vii. Decreasing the environmental impact Standardization of the characteristics of phosphate layers, conversion layers (e.g., based on chrome(III), chrome(VI), zirconium, silanes, titanium, and other elements), and oxide layer coatings formed through chemical reactions on or with the metal and inorganic coatings to enhance the properties of metal and inorganic coatings.
Standardization of post-process and passivation for such coatings
Standardization of testing and inspection methods for such coatings
Standardization of the preparation of the substrates prior to such coating
