Functions and addition of the brighteners

● Suitable for barrel nickel plating；
● High-speed brightening with excellent leveling；
● Spotless white and esthetic deposit with good ductility；
● Even nickel layer results from excellent covering power and throwing power；
● Thick brightener with small consumption ；
● Very easy conversion from most bright nickel-plating system by direct addition.

●　Fill up a preparatory tank to two-third of the volume with water， and heat it up to 65-70。C；add NiSO4.6H2O and NiCL2.6H2O, and mix them up until they are completely dissolved.
　　Add NiCO3 or 4% NaOH and adjust the PH level to 5.2.  
●　Add 2.5ml/l H2O2(diluted in water) and 2.5ml/l active carbon, and mix them up for several hours. After precipitation for a whole night, filter the solution carefully into the working tank. Now rinse the filter pump and then put in some active carbon. 
●　Add H3BO3 and adjust the PH level to 4.0 with diluted H2SO4 
●　Electrolyze the solution at 0.1-0.5 A/m2 with waved pseufdo-cathode for over 12 hours, or until the deposit in LCD is changed from dark to beige.
●　Finally, add the above additives, and get the solution ready for use. 
 


●　Working tank：　plastic-lined steel tanks or plastic tanks 
●　Circulating filtration： the solution can be filtered at least 4 times within one hour. It can achieve a better effect if the filtration pump is added with  0.6g/l active carbon between each 40 working hours.　　



Opening agent HN-R200：for new solution or conversion 
Brightener HN-R100：brightening and leveling. Without it the coat will become obscure, rough,  fragile, influencing low potential area coverage.
HN- advanced nickel additive:　the inner softener and assistant make the coat softer and improve the distribution and coverage with a better movement. During the plating， HN- advanced nickel additive and brightener  HN-R100 shall be added at 1：1. 


HN-R100 brightener consumption： 100-150ml/KAh
