The application of colored stainless steel plates is becoming increasingly widespread. Chinese colored stainless steel not only has the unique luster and strength of metals, but also has a colorful and long-lasting color. Colored stainless steel plate not only maintains the physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of primary stainless steel, but also has stronger corrosion resistance than primary stainless steel.
1. Brief introduction
In recent years, colored stainless steel plates have been increasingly widely used due to their uniqueness. Nowadays, colored stainless steel products are widely used for decoration on buildings abroad, and colored stainless steel plates have become popular. Chinese colored stainless steel not only has the unique luster and strength of metals, but also has a colorful and long-lasting color. Colored stainless steel plate not only maintains the physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of primary stainless steel, but also has stronger corrosion resistance than primary stainless steel. Therefore, since its emergence in the 1970s, it has been widely used in fields such as building materials, chemicals, automobiles, electronics, and arts and crafts.
Austenitic stainless steel is the most suitable coloring material among commonly used primary stainless steels, which can achieve a satisfactory colored appearance. Ferritic stainless steel, due to the increased possibility of corrosion in coloring solutions, does not produce bright colors as the former. However, low chromium high carbon martensitic stainless steel, due to its poorer corrosion resistance, can only achieve a dull color or black surface. According to reports, austenitic stainless steel, after being colored by low-temperature surface oxidation treatment, remains unchanged in color and luster after being exposed to industrial atmosphere for 6 years, oceanic atmosphere for 1 and a half years, soaking in boiling water for 28 days, or heated to around 300 . In addition, it can also withstand general molding, drawing and bending processes, as well as work hardening. WiQ Industrial Design Currently in China, colored stainless steel can be used not only for decorating the exterior walls and window frames of buildings, but also in many other fields. For example, black stainless steel plates can be used to make solar collectors, with a selective heat absorption rate of 91% to 93%. In the field of arts and crafts, the combination of colored stainless steel and printing can be achieved through a combination of etching, grinding, and dot printing techniques to produce timeless three-dimensional relief murals, hanging screens, and more. In addition, using colored stainless steel to manufacture household appliances, cookware, kitchen equipment, and bathroom utensils will be highly favored by consumers.
Nowadays, colored stainless steel plates have brilliant colors and are a very good decorative material. Colored stainless steel plates also have strong corrosion resistance, high mechanical properties, long-lasting color surface layer, and color tone changes with different lighting angles. Colored stainless steel plates can withstand temperatures of 200 and have better salt spray corrosion resistance than ordinary stainless steel. The wear resistance and scratch resistance of colored stainless steel plates are equivalent to the performance of gold coating on foil layers. When bent at 90 , the colored layer of colored stainless steel plate will not be damaged and can be used for decoration purposes such as hall wall panels, ceilings, elevator wing panels, car box panels, building decorations, signs, etc. Colored stainless steel plate is generally used for wall decoration.
Some commercial buildings are now using this colored stainless steel plate.
Colored stainless steel plates have become a beautiful cluster in the stainless steel series; Professional production of colored stainless steel vacuum coated titanium plates, with a complete range of colors including gold, champagne gold, black gold, gun black, silver white, silver gray, antique copper, bronze, rose gold, purple gold, coffee gold, gemstone blue, seven color, brown, etc. The titanium plate material is stainless steel 201202304, etc; Surface 8K, 2B, BA, brushed, No.3, No.4; Stainless steel plates, BA plates, 8K mirror plates, titanium plates, frosted plates, etched flower plates, embossed plates, etc,
2. Why are colored stainless steel plates so popular
(1) A new process called fingerprint free treatment technology can be used on the surface of colored stainless steel plates. This technology mainly uses nano layer technology to form a very thin and strong protective layer on the surface of colored stainless steel plates. Because it can prevent fingerprints from being left by human fingers after touching, it is also called a fingerprint free colored stainless steel plate The fingerprint free processing technology can be applied to colored stainless steel mirror panels, brushed plates, frosted plates, etched plates, and other materials to achieve a fingerprint free effect, which can effectively enhance the anti rust function
(2) Colored stainless steel plate has strong formability, which changes the rigid installation defects of wooden materials. As a metal material, it also has better flame retardancy, mold resistance, corrosion resistance, moisture resistance, green environmental protection and other advantages And the color is processed through vacuum ion electroplating, with a rich and strong color layer on the surface, especially for brushed or frosted boards, which have better wear resistance than other surface texture states
(3) Colored stainless steel plates have changed the weak feeling that wooden boards give people, and are more sturdy and increase the anti sinking performance of product flooring compared to wooden materials
(4) Materials such as stone and wood are relatively prone to mold or weathering when exposed to water in the kitchen for a long time, and other metal materials are not suitable for kitchen decoration in humid environments. Therefore, colored stainless steel metal is far more suitable for cabinet decoration than other materials However, there are also differences in the quality of this metal material. Generally, stainless steel plates made of 201 and 304 materials are commonly used, but 304 materials have stronger rust resistance
3. Classification
Classified by process
A. Electroplating
Electroplating: The process of using electrolysis to attach a layer of metal film to the surface of metal or other material components. It can prevent corrosion, improve wear resistance, conductivity, reflectivity, and enhance aesthetics.
B. Water plating
The process method of forming a metal coating by continuously reducing metal ions on a self catalytic surface in an aqueous solution through chemical reduction reactions using a reducing agent in the plating solution, without relying on an external power source.
C. Fluorocarbon paint
Refers to coatings with fluororesin as the main film-forming substance; Also known as fluorocarbon paint, fluorocarbon coating, fluororesin coating
D. Spray painting
Spray the paint into a mist using compressed air to form different colors on the stainless steel plate.
Classified by surface effect
Colored stainless steel mirror panel
8K board, also known as mirror panel, is polished on a stainless steel surface using a polishing device with abrasive solution to make the surface shine like a mirror, and then electroplated and colored
Colored stainless steel brushed plate
Pull tab (LH), also known as hairline, because the pattern is like a thin and straight hair. Its surface has a filamentous texture, which is a processing technique for stainless steel. The surface is matte, with a slight texture upon closer inspection, but it cannot be felt. It is more wear-resistant than ordinary shiny stainless steel and looks more upscale. There are various patterns on the hair pattern board, including hairline (HL), snowflake sand pattern (NO4), herringbone pattern (random pattern), cross pattern, cross pattern, etc. All patterns are processed by an oil polishing hair pattern machine according to requirements, and then electroplated and colored
Colored stainless steel sandblasting plate
The sandblasting board is processed with zirconium beads on the stainless steel surface through mechanical equipment, resulting in a fine bead like sand surface and a unique decorative effect. Then electroplating and coloring
