ENhanced Z8_

What is RoHS?      Click here to view AnoChem TCP Product Description Electroless nickel plating employing advanced stabilizer and unique buffering technology that eliminates the need for either lead or cadmium Mid-phosphorus composition, typically 7-9% by weight, offering best combination of superior corrosion resistance and excellent wear resistance Appealing metallic luster consistent brilliant appearance throughout the life of the bath Ultra-smooth deposit with consistently low coefficient of friction Can be thermally treated to increase hardness of the nickel phosphorus alloy to an equivalent hardness of 60-65 Rockwell C Typical Physical Properties Composition Nickel:   93-91% Phosphorus:   7-9% Cadmium:   0 ppm Lead:   0 ppm Appearance Shiny metallic luster Density 8.0 - 8.2 grams/cm2 Microhardness 550 HVN100 As-deposited 900 HVN100 Heat-Treated Electrical Resistivity 70 - 100 micro-ohm/cm Magnetic Properties slightly magnetic as plated Melting Point 880 - 1100˚C Ductility Passes ASTM B-489 Wear Resistance 16 - 20 TWI As-deposited 10 - 12 TWI Heat Treated TWI = Taber Wear Indiex mg / 1000 cycles using CS-10 wheels RoHS and WEEE Legislation prohibits lead, cadmium, mercury and hexavalent chromium from use in electrical and electronic equipment with very few exceptions. ELV Legislation prohibits the use of any level or lead or cadmium intentionally added in elctroless nickel specified by automotive manufacturers worldwide due to its unmatched corrosion and wear resistance. Summary Anoplate's ENhanced Z8 offers all the advantages of electroless nickel to manufacturers without concern over compliance to stringent environmental regulations (e.g. RoHS, WEEEE, ELV) that restrict or ban the presence of lead or cadmium typically found in the majority of electroless nickel deposits. With an internationally accredited ISO 14001 Environmental Management System, Anoplate is committed to routinely reducing its environmental impact - Anoplate's ENhanced Z8 is the product of that commitment.
