• Electrochemical cellRelated: An electrolytic cell drives the electrodeposition used to coat objects.

• Printed circuit boardRelated: Copper plating makes drilled through-holes conductive between board layers.

• Chemical vapor depositionCompared with: Electroplating uses a liquid electrolyte, unlike CVD's vapor-phase precursors.

• NickelRelated: Nickel coatings protect parts from corrosion and provide a base for decorative chromium plating.

• ElectrochemistryRelated: Controlled electrodeposition uses electrical current to alter material surfaces.

• Faraday's laws of electrolysisBroader topic: The laws predict coating mass from current and plating time.

• AnodeRelated: A soluble anode can supply metal ions that plate onto the cathode.

• CathodeRelated: Metal ions gain electrons at the cathode and form a coating.

• Electrochemical seriesRelated: Electrode potentials help determine deposition reactions and competing reductions.

• MetalworkingBroader topic: It adds a controlled surface layer for appearance or protection.

• CyanideRelated: Cyanide complexes have been used to control metal deposition in plating baths.

• Hexavalent chromiumRelated: Some plating baths use chromium(VI) compounds to produce hard, corrosion-resistant coatings.

• Hydrogen embrittlementRelated: Hydrogen produced during plating can remain in high-strength components.

• Zinc sulfateRelated: Zinc sulfate solutions can serve as electrolytes in zinc electrodeposition.

• Pyrophosphoric acidRelated: Pyrophosphate baths complex metal ions and support particular electrodeposition processes.

• Tin(II) chlorideNarrower topic: Tin(II) chloride supplies tin in some plating processes, though many baths use other tin salts.

• Trisodium phosphateRelated: Phosphate salts can feature in metal-treatment and plating formulations, including surface preparation.

• Cobalt(II) chlorideRelated: Cobalt chloride can supply cobalt ions in some cobalt-plating baths.

• Die-cast toyRelated: Chrome-like trim on some toys comes from a thin electroplated finish.
