Electroplating is used to coat a surface with a thin layer of metal through electrochemical processes. HOW DOES IT WORK? The object to be plated is placed in a solution containing ions of the metal with which it is to be plated. When a negative charge is applied to the object, the positively charged metal […]
Electroplating is a process that uses electrical current to reduce dissolved metal cations so that they form a coherent metal coating on an electrode. The term is also used for electrical oxidation of anions onto a solid substrate, as in the formation silver chloride on silver wire to make silver/silver-chloride electrodes. Electroplating is primarily used […]
