Inorganic coatings encompass "surface conversion, enameling, metallic coatings, anodizing, and more". These coatings are created through a chemical action that changes the surface layer of metal into a metallic oxide film or compound to reduce corrosion. The treatments change the immediate surface layer of metal into a film of metallic oxide or compound which has better corrosion resistance than the natural oxide film and provides an effective base or key for supplementary protection such as paints. It is mostly used in automotive, electrical and electronics, industrial, hardware, defense.
