Passivation is a chemical processing service offered by Element in which metals are surface treated to inhibit corrosion, usually by applying a layer of oxide to the material, much like the natural oxidation of copper. Passivation often requires a pre-cleaning in acid solutions to prepare the surface and dissolve any impurities.
