Copper-Nickel-Chromium Systems
MacDermid Enthone Decorative Copper-Nickel-Chrome Systems add extraordinary durability, elegance, and style to a diversity of plastic and metal parts, making them distinctive, lustrous and highly functional. Each system is engineered to meet the highest standards e.g. for corrosion protection and is ideally suited for a wide range of industry segments such as automotive, building hardware and other applications.
From wheels, grills, bumpers, and door handles, to plumbing fixtures, hand tools, doorknobs, lighting fixtures and more, MacDermid Enthone Decorative Systems make parts look and perform their best. The well known and established MacDermid Enthone Decorative Systems processes deliver precise deposit thickness and reliable adhesion, while also meeting automotive thermal cycle and CASS requirements. Each system includes environmentally compliant processes that decrease the use of toxic chemicals, reduce waste treatment.
ELPELYT® SB-45 |
The semi-bright nickel is engineered to ensure that internal stress of the nickel deposit is reduced upon direct impact, eliminating adhesion loss. The process exhibits exceptional throwing power resulting in better corrosion behavior in combination with MacDermid Enthone multilayer nickel system |
ELPELYT LS-1 |
bright nickel improving brightness across a broad current density range, delivering high decorative bright nickel deposit. Exhibits low stress and exceptional coverage and leveling power. |
NiMac Clarion II |
bright nickel with good leveling and highly glossy and ductile nickel layer suitable for metal and plastic plating. |
ELPELYT GS-7 |
bright nickel is specially engineered for plating on metal substrates. High leveling process with exceptional coverage on steel, brass and other metal substrates. Excellent throwing power resulting in better corrosion behavior due to thicker nickel plating in low current density areas |
NiMac Challenger Plus |
bright nickel for metal plating with high performance and exceptional leveling and brightness. Exhibits very good deposit ductility and chromium receptivity. With wide working window e.g. tolerance to overdose of brightener. |
ELPELYT PEARLBRITE |
matte nickel process provides a reproducible and uniform satin deposit giving designers a full range of flexibility from light to matt finish. An industry-leading range of satin nickel finishes for automotive, sanitary and other decorative applications. Specified and approved by all major automotive OEM’s |
DURNi 4000 (Microporous) |
microporous nickel process provides unsurpassed corrosion protection while enabling consistent and reproducible microporous deposits uniformly across the chromium surface. With excellent pores distribution (micropores > 10.000 pores / cm²) and stabile STEP |
ELPELYT MR (Microcracked) |
microcracked nickel process provides reproducible crack count (micro-cracks 20-80/ mm (200-800/ cm)improving corrosion resistance performance on CASS where requested |
NiMac Hi-S 8108 (High-sulfur) |
High-activity nickel layer which is deposited between the semi-bright and bright nickel layers. Provides the ultimate corrosion resistance in applications such as automotive. |
ANKOR® |
Hexavalent bright chrome processes offer high deposition rates, uniform deposits, and exceptional corrosion and wear resistance. Processes are formulated for use under a wide range of current densities and temperatures that enable simplified operation. |
TRILYTE Flash SF |
Sulfate-based, white trivalent chrome for non-steel applications provides exceptional coverage and a bright, light color comparable to traditional hexavalent chrome layers. The TRILYTE Flash SF deposit is consistent over normal current density ranges. TRILYTE Flash SF will tolerate current interruptions, provide more uniform metal distribution and reduce or eliminate high current density burning as compared to conventional hexavalent layers |
TRILYTE Flash CL |
Chloride-based deposit color is consistent overall current density ranges. The process is tolerant to current interruptions, provides excellent uniform metal distribution and reduces or eliminates burning when compared to conventional hexavalent chromium deposits. |
TWILITE |
Sulfate-based, mid-dark trivalent chromium solution. With durable finish for exterior applications. Developed for use in automotive, sanitary and consumer electronic applications. |
STARLITE |
Sulfate-based, dark trivalent chromium solution well know on the market. The process provides uniform metal distribution and stabile color. The Starlite process utilizes a simple additive system. |
TriMac ECLIPSE |
The darkest trivalent chrome provides lustrous, uniform deposits as well reproducible and stable dark color. The process delivers more uniform metal distribution while reducing or eliminating high current density burning, TriMac ECLIPSE meets OEM decorative specification |
