Coventya Inc. (Brooklyn Heights, Ohio)  has introduced ENOVA 115 PTFE, a

PFOS, PFOA

PTFE composite coating that meets the PFOS/PFOA free technology and is ROHS compliant.

The ENOVA 115 PTFE process is an electroless nickel-phosphorus plating system that incorporates polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) as occluded particles in a high phosphorus electroless nickel deposit matrix with a capability range from 15–25% by volume PTFE inclusion. This unique process is specially designed to produce a consistent amount of uniformly dispersed PTFE throughout the EN deposit.

ENVOA 115 PTFE deposits are excellent for providing very low friction values, especially in applications where sliding wear is present and the wear mechanism is induced by light, well-distributed loads. The release and anti-stick properties of ENVOA 115 PTFE deposits are excellent, resulting in increased life for tools, molds, dies and other coated surfaces.

    Masking is employed in most any metal finishing operation where only a specifically defined area of the surface of a part must be exposed to a process. Conversely, masking may be employed on a surface where treatment is either not required or must be avoided. This article covers the many aspects of masking for metal finishing, including applications, methods and the various types of masking employed.
