- Electroplating is used on car parts with a thin layer of chromium for a smooth texture and appearance. They are also done on various other appliances customized according to the buyer’s request.
- As metals are prone to natural effects such as corrosion, a thin layer of non-corrosive metals covering the corrosive one can help metals and appliances last longer than usual. The non-corrosive metals such copper, chromium and nickel are basically used these days to spread over corrosive metals like steel and iron.
- Electroplating can be used in other areas where we can reduce friction by introducing a certain kind of metal over another.
- Electroplating also helps to protect from radiation, abrasion and many other natural phenomena just by imparting the desired characteristics to a surface of the metals which lacks those properties.
