2. Electroplating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroplating

   Electroplating, also known as electrochemical deposition or electrodeposition, is a process for producing a metal coating on a solid substrate through the reduction of cations of that metal by means of a direct electric current. The part to be coated acts as the cathode (negative electrode) of an electrolytic cell; the electrolyte is a solution ...

3. Nickel electroplating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel_electroplating

   Overview. 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]

4. Chrome plating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrome_plating

   Chrome plating. Chrome plating (less commonly chromium plating) is a technique of electroplating a thin layer of chromium onto a metal object. A chrome plated part is called chrome, or is said to have been chromed. The chromium layer can be decorative, provide corrosion resistance, facilitate cleaning, and increase surface hardness.

5. Electroless nickel-boron plating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroless_nickel-boron...

   Electroless nickel-boron plating developed as a variant of the similar nickel-phosphorus process, discovered accidentally by Charles Adolphe Wurtz in 1844. [2]In 1969, Harold Edward Bellis from DuPont filed a patent for a general class of electroless plating processes using sodium borohydride, dimethylamine borane, or sodium hypophosphite, in the presence of thallium salts, thus producing a ...

6. Copper electroplating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_electroplating

   Copper electroplating. Copper plating on aluminium. Copper electroplating is the process of electroplating a layer of copper onto the surface of a metal object. Copper is used both as a standalone coating and as an undercoat onto which other metals are subsequently plated. [ 1 ] The copper layer can be decorative, provide corrosion resistance ...

7. Electrogalvanization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrogalvanization

   Electrogalvanization. Electrogalvanizing is a process in which a layer of zinc is bonded to steel in order to protect against corrosion. The process involves electroplating, running a current of electricity through a saline/zinc solution with a zinc anode and steel conductor. Such Zinc electroplating or Zinc alloy electroplating maintains a ...
