Advantages Over Existing Trivalent
Chromium Chemistries:
Lower Carbon in deposit alloy, maintaining color stability over time

Eliminates the need for numerous additives, complexing agents, and chelation chemistry
No post dip required
Up to 0.5 microns thickness, provides a uniform bright deposit that closely matches Hex deposit color.
Easily deposits over Electroless Nickel (NiP alloys) providing greater application development and improved corrosion performance for complex shape geometries
Easier to operate, process provides a self-regulating pH system, similar to a Hex process
Anodes do not require membranes
Easily deposits over brass substrates, eliminating the need for Nickel in certain applications
Provides a wider range of operational parameters versus existing Trivalent systems on the market
Eliminates need for costly ion exchange resins and equipment required for most aqueous trivalent solutions on the market
Higher cathode efficiencies and higher plating throughput equates to lower cost
Eliminates creation of hexavalent chromium by-product often experienced with aqueous trivalent chemistry systems
