ART-NANO CHROME
We provide a wide range of Services
The ART-NANO Chrome additive combines exceptional thermal and chemical stability with nano-scale precision, enhancing the performance and durability of hard chrome coatings. By integrating our carbon nanomaterials into plating electrolytes, we help achieve smoother, harder, and more corrosion-resistant surfaces—ideal for demanding industrial applications.
- The ART-NANO Chrome additive’s high thermal and chemical stability;
- Chromium-plating speed range from 0.7 up to 1.42 mcm / min. Chromium-plating 50-55% reduction in time in comparison with the multipurpose electrolyte;
- The electrolyte high scattering power and the metal division according to macro-and micro-profile;
- Providing the necessary micro-cracking, low crystallinity;
- Microhardness variation range from 800 to 1270 HV 0.1;
- The ART-NANO Chrome — St40 chromium coating dry friction coefficient is 0.05-0.07, high resistance to corrosion abrasion obtained;
- Reduce in electricity consumption by 40-50% in comparison with the multipurpose chromium- plating electrolyte;
- High potential for subsequent polishing;
- Increased thermal stability.
