Schloetter Plating Processes
  
Palladium Processes 

Palladium 451

A weakly alkaline process for high speed, selective plating, in continuous lines producing a semi-bright to bright appearance.

Excellent bonding and solderability are seen together with low porosity and freedom from cracking.

 


Palladium 456

A brilliant, high gloss process designed for decorative applications e.g. spectacle frames and jewellery. Deposits of up to 3 µm are used and it is suitable for both rack and barrel plating.

 


Palladium 459

Palladium 459 is a weakly alkaline electrolyte for the deposition of light, bright coatings up to a thickness of 0.5 µm.

This process is ideal for use as a palladium strike bath.

 

Palladium-Nickel Processes 

Palladium-Nickel 462

Palladium-Nickel 462 produces crack- free bright deposits containing 70 - 80% Palladium, dependant upon bath composition.

The corrosion resistant coatings have a hardness of 620 HV and can be deposited in either rack or barrel applications.

 


Palladium-Nickel 468

This process is an ammoniacal, high speed electrolyte for the deposition of Palladium-Nickel coatings containing 70 - 80% Palladium.

Ideally suited to reel-to-reel and jet plating techniques, Palladium-Nickel 466 produces ductile deposits of Palladium-Nickel with a hardness of 580 - 620 HV.

 

Platinum Processes 

Platinum K

Platinum K, is used for the deposition of smooth and brilliant platinum coatings of a light colour up to a coating thickness of 1μm.

The hardness of the coating is approximately 500 - 700 HV. It has a wide operating range and is suitable for rack and barrel.
