Electroplating-
the principles, how different metals can be used and the
practical applications

Introduction
| Iron and
brass are two widely used and easily available metals
used in manufacturing parts. Although these two metals
are inexpensive, easy to form and strong, they both rust
and corrode in the air. To prevent rusting, they are
often covered with oil, plastic, paint or a layer of
other metals that don't rust such as chromium. |

Project
description
In this project you will experiment electroplating and deposit a
layer of one metal in the other. Although the purpose of this
project is learning the principals of electroplating, you may
choose to study the effect of different variables such as
temperature and pH on the process of electroplating. Adult
supervision and safety precautions are required while working
with chemicals and hazardous objects. |
