AUTODEPOSITION UTILIZES CHEMICAL REACTIONS TO DEPOSIT A CORROSION-RESISTANT ORGANIC COATING ON METAL WORKPIECES. INNOVATIONS IN ION EXCHANGE TECHNOLOGY HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED AND COMMERCIALIZED WHICH SELECTIVELY REMOVE BY-PRODUCTS OF THE CHEMICAL COATING REACTIONS FROM THE COATING BATH. THIS NEW TECHNOLOGY SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASES COATING TRANSFER EFFICIENCY AND DECREASES WASTE EFFLUENT FOR THE AUTODEPOSITION PROCESS.
