Plating On Beryllium/Copper Alloys
We are using the same cleaning process that’s used for other copper alloys that we plate. Invariably with the copper beryllium alloys, we see etching on the parts. How can we solve this problem?
Q. You probably have answered this question many times before, but I need a solution. I have difficulty plating copper on heat-treated beryllium copper alloys. We are using the same cleaning process that’s used for other copper alloys that we plate. Invariably with the copper beryllium alloys, we see etching on the parts. How can we solve this problem? J.W.
