Iron Phosphate

Overview

Iron phosphate is the most preferred form of conversion coating for the surface treatment and finishing of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. This is due to the low cost, speed of operations, and the ability to afford excellent corrosion resistances, wear resistance, adhesion, and lubricative properties. The application is the result of phosphate salts dissolved in a phosphoric acid solution chemically reacting with the surface of the part to form an insoluble, crystalline phosphate.

Key Performance Properties of Iron Phosphate:

• Increased corrosion resistance
• Low application cost
• Lubricative properties
• Increased adhesion
