![]() ![]() The consultation lasts for 8 weeks (unless otherwise specified) and closes at 23:59 London time (BST).The global market size of dichromium tris(chromate) is $XX million in 2018 with XX CAGR from 2014 to 2018, and it is expected to reach $XX million by the end of 2024 with a CAGR of XX% from 2019 to 2024. If you want to include confidential information in your submission, please additionally complete a “confidential version” and submit both versions as attachments. A “public version” should always be completed and will be published after the consultation has closed. Provide some basic information on possible alternative(s) in the online survey below but more detailed information should be provided in document(s) prepared using the commenting templates in the related section below. Review period requested: 12 years How to submit comments Up to 1 tonne/year (Dichromium tris(chromate)).Up to 6 tonnes/year (potassium dichromate).Up to 7 tonnes/year (sodium dichromate).Up to 30 tonnes/year (chromium trioxide).Technical Function: Corrosion resistance including active corrosion inhibition ("self-healing") Chemical resistance Adhesion promotion Temperature resistance Layer thickness Electrical resistivity.Article Category related to subsequent service life (AC): N/A.Product category (PC): 14- Metal surface treatment products.Process category (PROC): PROC 0, PROC 5, PROC 8b, PROC 9, PROC 10, PROC 13, PROC 15, PROC 21, PROC 24, PROC 28.Environmental release category (ERC): 5.Sector of end use (SU): Other: Aerospace and defence industry and its supply chains.This “applied for use” involves the continued use of Chromium trioxide, Sodium dichromate, Potassium dichromate and Dichromium tris(chromate) across approximately 80 sites across Great Britain (GB). Due to the complexity of design challenges, performance requirements, safety requirements and regulatory controls that must be tested for each listed alternative, and the need for industrial implementation in the whole supply chain, the applicant is seeking a review period of 12 years. The applicants have identified a shortlist of potentially suitable alternatives. Impact on fatigue life is also considered when assessing test candidates for Cr(VI) for conversion coating, as well as pre-treatment compatibility and the ability to visually determine that the conversion coating has been appropriately and uniformly applied (inspectability). These functions are relevant to all four chromates, and their use across all applications methods, e.g., immersion versus brush/swab and touch-up. ![]() The key functions of the four chromates in CCC include: Corrosion resistance including active corrosion inhibition ("self-healing"), chemical resistance, adhesion promotion, temperature resistance, layer thickness, and electrical resistivity. The coatings are typically in the lower thickness range (below 0.5 μm). Typical thickness of the coatings is 0.05-2.00 μm. In general, conversion coating forms an adherent, fixed, insoluble, inorganic crystalline or amorphous surface film of complexes from oxides and hydroxides and chromium trioxide as an integral part of the metal surface by means of a chemical reaction between the metal surface and the immersion solution. We define conversion coating as “a chemical process that introduces a chemical coating or changes the surface of the substrate to improve the substrate properties (e.g., corrosion resistance or to promote adhesion of subsequent coatings).” Note that the conversion coating layer itself is not corrosion resistant, but it provides improved corrosion resistance to the substrate. Conversion coating removes the native oxide and replaces it with an oxide that has predictable and stable properties, formed from the substrate metal and the processing solution. The term “chemical conversion coating” is used for both the process and the resulting coating layer. Proposed use: Chemical conversion coating using chromium trioxide, sodium dichromate, potassium dichromate, and/or dichromium tris(chromate) in aerospace and defence industry and its supply chains.īroad information on use applied for (conditions of use and function):Ĭhemical conversion coating (CCC) is a chemical process applied to a substrate producing a superficial layer containing a compound of the substrate metal and elements from the processing solution.
