Product information "Black Chrome - Smoky Chrome"

Black Chrome - Smoky Chrome by Betzmann Galvanik

This dark anthracite to slightly black shiny look is now popular for many car parts or cell phones and is a very good alternative to black rhodium or black ruthenium.

Alternative to black rhodium or black ruthenium.

Black chrome is a spectacular finish and always an eye catcher.

Recommended electrode: Carbon Electrode 10 Volt - Platinum electrode 11 Volt.

Plating on degreased copper, nickel, gold flash or any other gold plating.

Operating Conditions and Deposit Data

Voltage Range	9 – 11 volts (see notes)
Temperature	20 – 30 °C
Lightness (L*) of deposit	65 – 70%
Electrode	Carbon or Platinum Electrode (see notes)
Chromium content in plate	99% (balance carbon)
Plating Rate at (10 volts, Carbon Electrode)	Approx. 2 micron per minute (spot)
Maximum plating thickness	3 microns
Hardness (as plated)	800 Hv (see notes)
Hardness after heat treatment	1500 – 1600 Hv (see notes)
Density of deposit	7.2 g/cm3
Stress	Hi stress
Special storage requirements	None
Shelf life	1 – 2 years
Health and Safety classification	Not classified as dangerous
Special considerations	None
Transport (UN number)	None: Not classified as dangerous for transport

Notes:

Heat treating at 220 °C increases the hardness of the deposit from 800 to 1600 Hv.
The voltage should be raised from 10 volts if using a Carbon Electrode to 11 volts when
using a Platinum Electrode.
We strongly advise against the use of stainless steel anodes for most of our plating processes.
Plating rates are calculated over a sample area which is permanently covered by swab.

Anode sleeve fuzzy

Anode pad / tampon / anode sleeve / fuzzy sleeve / replacement fabric pad puffy from Betzmann Galvanik. This puffy fabric pad / anode sleeve or also called tampon is absolutely recommended for all plating processes. Optimally suitable for all coatings and electrolytes. The coating of larger areas is also quite fast with this pad. The insertion hole is larger than the electrode and therefore it happens that the moist anode pad slips off. Therefore, fix the pad on the electrode with a small rubber band.

Carbon Electrode 6mm

Graphite round rod - Graphite rod anode - Graphite electrode for gold plating. Graphite electrodes are ultimate for all coatings. The advantage is that in some coatings with stainless steel electrodes, the dislodged metal parts disturb the coating. This does not happen with graphite electrodes, because graphite also filters out contaminated liquids. With bath electroplating, they also need to be replaced occasionally as they slowly dissolve during the plating process. With pad electroplating, simply loosen the screw on the handle and replace with a new one. Diameter 6 mm, length approx. 9 cm Features Used for Doesn’t contaminate Cleaner Activating and electro-cleaning Its resistive properties help to heat the solution you’re plating with Chromium plating, which needs to be plated at 25 degrees celsius; its natural heating action helps to maintain the solution’s optimal temperature Low cost Can be used for all plating processes but carbon electrodes deteriorate over a period of time and discolour swabs (discolouration does not affect the plating quality)

Platinum Electrode

Platinum electrode from Betzmann-Galvanik: We know that when plating with gold or silver, you want to achieve only the best results and this is achieved by using our platinum electrode (platinized titanium). This will more than meet your requirements. It hardly wears out and leaves no black spots or stains when plating. For top quality gold plating, we recommend the use of this electrode. Care should be taken to clean the electrode carefully after each use! Properties "Platinum Electrode 6 mm Platinum electrode (platinized titanium with a platinum layer of 2.5 µm platinum) Ø 6 mm x 100 mm Standard electrode for experiments in electrochemistry (electroplating, electrolysis, ion migration, determination of electrochemical potentials, etc.) Spare platinum electrode for Hofmann decomposition apparatus, electrolyzer Platinum-coated titanium anodes are among the classic anode materials for electroplating because they combine the excellent electrochemical properties of platinum with the good corrosion properties of titanium. They are characterized by a long service life at high current density and are versatile in use. They are equally suitable for platinum and ruthenium baths, for hard chrome plating, as bright rhodium baths and for cathodic corrosion protection. The standard platinum layer thickness is 2.5 μm. In order to achieve the best results when plating with gold (adhesive gold bath, bright gold plating bath) or silver, they are indispensable. This platinum electrode will more than meet your requirements, it hardly wears out and leaves no black spots or stains when plating. For top quality gold plating, I recommend using this electrode. Other possible applications: Water electrolysis/separation of hydrogen and oxygen, water disinfection, production of chlorates (chlorate synthesis) and perchlorates. Recommended operating data: Operating voltage from 3 volts distance anode/workpiece surface 5 cm anodic current intensity (specific current density) max. 75 A/dm² (7.5 mA/mm² = 750 mA/cm²), i.e. a multiple of the values typical in electroplating (0.5 ... 5 A/dm²) pH value: 0 - 11 Bath temperature max. 60 °C

Gold Flash - Goldflash

Product information "Gold Flash" from Betzmann Galvanik Gold Flash with 2 grams of gold per liter - wonderfully suitable as an intermediate layer or decorative layer. The Gold Flash from Betzmann Galvanik has 2 main areas of application: 1. optical-decorative layer: Gold is soft and needs the addition of cobalt as a hard abrasion resistant top layer, which is not included in this product. Therefore, the gold layer from Goldflash appears somewhat lighter yellow. Parts that are not subject to any stress, such as souvenirs, horseshoes for decoration, etc., can be easily, directly and inexpensively gold-plated with the Goldflash. Tip: You can first gild parts very intensively and thickly with the Goldflash and then coat them briefly with the 8 or 12 gram cobalt-displaced hard gold! 2. bonding primer for the following coatings: Many applications require thin layers of gold before actual plating. Until now, this was only possible with the use of 24 carat gold and was therefore quite costly. cost-intensive. This is now a thing of the past. With the Goldflash from Betzmann Galvanik, you can now apply the desired gold layer. As an example, direct silver plating of nickel is usually not feasible, so you can first gold plate with the Goldflash, then silver plate. Likewise, when using black chrome, rose gold plating, green gold plating, the gold flash serves as an optimal bonding base when copper or nickel cannot be applied directly! Also, gilding nickel, which naturally oxidizes, is very easy and spotless. Then chrome plating on Goldflash can be done even easier and without problems. Despite gold plating, the material input is far below 10 cents per cm2 of surface! Recommended electrode: platinum electrode, graphite electrode Voltage: from approx. 4 volts Procedure: Polishing if necessary Degreasing Activate Goldflash Continue with the top layer chrome, white gold, rose gold, green gold Feature Used for Allows electroplating of a thin layer of strongly adherent gold. Before applying another layer of plating, for example when silver or palladium plating on stainless steel, nickel and its alloys. 24 carat thin coats of gold: electronics, optics – reflectors – and where the item is going to be protected with a clear lacquer layer.
