Epoxy Coated Aluminium
•
Material Type: Aluminium substrate with an epoxy
resin coating for enhanced protection
•
Coating Thickness: Typically 25–100 microns (depending on the application)
•
Density: ~2.7 g/cm³ (for the aluminium base)
•
Tensile Strength: ~130–350 MPa (depending on the
aluminium alloy)
•
Corrosion Resistance: Excellent (epoxy coating provides superior protection against moisture, chemicals,
and corrosion)
•
Impact Resistance: Moderate to good
•
Temperature Resistance: Typically up to ~120–150°C,
depending on the epoxy formulation
•
Chemical Resistance: High resistance to many acids,
alkalis, and solvents
•
Electrical Conductivity: Low (epoxy coating acts as
an insulator)
•
Recycling: moderate to good
•
Applications: Medical carts, exterior building facades, outdoor equipment, automotive components,
electrical enclosures
•
Chemical Resistance: Moderate (resistant to
many chemicals but may degrade over time with
exposure to strong acids or alkalis)
•
Recycling: good
•
Applications: Wire racks, automotive parts, bathroom fixtures, machinery parts, decorative elements
Chrome-Plated Steel
•
Material Type: Steel substrate with a thin layer of
chromium deposited on the surface via electroplating
•
Coating Thickness: Typically 5–30 microns (depending on the application and process)
•
Density: ~7.85 g/cm³ (for the steel base)
•
Tensile Strength: Same as the steel base (varies by
steel grade)
•
Corrosion Resistance: Good (chromium provides a
shiny, corrosion-resistant surface but is less effective than other coatings like galvanizing in harsh
environments)
•
Hardness: High (the chrome layer is very hard and
resistant to scratching)
•
Surface Finish: Glossy, smooth, and reflective (high
aesthetic appeal)
•
Temperature Resistance: Typically up to ~500°C,
depending on the specific chrome plating process
