Alloy Plating Additives

With the continuous development of the plating process, plating with alloys has become very popular. This is mainly due to the additional advantages that alloys offer over single metals. For example, both zinc and nickel are widely used in a variety of finishing applications on their own, but a combination of the two metals provides a far greater resistance to corrosion than the individual metals can offer. In the alloy plating process, we offer several common alloy plating additives. For example, alkaline black Sn-Ni alloy plating additive, bright Cu-Sn alloy plating additive, Zn-Ni alloy plating additive, etc. These additives play an important role in the alloy plating process, which mainly stems from the fact that they help to improve the properties of the plating.

Advantages of alloy plating

With the rapid development of industry, people have higher demands on the surface performance and appearance of metals. As a result, alloy plating has emerged. Plating surfaces with alloy coatings offer many advantages. The main advantages are as follows.

• Improved plating performance: Alloy plating may have properties and combinations of properties that cannot be achieved with pure metal plating. For example, some alloy plating have high hardness and good appearance at the same time.
• Low cost: Alloys are inexpensive and readily available, and alloy plating can be used as a substitute for precious metal plating.
• High ductility: Alloy plating can improve the conductivity in electronic devices, including anything from power generators to computers.
• Corrosion resistance: Certain alloys when applied onto surfaces prevent the substrate from corroding.

Applications of alloy plating

With the aid of additives, alloy plating has been useful in many fields. The main applications are as follows.

• Automotive: Corrosion in automobiles is one of the headaches for all automakers. Alloy plating is one of the solutions proposed by the manufacturers. Alloy plating protects vehicles and their crucial parts from sustaining rust damage. Applying a thin layer of zinc-nickel to metal elements keeps corrosion from reaching the surface, preventing the formation of rust and further consequences.
• Electronics: To improve the performance of products, manufacturers plate many of the metal components with alloys. It helps create electronics with longer lifespans, and it also makes the devices more resistant to potential corrosion and increases internal conductivity. For parts that need it, the alloy also increases the substrate's solderability, making it easier to configure with other components and elements. Alloys also protect delicate electronics from premature wear.
• Medical: Medical devices require plating of specific parts of metal components in many scenarios. For example, the surface of surgical instruments needs to be plated with alloy to avoid contamination.
