The electrolyte in the electrolytic plating cell should contain positive ions (cations) of the metal to be deposited. … See more

Throwing power (or macro throwing power) is an important parameter that provides a measure of the uniformity of electroplating current, and consequently the uniformity of the electroplated metal thickness, on regions of t… See more

Electroplating changes the chemical, physical, and mechanical properties of the workpiece. An example of a chemical change is when nickel plating improves corrosion resistance. An example of a physical ch… See more

There are a number of alternative processes to produce metallic coatings on solid substrates that do not involve electrolytic reduction:
• Electroless deposition uses a bath containing … See more

It has been theorized that the first electroplating was done in Parthian Empire era. Wilhelm König, while an assistant at the National Museum of Iraq in the 1930s, had observed a number of very fine silver objects fro… See more
