GETTING AWAY FROM TRADITION

Abstract

SURFACE treatment alternatives to traditional zinc and cadmium plating are in demand to ensure components meet extended corrosion guarantees and to overcome the toxic hazards of electroplating techniques. Matrix fluorocarbons provide these alternatives and this article describes how they meet the often conflicting demands for corrosion protection, thread lubrication, fine tolerance and the avoidance of hydrogen embrittlement.
