardness compared to the normal zinc coatings is also a very important property, since the risk of damage is lower. The process is related to the conventional alkaline zinc method, but has excellent durability even without post-treatment. This process is suitable for both barrel and rack goods."

"In this method, a process on the surface of zinc, zinc-iron or zinc-nickel produces a defined thin and durable passivation coating, which enhances corrosion resistance. The different passivation processes differ with regard to corrosion protection, appearance, coating thickness and colouring. Often the passivation processes are additionally enhanced by seals (topcoats). These topcoats not only provide even greater corrosion protection, but also provide a more uniform appearance. The topcoats are adjustable to define the friction properties. Passivation processes are provided exclusively chrome-6 free."
