Binary alloys consist of two metals that are applied at the same time (zinc-nickel, gold-cobalt, palladium-nickel etc.), ternary alloys consist of three metals instead (Au-Cu-Cd, Cu-Zn-Sn, etc. .). Controlled process parameters allow the application of a defined composition and with specific properties. Collini offers different alloys in galvanization: DUOR® is a binary alloy of hard gold with 2% cobalt and is widely used as a contact material in the electronics industry. GALVATRONIC® is a ternary gold-copper-cadmium alloy with exceptional properties such as high hardness and wear resistance combined with an extensibility of up to 5%. OPTALLOY® is another ternary copper-tin-zinc alloy, a so-called “White Bronze”, which combines the functional properties of silver, tin, tin-nickel, nickel-phosphorus and chromium. The alloy has a similar color to steel, is nickel-free, non-magnetic and does not change the appearance under environmental influences. composites Composite is a material that consists of two or more materials and that can be deposited via galvanization. For example PTFE particles can be incorporated into a chemical nickel layer, becoming a so-called Ni-PTFE coating with excellent properties such as wear and corrosion resistance. Skintech®, a surface (Composite Coating) with nickel-phosphorus as a hard base and galvanic surfaces, offers various possibilities of realization. Tribological requirements such as contact corrosion, fretting, a low and stable coefficient of friction, high corrosion protection and decorative and electrical properties can be adapted according to specific requirements.
