Columbia Chemical showcases its innovative TriCOL Reclaim process, which is said to provide cost savings of 40-60% over traditional trivalent systems. The company says the product offers CASS (Copper Accelerated Acetic Acid Salt Spray) at 60 hours, high chloride corrosion at 200+ hours, no post dip, 1000+ hours NSS (neutral salt spray) and L values in the 80s. The process was designed with a unique formulation to enable for total reclamation without the buildup of counterions; it features a single liquid additive, meaning no more heating and no messy chrome dust powder.

Hexavalent-Chromium-Free Aluminum Sacrificial Paint Validation
Hexavalent chromium is a known carcinogen, repro-toxin and mutagen. Its elimination is of high importance to the aerospace industry, which has struggled to find high performing alternatives. Legacy aluminum sacrificial paints have traditionally utilized hexavalent chromium to prevent corrosion and coatings which are equal to or better than have been difficult. This second of two papers discusses the hexavalent-chromium-free process from the user point-of-view in terms of the process validation work by Rolls Royce Corporation.

Calculating Applied Media Force During Vibratory Finishing
What appear to be identically set-up vibratory bowls will finish identical loads of parts in varying time cycles. This paper offers a new technique to better predict what the operator will produce, by measuring the force applied to the parts. It is the efficiency of that force which controls the efficiency and speed of the refinement cycle.
