High-quality platinum metal electrolytes for excellent coatings


In the world of electroplating, rhodium, palladium, platinum and ruthenium play a central role as precious platinum metals.

A little tip: Black ruthenium baths can quickly attack silverware. We therefore recommend effective pre-coating with palladium to achieve optimum results.

Palladium generally proves to be an excellent pre-coating for all other platinum metal coatings. Using palladium as a base lays the foundation for high-quality and long-lasting electroplating.

Find out more about our high-quality platinum metals and their possible applications by taking a look at the respective product descriptions.
