Electroless Plating the Inside of a Large Container

Q. WE HAVE A BIG CONTAINER THAT HAS A 4 METER LENGTH AND 3 METER DIAMETER. HOW IT CAN BE ELECTROLESSLY PLATED INTERNALLY? ANY IDEA?

A. Hi Pedram. You have not told us what this container is or its material of construction, but tanker cars have been electroless nickel plated. Most articles about are a bit dated and you'll probably make better progress using the tradename "Kanigen" rather than 'electroless nickel'.

Try a literature search of "Tanker car Kanigen" at surfacequery.com or scholar.google.com

Luck and Regards,
