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.
