Hydrogen Embrittlement Problem
This concerns the hydrogen embrittlement problems faced in plating of sensitive material like springs. Is Anodic E Coating a better option? Especially since hydrogen tends to migrate towards the cathode? E coating process time is also much less than plating and is followed by baking at 185 degrees.
