Copper/Decorative

Decorative copper coatings are characterised by very good electrical and thermal conductivity, excellent throwing power, low hardness, high ductility and bright gloss. Copper coatings are also used as intermediate layers to improve corrosion resistance and adhesion before nickel plating, silver plating, tin plating and chrome plating. Schlötter’s portfolio includes both pre-copper (cyanide and cyanide-free) and bright copper systems for plastic and decorative applications.

Decorative copper is used

as an intermediate layer with high levelling or for copper plating when higher layer thicknesses are required, e.g. in electroforming.
