General Description
Immersion Gold CF is a two part system suitable for producing thin gold films on metal surfaces via an electroless immersion process. The cyanide-free formulation offers reduced toxicity and improved compatibility vs. cyanide formulations. Immersion Gold CF takes advantage of EMF potential differences to plate gold films with good adhesion. Immersion Gold CF deposits gold on high – and low – phosphorus nickel as well as copper.
