Bright Nickel
Bright nickel plating is the process of electroplating nickel in order to create a levelled, ductile and bright nickel deposit. The mirror-like coating is suitable for concealing polishing lines and any light material surface defects.
NI 2600 BRIGHT NICKEL PLATING PROCESS
Physical Properties:
NI 2600 BRIGHTENER: Liquid
NI 2610 CARRIER: Liquid
NI 2620 MAKE UP: Liquid
NICKEL WETTING AGENT: Liquid
Description
NI 2600 is a bright nickel process, which is especially developed for rack plating.
NI 2600 produces fully bright, ductile, excellent levelled nickel deposits. The process distinguishes by a very good throwing power, and the deposits can be easily chromium plated.
Equipment
Tank: SM-steel tanks with hard rubber or synthetic lining or synthetic tanks.
Heating: Hard glass or porcelain immersion heater. Eventually indirect heating. It is essential to use thermostat-controlled heating.
Filtration: For high capacity bright nickel bath, a continual filtration is necessary. The electrolyte should be rotated once per hour. A continuous filtration over active carbon is recommended.
Anodes: If the nickel anodes have the prescribed degree of purity, at least, 99.7% any kind may be employed. To keep sludge and other impurities away from the electrolytes, the anodes should be packed in titanium anodes baskets with polypropylene anode bags.
New anode bags should be treated in a 5% sodium carbonate solution. Then they must be rinsed very thoroughly. Afterwards, the bags have to be dipped into hydrochloric acid, 10% by vol. and again very well rinsed.

KM TOP SHINE NICKEL BRIGHT NICKEL PLATING PROCESS
Physical Properties:
KM TOP SHINE NICKEL MAKE UP: Liquid
KM TOP SHINE NICKEL MAINTENANCE: Liquid
NICKEL WETTING AGENT: Liquid
Description
KM TOP SHINE NICKEL is a bright nickel process which produces fully bright, ductile, well-levelled nickel deposits. The process distinguishes by a very good throwing power, and the deposits can be easily chromium plated.
KM TOP SHINE NICKEL is developed for both rack & barrel plating.
Equipment
Tank: PP or mild-steel tanks line with PVC.
Heating: Hard glass, Quartz or porcelain immersion heater. It is essential to use thermostat-controlled heating.
Filtration: For high capacity bright nickel bath, a continual filtration through 10 micron cartridge is necessary. The electrolyte should be rotated once per hour. A continuous filtration over active carbon is recommended.
Anodes: If the nickel anodes have the prescribed degree of purity, at least, 99.7% any kind may be employed. To keep sludge and other impurities away from the electrolytes, the anodes should be packed in titanium anodes baskets with polypropylene anode bags.
New anode bags should be treated in a 5% sodium carbonate solution. Then they must be rinsed very thoroughly. Afterwards, the bags have to be dipped into sulphuric acid, 10% by vol. and again very well rinsed.
