: Chemical nickel

Chemical Nickel is a technical deposit composed of nickel (Ni) and phosphorus (P = 9 to 12%) using an autocatalytic process that produces a completely uniform layer that is also highly precise and free of tipping.

Chemical Nickel PTFE, a treatment based on chemical nickel, includes PTFE, whose tribological characteristics are particularly improved while maintaining excellent resistance to corrosion and wear.
An alternative approach to addressing wear and friction is to incorporate a lubricant, PTFE, into the nickel-phosphorus combination.

The wear and friction properties of the layer are determined by the added value of the properties of the two materials.

Hardness and lubrication are achieved by the nickel-phosphorus combination, and the low coefficient of friction is achieved by the PTFE particles.

During the deposition process, PTFE particles, which have a diameter of 0.2 to 0.3 microns, are homogeneously deposited in the nickel-phosphorus in a proportion of +/- 30%.
