Standard Practice for Preparation of Titanium and Titanium Alloys for Electroplating

Importancia y uso:

3.1 Electroplated metals are used on titanium to enhance and improve its surface characteristics, such as, but not limited to; hardness, anti-galling, wear resistance and corrosion resistance. Effectively preparing titanium surfaces prior to metal plating is especially challenging due to the tenacity of titanium’s oxide film. Proper surface preparation is critical to activating titanium and achieving optimum plating results and coating performance.

3.2 This practice outlines surface preparation procedures required to produce satisfactory coatings on titanium alloys.
