Classification Of Coatings
Sep 30, 2022| Classification of coatings
There are many kinds of coating, according to the use of performance classification as follows: (1) Protective coating: such as zinc, zinc - nickel, nickel, cadmium, tin coating, as the atmosphere and corrosion resistant coating of various corrosion environments. (2) protective - decorative coating: such as Cu-Ni-Cr coating, both decorative and protective. (3) Decorative coating: such as Au and Cu-Zn gold imitation coating, black chromium, black nickel coating, etc. (4) Wear resistance and wear reduction coating: such as hard chromium coating, loose hole coating, Ni-sic coating, Ni-graphite coating, Ni-PTFE composite coating, etc. (5) electrical properties coating: such as Au coating, Ag coating, both high conductivity, oxidation resistance, can avoid increasing contact resistance. (6) magnetic coating: such as soft magnetic coating Ni-Fe coating, Fe-Co coating; Hard magnetic properties of the co-P coating, Co-Ni coating, Co-Ni-P coating, and so on. (7) weldability coating: such as SN-Pb coating, Cu coating, Sn coating, Ag coating, etc. It can improve weldability and is widely used in the electronic industry. (8) heat resistant coating: such as Ni-W coating, Ni coating, Cr coating, high melting point, and high-temperature resistance. (9) Repair coating: some of the high cost of easy wear parts, or processing out-of-difference parts, the use of electroplating repair size, can save costs, and prolong the service life. For example, it can be repaired by plating Ni, Cr, and Fe layers. According to the electrochemical properties between the coating and the substrate metal, it can be divided into the anodic coating and negative coating. When the potential of the coating relative to the matrix metal is negative, the coating is the anode, called anodic coating, such as galvanized layer on steel; When the potential of the coating relative to the matrix metal is positive, the coating is the cathode, known as negative polarity coating, such as nickel coating on steel, tin coating and so on. If according to the combination of the coating form, the coating can be divided into a single coating, such as Zn or Cu layer; Multilayer metal coating, such as Cu-Sn/Cr coating, Cu/Ni/Cr coating, etc.; The composite coating, such as Ni-Al₂O₃ coating and Co-sic coating, etc. If the coating composition classification can be divided into a single metal coating, alloy coating, and composite coating.
