| Abstract: | Plating – a cost-effective alternative to the use of metallic materials in chemical engineering. The paper treats plated semifinished products used in chemical plant construction. Advantages and draw-backs of various plating processes such as welding, rolling, or by detonation are discussed as well as post plating processing such as hot forming or joining with regard to measures to be observed. Selection of the most suitable technique should be based on considerations of materials producers, workshops, and chemical plants. |
