Galvano activator and decapping agent in one - stainless steel and nickel activator in one - from Betzmann GalvanikThe GALVANO AKTIVATOR from Betzmann Galvanik removes oxide layers on base metals to enable electroplating or electroless plating. The electroplating activator is required, for example, for electroless nickel plating of aluminium or to activate stainless steel, nickel, brass and chrome for electroplating.Discover the versatile application of the activator or decapping agent in electroplating! The activator / decapping agent is an indispensable aid for the decapping and preparation of surfaces before plating in the electroplating industry. It is used to activate surfaces of metals such as steel, copper and copper alloys as well as passive nickel layers. Decapitation removes impurities from surfaces and simultaneously prepares them for the plating process. This process is crucial to ensure optimum adhesion and durability of the coating. After alkaline pre-treatment, the decapping agent is also perfect for neutralising. It ensures that work with sulphuric or hydrochloric acid is no longer necessary, which not only increases efficiency but also improves work safety.With Betzmann Galvanik's decapping agent, you can effectively pre-treat the surface of your products to achieve high-quality electroplated coatings. Rely on its proven performance to optimise your electroplating processes and achieve outstanding results.Field of application: Pre-treatment and cleaner - General applicationThe object is either immersed in the activator for 30 to 60 seconds and then briefly rinsed with clear water or coated with the pad for at least 30 seconds from 2.7 volts. The activator removes thin layers of oxide that are invisible to the naked eye. Carry out further coating quickly after the activator bath, as these layers quickly form again with atmospheric oxygen (time period: max. 10 - 30 minutes) Recommended electrode: Stainless steel electrode or graphite electrode!  Recommended voltage: from 2.7 volts Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 Signal word: Warning Pictograms: H319 Causes serious eye irritation Hazard statements P280 Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.

Product information "Blue Chromating - Blue Passivation" from Betzmann Galvanik   Fields of application Blue chromating is used to protect existing zinc coatings or galvanically applied zinc coatings from oxidation and "tarnishing". It thus provides protection against zinc oxidation, but can hardly or not remove already existing oxidation. Furthermore, the slight yellowing caused by the brighteners of the Betzmann Galvanik zinc electrolyte after galvanizing can be removed by blue chromating. In this way, the galvanized objects are given a noble and visually appealing finish. In addition, chromating is often applied to aluminum workpieces. Blue chromating data  pH value: 2 - 3 Working temperature: room temperature (20 30°C) Immersion time: 15 s to 2 min     Effect of immersion time in blue chromate coating Tauchzeit [s] ffekt 5 - ­ 15 the yellowing caused by brighteners disappears 15 - ­ 45 bluish shimmering, glossy surface 45 -­ 120 Becomes increasingly matt  Corrosion protection increases   Use of the blue chromate Place the blue chromate in a suitable container and immerse the galvanized object in the chromate for a time between 15 and 120 seconds. Chromating must be done as soon as possible after galvanizing, otherwise a passivation layer will form on the zinc, making chromating impossible. With an immersion time of only 15 s, the yellow coloration disappears (see above). As the immersion time increases (approx. 30 s), a slightly bluish shimmering surface develops. If the immersion time is even longer, a more matte effect can be achieved. This layer then also has the highest corrosion resistance, although it is not as shiny. The times mentioned are not binding, it also depends on the condition of the zinc coating, temperature, etc. Therefore, check regularly whether the result corresponds to your wishes. Important to know: the zinc layer is removed by chromating! However, a maximum of 2 µm after a dipping time of 4 min.   Safety advice Causes skin irritation. Causes severe eye irritation.  Wash hands thoroughly after use. Wear protective gloves / protective clothing / eye protection / face protection. Wear face protection. IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of water. If skin irritation occurs: Seek medical advice / medical attention. Remove contaminated clothing. IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove existing contact lenses if possible. Continue rinsing.   Disposal   Please contact your local waste disposal company or your pollutant collection point for information.        

