Plating Solutions
(Sulfuric Acid)

 

Plating is widely used in familiar, everyday items such as in smartphones and tablets, PCs, automobiles, and accessories.
"Mekki" is the Japanese word for plating. Although the term may seem like it originated from a foreign loanword, mekki is actually Japanese in origin.
Plating has an unexpectedly long history. Overseas, it has been used since the BC era, and in Japan, it has also been used since long ago, from the Kofun period.
Plating has many expansive roles such as improving appearance, corrosion resistance, and abrasion resistance, and for function and performance. Just as plating serves many purposes, there are also many kinds of plating techniques.

Plating Solutions (Sulfuric Acid)

Case Study(Sterilization)

Degreasing

Acid Cleaning

Surface Activity

Metal Plating

Post-Processing

Drying

Metal Plating

Maintaining Proper Concentration

Concentration of sulfuric acid used in the plating solution is controlled.
By controlling the process and adjusting the components, the plating solution can remain stable and it can keep finished products more consistent.

Comparison With Other Principles

Alternatively, using conductivity meters instead of in-line refractometers is an option. Some customers prefer refractometers for safety reasons and to avoid troublesome sensor replacement.
