Eletroplating solution for Fe20Ni80 permalloy

I am a high school sophomore.

Can any one suggest electroplating solution and plateup conditions for Fe20Ni80 permalloy?I want to do a science project that allows permalloy and copper plateup using same solution.

Hi, Harsha.

It's not clear to me whether you want to plate permalloy and copper onto something else or whether you want to plate something else (anything else?) onto permalloy and copper.

Plating permalloy onto anything is quite ambitious for a science project, but letter 22346 will tell you how to do it. I don't see how you can plate copper out of the same plating bath as permalloy because the metals have to be dissolved into the solution before you can plate them out. Good luck.
