Platega® blend Rh vs. Platega® blend Rh eco

With Platega® blend Rh and Platega® blend Rh eco, two perfectly matched platinum-rhodium electrolytes are available. They achieve the same visual outcome – but differ deliberately in technical and economic terms. This article helps you make the right decision for your application.

Platinum coating up to 10 µm – crack-free, homogeneous, brilliant

We are in the final development phase of a new platinum electrolyte that enables the deposition of exceptionally thick platinum layers up to 10 µm—crack-free, homogeneous, and with very uniform thickness distribution. Our innovation is specifically designed for applications that require platinum coatings up to 10 µm.

What alternatives are available to pure gold in the electroplating process?

The electroplating of gold layers plays a central role in decorative applications, in the jewellery industry and in spectacle frames. In view of rising raw material prices and the desire for more robust surfaces, classic 23-carat gold baths are coming under increasing pressure. In this context, alternatives to pure gold are becoming increasingly important.

Corrosion tests for functional surfaces

Technical components must function reliably even under demanding environmental conditions. Moisture, salty atmospheres, condensation or corrosive media can significantly impair the surface – and thus the function, service life and appearance – of a component.

Making Quality Visible – Corrosion Testing for Decorative Finishes

A decorative finish should not only look high-quality – it must also maintain its performance under real-life conditions over the long term. Sweat, moisture and sulphur-containing atmospheres can attack plated surfaces, leading to discolouration, corrosion and ultimately a reduced service life.
