UMICORE ANTITARNISH 616 PLUS

Product catalog summary
Overview: Umicore Antitarnish 616 Plus is a heavy metal-free antitarnish process designed to protect silver and other metallic surfaces from tarnishing. Utilizing nanotechnology, it forms a protective layer that prevents oxidation and discoloration.
Key Features:
  • Free from Cr (VI) compounds, making it biologically safe and hypoallergenic.
  • Dirt and water repellent, reducing fingerprint sensitivity.
  • Suitable for various plating methods including rack, barrel, and reel-to-reel plating.
Applications: Primarily used for silver and other metallic surfaces to enhance resistance against tarnishing agents like potassium sulfide and ammonia sulfide solutions.
Technical Specifications:
  • Electrolyte Type: Aqueous immersion process free from heavy metals.
  • pH Value: 3.7 (range 3.5 - 4) at operating temperature.
  • Operating Temperature: 55 - 65 °C.
  • Voltage: 3.5 - 4.5 V.
  • Anode Material: MMO (PLATINODE® 187 SO).
Performance: The product demonstrates superior resistance in various sulfide tests, with the 616 Plus variant showing the highest resistance (+++ rating) in K2S, (NH4)2S, and Na2S tests.

UMICORE ANTITARNISH 616 PLUS-1

UMICORE ANTITARNISH 616 PLUS Heavy Metal Free Antitarnish Process for Silver Umicore Antitarnish 616 is a medium based on nano-technology for protecting silver against tarnishing. Special nanopolymers absorb on the silver surface and cross-link to form a protective layer of a few nanometers thickness. The invisible layer protects the base material from oxidation and discoloration. Through the additional use of Umicore Antitarnish 616 Makeup Salt PLUS, as well as the application of an electrical voltage, Umicore Antitarnish 616 can be applied even better and more securely to the surfaces to be protected. Thus, not only silver surfaces, but also other metallic surfaces can be protected from oxidation and discoloration. In comparison with antitarnish processes available on the market, it is possible to improve the resistance of protected silver surfaces enormously, e.g. in 2% K2S solutions. • Antitarnish process for silver and other metallic surfaces • Silver and other metallic surfaces • Free from the Cr (VI) compounds restricted in use • Biologically safe, skin-friendly and hypoallergenic • Dirt and water repellent • Reduces the fingerprint sensitivity of the surfaces • Suitable for rack, barrel and reel-to-r
