Black Oxide and Cadmium Plating
Is it possible to put black oxide over cadmium plate? Will the cadmium plate be degraded by the black oxide solution? Will the black oxide solution be degraded by exposure to cadmium?
Q. We have received a request to apply black oxide to a part that also requires cadmium plating. The parts have already been cadmium plated. Is it possible to put black oxide over cadmium plate? Will the cadmium plate be degraded by the black oxide solution? Will the black oxide solution be degraded by exposure to cadmium? P.G.
