What is chrome layer (chemical film)?
I need the definition of it.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Hello Kim. It can be difficult and dangerous to try to define a term taken out of context, but I think you are referring to the chromate conversion coating of aluminum. Please see mil spec Mil-C-5541 for a starting point. Good luck.
