Hard Chrome - An Industrial Innovation

When we tend to see shiny metal, we simply associate it with Chrome. But is it really Chrome? Here are some facts that you need to know...

For most, Chrome is a slang word for Chromium that is one of the 92 naturally occurring metal elements. It is a kind of metal but not that useful as a solid, pure substance. As when you hear that something is made of solid chrome, it is not really made of it, it is somehow a thin layer or plating of chrome on the object such that the bulk of its object is sometimes, copper, aluminum, steel, brass or plastic.
