Question

State the uses of elctroplating.

Answer 1

Hey Mate!!!!

Electroplating can also protect surfaces by covering them with a thin layer of metal that will be more resistant to corrosion than the material of which they are primarily composed. Zinc and cadmium protect the underlying surface by being more reactive, corroding before the base metal underneath. Copper, nickel and chromium work by forming a protective, un-reactive coating.


Gold and silver are excellent conductors of electricity, but they are, as noted, prohibitively expensive. Through electroplating techniques, very small amounts of these precious, highly conductive metals can be incorporated into electronic components and integrated circuits. Cell phones, computers and other electronic devices all use electroplating techniques in their circuits.

▶Here is ur answer

❇▶ Electroplating is used to apply metal coating on non metallic surfaces through electro chemical processes. Electroplating forms a protective barrier, reduces friction, and prevents tarnishing to name some of its benefits.

❇▶There are also different types of metal plating, including copper, nickel, zinc, and gold electroplating, as shown here.

❇▶Electroplating has a wide range of uses, and in some cases it can be customized to match nonmetal finishes, as you can see here. Besides protecting metals from corrosion, electroplating can be used for:

⚫ Decorative purposes

⚫ Protecting metals against corrosion

⚫ For electrical conductivity, often found in communication equipment

⚫ For industrial use, such as automobile parts

⚫ To improve premature tarnishing of many metalsUsed in aerospace and aviation

⚫To increase the thickness of a surfaceTo provide a smoother surface finish

❇▶Electroplating can be used in many surfaces, transforming them to match other metal pieces or to upgrade their resistance to atmospheric elements.
