MacDermid – Market Driven Coatings for the Consumer
Electronics Industry
Performance
Market Driven
Innovation
Our innovative products do not compromise on performance.
Many of our new coatings offer higher performance than
non-compliant finishes. For example trivalent passivates give
improved resistance to white rust and electroless nickels can
offer higher specular gloss levels.
• Electroless Nickel – RoHS compliant systems
• Anti-corrosion – Cobalt-free, trivalent chromium passivation
• Fashion Finishes – Dark Satin Chromium
• Conversion Coatings – Chromium-free
Our primary market drivers are based on meeting both
environmental directives such as RoHS / WEEE and new
cosmetic finishes including satin and darker metallic coatings

The Consumer Electronics Industry Demands Coatings
Free of Heavy Metals and Carcinogenic Compounds
Hazardous and toxic materials such as hexavalent chromium,
cadmium and lead are prohibited by RoHS and WEEE
Which technology does MacDermid offer for replacing
hazardous and toxic materials?
New coatings must meet these new directives and
legislation and offer improved performance

Hazardous and toxic materials such as hexavalent chromium,
cadmium and lead are prohibited by RoHS and WEEE
RoHS - The Restriction of the Use of
Certain Hazardous Substances in
Electrical and Electronic Equipment
Directive (2011/65/EU) bans the
placing on the EU market of new
equipment containing more than the
agreed levels of lead, cadmium,
mercury and hexavalent chromium.
WEEE - Recycling is a specialist
part of the waste and recycling
industry. It is a rapidly growing sub-
sector due largely to the
implementation of the original WEEE
Directive 2006.

New coatings must meet these new directives and
legislation and offer improved performance
Average life for consumer white goods is around 5 years.
During this time the coatings resist corrosion and wear.
This enables to components to maintain electrical
conductivity and retain their ‘show room’ look and style
even in the humid kitchen environment.
Small consumer electronics generally have a life span of 2
– 3 years. The electrical components must continue to
function even when exposed to extremes of temperature
and wear and tear due to daily life.
