The electroplating process consists of two main steps: (i) the mass transport of chromium ions through the electrolyte to the surface of the electrode, and (ii) the reduction of chromium ions at the cathode through chemical reactions. . The fundamental equations needed to model the system are: 2.1 Conservation Balances. The conservation of mass.
Hexavalent chromium plating baths are the most widely used baths to deposit chromium on metal. Hexavalent chromium baths are composed of chromic acid, sulfuric acid, and water.
This chapter contains sections titled: Principles. Theory of Chromium Electrodeposition. Hexavalent Chromium. Methods of Operations of Chromium Plating Solutions. Mixed Catalysts and Selfregulating Baths. Chromic Acid Baths: Operating Conditions. Throwing Power.
Hexavalent chromium is a known inhalation irritant and associated with respiratory cancer and it is primarily associated with the chrome plating and anodizing process and emissions from chromate-treated cooling towers.
Chromium plating is traditionally made from a solution of chromic acid (CrO3 which forms H 2 CrO 4 after dissolving in water) and sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4) using insoluble anodes. The chromium is reduced to metal from the hexavalent state due to the catalytic effect of sulfate ions.
Alternative methods of exposure monitoring are available which can be chosen in place of, or complementary to, ongoing air sampling. This sheet explains what exposure monitoring means in practice and the options available to the electroplating industry to enable compliance with the law.
Hexavalent chromium in electroplating: Prevention and Control of Chromic Acid Mist. Introduction. Soluble hexavalent chromium compounds, and in particular chromic acid (chromium trioxide), are commonly used as electrolytes in electroplating and anodising.
