Function and performance of nickel electroformed nameplates

Nickel electroforming nameplates are one of the common electroforming processes, typically using more nickel for silver nameplates and less for silver. Due to its close proximity to the effect of nickel electroformed silver, this industry is commonly referred to as nickel silver. The appearance of the nickel and silver nameplates looks very similar, both in shiny silver color. But the relatively stable characteristic is that the color of nickel electroformed can be relatively stable, and the lively naturalness is better than nickel silver, which is easy to oxidize into gray and black. This is because in many folk legends, silver will appear as dust instead of silver. Nameplates can be electroformed with many types of nickel, including copper, zinc alloy, iron, etc., to prepare various metal nameplates with surface effects.

Here are the characteristics and properties of nickel electroforming.

As shown in Figure 1, the nickel coating has high stability in air. Due to the strong passivation ability of metallic nickel, it can quickly produce a very thin passivation film surface layer, which is resistant to atmospheric conditions and certain acids and alkalis.
