Gold properties when plated from sulfite bath
Anybody can give me some idea of physical properties of plated gold from a sulfite bath? I am looking for information such as microhardness (HK or HV), youngs' modulus, etc. Thanks.

I would recommend that you purchase "Properties of Electrodeposited Metals and Alloys" a handbook, second edition, Wm H. Safranek author.
This will let you compare lots of different types of gold plate. This is a lifetime type reference book that should be had by any firm using electroplating.
