Gelling Agent / Thickener – Additive for Drip-Free Electroplating Solutions and Precise CoatingsGelling Agent for Electrolytes – Greater Control for Pen Plating, Tampon Plating and Tank PlatingThe Gelling Agent / Thickener from Betzmann Galvanik is a specially developed additive for increasing the viscosity of electroplating electrolytes. By adding the thickener, low-viscosity electrolytes are transformed into a gel-like, low-drip consistency. This allows the electrolyte to remain on the workpiece surface for longer, making it easier to achieve precise and controlled plating results.It is particularly suitable for pen plating, tampon plating, and plating on vertical, inclined or complex-shaped surfaces, where it prevents the electrolyte from running off and significantly reduces solution loss. It is also ideal for selective plating, repair work and localized metal deposition.Your Advantages at a GlanceIncreases the viscosity of electroplating electrolytesConverts liquid electrolytes into a gel-like consistencyPrevents dripping and running on vertical surfacesReduces electrolyte consumptionEnables more precise pen plating and tampon platingImproves coating uniformityIdeal for repair plating and selective platingEasy to mix and useCompatible with many electroplating electrolytesWhy Use a Gelling Agent?Most electroplating electrolytes have a relatively low viscosity. On vertical or inclined workpieces, the electrolyte quickly runs off, which can result in:Uneven coating thicknessElectrolyte lossDrip marksPoor coating definitionIncreased electrolyte consumptionThe gelling agent keeps the electrolyte exactly where it is needed, making the plating process easier while improving coating quality and efficiency.Typical ApplicationsThe gelling agent is ideal for:Pen platingTampon platingSelective electroplatingLocal gold platingRepair gold platingVertical surface platingComplex workpiece geometriesJewellery manufacturingRestoration workModel makingPrecision engineeringApplicationSlowly add the gelling agent to the electrolyte while stirring until the desired consistency is achieved.Recommended mixing ratio:Approximately 1 part gelling agent to 10 parts electrolyteThe exact ratio may be adjusted depending on the electrolyte and the desired gel consistency.After mixing, a homogeneous gel structure should be obtained before use.Suitable ElectrolytesThe gelling agent can be used with many electroplating electrolytes, including:Gold electrolytesSilver electrolytesNickel electrolytesCopper electrolytesRhodium electrolytesMany other compatible electroplating solutionsFor new electrolyte systems, we recommend testing compatibility before large-scale use.Technical InformationProduct Type:Gelling Agent / ThickenerApplication:Increasing the viscosity of electroplating electrolytesRecommended Mixing Ratio:Approx. 1 : 10 (Gelling Agent : Electrolyte)Consistency:Adjustable from slightly thickened to highly gel-likeApplication Temperature:Room temperatureStorage:Store tightly closed in a cool and dry place.Practical Tips✔ Add the gelling agent slowly while stirring.✔ Adjust the mixing ratio gradually until the desired consistency is reached.✔ Allow the mixture to stand briefly before use so trapped air bubbles can escape.✔ Perfect for vertical surfaces and localized plating.✔ Especially recommended for gold, silver and rhodium plating applications.Safety InformationWear suitable protective gloves and safety glasses.Avoid contact with skin and eyes.Follow the Safety Data Sheet (SDS).Use only in well-ventilated areas.Keep out of reach of children.Quality from Betzmann GalvanikThe Gelling Agent / Thickener is the ideal additive for professional electroplating applications. It improves process control, reduces electrolyte consumption and enables clean, uniform and precise metal coatings, especially on demanding workpieces and during selective plating.SEO for Shopware 6Product TitleGelling Agent / Thickener – Additive for Electroplating Electrolytes and Drip-Free PlatingSEO URLgelling-agent-thickener-electroplating-electrolyteSEO TitleGelling Agent Thickener | Additive for Electroplating Electrolytes | Betzmann GalvanikMeta DescriptionProfessional gelling agent and thickener for electroplating electrolytes.
