Reasons for large consumption of brightener in production with potassium chloride zinc plating additive

    In the production process of using potassium chloride zinc plating additive, we sometimes find that the consumption of brightener is relatively large, and we need to add more brightener than usual to meet the brightness of the workpiece, which will increase the production cost.So what is the reason for the large consumption of brightener?

    According to the site experience and the characteristics of the product potassium chloride zinc plating additive BZ-528, Bigolly Technology analyzed the following two points:

    1. The plating solution is not filtered clean after being treated with activated carbon.Because activated carbon can absorb organic impurities in the plating solution, the dispersion ability and brightness of the workpiece coating can be improved after filtration.When activated carbon is not filtered clean, it will continue to absorb brightener, resulting in insufficient brightness of the workpiece, which requires adding more brightener to improve brightness.Therefore, after using activated carbon to treat the plating solution, we should ensure that the activated carbon in the plating solution is filtered clean, and replace the filter element if necessary.

    2. The effective concentration of brightener used is low.Some brightener suppliers will use cheap substitutes due to the rising price of raw materials, or reduce the concentration of brightener by adding water, so that more brightener will be needed in the process of adding.Therefore, the brightener should be selected with high purity, such as BZ-528.Its formula adopts imported raw materials, the purity of brightener is high, the consumption in the production process is low, the maintenance is simple, and the production cost is effectively saved for customers.

    Therefore, we should pay attention to the above two points in the production process of using potassium chloride zinc plating additive, so as to solve the problem as soon as possible and improve the production efficiency.If you are interested in potassium chloride zinc plating additives, please contact Bigolly customer service for free samples and detailed technical information!
