Titanium Plating

I need information about the plating of titanium onto aluminium and nickel

Titanium is extremely difficult to plate. Some research has been done on plating it out of a nasty organic solution , with marginal results. With advances in vapor deposition technology, there is zero reason to mess around trying to plate it. There are quite a few people in the US and Canada that do job shop work and a lot of folks that would like to sell you the expensive equipment to do it yourself.

Dear Sirs,

I want to know about Titanium-nitrizing electrochemical plating. It will be very happy for if I will receive some references about titanium-nitrizing electrochemical plating.

Thank you,

I've never heard of such a thing, Mr. Manh, and doubt that it exists. Titanium nitride is applied with a vacuum (PVD) process, not electrochemically.
