| Alkaline Zinc-Nickel Alloy + Cr3 (e.g., ZN-318) | 8 – 15 (12-15% Ni) | 480h to White Rust / 1000h to Red Rust | Marine Hardware, Heavy Machinery, Chassis Parts | ASTM B841, GMW3044, VW TL 244 |
| Electroless Nickel Plating (e.g., HITEC EN Series) | 10 – 50 (Low-High P) | Up to 1000h (High P) / Superior Wear Resistance | Semiconductor Tooling, Valve Components, Aerospace | MIL-C-26074, ASTM B733 |
Overcoming the technical and environmental limitations of traditional hexavalent plating systems
Our 8315 Alkaline Bright Zinc system eliminates highly toxic cyanide compounds from the plating line, reducing wastewater treatment costs and improving workplace safety.
Addressing European restrictions on cobalt salts, our R&D division has developed cobalt-free Cr3 formulas that deliver equivalent corrosion protection without hazardous heavy metals.
By optimizing deposition kinetics, our additives operate efficiently at lower temperatures, reducing the carbon footprint of industrial-scale electroplating lines.
The technological evolution of functional surface coatings through 2030
Global replacement of hexavalent chromates with trivalent chromium (Cr3) formulations, achieving baseline neutral salt spray (NSS) performance of 72 to 120 hours to white rust.
Development of high-corrosion Cr3 formulations containing no cobalt, maintaining compliance with stricter ECHA regulations while improving thermal shock resistance up to 150°C.
Incorporation of colloidal nanostructured silica within the trivalent matrix to create a self-healing film that seals microcracks under stress.
Transitioning critical components to alkaline zinc-nickel alloy plating with specialized trivalent passivates, providing over 1000 hours of corrosion resistance for EV and aerospace applications.
