Abstract

See full text

The present invention provides a process for electroplating chromium using lead anodes while achieving the advantages of using methanesolfonic acid without suffering the excessive anode-corrosion characteristics associated with that acid. Accordingly, chromium is electrodeposited from a bath containing chromic acid, sulfate and an alkylpolysulfonic acid containing from one to about three carbon atoms. The invention also provides a plating process for chromium electrodeposition, a plating bath for use in the inventive process, and a replenishment composition for existing plating baths.
