Copper

alchemist co has been a pioneer in developing copper plating solutions, continually adapting to the evolving demands of industries like PCB and electronics. Copper's desirable properties, including excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, throwing power, low hardness, and bright ductile deposits, make it a versatile metal in electroplating.

Copper coatings are often used as intermediate layers to enhance corrosion resistance and adhesion before applying other metals like nickel, silver, tin, and chrome. Schlötter's portfolio includes bright copper systems for plastic and decorative applications, as well as BV and TH filling and superfilling processes for the PCB and electronics industry.

Key Applications of Copper Plating:

1. Plating of Plastics (POP): Decorative and functional coatings for plastic substrates.
2. Decorative Coatings (GMF): Aesthetic finishes for various applications.
3. PCB Manufacturing: Essential for printed circuit board production.
4. Electronics: Used in various electronic components and assemblies.
5. Electroforming: Creating complex metal parts through electrodeposition
