PVD - an Eco-friendly Alternative to Electroplating
Plastic surface metallization is one of the most important processes in surface treatment of auto parts. The most common process is electroplating process, which can achieve high metal texture and excellent aging protection performance.
However, due to its high pollution, electroplating process has been widely restricted in Europe, China and other parts of the world in recent years, the production line is gradually shut down, and prohibition regulations have been issued.
PVD process is more and more favored by the market because of its decorative and wave penetrable functions. With the deepening of technology maturity and industrialization process, it has the potential to completely replace electroplating.
