The professional science master's, or PSM, got its start in 1997 as a way to better and more rapidly equip students with much-needed skills in the science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields. Now nearly 300 PSM programs are offered by KGI and 128 other institutions.
Parkerizing, bonderizing, phosphating, or phosphatizing is a method of protecting a steel surface from corrosion and increasing its resistance to wear through the application of a chemical phosphate conversion coating.s for all chemical conversion coatings, the Parkerized surface must be completely covered with a light coating of oil to maximize corrosion and wear resistance, primarily through reducing wetting action and galvanic action.
The Cerdec Metal Marking Solution will create black engraving on metal using a Co2 laser. The process works like ceramic glaze in that the laser heats the Cerdec Solution and causes it to change color and soak into the metal surface. The Cerdec Solution is a thick liquid that can be brushed or sprayed on to the surface. Solid black engraving can be created by applying the Cerdec Solution to stainless steel, tool steel, chrome and other uncoated metal surfaces. This process may not be suitable for all metal types.
