REACH Regulation
REACH is a regulation of the European
Union, adopted to improve the protection of
human health and the environment from
the risks that can be posed by chemicals,
while enhancing the competitiveness of the
EU chemicals industry. It also promotes
alternative methods for the hazard
assessment of substances in order to
reduce the number of tests on animals.
The European Chemicals
Agency (ECHA) is the driving
force among regulatory
authorities in implementing the
EU's groundbreaking chemicals
legislation.

Surface treatments based on chromium (VI) have unique technical
functions that confer:
- Outstanding corrosion protection and prevention for the used
metals under a wide range of conditions.
- Active corrosion inhibition (self-healing, e.g. Repaiting a local
scratch on the surface).
- Excellent adhesion properties to support application of subsequent
coatings or paints.
- Excellent chemical and electrical resistivity
- Extensive experience on dealing with corrosion problemas related
to these treatments
- Excellent wear and abrasion properties combined wiht hardness
- Low coefficient of friction
- Adequate layer thickness
- Ability to maintain lubrication due to micro-cracking

There is no 1-to-1 replacement solution. The ideal solution for the future:
Hard Cr(III) electrolytic, where the challenge is to stabilize/control the crack
formation due to organic species.
Several alternatives have been qualified over the years, depending on
specific part requirements, i.e. Cr2O3 plasma or WCCo HVOF. The latest
one is hardened NiP.
Chromium Trioxide
Improvements/challenge for REACH-compliant
alternatives:
Fatigue behaviour
Cracking /porosity control
Total Cr-free process. Production of Cr(III) containing
substances involves potential exposure to Cr(VI). Cr
(III) may contain Cr(VI) traces and it is generate at
anodes during the electrolytic processes.
