Ngokuqhelekileyo, i-chromium ineempawu zeekhemikhali ezizinzileyo kwaye ayisebenzi kunye ne-organic acids, i-sulfides, okanye i-alkalis. Ke ngoko, i-chromium plating inokuthintela ukubola, iphucule ukunganyangeki, kwaye isebenze njengomaleko okhuselayo.

Ukongeza, umaleko we-chrome unomphezulu ophezulu wokugqitywa kwaye usetyenziswa ngokuqhelekileyo njengezinto zokuhombisa, ezifana nezixhobo zemoto, izinto zangaphakathi, iindawo zokuhombisa, kunye nezinye izinto ezineemfuno zembonakalo.

Inkqubo yokucwenga kwechromium ibandakanya amanqanaba amahlanu asisiseko:
Inqanaba lokuqala kukukhupha amafutha. Sebenzisa iikhemikhali ukususa igrisi kwiindawo zetsimbi ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuba akukho zixhobo kumphezulu ezichaphazela i-electroplating.
Inqanaba lesibini kukucoca. Ukucoca ngokucokisekileyo umphezulu kunceda ukususa ukungcola kunye neentsalela, ezifana neencinci ezincinci zothuli.
Kwinqanaba lesithathu, isinyithi esingaphantsi (esicwecwe) kufuneka siphathwe ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuba ubuso besinyithi bube bushelelezi ngokusemandleni, ngaloo ndlela buqinisekisa ukuba i-coating igcina ingqibelelo ephezulu ixesha elide. Iindlela ezisetyenziswa ngokuqhelekileyo ziquka i-copper plating, i-nickel plating, kunye ne-chromium plating.
Kwinqanaba lesine, isinyithi sifakwe kwisitya esinesisombululo sonyango lwangaphambili kwaye ngokuthe ngcembe sifudunyezwe kwiqondo lokushisa elifanelekileyo ukuqalisa i-chromium plating.
Inqanaba lesihlanu kunye nelokugqibela, inkqubo ye-electroplating iqala, kwaye isisombululo kwisitya sisisombululo esixubileyo se-chromium equlethe iikhompawundi, ezivumela ukuba iikhompawundi zifakwe kwi-metal surface (ngokusebenzisa i-electrochemical reactions). Ubukhulu bengubo buxhomekeke kwixesha elihlala isinyithi kwisitya.
Iindidi eziqhelekileyo zokubeka i-chromium zibandakanya: i-chromium ekhanyayo, i-matte chromium plating, i-chromium enzima, njl.
Xa ilungiselelwe ngokwemigangatho yoshishino lwangoku, i-coating ye-chrome inokumelana nokuvezwa kwexesha elide emoyeni. I-metal bumper emotweni ngumzekelo omhle we-electroplating, engasetyenziselwa amashumi eminyaka kunye nokugcinwa ngokubanzi kuphela. Ngokukwanjalo, iifaucets kunye nezinye iimveliso ezifakwe kwi-chrome inokuqinisekisa inkangeleko egudileyo yexesha elide ngelixa iqinisekisa ukuqina kwexesha elide. Ke ngoko, ukucwenga kwechromium yenye yezona nkqubo zixhaphakileyo zonyango lomphezulu wesinyithi.
