BENCHBRITE CR-1100
Powder
Fluoride catalyst used in decorative chrome plating. Produces a bright, trouble-free, nickel-activating, stain-free deposit on bright nickel deposits. Allows higer cathode efficiencies and the use of higher current densities.
BENCHBRITE CR-1600
Liquid
A additive used in chrome plating solutions to supress fumes. Produces a stable foam blanket, reducing misting, thereby reducing the amount of chrome exhausted into the air and out of exhaust stacks. DOES NOT REDUCE SURFACE TENSION.
BENCHBRITE CR-1800
Liquid
A additive used in chrome plating solutions to supress fumes. Produces a stable foam blanket, reducing misting, and lowers the solution surface tension which reduces drag-out, thereby reducing the amount of chrome exhausted into the air and out of exhaust stacks. NOTE: BENCHMARK PRODUCTS recommends that a chrome plating bath be operated with a surface tension greater than 30 dynes per centimeter. Our experience has shown that operating at or below 30 dynes/cm can cause streaks and clouds in the chrome deposit.
