               Alternatives to Cyanide Cadmium Electroplating

Cadmium has long been considered an ideal metal for many applications
especially in the aircraft and aerospace industries. Until recently there
were few alternatives to the use of high cyanide processes to electroplate
cadmium and even fewer alternatives to the use of cadmium itself.

Today A Brite Company is proud to offer several alternatives to cyanide
cadmium plating.

Cad Glo AC: A cyanide-free, bright, high performance acid cadmium plating
process. Cad Glo AC operates in both rack and barrel appellations without
solvents or chelating agents. Hydrogen embrittlement is low and the deposit
readily accepts the full range of chromate conversion coatings. Difficult
to plate metals, such as stainless steel, can often be plated directly in
Cad Glo AC.

Cad Glo NC: A high performance, near-neutral, cyanide-free cadmium plating
process. Cad Glo NC's low metal formulation further reduces contamination
of rinses with heavy metals. Chromate receptivity is excellent and hydrogen
embrittlement. is low.

Zincalloy C: A unique non-chelated, non-cyanide, non-ammoniated zinc-cobalt
alloy plating process. Zincalloy C bath chemistry allows for high plating
efficiencies and reduced cycle time along with complete elimination of
cadmium. The easy to chromate deposits exhibit outstanding corrosion
resistance.

A Brite Company also offers a complete range of chromate conversion coating
   processes, lacquers and rust preventives for use on zinc, zinc-alloy,
                     cadmium, aluminum, tin and copper.

A Brite Company offers a complete line of products for your metal finishing
and environmental needs. For information on our product lines, specific
