Alodine and Iridite are registered trademarks for a process also known as Chromate Conversion. This is a chemical treatment process for aluminum which provides corrosion protection as well as surface preparation for paint and adhesives. Chromate is a superior treatment which enhances bonding ability, making it an excellent base for adhesives or paint. It is also used widely for electronics as it enhances corrosion resistance while remaining electrically conductive.
