Electroplating industry
The method of depositing a thin layer of other metals on the surface of metal parts is called electroplating. Electroplating is one of the most effective methods to increase metal protection performance and improve metal surface quality. When electroplating, metal parts are used as cathode, and the plated metal plates or rods are used as anodes, which are respectively hung on copper rods The top is immersed in the electrolyte containing the coating component, and DC is applied. Low toxic environmental complexing agent can form complex with many metals, so it can be used as the electrolyte for copper, cadmium, zinc and silver plating in the electroplating industry. Moreover, metal ion complexes in these electrolytes can be deposited on the surface of the workpiece to form a thin film, which plays a role in protecting metal products.
