Anodizing Additives

For Type II and Type III Anodizing

Stone Chemical Company offers a full line of cost effective anodizing additives to streamline the anodizing process. Concentrated anodizing additives formulated to prevent the burning of parts during the anodizing operation allow for the operation of the anodizing bath at higher temperatures and current densities. Fume suppressants for the anodizing bath create a safer work environment and may eliminate the need for expensive ventilation equipment. Electrolytically colored parts use Stone Chemical Company AN400L added to the electrolytic color bath for eliminating uneven color distribution on electrolytically colored parts.

AN295L  Fume SuppressantAN295L is a highly concentrated, cost effective fume suppressant used for alkaline environments such as etch bath fuming (AN295L is sometimes used in the anodizing bath). AN295L is designed to be used in very small quantities and is low foaming.
AN350L  Anodizing AdditiveAN350L is a highly concentrated anodizing additive formulated to prevent the burning of parts during the anodizing operation. It allows for the operation of the anodizing bath at higher temperatures and current densities. This accelerates the development of the anodic coating therefore requiring less anodizing time and increasing production output. AN350L is used effectively for both conventional (type II) and hardcoat (type III) anodizing.
AN360L  Anodizing AdditiveAN360L is a highly concentrated anodizing additive formulated to prevent the burning of parts during the anodizing operation using high levels of sulfuric acid (up to 300 grams/liter). AN350L is used effectively for both conventional (type II) and hardcoat (type III) anodizing.
AN400L Electrolytic Coloring AdditiveAN400L is a cost effective additive for eliminating uneven color distribution on electrolytically colored parts. AN400L, added to the electrolytic color bath, compensates for the uneven current density often experienced in this process.
AN900L  Fume SuppressantAN900L is an excellent, cost effective fume suppressant used for both Type II and Type III (hardcoat) acidic anodizing baths. AN900L is designed to be used in very small quantities and is low foaming.
