CarboNip is a new coating for metals protected by the international patent no. A136854. It is made from 98% Nickel with 14% Phosphorus and from 36% by volume of boron carbide with controlled particle size, embedded in a nickel-phosphorus matrix, and deposited electrolytically.
Thanks to its high wear resistance and excellent resistance to corrosion, is an important innovation in the industrial field, a valid alternative to hard chrome plating, to the coatings both for a traditional composite nickel-silicon carbide, and in relation to tungsten carbide spray coatings, for the coating ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
