                   Forbrite chrome plating process was designed as a low concentration and ligh throw bath.

                   It provides a very wide bright plate range.

              Ⅰ. Advantages:

                         1. High current efficiency, 25% is attainable, low energy consumption.

                         2. Wide bright plate range.

                         3. Excellent covering power.

                         4. Addition of sulfuric acid is not required.

             Ⅱ. Bath compositions and operating conditions :
