Electroless Plating Compatible with Sulfur

2005

What other electroless platings are available?

I have found that Electroless Nickel works very well with rubber with cure systems other than a sulfur cure.

So, now I am looking for an electroless plating that is compatible with sulfur cured rubber.

Thanks,
