  2. Electroplating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroplating

    Brush electroplating has several advantages over tank plating, including portability, the ability to plate items that for some reason cannot be tank plated (one application was the plating of portions of very large decorative support columns in a building restoration), low or no masking requirements, and comparatively low plating solution ...

  3. Electrochemical coloring of metals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochemical_coloring...

    Black nickel plating was developed around 1905, and between the two wars, black chrome plating (first German patent 1929.GP 607, 420), which saw wider use only from the mid-1950s. [14] After the First World War, the first procedures for anodic oxidation and coloring of anodically oxidized aluminium were developed (1923, 1924.DRP. 413876).

  4. Electrogalvanization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrogalvanization

    Such Zinc electroplating or Zinc alloy electroplating maintains a dominant position among other electroplating process options, based upon electroplated tonnage per annum. According to the International Zinc Association, more than 5 million tons are used yearly for both hot dip galvanizing and electroplating. [ 1 ]

  5. Copper electroplating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_electroplating

    Excluding the continuous strip plating industry, copper is the second most commonly-plated metal after nickel. [6] Copper electroplating offers a number of advantages over other plating processes, including low metal cost, high-conductivity and high-ductility bright finish, and high plating efficiency.

  6. Localized pulsed electrodeposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Localized_pulsed_electro...

    Localized pulsed electrodeposition (L-PED) is a technique for direct 3D printing of free-standing and layer-by-layer micro/nano-scale metallic structures at the tip of an electrolyte containing nozzle. [1]

  7. Nickel electroplating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel_electroplating

    Nickel electroplating is a process of depositing nickel onto a metal part. Parts to be plated must be clean and free of dirt, corrosion, and defects before plating can begin. [ 3 ] To clean and protect the part during the plating process, a combination of heat treating , cleaning, masking, pickling , and etching may be used. [ 1 ]

  8. Electrowinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrowinning

    In electrowinning, an electrical current is passed from an inert anode through a leach solution containing the dissolved metal ions so that the metal is recovered as it is reduced and deposited in an electroplating process onto the cathode. In electrorefining, the anode consists of the impure metal (e.g., copper) to be refined. The impure ...

  9. Metallizing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metallizing

    The processed surface is then coated with electroless copper or nickel before further plating. This process gives useful (about 1 to 6 kgf /cm or 10 to 60 N /cm or 5 to 35 lbf /in) adhesion force, but is much weaker than actual metal-to-metal adhesion strength.
