Metallic Coatings
Metallic coatings are protective layers applied to surfaces, usually metals, to enhance their durability and resistance to corrosion, wear, and heat. Common methods include electroplating, where a metal layer is deposited using electricity, and thermal spraying, where molten metal particles are sprayed onto a surface. These coatings can improve the aesthetic appeal, increase lifespan, and maintain the integrity of products like machinery, vehicles, and building materials. By forming a barrier, metallic coatings help prevent rust and other damage, ultimately reducing maintenance costs and improving performance.
