Engineering Coatings Applications Course

Natalia Stephen, CEO of Compound Metal Coatings Inc. and CFO of PVD Advanced Technologies Inc. is offering a basic course for engineering coatings applications.


The course has been specifically created for designer engineers, to give an overall understanding of the types of functional coatings that are available. The areas that will be covered include coating properties, applications, benefits and limitations.

This course is offered in both full day, and half day formats and can be adjusted per industry and special interests.

The course is structured as follows:
Ø Electroplating:
· Basic principles of electroplating- electrolysis and Faraday Laws
· Applications
· Pretreatment - Cleaning cycles

Ø Sacrificial Coatings – Deposit Properties and Applications:
· Zinc and Zinc Alloys
· Cadmium
· Chromate conversion coatings

Ø Engineering Coatings: deposit properties, comparison, applications

Ø Anodizing of Aluminum

Ø Electroless and Immersion Process:
· Electroless Copper
· Electroless Nickel
· Electroless Nickel Composites: Ni Teflon, Ni Boron Nitride, Ni Diamond, NI Silicon Carbide
· Hard Chrome and Composites
· Plasma Spray
· PVD and CVD Coating, definitions and applications. Including: Titanium Nitride, Chromium

Nitride, Zirconium Nitride, and more.
· Design – Basic Rules
