Chromium Slug is a metal sputtering target as evaporation coating material. Its size is customizeable and surface treatment against customers’ requirements. Made from high-purity chromium, these sputtering targets are primarily used in physical vapor deposition (PVD) processes, where a thin film of chromium is deposited onto surfaces to enhance performance or achieve specific functional properties. The unique properties of chromium-such as its high hardness, corrosion resistance, and lustrous finish-make it a preferred material for both decorative and functional coatings.

Applications
One of the major applications of chrome sputtering targets is in the electronic industry. Chrome coatings are commonly used in the production of semiconductor devices, displays, and data storage media. The excellent conductivity and durability of chromium thin films make them ideal for creating reliable, long-lasting electronic components. Additionally, these targets are essential in manufacturing flat panel displays, where they enable high-precision, transparant conductive coatings for enhanced visual clarity and performance.
In the automotive and aerospace industries, chrome sputtering targets are utilized to produce wear-resistant, anti-corrosive coatings for engine parts, tools, and decorative trim. These chromium coatings not only extend the life of components by protecting them from harsh environments and friction but also add an aesthetically pleasing, metallic finish to surfaces. Furthermore, the use of crhomium coatings in medical devices, such as surgical instruments, ensures durability and biocompatiblity, making them safer and longer-lasting.
