What’s metallization?

Metallization is the process of applying a metal coating to non-metallic objects. The first attempt was in the 19th century by Justus von Liebig, who developed a way to bind silver to glass. The process involves preparing the object for conductivity, acid etching, and immersion in chemical baths. Thermal spray metallization is another technique used […]

What’s metallization?

Metallization is the process of applying a metal coating to a non-metallic object. It involves preparing the object to increase its conductivity, then applying a thin layer of metal. The first metallization was done by Justus von Liebig to create silver mirrors. Modern metallization can be done on any material, including plastics and ceramics. Thermal […]

What’s Vacuum Metallization?

Vacuum metallizing is a physical process that produces a thin, uniform metallic coating on various materials, including plastic, glass, metal, and paper. The process involves vaporizing a metal plating material in a vacuum chamber, which then condenses on a workpiece to create a decorative or functional finish. The type of workpiece and coating material used […]
