| Description |
Zinc electrodeposits are widely used to protect iron
and steel from corrosion. Zinc coatings are presently
obtained from chloride, sulfate, mixed chloride and
sulfate, cyanide and non-cyanide alkaline baths.
Atmospheric corrosion is associated with the use
of chloride electrolytes. The use of additives, low
cathode efficiency and the costly effluent treatment
discourage the use of non-cyanide alkaline zinc
plating baths. Hence, a better quality zinc plating
electrolyte is necessary. In this paper, the authors
present a detailed investigation of zinc plating from
non-cyanide based acetate electrolytes and the effect
of thiamine hydrochloride and gelatin as additives to
produce quality bright deposits. The bath and deposit
characteristics of acetate-based zinc plating was studied
and the results are presented.
