1. The difference in production technology Colored zinc is a zinc plate that is surface-treated and then coated with an organic coating such as polyester, phenolic or fluorocarbon to form a colored zinc plate. Nickel plating is to coat the surface of metal copper, steel, etc. with a layer of nickel after multiple steps such as degreasing, pickling, galvanizing,and electroplating. 2. The difference in appearance Colored zinc is sprayed or rolled on zinc plates with organic coatings such as polyester, phenolic or fluorocarbon, so the appearance of colored zinc plates is relatively bright and shiny, and the color can be selected according to customer requirements. Nickel plating has a silver-white nickel layer on the surface, so the appearance is relatively smooth and cool. 3. The difference in corrosion resistance In terms of corrosion resistance, compared with simple and crude zinc plates, colored zinc is less susceptible to corrosion and rust even in humid, rainy and other environments over many years of use. In comparison, nickel plating has enhanced corrosion resistance. Covering the surface with a layer of nickel can make the metal material resistant to acid and alkali corrosion and oxidation, effectively extending the service life of the metal material. To sum up, the differences between colored zinc and nickel plating mainly focus on the production process, appearance and corrosion resistance. Before purchasing, you need to choose according to different specific usage needs.
