The original electroplating technology will face challenges

The plating technology of metal processing makes the metal surface rust and corrosion, and has a very good protection. However, as the application of electroplating technology expands, its shortcomings become more and more obvious.

First of all, equipment investment is large, and the technical standards for the preparation of electroplating baths are high and demanding, which makes general investors stop. In the second place, direct current electricity is needed in production and energy consumption is high. Because the use of coated metal anodes is expensive, it limits its scope of application; the most important is the discharge of cyanide waste gas and wastewater during the production process, which seriously endangers people's physical and mental health and ecological environment.

Relevant state departments have issued a three-step statement and stopped processing approvals for new electroplating plants. All electroplating plants that cannot handle the three wastes will stop production. However, with the development of the market economy, the field of material surface treatment applications has gradually expanded, and the market demand is becoming increasingly urgent. The environment-friendly surface alloy catalyst liquid that came into being has become an ideal alternative to current electroplating because of its low cost, easy use, and simple process. The plating layer combines decorative, anti-corrosion, and wear-resistance properties.
