2012-12-07
Published : Dec-2012

Metal finishing can be defined as the deposition of a coating, which may be metallic or non-metallic on to a metallic substrate. Metal finishing constitutes various methods used by most industries that manufacture metal parts and manufacturers execute the finishing after a metal part has been formed. Metal finishing can be any activity that alters the surface of a workpiece to attain specific characteristics. It can be a surface treatment yielding a thin film, to enhance the appearance, function or performance of a product, and to give added value and increased marketability. Metal finishing includes a number of operations, including surface preparation, surface pretreatment and then the actual coating process. The coating process may be organic, inorganic or hybrid. In this report, the emphasis will be on inorganic metal coating technologies, relevant processes and products and their respective global as well as regional markets.
