Conductive filament exists, but it takes more than that to 3D print something like a circuit board. The main issue is that traces made from conductive filament are basically resistors; they don’t act ...

[A_Steingrube] has posted a guide to his favorite method of copper electroplating. Plating copper onto other metals is popular with the steampunk crowd, but it does have other uses. Copper plate is ...

A range of production processes frequently employ acid mixtures comprised of two or three acids; for example, nitric acids, sulfuric acids and hydrochloric acids. In order to use these acids safely ...

How do you make old rusty hardware like new again without having to visit a plating shop or buy new fasteners? This process can be performed at home with Eastwood's Tin-Zinc Electroplating System. It ...

Modern power systems rely on copper and aluminium components that operate reliably over many years, without sudden drops in conductivity or unexpected failures. It is the well-designed coating ...

Modern navigation systems rely heavily on satellite timing, and that dependence has become a growing vulnerability. GPS ...

Copper electrodeposition is a vital process in the fabrication of microelectronic interconnects, battery components and decorative coatings. By utilising carefully formulated electrolytes and ...

Electroplating is a simple and low-cost process that produces a uniform and dense coating with good adhesion to the substrate. This method is also suitable for coating complex-shaped interconnects.

Silver electroplating and electrodeposition techniques represent a cornerstone in modern materials science, merging fundamental electrochemical principles with advanced engineering practices. These ...

Hollow nanosized needles, or nanostraws, are a promising tool for opening up tiny, temporary holes in cell membranes to deliver molecules or sample a cell’s contents. Nanostraws could also deliver ...

New study shows how complexing agents and predictive models can improve nickel electroplating for alkaline water electrolysis ...

Typically, dc power supplies provide a well-regulated current or voltage level that is preset and then the supply turned on and off as needed. This is the typical function of a power supply in an ...
