18K Rose Gold Electrolyte – Professional Rose Gold Plating Solution (4.0 g/L Au)
Premium 18K Rose Gold Electrolyte for Brilliant Rose Gold and Red Gold Plating
The 18K Rose Gold Electrolyte is a premium, ready-to-use rose gold plating solution designed for depositing elegant 18-karat rose gold and red gold coatings. This neutral gold electrolyte operates without free cyanide, features a stable pH value, and produces uniform, high-gloss, and highly adherent gold-copper alloy coatings.
The balanced gold-copper alloy creates the characteristic warm rose gold color that is highly valued in jewelry manufacturing, luxury goods, and premium decorative finishing. The deposited coatings offer excellent hardness, outstanding wear resistance, and very good corrosion and tarnish resistance.
With a gold content of 4.0 g/L Au and 3.0 g/L copper, the electrolyte produces brilliant rose gold coatings with thicknesses of up to 10 µm under optimum operating conditions.
The electrolyte is suitable for both decorative and technical applications and can be used for tank plating, pen plating, and brush plating.
