What are the differences between electroplating, vacuum plating, ion plating and spray plating?

Post time: Jul-06-2023

Electroplating is the process of using the principle of electrolysis to plate a thin layer of other metals or alloys on some metal surfaces, which is the process of using electrolysis to attach a layer of metal film to the surface of metal or other materials to prevent metal oxidation (such as rust), improve wear resistance, electrical conductivity, reflective property, corrosion resistance (copper sulfate, etc.) and improve beauty.

Vacuum plating mainly includes vacuum evaporation plating, sputtering plating and ion plating, they are the use of vacuum conditions, through distillation or sputtering and other ways on the surface of plastic parts deposited a variety of metal and non-metal film, through this way can get a very thin surface coating, while having the outstanding advantages of fast adhesion, but the cost is also high, mainly processed in stainless steel metal surface.
 
Ion plating is a kind of vacuum plating, is the use of gas discharge to partially ionize the gas or evaporated substance, and under the bombardment of gas ions or evaporated substance ions, the evaporated substance or its reactants deposited on the substrate method. Because the effect of ion plating is more smooth and glossy, it is widely used in the water cup industry.
 
The simple comparison is that electroplating processing costs are low, but it is not environmentally friendly. Vacuum plating, especially vacuum ion plating, has good processing effect, but the cost is relatively high, and the environmental protection of spraying is good, but due to the influence of conditions, the spraying effect is not the best.
 
A simple comparison is that electroplating is a low cost process, but not environmentally friendly. Vacuum plating, especially vacuum ion plating, is good but relatively costly, and spray plating is environmentally friendly but not the best due to the conditions.
