Product information "Tin"
Tin Solution - Tin Electrolyte - self tinning from Betzmann Galvanik
Our versatile tin plating solution is used in applications ranging from the cookware industry to high-end electronics.
Recommended electrode: platinum electrode or graphite electrode
From 3 volts
Can be plated on copper, nickel or thin gold layer
Please note: This is an air sensitive solution. When not using the solution, keep the lid tightly closed and take steps to minimize air space in the bottle.
You can do this by adding marbles or glass beads to the bottle, squeezing out the excess air at the top of the bottle, or drawing up the solution and storing it in one of our storage syringes.
Failure to follow the above precautions may result in degeneration of the tin in the solution.
