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