Wetting agents are essential additives to nickel electroforming process solutions. They enable the small gas bubbles that inevitably form on the surface of the cathode, to be completely removed by the agitation process.
Hart Materials supplies wetting agents that are suitable for both pumped solution agitation – including the use of eductors – and air agitation. Although, air agitation is now becoming less popular within the industry for environmental reasons.
