Metallographic Examination of the Corrosion Mechanism of Plated Plastic 690095

Since 1963, the Ford Motor Co. has conducted various corrosion tests on plated plastic.

It was found that corrosion penetration through the nickel deposit, with either the single or dual systems, was significantly reduced with Dur-Ni nickel.
