Oxidation and oil spraying are common surface treatment processes when making prototype models. Oil spraying is to spray a layer of paint on the surface of the prototype. As long as the customer provides the corresponding Pantone color number, the prototype manufacturer can spray the corresponding color on the surface of the prototype. Oxidation is to immerse the aluminum alloy prototype in the potion, let the potion corrode into the aluminum alloy prototype, and cause it to undergo an oxidation reaction, thereby changing the color of the aluminum alloy prototype. Although both oxidation and oil spraying make the surface of the rapid prototype colorful, there are still differences between them. Next, the Xiehe rapid prototype processing manufacturer will briefly introduce it for you.

Mainly reflected in the following two aspects:

1. For different materials, oil injection can be applied to many materials for making prototypes - metal, plastic and resin, while oxidation is a process only available for aluminum alloy prototypes.

2. The durability of the color is different. Because the oil spray is only to spray a layer of paint on the surface of the rapid prototype it will fall off as time goes by, and the oxidation is to soak the aluminum alloy rapid prototype in the liquid medicine to form an oxide film on the surface. Since the alumina produced by oxidation is a stable substance, it is difficult to react with the oxidation in the air, so the color of the surface is relatively stable and not easy to fall off.

3. The effect is different. The oxidized color has a metallic texture, which looks high-end and elegant. If you use oil injection, you can’t achieve that effect anyway. It is already very good that the color of the oil injection can achieve 80% similarity with the oxidized color.

The above content is the difference between prototype processing oxidation and oil injection, hoping to increase everyone's understanding of prototype processing.
