Briefing

Powder coating services is a high-performance surface finishing technique that applies dry powder to metal or plastic components using electrostatic attraction. Once cured under heat or UV light, it forms a tough, uniform layer that resists corrosion, scratches, and fading—while offering vibrant color and texture options.

⚙️ Anodizing: Durable Beauty Through Electrochemical Precision

🧩 What Is Anodizing?

Anodizing is an electrochemical process that enhances metal surfaces by forming a controlled oxide layer. It improves corrosion resistance, wear durability, and visual appeal—especially for aluminum components.

🔁 Process Workflow

Surface Preparation – cleaning and degreasing
Etching & Brightening – optional polishing or texturing
Anodizing Bath – acid electrolyte immersion
Electrochemical Reaction – oxide layer formation
Coloring – dyeing the porous layer (optional)
Sealing – hot water or nickel acetate treatment

🧪 Common Types of Anodizing

Type	Description	Oxide Thickness
Type I (Chromic Acid)	Thin, soft layer for aerospace	~0.5–2.5 μm
Type II (Sulfuric Acid)	Standard decorative finish	~5–25 μm
Type III (Hard Anodizing)	Thick, wear-resistant layer	~25–150 μm

🎨 Color & Finish Options

Natural silver
Black
Bronze
Blue, red, gold
Champagne and custom hues

🎯 Application Areas

✈️ Aerospace – housings, brackets
🚗 Automotive – trim, wheels
🏢 Architecture – panels, frames
📱 Electronics – casings, heat sinks
🩺 Medical – surgical tools
