Metallic and other inorganic coatings - Surface treatment, metallic and other inorganic coatings - Vocabulary (ISO 2080:2022)

This International Standard describes general types of surface-finishing processes and provides a vocabulary that defines terms related to these processes. Emphasis is placed on practical usage in surface-finishing technology in the metal-finishing field. The vocabulary does not include definitions and terms for porcelain and vitreous enamel, thermally sprayed coatings and hot-dip galvanizing for which specialized vocabularies and glossaries exist or are in preparation. For the most part, basic terms that have the same meaning in surface finishing as in other fields of technology, and that are defined in handbooks and dictionaries of chemistry and physics, are not included.

Metallische und andere anorganische Überzüge - Oberflächenbehandlung, metallische und andere anorganische Überzüge - Wörterbuch (ISO 2080:2022)

Diese Internationale Norm beschreibt die allgemei¬nen Arten der Oberflächen¬be-handlungen und bietet ein Wörterver¬zeichnis, das Benen¬nungen für die bei der Oberflächenbehand¬lung angewendeten Verfahren definiert. Der Schwer¬punkt liegt auf dem praktischen Nutzen für die Ober-flächentechnik im Bereich der Ober¬flächen-veredlung von Metallen. Das Wörterver¬zeichnis erfasst keine Begriffe für Emaillierungen, thermisch gespritzte Schichten und für das Feuerverzinken, für die eigene Wörterver¬zeich-nisse und Glossare bestehen oder in Vorbereitung sind. Grundlegende Benennungen sind meist nicht aufgenommen worden, wenn sie in der Ober¬flächenveredlung dieselbe Bedeutung wie in anderen Bereichen der Technik haben und in Hand- und Wörterbüchern der Chemie oder Physik definiert werden.

Revêtements métalliques et autres revêtements inorganiques - Traitement de surface, revêtements métalliques et autres revêtements inorganiques - Vocabulaire (ISO 2080:2022)

Le présent document définit les termes se rapportant aux types généraux de procédés de traitement de surface. L’accent est mis sur l’utilisation pratique, en technologie de finition de surface, dans le domaine de la finition des métaux.
Le présent document n’inclut pas les termes relatifs à la porcelaine, à l’émail vitrifié, aux revêtements projetés thermiquement et à la galvanisation, pour lesquels des vocabulaires et glossaires spécialisés existent déjà. Le plus souvent, les termes fondamentaux possédant la même signification dans le domaine du traitement de surface que dans d’autres domaines de technologie, et qui sont définis dans des manuels et des dictionnaires de chimie et de physique, ne sont pas inclus ici.

Kovinske in druge anorganske prevleke - Površinska obdelava kovinskih in drugih anorganskih prevlek - Slovar (ISO 2080:2022)

Ta mednarodni standard opisuje splošne vrste postopkov površinske obdelave in podaja slovar z opredelitvijo izrazov v zvezi s temi postopki. Poudarek je na praktični uporabi tehnologije za površinsko obdelavo na področju zaključne obdelave kovin. Slovar ne vključuje definicij in izrazov za porcelan in steklasti emajl ter vroče brizgane in vroče galvanizirane prevleke, za katere obstajajo oziroma so v pripravi specializirani slovarji in glosarji. Večina osnovnih izrazov, ki imajo enak pomen tako na področju površinske obdelave kot tudi na drugih tehnoloških področjih ter so opredeljeni v priročnikih in slovarjih s področja kemije in fizike, ni vključenih.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

Introduction
The terms and definitions in this International Standard (a combined revision of ISO 2079 and ISO 2080)
apply to electroplating and other related surface-finishing processes. The terms and definitions are
not necessarily arranged in English alphabetical order. Related terms, giving different alternatives
for a given process, have been grouped under a leading term, as, for example, in the case of “chemical
plating”, “electrodeposition”, “blasting”, “cleaning” or “colour anodising”.
Basic terms and definitions relating to corrosion and electrochemical techniques used in corrosion
science are given in ISO 8044 and are not included. Basic terms used in chemistry, electrochemistry or
physics are also not included in this International Standard. The definitions for such terms can be found
in handbooks or dictionaries of chemistry or physics.

Metallic and other inorganic coatings — Surface treatment,
metallic and other inorganic coatings — Vocabulary
1 Scope
This International Standard describes general types of surface-finishing processes and provides
a vocabulary that defines terms related to these processes. Emphasis is placed on practical usage in
surface-finishing technology in the metal-finishing field. The vocabulary does not include definitions
and terms for porcelain and vitreous enamel, thermally sprayed coatings and hot-dip galvanizing for
which specialized vocabularies and glossaries exist or are in preparation. For the most part, basic terms
that have the same meaning in surface finishing as in other fields of technology, and that are defined in
handbooks and dictionaries of chemistry and physics, are not included.
2 Normative references
There are no normative references in this document.
3 Terms and definitions
No terms and definitions are listed in this document.

subsequent electroplating (4.6) operations, due to the application of excess current or to a poor
contact area
5.60
burnt deposit
rough, non-coherent or otherwise unsatisfactory electrodeposit produced by the application of an
excessively high current density (5.88), usually containing oxides or other inclusions
5.61
busbar
rigid conductor for carrying current, for example, to anode and cathode bars
5.62
cathode
electrode at which reduction occurs
5.63
cathode efficiency
proportion of the total cathode current which is used in depositing the metal concerned
5.64
cathode film
layer of solution in contact with the cathode, that differs in composition from the bulk of the solution
5.65
catholyte
electrolyte solution adjacent to the cathode, i.e. the portion of the electrolyte on the cathode side of the
diaphragm (5.99) in a divided cell (5.103)
5.66
chelating agent
chemical compound that combines with a metal to form a chelate, which is a chemical compound in
which metallic and non-metallic, usually organic, groups are combined
5.67
chemical brightening
non-electrolytic chemical process to produce a bright finish (5.121) on a metal surface
Note 1 to entry: cf. bright dip (5.47)
Note 2 to entry: Chemical brightening is not to be confused with chemical polishing (5.69).
