The common surface treatment methods of aluminum tile corner strips include anodizing, powder spraying, electroplating, etc., and different treatment methods have different effects on their quality in terms of corrosion resistance, wear resistance, decoration, etc.
Anodizing
Enhanced corrosion resistance: Through anodizing, a hard and dense oxide film is formed on the surface of the aluminum tile corner strips. This oxide film can. In order to effectively isolate the contact between air, moisture and other corrosive substances and the aluminum matrix, the corrosion resistance of the corner strip is greatly improved, so that it can be used for a long time in a humid environment (such as bathroom, kitchen) without being easy to rust and corrode.
Improved wear resistance: The oxide film has high hardness, which can enhance the wear resistance of the surface of the corner strip, resist the scratch and collision that may occur in daily use, reduce surface wear, and maintain the integrity and aesthetics of the corner strip.
Stable color: anodizing can make the corner strip obtain a variety of colors, and the color is uniform and natural, with good weather resistance and color retention. In the long. During the use of the period, it is not easy to fade due to factors such as sunlight and temperature changes, and can always maintain bright color, providing a lasting decorative effect for the ceramic tile decoration effect.
Powder coating
Good protection performance: powder coating forms a thick coating on the surface of the aluminum corner strip, which can effectively block the external corrosive medium and has good corrosion resistance. At the same time, the coating has a certain degree of flexibility and impact resistance, which can cushion the impact force of the outside world to a certain extent, and reduce the possibility of deformation and damage caused by collision of corner strips.
Strong decoration: Powder paint has a wealth of colors and surface effects to choose from, such as matte, high-gloss, frosted, etc., which can be customized according to different decoration styles and needs, so that the corners and tiles and the overall decoration environment are better integrated, and the decorative effect is enhanced. Moreover, the surface flatness of the coating without powder coating is high, which can cover up some small defects on the surface of the corner strip and make the appearance of the corner strip more beautiful. Good environmental performance: no organic solvents are used in the process of powder spraying, which reduces the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to the environment and the human body Health is more friendly. At the same time, the utilization rate of powder coating is higher and less waste, which is in line with the modern green decoration concept.
electroplate
Bright appearance: electroplating can form a layer of bright metal plating on the surface of the aluminum corner strip, such as chrome plating, nickel plating, etc., so that the corner strip has a mirror-like 0 luster, which can add a luxurious and high-end atmosphere to the tile decoration. This high-gloss finish is very popular in some decoration styles that pursue a sleek, modern look.
Good abrasion resistance: The electroplating layer has high hardness and finish, which can effectively resist wear and scratches, keep the surface of the corner strip smooth and bright, and it is not easy to appear obvious scratches in daily use, and can maintain good appearance quality for a long time.
Good corrosion resistance: The electroplating layer can isolate the aluminum substrate from the external corrosive environment and provide certain protection. In particular, some metal plating with good corrosion resistance, such as chrome plating, can resist the erosion of humid air, acid and alkali and other substances to a certain extent, and prolong the service life of corner strips. However, compared to anodizing and powder coating, the thickness of the plating layer is relatively thin, and the corrosion resistance in some harsh environments may be slightly weaker.
