LIGHT METAL SURFACE FINISHING - 2011

Hexavalent chromium free-coating solutions:
Reviews for process development and technology demonstration.
6 - 7th December 2011 PARIS - SAGEM 2nd

Finding substitutes for hexavalent chromium

Finding substitutes for hexavalent chromium is a global environmental challenge. In 2009, at the first conference, we reviewed the solutions emerging, both at laboratory level and those already undergoing industrial applications.

To answer these questions, a special conference has been arranged, bringing together a number of major players, to review the latest developments and, via discussions and round-tables sessions, to identify the main trends emerging for the future.
