Electroplating RhParameters for Electroplating (electrodeposition) of Rhodium

Hy, I'm a student and I wanted to ask you if you happen to have the parameters for electroplating with Rh. I wanted to plate Cu wires of various dimensions and I needed the counts of the quantity of substances, the concentration of the salt, the temperature, the potential...thank you
best regards,

Hello Nita. It's not clear to me why you are doing this. If you are doing it to get serviceable rhodium plated wires, the best path is to send them to a plating jobshop. Lacking that, you should buy a commercially available proprietary rhodium plating bath, which benefits from decades of development. If you are doing it solely as a learning experience, to find out how electroplating works, you will find the formulations in most of the "must have" plating books.
