Technology Without Limits (TWL)
and Dr. Claudio Telatin are proud to announce a breakthrough
Palladium
Plating Solution that solves the long standing issue of a grey
color which has been unacceptable in the world's jewelry marketplace. This new formulation
solves that issue and plates a very white color that compares
very favorably to Rhodium at a much lower price.
Why
Plate with Palladium instead of Rhodium?
Cost
- Rhodium is close to $10,000 / ounce. Palladium is around
$450 / ounce.
Plating
Thickness - TWL Palladium can be plated at a high thickness,
up to 2 microns. Rhodium can only be plated up to .4 microns
thickness. The color of rhodium greatly deteriorates as the
thickness of the plating is increased.
Color
- TWL palladium uses other alloys in the palladium formula which
improves the color of the deposit. The final plating deposit result is
95% palladium and only about 5% alloy. The color is very close to
the color of Rhodium.
Life of the final
plated product - Rhodium plates very
inefficiently in regards to grain structure therefore leaving very small
porosity holes which latter result in color change and oxidation bleed
through. This is not the case with Palladium which has a much higher
efficiency and can produce a highly resistant deposit even at low
thickness resulting in a longer esthetic life of the final finish of the
jewelry item.
Works Great on
Silver Jewelry - Palladium give you a
tarnish free finish on silver jewelry without a nickel pre-plate.
Many manufacturers use Nickel before Rhodium when plating on silver.
When using Rhodium alone on silver, you can have oxidation bleed
through.
Palladium
can also be used as a pre-plate for Rhodium - This can enable
the manufacturer to provide a longer lasting high quality product with a
substantially lower cost by applying a protective layer of palladium
followed by a low decorative finish of rhodium.
This formula is available for
Large baths or in Ready To Use Quart and Pint bottles.
