  • Electroplating nickel using anodes of flattened nickel forms
    Patent number: 4119501
    Abstract: Nickel forms, such as pellet and shot, are useful as electroplating anode materials; however, due to their small size, it is difficult to retain the nickel forms within conventionally used titanium mesh plating baskets. Nickel forms that have been work flattened are readily retained in conventional anode baskets and provide, in addition, a surprising increase in activity and a desirable coarse residue.
