The chemical and physicalproperties of the deposit vary primarily with its phosphoruscontent and subsequent heat treatment. The chemical makeupof the plating solution and the use of the solution can affect theporosity and cor

For moredetails, see ASTM STP 265 (1)2and Refs (2)(3)(4) and (5).1.3 The coatings are generally deposited from acidic solu-tions operating at elevated temperatures.1.4 The process produces coatings of uniform thickness onirregularly shaped parts, provided the platin

They are also used for the salvage ofworn o

These coatings are used in applications requiring abra-sion and wear resistance.1.7 Lower phosphorus deposits in the range between 1 and3 % phosphorus are al

These coatings areused in electronic applications providing solderability, bond-ability, increased electrical conductivity, and resistance tostrong alkali solutions.1.8 The medium phosphorous coatings (5 to 9 % P) are mostwidely used to meet the general purpose requirements of w
