Title: Monitoring EN bath
Post by: pcm81 on March 13, 2019, 12:21:46 PM
Usually when I do EN plating i mix up the bath, use it, plate it out and throw away. Now i am looking to mix up a big batch and keep the bath, monitoring it and maintaining it. I am curious what titrations i can do to monitor the health of this EN bath

30g NiCl
10g Sodium hypo phosphate
12.6g sodium citrate
5g sodium acetate

all per liter of H2O

Looking to titrate for nickel and hypophosphate specifically since those are the consumables, but naturally happy to monitor other parameters as applicable to health of the bath

Thanks
