Hard chrome plating books

---

Please tell me more about hard chrome plating, for example the ideal current density, voltage, temperature, solution percentages, etc.

I'm starting a hard chrome plant for rollers and plastic molds.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi, Remberto. There is a lot to it, so you're probably asking for a book or two, not a paragraph or two.

You can try Chromium Plating by R. Weiner, or Guffie's book The Handbook of Hard Chromium Plating. As an alternative you might get hold of old issues of Metal Finishing magazine and read what Clarence Peger has to say.
