Electroplating and anodizing

Electroplating and anodizing

  • 2019/11/14

In Seaport, we can anodize your materials to help you create quality products. Anodizing is an electrochemical process that converts a metal surface into a decorative, durable, corrosion-resistant anodized layer.


Anodizing is a metal finishing process used to make aluminum have a harder, wear-resistant solid surface.

Anodizing has many advantages, including:
1. Corrosion resistance - anodized to form a layer of alumina to protect the aluminum underneath for extended service life
2. Mechanical durability - when anodized, it forms a complete with the underlying aluminum.

3. Oxidizing or surfaceSexual substance - anodized coating. A clear coating can also be added to give the product a shine.

4.Color stability. The outer coating has good stability to ultraviolet light without cracking or peeling. These coatings can be

easily repeated.

5. Cost-effective aluminum has a low cost surface coating and low maintenance costs, saving a lot of long-term investment.

Electroplating is the process of plating a thin layer of metal or alloy on certain metal surfaces by electrolysis. It attaches a metal film to the surface of a metal or other material by electrolysis to prevent oxidation of the metal.

Electroplating benefits
Plating can be used for a variety of purposes, including:
1. Corrosion resistance - corrosive substances (such as iron) can usually be coated with a non-corrosive material (such as zinc or nickel) to form a protective layer

2. Heat resistant - heat resistant metals are beneficial in certain industries, such as aerospace or automobiles. These metals can withstand the high temperatures that airplanes, cars and trucks often carry.
3. Mechanical Durability - When another material is applied to a softer, more ductile metal, a higher strength product is usually formed. These products have better equipment to deal with potential damage.
4. Decorative or decorative purposes - Electroplating usually produces shiny, bright products on matte surfaces. Therefore, many retailers will Electroplated household items.

5. Cost-effective products can be made from price-replaced metals and coated with more expensive metals such as gold or silver. This may be a more economical choice.

6. Conductivity - Certain metals have properties that allow them to transfer heat or electricity. Conductive metals are very useful in the electronics, aerospace, automotive, and communications industries.


Electroplating is commonly used in electrical applications for electrical parts or components. When a negatively charged metal is applied to a positively charged metal, the ions attract. Although electroplating is generally one of the above advantages, it can also be used to reduce friction or prevent wear or radiation. The industry, from aviation and automotive to communications and healthcare, will benefit from this process.
