Alodine
Alodine is a protective coating used mainly on metal surfaces, especially aluminum, to prevent corrosion and improve durability. It involves applying a chemical that creates a thin, protective layer which resists rust and oxidation. This process also enhances the adhesion of paints and other coatings. Alodine is commonly used in aerospace, military, and industrial applications to extend the lifespan of metal components and ensure reliable performance in challenging environments. It’s a crucial step in surface preparation that combines corrosion resistance with improved surface adhesion, helping metals last longer and perform better.
