Copper fluoroborate baths are similar to acid sulfate baths, but they use fluoroborate as the anion rather than sulfate. [6] Copper fluoroborate is much more soluble than copper sulfate, which allows one to dissolve larger quantities of copper salt into the bath, enabling much higher current densities than what is possible in copper sulfate baths.
The electrolyte in the electrolytic plating cell should contain positive ions (cations) of the metal to be deposited. These cations are reduced at the cathode to the metal in the zero valence state. For example, the electrolyte for copper electroplating can be a solution of copper(II) sulfate, which dissociates into Cu 2+ cations and SO 2− 4 ...
Copper(II) sulfate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Cu SO 4.It forms hydrates CuSO 4 ·nH 2 O, where n can range from 1 to 7. The pentahydrate (n = 5), a bright blue crystal, is the most commonly encountered hydrate of copper(II) sulfate, [10] while its anhydrous form is white. [11]
Black for copper. Solution of sodium polysulfide 2.5%, items must be submerged in the solution after color developing, wash, dry and wax or varnish colored object. [27] Brown for copper. Items are boiled in at least 3-day-old water solution of 12% copper sulfate, after color being developed, the material is washed, dried and waxed or varnished ...

100 ml of distilled water cathode made of platinum or stainless steel (needle), anode nickel-plated or gold-plated copper or brass or polished steel, duration 10 s, distance between cathode and anode 3 mm . [20] An electrolyte of 100 g of litharge dissolved in 0.5 l of water can also be used in which 100 g of NaOH is dissolved.
Elemental zinc is dipped into a copper (II) sulphate solution. Red deposit is the reduction process in which Cu (II) is converted to elemental Cu. Elemental Zn is oxidized to Zn (II) and dissolves into solution. The electroless deposition and electroplating bath actively performs cathodic and anodic reactions at the surface of the substrate.
In the production of copper, these pure sheets of copper are used as starter material for the cathodes, and are then lowered into a solution such as copper sulfate with the large anodes that are cast from impure (97% pure) copper. The copper from the anodes is electroplated on to the cathodes, while any impurities settle to the bottom of the tank.
