Vomit Blood And Sort It Out! What You Need To Know About Stainless Steel Processing!
Regarding stainless steel, everyone may have a misunderstanding: stainless steel does not rust.
In fact, it does not mean that it will not rust, but that stainless steel is not easy to rust. Although the difference in words is not big, in reality it is quite different. If the stainless steel processing technology is not done well, the service life of tableware, electric pots, water heaters, etc. will be shortened and the chance of rust will be greatly increased.
In our daily life, we can see things made of stainless steel everywhere. Compared with other metal products, stainless steel has stronger corrosion resistance, good gloss and looks more beautiful.
The reason why stainless steel exists in every aspect of our lives is mainly because it has the following characteristics:
1. Good heat resistance
Stainless steel maintains its properties at high temperatures.
2. Good corrosion resistance
In order to test the corrosion resistance of stainless steel, some foreign businessmen have conducted corrosion resistance tests on some stainless steel tableware, kitchenware, water heaters and other finished products. Tests have shown that stainless steel has better corrosion resistance than other materials. OK
3. Better weldability
The tableware, thermos cups, water dispensers, etc. we use all require materials with good welding properties, and stainless steel is suitable for this material.
The reason why stainless steel has such good properties is inseparable from the processing technology of stainless steel.
Commonly used processing techniques for processing stainless steel in factories include: vacuum electroplating, water electroplating, electrophoresis, etc.
Nowadays, factories generally use electroplating technology to process stainless steel, and its use scenarios are also relatively wide. It is often used in jewelry, clothing, shopping malls and other places in our lives.
So what are the differences between these common electroplating processes?
Vacuum evaporation: Under high vacuum, workers heat and evaporate the material to form a thin film on its surface.
Water plating: It is a processing technology that uses DC electrolyzed water to precipitate metal or alloy on the surface of the workpiece, and uses the action of electrolyzed water to firmly bond the workpiece. It refers to physical and chemical changes and combinations.
Electrophoresis is divided into cathodic electrophoresis and anodic electrophoresis. The two are different. Electrophoresis technology requires electrophoresis fluid. Different types of electrophoresis require different electrophoresis solutions. Electrophoresis is generally used in spray paint, and is more commonly used in the automotive industry.
In this day and age, water plating is relatively scarce. As far as stainless steel processing technology is concerned, vacuum electroplating and electroplating processes are popular mainstream processes today.
