AA-200 Aluminum Anodizing Additive

METALAST AA-200 is a proprietary aluminum anodizing, specialty chemical additive. AA-200 is a combination of organic monomers specially formulated to prevent the processed part from burning during the aluminum anodizing stage. Typically a nickel acetate seal would follow this stage, producing a high quality, uniform oxide and improved throughput. AA-200 is another all product RoHS compliant specialty chemical that meets OSHA regulations and is available to the metal finishing industry. As the patent holder and only chemical supplier of the AA-200, METALAST is pleased to offer the next generation of aluminum anodizing additives to the metal finishing industry.
