Alodine® EC2TM ElectroCeramic Coating

ElectroCeramic Alodine EC2
What it is...Alodine® EC2TM is a coating based on Titanium Metal Oxide (TiO2) electrodeposited from the electrical assisted hydrolysis of metal complexes. The TiO2 Coating provides superior corrosion and wear resistance for harsh and demanding applications such as marine and high temperature engine environments.




What we do... The Alodine® EC2TM process available from our Cullman, Alabama facility provides:
  • the largest tank of its kind in the United States
  • the capability of coating aluminum, titanium, and aluminized surfaces
  • wear and corrosion resistant coating
  • chemical, thermal, and wear resistance that is unparalleled in the coating industry


Alodine® EC2TM has exciting potential:
  • A new electrolytic process provides a 3-12 micron thick layer of TiO2
  • Virtually eliminates corrosion
  • Drastically improves wear resistance
  • Enables the use of lower cost materials (e.g., aluminum instead of stainless steel)
  • Excellent bonding capability when combined with Loctite®, Hysol® and Teroson® brand adhesives
  • Provides superior wear, corrosion, and thermal protection over aluminum, titanium, and aluminized surfaces
  • Thousands of times harder and more flexible than paint
  • Impervious to fuel and fuel vapor, powertrain lubricants, oil, and ethylene glycol
  • Withstands temperatures up to 600°C (1112°F) without corrosion performance loss
