Palladium Solution from Betzmann Galvanik with 10 Gramm per Liter - 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:  Pen - Brush electroplating: from 3 volts - Bath electroplating: 3 - 4 volts.

Recommended is graphite electrode or platinum electrode from our store.

Palladium content: 10 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.

Copper Plating Solution
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.

Nickel Free
Galvanic Nickel Electrolyte from Betzmann Galvanik for self-nickel plating Nickel Plating Solution   Our absolutely high-quality galvanic nickel electrolyte has been specially developed for self-nickel plating and may be sold to private individuals without an end-use declaration.   Depending on the material of the workpiece as well as the detailed procedure of nickel plating you will achieve the following results: reliable corrosion protection by a layer combination such as copper-nickel chemically resistant protective layer against diluted acids, alkalis as well as air and water diffusion protection for subsequent electroplating (e.g. diffusion from a base copper layer into the covering gold layer) decorative protective coating with a high-gloss surface, which also serves as wear protection. As an electroplating nickel electrolyte, our product is suitable for bath electroplating as well as for pin electroplating and pad electroplating. During nickel plating, the magnetic properties of the workpiece are retained and it exhibits a high-gloss silver-like color with a subtle yellow tint. Just as convincing as the final result is the high deposition rate exhibited by the nickel electrolyte. Electroplated nickel - decorative or protective coating   If a simply formed workpiece or component is to be provided with a protective layer, we recommend the combination of copper and nickel. In this way, you immediately achieve reliable corrosion protection, which you would otherwise only achieve with pure nickel plating with a layer thickness of 25 to 50 µm. Only at these thicknesses does the coating have the required freedom from pores, since nickel electrolytes always deposit with fine pores. However, electroplated nickel not only protects against corrosion. The coating, which is uncomplicated to apply, is highly resistant to dilute acids and alkalis and serves as wear protection. If several electroplating steps with layers of different metals are planned, an electroplated nickel electrolyte can be used as a barrier layer. In this way, you prevent diffusion or color mixing of different layers. In all processes, it is irrelevant whether you use our nickel electrolyte for bath electroplating or for pin electroplating and pad electroplating. For decorative plating, the combination of bright nickel and chrome is ideal for reliably achieving flat surfaces, although pure bright nickel plating may be sufficient depending on the application.   Application instructions for Betzmann Galvanik's Free Nickel Nickel Electrolyte (bright nickel) Our high-performance Free Nickel Nickel Electrolyte is preferably processed at room temperature (range from 15 to 60 °C). It is suitable for all common metals, semi-precious and precious metals with the exception of aluminum, chrome (dechrome beforehand) and titanium.   If you plan to nickel plate stainless steel yourself, please be sure to use a nickel strike for pretreatment or gold plate in advance with Goldflash. to increase adhesion.   Before galvanic nickel plating, clean the workpiece particularly thoroughly. Remove rust completely and degrease the component, e.g. with isopropanol. Be sure to work with clean disposable gloves to avoid transferring skin grease to the workpiece.   The nickel electrode from Betzmann Galvanik is particularly recommended - this results in a very high range, as the nickel is permanently enriched.   Please pay attention to the following recommendations, depending on the electroplating method used. Parameters: Bath electroplating: 2-5V (approx. 3V recommended at 10cm distance) Pin electroplating: 6-12V (approx. 8-9V recommended) Current density: 0.3-1.2A/dm² (up to 3A/dm² with bath movement) Working temperature: 15-60°C pH value: approx. 4 (can be corrected e.g. with 10% sulphuric acid) Deposition speed: approx. 0.3µm/min at 1A/dm² and 20°C   Identification of the mixture: Signal word: Caution Free nickel (contains nickel sulfate, nickel dichloride, nickel bis(sulfamidate), nickel di(acetate), diammonium nickel bis(sulfate)) GHS07 H317 May cause an allergic skin reaction.

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)
