E-Brite Ultra Cu RTP
E-Brite Ultra Cu Ready to Plate – Non-Cyanide, Non-Pyrophosphate Alkaline Copper Plating
E-Brite Ultra Cu RTP plates directly on steel, copper, brass, stainless steel, zincated aluminum, electroless nickel and most new high quality properly prepared zinc diecastings in both rack and barrel installations. Leaded alloys can be plated in rack lines. E-Brite Ultra Cu RTP is free of chelating agents. It eliminates necessity of striking in cyanide copper. One bath serves as both strike and plate bath. It the meets requirements of MIL-C-14550 B and AMS 2418F.
E-Brite Ultra Cu RTP eliminates potential health and environmental liability and the high cost of waste treating the cyanide. Accidental drag-in of E-Brite Ultra Cu RTP into an acid copper solution poses no health hazards due to evolution of poisonous cyanide gas as with cyanide copper. The solution does not have to be treated for carbonates as with cyanide solutions.
Copper Plating Benefits:
-
One solution serves as both a strike and a plate bath.
-
Eliminates the inherent dangers of cyanide in the work place and improves employee health and safety.
-
Eliminates the concern for a catastrophic accidental acidification of cyanide.
-
No cyanide in F-006 sludges.
-
No danger of cyanide if a fire occurs in a plant.
-
Eliminates waste treatment costs for destroying cyanide.
-
Lower copper concentration which means less sludge generation.
-
No carbonates to be treated. No carbonate sludge containing cyanide.
-
Eliminates the Toxic Release Inventory report for cyanide.
-
The accidental drag-in of E-Brite Ultra-Cu into an acid copper solution poses no health hazards.
-
Reduces fire and liability insurance premiums.
-
E-Brite Ultra-Cu has excellent bath stability and high efficiency. The bath does not have to be dumped as with other baths due to breakdown products or iron buildup.
-
The bath is easily maintained by monitoring the pH and copper metal concentration.
-
It has a very wide operating window.
-
It is easily installed in existing plating lines with only a new liner required for the cyanide copper tank.
-
One tank of E-Brite Ultra-Cu serves the purpose of both the copper strike and the copper plate.
-
E-Brite Ultra-Cu is supplied as a liquid concentrate which is diluted with water.
