Synopsis

Practical insights from Modern Electro Plating guide readers through copper and nickel plating with real-world steps and troubleshooting.

It explains how to build a copper bath using cyanide and carbonate to get a smooth, even deposit, then how to test and adjust current, solution concentration, and temperature for best results.

The nickel section describes why the double salt of nickel and ammonium is favored, how to prepare a large nickel bath efficiently, and how to manage anodes and current to prevent edge loss or bath drift. It also covers how to maintain bath conditions, handle deposits, and avoid common problems like blistering or overly acidic baths.
What you’ll discover
  • Step-by-step methods for preparing copper and nickel plating solutions
  • How to choose and arrange anodes, and regulate current for uniform deposits
  • Tips for testing bath strength, temperature, and stability using simple measurements
  • Troubleshooting guidance for blisters, slow deposits, and edge issues
  • Practical notes on bath longevity, mixing salts, and keeping baths in smooth working order
Ideal for hobbyists and professional platers who want hands-on techniques, clear instructions, and practical fixes to keep nickel and copper plating running reliably.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Excerpt from Modern Electro Plating: The Principles Involved in Depositing Gold, Silver, Nickel, Copper, Brass and Other Metals, by Means of Batteries or Dynamos; The Preparation and Management of Plating Baths, Chemicals Used, Etc

This little work has been prepared chiefly to help out of his difficulties the plater in country towns who has purchased a small outfit and begun operations without previous training in a plating establishment where modern methods have been employed with a due regard for speed and economy in turning out the work. Hence it has been thought best to confine our remarks chiefly to the principles involved in the work, and to tell in a common sense way, how the work is done; what forces are employed; how they are handled, and how the various formulae may be made and varied to suit the conditions of the work or to overcome the difficulties that may arise in continuous working of solutions.

It has seemed better to do this than to give a large number of formulae which, although they may be perfectly adapted to a special purpose, contain in themselves no real information, but have to be taken blindly, like a physician's prescription for a fever.
