BLUCLAD® 8618
Gold-nickel-indium above 23 kt
BLUCLAD® 8618 is a process for the electrodeposition of gold above 23 carats, alloyed with nickel and indium. The deposit is suitable both as an intermediate layer before the final colour coat and as a finishing layer, with colour coordinates that depend on the concentration of the alloying metals and on the operating conditions. The alloy passes the nickel release test according to EN ISO 1811:2015. The bath is used on rack and barrel.
