* It is very difficult to ensure complete protection of steel from corrosive environment at temperatures as high as 900°F.
* Traditionally used Ni-Cd Coatings involve use of Hexavalent chromium, cadmium and cyanides which are very toxic. Thus, making it difficult to ensure Safety safety of the work environment.
== Cadmium Qualms ==
== Environment Friendly solution ==
* Environmentally An environment-friendly alternative to Ni-Cd coatings.* Eliminates Materials materials of Concern concern from the product such as Cadmiumcadmium, hexavalent chromium and Cyanides cyanides from the plating process.* Offers equivalent or superior protection to the baseline NiCd Ni-Cd coatings.
== The Unique Process ==
== The Value Proposition ==
* Not just an idea but a patented & experimentally proven technology.Pratt&Whitney also has a working prototype of the technology.
* Not very capital intensive, as it utilizes already established processes used for electroplating.
* Environment friendly alternative to Cadmium coatingsA green technology eliminating the use of hazardous cadmium in the coating process.
== Area of Application ==
