    Abstract: A chromium electroplating electrolyte comprising a source of trivalent chromium ions, a complexant, a buffer agent and a sulphur species selected from sulphites and dithionites, the complexant being selected so that the stability constant K1 of the chromium complex as defined herein is in the range 10 M preferably the chromium ions have a molar concentration lower than 0.01M. Complexants within this range include aspartic acid, iminodiacetic acid, nitrilotriacetic acid, 5-sulphosalicylic acid and citric acid.

    Abstract: A very low concentration (below 0.03 M) trivalent chromium plating bath in which the source of chromium is an equilibrated aqueous solution of a chromium (III) - thiocyanate complex gives a deposit of unexpectedly light color. Such a bath is employed to produce thin overcoatings of light colored chromium for decorative applications. The bath and process is also used to plate the initial layer of a thick (greater than 5 micron) deposit for engineering applications, the major part of which is plated from a higher chromium concentration bath. Such thick deposits from a higher concentration bath are more cohesive and smoother when plated over an initial layer from the low concentration bath.

    Abstract: A process for plating thick chromium coatings for engineering applications comprises depositing a thin initial layer from a low concentration chromium III/thiocyanate bath and depositing the bulk of the remaining thickness from a relatively higher concentration chromium III/thiocyanate bath. Deposits produced by this two-stage process are more cohesive and smoother than those obtainable by plating the entire thickness from the high concentration bath alone.

    Abstract: A chromium electroplating electrolyte containing trivalent chromium ions, a complexant, a buffer agent and thiocyanate ions for promoting chromium deposition, the thiocyanate having a molar concentration lower than that of the chromium ions. The chromium preferably has a concentration lower than 0.01M. Preferably the complexant is selected so that the stability constant K1 of chromium complex is in the range 10 M . Complexants in this range include aspartic acid, iminodiacetic acid, nitrilotriacetic acid and 5-sulphosalicylic acid.

    Abstract: A chromium electroplating solution in which the source of chromium comprises an equilibrated aqueous solution of chromium (III) - thiocyanate complexes having supporting electrolyte consisting essentially of potassium sulphate or, preferably, a mixture of potassium and sodium sulphates. The solution is employed as the catholyte in a plating bath in which the catholyte and anolyte are separated by a cation exchange membrane. This all-sulphate bath permits the use of lead anodes, has high efficiency and a good plating range.
