Plasti Dip is a rubbery coating made to bond to most surfaces, and is commonly used on handles for tools. It’s meant to stand up to outdoor applications and extreme temperatures, and it can extend the ...

A short description of each application process and the properties of the coating developed is given in the below sections. In zinc electroplating, the items to be coated are immersed in a solution ...

Steel is a strong, versatile and relatively inexpensive material with a great many uses in many different industries. It has, however, one major disadvantage. It is prone to corrosion, even in ...

Fastener coatings or finishes improve appearance, increase corrosion resistance, and provide lubricity. Electrodeposited coatings: Zinc, cadmium, tin, nickel, and chromium coatings are most common for ...

A cross-section illustration demonstrates the bonding mechanism common in hydrophilic coatings. Hydrophilic coatings exhibit water-loving characteristics. Chemically, this means they participate in ...