Product information "Yellow chromating" by Betzmann Galvanik Product description: Betzmann Galvanik Yellow Chromating - the product properties at a glance:   yellow to golden finish for zinc and galvanized objects ideal as finish for our zinc electrolyte simple dip bath, no power supply or accessories required completely free of highly toxic chromium(VI) also colors already blue passivated zinc parts yellow, e.g. screws from the hardware store The chromium(VI) yellow chromating, which has been common for many years, is no longer allowed in Germany due to its high toxicity, not even for commercial users. Therefore, we have now developed an alternative based on the much less problematic chromium (III). Yellow chromated parts are visually appealing, corrosion inhibited and a MUST for all those who work e.g. in the field of classic cars and classic car restoration. The yellow passivation creates a color tone on the zinc that is deceptively close to that of a chromium (VI) chromate coating. The color tone is reminiscent of brass, as with the old chromating. The iridescent effect of the yellow layer is also present.   The chromating of zinc and zinc workpieces is done simply by dipping them into the yellow chromating bath.   A yellow passivation layer is formed within a few minutes without any further aids. During passivation, part of the zinc is removed or dissolved, so make sure that the zinc layer is sufficiently thick (>= 2 µm). This is especially true if you have previously galvanized the workpieces yourself with our zinc electrolyte. You can stop the process at any time by removing the workpiece from the bath and rinsing it with distilled water. If the effect is too weak you can put the piece back into the bath until the desired color is achieved. Shades from very faint light yellow to golden yellow can be achieved.

Our copper electrolyte alkaline for acid-sensitive metals is cyanide-free! Ideal for bath and tampon - / pin electroplating suitable 50 grams copper / liter For use on iron and zinc metals Easy to use and cyanide free   Ideally suited to copperplate even acid-sensitive materials (iron, zinc or steel). For example, copper plating can also be applied to materials that are attacked by the acidic copper electrolyte - for example, rusting steels or other ferrous materials. Copper plating effectively protects workpieces made of iron and steel against rust and gives them an attractive surface thanks to the typical red luster of the precious metal. Because of its good solderability, electroplated copper plating is ideal for the production of printed circuit boards or similar. Simply use the copper electrolyte together with a copper sheet as anode and you can quickly provide a component with a shiny copper coating yourself. The exact instructions for use can be found in our guide here in the download area! For copper plating of non-acid sensitive materials please use the Betzmann Electroplating Bright Copper Electrolyte.  Alkaline copper electrolyte can be used in bath electroplating as well as in pin electroplating/tampon electroplating. Since it enables electroplating of acid-sensitive metals, it is suitable for many applications. Important properties of alkaline copper electrolyte are excellent leveling and good scattering. This color tone can be further enhanced by an additional coating with our bright copper electrolyte. Applications for Copper Electrolyte Alkaline Copper Alkaline prepares acid-sensitive materials for copper plating with acidic copper electrolyte. These include, for example, various ferrous materials or zinc. A particular advantage is that it does not deposit electrolessly on iron, which would form a loose coating before electrodeposition begins. This increases adhesion to ferrous materials. Basic copper electrolyte serves as an intermediate layer for acid-sensitive metals before final plating with acid electrolytic copper or other coatings. Basic copper electrolyte is suitable for the following metals:   Lead, bronze, iron, copper, brass, zinc, tin, steel, zinc die casting and many others. Basic copper is not suitable for aluminum, chromium and titanium. Aluminum requires pretreatment with aluminum activator Please test all other metals not mentioned above for their suitability for electroplating before copper plating.  Application instructions for copper electrolyte alkaline Copper Electrolyte Alkaline is suitable for all electroplating processes from bath electroplating to pin electroplating / pad electroplating. It already works at room temperature; however, it can be heated if necessary. The ideal temperature range is between 25 - 50°C. Clean the workpiece thoroughly before treatment.

