'Chemical Vapor
Deposition'
- First developed for the
aerospace industry, we employ this unique process of applying boride
coatings on metals to create a surface hardness second only to
diamonds.
- We use a high temperature
process to create a chemical reaction between borides and metals
that form a coating ranging in thickness from .0004" to
.015".

-
The diffusion process leading
to saturation of metal surfaces with boron are similar to other
fairly well
known processes such as carburizing, nitriding, siliciding,
chromizing, etc.
- The principle use of boron in
metallurgy is for the production of heat resistance and chemically
resistant stable bodies.
- The principle use of boron in
metallurgy is for the production of heat resistance and
chemically resistant stable bodies.
-
Our process gives us the
unique capability to apply the coating to inside and outside
surfaces of a component.
- We have the ability to coat parts ranging from less
than an inch to around ten feet long.
