Examining the Electro Nickel Plating Process
Metals are commercially important, considering its significance in a wide range of sectors. So, the development of measures to enhance its function and appearance is an intended one. In that sense nickel plating is a surface treatment that involves applying a thin layer of alloy to change the functional and physical properties of an item, such as its durability or performance. It is widely used to improve the value and appeal of a manufactured good, along with its resistance to corrosion or heat. This includes automotive parts, metal furniture, and consumer electronics. How It Works To properly transfer nickel to a surface, it is essential that the base material is negatively charged. For this, typically that item is attached to the battery or other power source using a conductive wire in a chamber. After that, nickel rods are also attached to a positive power source using similar methods. Then, that base material is submerged into chemical salt solutions that usually c
