Aluminum chromate conversion coatings - often referred to as chemical film or under the trade names Alodine or Irridite - produce a thin coating on the the material. Aluminum chromate conversion coatings are amorphous in structure with a gel-like composition hydrated with water. This characteristic provides aluminum chromate conversion coatings with a unique self-healing characteristic if scratched or abraded. Metal exposed from a scratch slowly becomes covered by soluble chromate from areas adjacent to the scratch.
In addition to providing corrosion resistance, our chromating services also provide a good base for paint as well as other applications that require adhesion. Chromating is ideal for applications that warrant an electrically conductive coating. Our chemical film coating is offered in two different colors - clear and yellow iridescent.
