Electroplating is achieved by passing an electric current through a solution containing dissolved metal ions as well as the metal object to be plated. The metal object acts as a cathode in an electrochemical cell, attracting metal ions from the solution. Ferrous and nonferrous metal objects are typically electroplated with aluminum, brass, bronze, cadmium, chromium, copper, iron, lead, nickel, tin, and zinc, as well as precious metals such as gold, platinum, and silver. Common electroplating bath solutions are listed in Table 7-1. 

Electroplating is used to provide decoration, to resist corrosion and to improve the mechanical or electrical properties of metals, plastics and rubber. The metals used for plating include brass, bronze, cadmium, copper, chromium, gold, nickel, silver and tin. It is important to first clean the part to be plated.

Silver Brazed Joints These are similar to soldered joints except that a temperature of about 600°C (1100°F) is required. A 15 percent silver, 80 percent copper, 5 percent phosphorus solder is used for copper and copper alloys, while 45 percent silver, 15 percent copper, 16 percent zinc, 24 percent cadmium solders are used for copper, copper alloys, carbon steel, and alloy steel. Silver-brazed joints are used for temperatures up to 200°C (400°F). Cast-bronze fittings and valves with preinserted rings of 15 percent silver, 80 percent copper, 5 percent phosphorus brazing alloy are available. 

Contact of brass, bronze, copper or the more resistant stainless steels with the 13% Cr steels in sea-water can lead to accelerated corrosion of the latter. Galvanic contact effects on metals coupled to the austenitic types are only slight with brass, bronze and copper, but with cadmium, zinc, aluminium and magnesium alloys, insulation or protective measures are necessary to avoid serious attack on the non-ferrous material. Mild steel and the 13% chromium types are also liable to accelerated attack from contact with the chromium-nickel grades. The austenitic materials do not themselves suffer anodic attack in sea-water from contact with any of the usual materials of construction. 

Tin coatings are widely used in the electrical industry because of their good contact properties and in the food industry because of low toxicity. In addition to pure tin coatings a number of alloy coatings have been developed for special applications, e.g. tin-lead (terne plate), tin-zinc, tin-cadmium, tin-bronze and tin-nickel. Reference should be made to Section 13.5 and to the publication by Britton for data on the corrosion of tin and its alloys. 

Electroplating. Typical wastes produced include spent process solutions containing copper, nickel, chromium, brass, bronze, zinc, tin, lead, cadmium, iron, aluminum, and compounds formed from these metals. 

Corrosion within the tower itself is due mainly to the particular conditions existing therein (air, humidity and temperature) and also to the chemical treatment of the water. All construction materials exposed to these conditions must be selected carefully. Hardware and piping for distribution headers have been successfully made with hot-dipped galvanized steel, cadmium-coated steel, stainless steel and silicon bronze. 

In addition to the alloys listed in Table 6.3, bronze has been known since ancient times. Bronze is 70-95% copper, 1-25% zinc, and 1-18% tin. Bronze is not used extensively in jewelry, but it is used for casting sculptures and medals that must remain permanently in good condition. Another alloy, Wood s metal, made of 50% bismuth, 25% lead, 13% tin, and 12% cadmium, has such a low melting point, about 70°C, that it would not be suitable for jewelry use.5... 

PMS liquids are corrosion-inert substances. Under normal conditions and heated to 100-150 °C they do not cause corrosion and for a long period of time do not change in airflow when in contact with aluminum and magnesium alloys, bronzes, carbon and doped steels, as well as titanium alloys. PMS liquids do not change their properties under 100 °C in air for 200 hours in contact with the above-listed alloys as well as with beryllium, bismuth, cadmium, Invar alloy, brass, copper, mel-chior, solder, lead, silver. The stability of the properties of PMS liquids in these conditions is usually accompanied by the absence of metal and alloy corrosion, although the colour of the metal surface may slightly change. 

Bullet jacket materials include gilding metal cupronickel cupronickel-coated steel nickel zinc-, chromium-, or copper-coated steel lacquered steel brass nickel- or chromium-plated brass copper bronze aluminum/alumi-num alloy Nylon (Nyclad), Teflon- and cadmium-coated steel (rare). Black Talon bullets have a black molybdenum disulfide coating over the metal bullet jacket which acts as a dry lubricant. Steel jackets are frequently coated both inside and outside as an anticorrosion measure. Gilding metal is by far the most common bullet jacket material. Tin is claimed to have lubricating properties and is sometimes incorporated in bullet jacket material. The alloy is known as Lubaloy or Nobaloy and contains 90% copper, 8% zinc, and 2% tin. 

By varying parameters such as jet design, pressure and volume of the atomizing fluid, and density of the liquid metal stream, it is possible to control the overall particle size and shape. In principle, atomization is applicable to all metals that can be melted, and is commercially used for the production of iron, steels, alloy steels, copper, brass, bronze, and other low-melting-point metals such as aluminium, tin, lead, zinc, and cadmium.

An alloy is a substance that has metallic properties and is composed of two or more chemical elements, at least one of which is a metal. The elements composing the alloy are not distinguishable by the unaided eye. Examples of alloy coating include gold-copper-cadmium, zinc-cobalt, zinc-iron, zinc-nickle, brass (an alloy of copper and zinc), bronze (copper-tin), tin-zinc, tin-nickle, and tin-cobalt. Alloy coatings are produced by plating two metals from the same solution. 

Alloys of copper include those with zinc (brass), tin (bronze), nickel (money metal), aluminum, gold, lead, cadmium, chromium, beryllium, silicon, or phosphoms (Scheinberg 1971). Copper is a major constituent of many metallic amalgams, for...
