Cer-met coatings

Cer-met is the name given to any material that combines ceramic and metal to create a hardy and strong coating.

In fact, the metal/alloy material is designated as the binding component while the ceramic elements create the desired hardness, protecting your item from being easily damaged.

When choosing the best ingredients for your cer-met coating you simply need to decide which metal and ceramic are best suited to your needs and the needs of your product.

Factors That Affect Cer-Met Coatings

The most commonly used metals are chrome, nickel and cobalt. These are known as binder metals and are generally less than 20% of the cer-met.

There are several factors that affect the performance of a cer-met coating:

• Size of particles involved – the larger the less adhesive they
• Your choice of cer-met ingredients
• The mixture ratio

Getting the balance right is essential to ensure the coating has durability and does the job for which it is intended. That’s why it’s best to contact a professional, such as Zocca Coatings and have them deal with the matter for you. You’ll struggle to find a better option.

• Anti-wear coatings
• Coatings for aggressive environments
