Activator Powder - Activator powder is commonly used in surface treatment processes to enhance the effectiveness of subsequent treatments, such as phosphating, electroplating, or chromatizing. Its primary function is to prepare the metal surface by cleaning, etching, or pre-conditioning it, ensuring better adhesion and uniformity of the final coating. * Key Functions of Activator Powder: 1. Surface Cleaning: Removes oxides, contaminants, and residual oils. 2. Etching: Slightly roughens the surface for improved adhesion of coatings. 3. Activation: Prepares the surface for the next chemical treatment by ensuring uniform reaction. * Typical Applications: 1. Phosphating Processes: Used to activate the metal surface before applying phosphate coatings. 2. Electroplating: Ensures a clean and prepared surface for effective deposition of the electroplated layer. 3. Chromatizing: Prepares surfaces for conversion coatings (like yellow chromatizing). # Activator Powder Manufacturer.
