Sustainable Approaches to Zinc Nickel on Electrical Vehicles
Key performance characteristics of zinc-nickel alloy are directly applicable to EV steel battery housing components and their requirements.
This paper is based on a presentation originally given at SUR/FIN 2025 in Rosemont, Illinois, on June 3, 2025, in “Session 5: Corrosion Control in Automotive II.”
The presentation discusses the use of rack alkaline zinc-nickel for electric vehicle (EV) battery boxes and the membrane anodes associated with the process. The battery box is a major component of EVs. As zinc-nickel is increasingly employed for this type of finishing, the use of rack zinc-nickel plating operations and high-efficiency options become increasingly desired for sustainability.
