🤔 Did you know that the Electroplating ELIX ABS guideline is now available? ✅ Chrome plating technology provides functionality, exclusive technical properties and aesthetics to decorative parts in several sectors such as automotive, consumer goods, appliances, cosmetics and healthcare 💪. ✅ Due to the presence of butadiene particles, ABS is the most used polymer for chrome plating applications, followed by ABS/PC blends. The optimisation of factors involving ABS formulation, injection moulding parameters and the plating process is key to obtaining the desired properties and quality of the final parts. ✅ In the ELIX electroplating guideline 📰 you will find information about all these aspects, as well as more details about how the ELIX plating portfolio is optimised to guarantee the lowest scrap rate possible during plating. In addition, this guideline includes a troubleshooting section for solving the most common defects in the electroplating process.
