Passivation is the process of treating or coating a metal in order to reduce the chemical reactivity of its surface. In stainless steel, passivation means removing the free iron from the surface of the metal using an acid solution to prevent rust.

Conversion and pretreatment processes are essential for preparing metal surfaces for subsequent finishing operations. These processes improve corrosion resistance, paint adhesion, and overall part durability.

Phosphating is a chemical process for treating the surface of steel, where barely soluble metal-phosphate layers are formed on the base material. The layers created are porous, absorbent and suitable as a conversion layer for subsequent powder coating without further treatment.
Heat treating processes require three basic steps
Heating to a specified temperature.
Holding at that temperature for the appropriate amount of time.
Cooling according to prescribed methods.
Heat treating can soften metal, to improve formability. It can make parts harder, to improve strength. It can put a hard surface on relatively soft components, to increase abrasion resistance. It can create a corrosion-resistant skin, to protect parts that would otherwise corrode. And, it can toughen brittle products.We could provide different HT methods for your parts,such as: quenching and tempering, nitriding process.
