Selber verchromen: mit dem richtigen Zubehör zum perfekten Ergebnis

Baugruppen, Bauteile, einzelne Komponenten, aber auch Alltagsgegenstände werden immer häufiger mit einer Chrombeschichtung versehen. Das Verchromen bringt erhebliche Vorteile, die sich im Alltag zeigen. So wird damit auf das Grundmaterial eine Beschichtung aufgetragen. Diese Beschichtung schützt das Grundmaterial und sorgt dafür, dass Bauteile auch wenn sie extremen Bedingungen ausgesetzt sind, nicht rosten. So wird durch das Verchromen der Korrosionsschutz verbessert. Es gibt zwei Möglichkeiten. Zum einen können Sie die gewünschten Teile beschichten lassen, zum anderen können Sie diese aber auch selber verchromen.

Verchromen sorgt für fest haftende Oxidschicht

Wenn Sie mit Hilfsmitteln wie Alu-Elektroden selber verchromen, entsteht auf dem Metall eine Oxidschicht. Diese Oxidschicht haftet sehr fest und ist langlebig. Ein großer Vorteil ist zudem, dass sie absolut undurchlässig ist. Dadurch hält sie auch einer starken Beanspruchung sehr zuverlässig stand. Je nachdem ob das Verchromen in Unternehmen oder Privathaushalten erfolgt, finden unterschiedliche Vorgehensweisen Anwendung. Unternehmen, die selbst verchromen wollen, können auf Chrom(VI)-Säure zurückgreifen. Diese ist aber höchst giftig und ist deswegen für Privathaushalte nicht erhältlich. Hier gilt als Alternative Chromtrioxid.

Was kann ich selber verchromen?

Generell lassen sich die verschiedensten Gegenstände aus Metall selber verchromen. Hierbei kann es sich um Komponenten aus Bronze und Aluminium, aber auch aus Eisen und Edelstahl handeln. Selbst Zinkdruckguss lässt sich mit wenig Aufwand selber verchromen. Damit handelt es sich hierbei um ein spezielles Verfahren, mit dem sich Lampen und Dekoartikel, aber auch Tischbeine edel beschichten lassen. Wenn Sie das passende Zubehör zum Verchromen suchen, können Sie sich auf uns verlassen. Gern stehen wir Ihnen bei der Auswahl beratend zur Seite.

Chromplating - Chrome solution
Chrome electrolyte - chrome plating with Betzmann Galvanik   Chrome plating by yourself with high-quality chrome electrolyte from Betzmann Galvanik  A layer of chromium protects a wide variety of components from oxidation and corrosion. In addition, the workpiece is given a visually appealing appearance. Our electrolyte is based on chrome(III). While chromium(VI) was originally used in the industrial process, chromium(III) electrolytes are increasingly being used because they have a significantly lower impact on man and nature. This electrolyte contains all our know-how - we were able to make it significantly brighter and more efficient. Current densities up to 20A/dm² can be achieved. Usually chrome is deposited in the layer system copper - nickel - chrome. The intermediate layer of nickel provides additional protection against corrosion, as chrome layers show microcracks. T   Of course, the chrome electrolyte is suitable for all processes such as bath electroplating and pen plating (or pad plating). When chromium plating, always wear the necessary protective equipment such as safety goggles, gloves and protective clothing and only work in a well-ventilated room.   Parameters (these may vary, please test): Bath electroplating: 1.5-6V (approx. 3V recommended at 10cm distance) pin plating: 3-7V (approx. 4-5V recommended) Current density: 4-24A/dm² (up to 50A/dm² with bath movement) Working temperature 20-50°C (25°C recommended) deposition rate: 0.06µm/min at 10A/dm²   The most important advantages at a glance:  is equally suitable for bath electroplating and pen plating / pad plating high adhesive strength and abrasion resistance high hardness up to 1200 HV extremely large current density range appealing optics Color of the chrome layer is very similar to the result of hexavalent chrome baths heating of the electrolyte is not necessary (temperature range 15-50°C, preferably 15-30°C) high reflection and beautiful gloss higher permissible metal impurities than with other processes, thus easier to use    To achieve a perfect result with the chrome electrolyte, the appropriate anodes are required for the galvanic process used. Anodes made of aluminum, platinized titanium, platinum or iridium are recommended. For pen plating, graphite, nickel or stainless steel anodes can be used if necessary. With nickel or stainless steel anodes, however, it is important to ensure that the pad is washed out well in between so that the metal contamination that arises does not contaminate the electrolyte and the chromium layer.   Aluminium anodes have proven to be particularly advantageous, they are particularly cost-effective and the electrolyte retains its excellent color. If you do not have any, we recommend that you order them directly from us.   Identification of the mixture: Chrome Electrolyte (contains chromium hydroxide sulfate, boric acid, ammonium chloride, ammonium formate) Signal word: Caution H-phrases: H317: May cause an allergic skin reaction.