Copper electrolyte alkaline / basic for acid sensitive materials The copper gives a beautiful shiny finish. It can still be used with our Bronze- Mixer can be used to mix different color shades from red gloss to white bronze to be able. White bronze is increasingly desired and used as a nickel substitute.   Copper electrolyte alkaline for acid sensitive metals Copper electrolyte alkaline (basic) can be used in both bath electroplating and pen plating / tampon plating. Our alkaline copper electrolyte contains no cyanides. Since it enables electroplating of acid-sensitive metals, it is suitable for many applications. The important properties of alkaline copper electrolyte are excellent levelling and good dispersion. In addition, alkaline or basic copper impresses with an intensive and visually attractive color tone. An additional coating with our bright copper electrolyte can further enhance this color tone. Application areas for copper electrolyte alkaline Copper alkaline prepares acid-sensitive materials for copper plating with acid copper electrolyte. These include various ferrous materials or zinc. A particular advantage is that it does not deposit on iron without current, which would form a loose coating before galvanic deposition begins. This increases the adhesion on ferrous materials. Basic copper electrolyte serves as an intermediate layer for acid-sensitive metals before the final coating with acid electrolytic copper or other coatings. Basic copper electrolyte is suitable for the following metals: Lead, bronze, iron, copper, brass, zinc, tin, steel, zinc die-cast and many others Basic copper is not suitable for aluminum, chrome and titanium.

  Palladium electrolyte with 2 Gram per Liter from Betzmann Galvanik - as nickel substitute - barrier layer or as hard decorative top layer!    Palladium electrolyte - The allergen-free alternative to nickel! Palladinizing or plating with palladium is a rather rarely used galvanic coating. However, palladium plating can offer some advantages, especially as a substitute for galvanic nickel plating with a nickel electrolyte.  The advantages of palladium electrolyte compared to electroless nickel plating: Typically, a nickel electrolyte is used to apply a barrier layer of nickel between copper and gold, preventing the two metals from mixing. However, a palladium plating offers several distinct advantages over the nickel electrolyte: Palladium is more noble than nickel, meaning there is no surface corrosion, and the palladium does NOT require extra activation prior to gold plating as nickel does. The deposition rate and efficiency are excellent, i.e. there is no unwanted gas evolution. The electrolyte deposits silvery white, very bright palladium which can be used as a bright "finish". Gold plating with the Betzmann gold electrolyte for pin electroplating achieves an optimum result on palladium. In contrast to nickel electrolyte, palladium is not carcinogenic and is therefore also permitted for private users!  A very good combination for gold plating of almost all metals is:  Alkaline or acid copper depending on the metal, palladium and finally gold.  All necessary electrolytes are available in our store. Palladium can be plated on the following metals:  Copper, nickel, brass, silver, gold, on all dechromed surfaces.   Recommended voltages:  Pin electroplating: from 3 volts - Bath electroplating: 3 - 4 volts. Recommended is graphite electrode or platinum electrode from our store. Palladium content: 2 grams per liter   Main benefits;  Makes a great alternative to rhodium plating giving an authentic 18 carat white gold or platinum plated look. palladium plating solution (unlike rhodium) doesn’t etch materials made of calcium carbonate such as pearl and coral, so you won’t have to worry about masking out these materials before submerging them in your palladium plating bath. can be used as a substitute for nickel as a barrier layer for gold plating on copper and its alloys. can be used as an alternative to silver as it doesn’t tarnish and is hard-wearing. Very low porosity – excellent for corrosion protection. Readily wettable by solder and dissolves a lot more slowly than gold in the solder making it an excellent top coat over gold for electrical contacts.

With the high-frequency pulse process, HFP for short, in our BMG-50A-500 professional coating system, gold and other metals are applied to a surface faster and are also more durable.   Advantage of HFP: According to studies, the quality of gold coatings applied by HFP is much better than with other coating techniques. The current pulses have a particularly high density with short application times. As a result, the gold coating is applied very evenly in only a short time.   In addition, the HFP coating causes a decrease in porosity, which in turn increases the surface area while maintaining the same amount of gold. The cost factor is thus reduced. The coating particles are much finer and more compact and no less porous than with conventional coatings. This also means that there is no double-layer effect.

With the high-frequency pulse process, HFP for short, in our BMG-50A professional coating system, gold and other metals are applied to a surface faster and are also more durable.   Advantage of HFP: According to studies, the quality of gold coatings applied by HFP is much better than with other coating techniques. The current pulses have a particularly high density with short application times. As a result, the gold coating is applied very evenly in only a short time. In addition, the HFP coating causes a decrease in porosity, which in turn increases the surface area while maintaining the same amount of gold. The cost factor is thus reduced. The coating particles are much finer and more compact and no less porous than with conventional coatings. This also means that there is no double-layer effect.
