4. Main applications
Ionic deposits are particularly suitable for :
produce highly adhesive metallic deposits on substrates of any shape and nature;
deposit composite materials (especially ceramics).
4.1 Metallizations
In this case, the discharge is carried out in a chemically inert gas, usually argon.
Two types of metallization can be considered:
deposition of one metal on another;
deposition of a metal on an insulator.
For the former, studies show that, whatever the deposit-substrate pair, adhesion is excellent. Industrial applications include aluminum...
