Nickel plating

Nickel plating is a process where a thin layer of nickel is applied to the surface of an object, often made of metal. This is done to enhance the object's resistance to corrosion, wear, and tarnishing, as well as to improve its appearance. The process typically involves electrolysis, where an electrical current helps deposit nickel ions from a solution onto the surface of the item. Nickel plating is commonly used in various industries, including automotive and electronics, to protect and enhance the durability of components. It can also provide a bright, shiny finish that improves the visual appeal of products.
