Patinal® Chromium

Patinal® Chromium by Merck KGaA, Darmstadt Germany acts as an adhesion promoter on polymers. It is a granular evaporation material. It forms environmentally durable layers and can be used to make first surface mirrors. It provides corrosion protection in the automotive industry, low friction layers (razor blades) and decorative layers.

• It can also be used in metal dielectric combinations to design neutral density filters with enhanced absorption.
• Thin films made from Patinal® Chromium show a reflection of about 60% in the visible spectrum.
• It is suitable for resistive coats and adhesive layers for gold, aluminum and copper in electronics.
