MIP undertakes chromating services for customers. The extremely thin coatings provided by MIP offer the following benefits when applied on a metal surface:
Enhanced corrosion resistance
Enhanced bonding ability
High electrical conductivity
Being extremely soft coatings, chromates are very easy to scratch when they are wet. As the coating becomes dry, it becomes hard and more abrasion resistant. It has an additional value as a primer for organic coatings, as metals like aluminum are generally difficult to paint or glue. Chromated parts retain their electrical conductivity to varying degrees, depending on coating thickness. The process may be used to add color for decorative or identification ...

MIP is an industry leader in delivering high quality passivating services to a wide range of industries including:
Military
Automotive
Aerospace, and
Electrical Industries
Passivation of stainless steel is a process performed to make a surface passive. This is done by removing exogenous iron or iron compounds from the surface of stainless steel using nitric chemical dissolution. Passivation has the capability to increase the corrosion resistance of stainless surfaces.
The passivation of stainless steel is performed when free iron, rust, iron particles, metal chips or other nonvolatile deposits might adversely affect the metallurgical or sanitary condition or stability of the stainless surface, ...

Typical applications of zinc phosphate include:
Strong rubber to metal bonding
Uniform base for paint adhesion
Used for rust proofing and lubricity
Most efficient when it comes to protecting parts from corrosion resulting from abrasion
The typical process for phosphating will involve the following steps:
MIP offers pickling and oiling services to all parts and components, and serves different industries including:
Military
Automotive
Aerospace, and
Electrical Industries
Pickling is the removal of oxides from the surface of metals by converting them to soluble compounds. The removal of oxides from the surface of metal sheets is pivotal to further process them for extrusion, rolling, painting, galvanizing or plating. Acid treatment is a process, in which the base metal is subjected to mild, moderate or aggressive etching. The pH value of the solution is generally below 2. This process helps to dissolve oxides produced from the machining and manufacturing processes. The acid cleaning also removes scales and ...
MIP offers selective plating services for small and large electrical equipment parts. We meet most of the specifications outlined by manufacturers in all major industries including:
Military
