Abstract / scope
ISO 1456 specifies the requirements for decorative, electroplated nickel plus chromium, and copper plus nickel plus chromium coatings on iron, steel, zinc alloys, copper and copper alloys, and aluminium and aluminium alloys to provide an attractive appearance and enhanced corrosion resistance. Coating designations are specified that differ in thickness and type, and guidance is given in selecting the coating designation appropriate to the service conditions to which the coated product will be exposed.
