How to get black finish on
Stainless steel plates
.
dear sir/ma'm
i am serving as a purchase executive in a
measuring instrument mfg. company in INDIA.
i come across various requirements from our
production department for metal finishing ( surfacial ) needs for
different kind of products and development activities.
my query is that now, we are going for a
process called ELECTROPHORETIC LACQUER finishing for metals. we are
considering it to get a pitch black surface finish on a stainless
steel base metal by means of electrolysis process. kindly suggest me
that
1)the 'electrophoretic lacquer' finishing
is an electrolytic process or not ? if not
2) suggest me an alternative electrolytic
process that could render black finish on Stainless Steel matl ( 300
series)
looking forward for your reply , yours
faithfully

Yes, electrophoretic processes are
electrolytic processes, sometimes alternately known as e-coating,
e-painting, electrocoating, or electropainting.
You might want to talk to Coatec
India about the electrophoretic
lacquer process.
An alternate electrolytic process might be
stainless steel anodizing via the Prismatic
Process or autophoretic coating
from Henkel Technologies
