Gray dots on semi-bright nickel plated hull cells
April 23, 2009
Hello all!
I have a important problem with semi-bright nickel hull-cell. On face of a Hull-Cell appear greyish dot after 15 minutes. Bath of nickel consist NiSO4:240g/l, NiCl2:60g/l and H3BO3:45g/l at 55 oC.
Thank you very much.

Hi, Giap. Send a photo of the hull cell if you can (try to get a piece of screening as the reflected image). Meanwhile, remember that a principal function of hull cell testing is to observe what happens at different current densities. So the first thing you should be noting is where these gray dots appear (low current density, mid, or high). Good luck.
Regards,
