High-performance electrolyte for maximum throughput
Why Platega® blend Rh?
When process speed, headroom and stability are critical, Platega® blend Rh is the right choice.
It offers maximum performance with an identical appearance compared with the eco variant.
Features & Benefits
- Faster deposition → higher throughput
- Higher precious metal content → more stable process
- Very white, brilliant surfaces (L* = 89, a = +1, b = +4)
- High reproducibility & process reliability
- RoHS and REACH compliant
- Cost-effective alternative to pure rhodium electrolytes
Application
- Series jewellery production
- Eyewear and watch industry
- Electrical contacts
- Demanding electronic components
FAQ
Why should I choose Platega® blend Rh instead of the eco variant?
Platega® blend Rh offers higher process performance and faster deposition. When short cycle times, high process reliability and reproducible results are critical, this variant is the better choice.
What is the advantage compared with Platega® blend Rh eco?
- Faster plating → higher throughput
- Higher precious metal content → more stable, more robust process
- Larger operating window for challenging applications
- Higher layer thicknesses possible
- More headroom for demanding applications and series production
Is there any downside compared with the eco variant?
Yes – due to the higher precious metal content, the initial bath cost is higher and drag-out losses are greater than with Platega® blend Rh eco. For very thin layers or strongly cost-driven applications, the eco variant may be more economical.
Does the appearance differ from the eco version?
No. Appearance, whiteness and the rhodium look are identical.
The difference is not in the result, but in performance vs cost-effectiveness.
Which product is right for me?
That depends on your focus:
- Performance & throughput → Platega® blend Rh
- Cost & resource efficiency → Platega® blend Rh eco
