4. Read and translate the text. Summarize it in Russian.
Electroplating is a chemical or electrochemical process of surface treatment. A metallic layer is deposited on the base material. Common plating metals include: cadmium, chromium, copper, gold, nickel, silver and their alloys. This information bulletin focuses on chrome plating. Electroplating is used for components and equipment in all fields of technology to:
- protect the material against corrosion
- improve the surface properties
- achieve optimum decorative effects
Electroplating is an electrodeposition process for producing a dense, uniform, and adherent coating, usually of metal or alloys, upon a surface by the act of electric current. The coating produced is usually for decorative and/or protective purposes, or enhancing specific properties of the surface. The surface can be conductors, such as metal, or nonconductors, such as plastics. Electroplating products are widely used for many industries, such as automobile, ship, air space, machinery, electronics, jewelry, defense, and toy industries. The core part of the electroplating process is the electrolytic cell (electroplating unit). In the electrolytic cell (electroplating unit) a current is passed through a bath containing electrolyte, the anode, and the cathode. In industrial production, pretreatment and posttreatment steps are usually needed as well.

5. Read the text again. Decide whether the following
statements are true or false.
1. A metallic layer is deposited on the raw material.
2. Electroplating is a galvanic process of surface treatment.
3. The surface can be semi-conductors, such as metal and plastics.
4. The initial part of the electroplating is the electrolytic cell.
6. Read the text. What is its main idea?
Гальваностегия – электролитическое осаждение тонкого слоя металла на поверхности какого-либо металлического предмета для
63
защиты его от коррозии, повышения износоустойчивости, предохранения от цементации, в декоративных целях и т. д.
Получаемые покрытия – осадки – должны быть плотными, а по структуре – мелкозернистыми. Чтобы достигнуть мелкозернистого строения осадков, необходимо выбрать соответствующие состав электролита, температурный режим и плотность тока. Выбор способа покрытия зависит от назначения и условий работы изделия. На сегодняшний день изделия из металла, а также барельефы на стенах, широко используются как в быту, так и в производстве, и в других сферах промышленности. Надежность, прочность, многофункци­ональность, привлекательный внешний вид - вот что отличает металл от других материалов. Литьевые пресс–формы значительно облегчают производство товаров крупными партиями, художественные кованые изделия позволяют превратить мебель и элементы интерьера в предметы роскоши, ювелирные изделия были и остаются самым лучшим украшением, а барельефы, расположенные на стенах, существенно преображают интерьер.

7. Work in pairs. Translate the following text from English into Russian.
The workpiece to be plated is the cathode (negative terminal). The anode, however, can be one of the two types: sacrificial anode (dissolvable anode) and permanent anode (inert anode). The sacrificial anodes are made of the metal that is to be deposited. The permanent anodes can only complete the electrical circuit, but cannot provide a source of fresh metal to replace what has been removed from the solution by deposition at the cathode. Platinum and carbon are usually used as inert anodes. Electrolyte is the electrical conductor in which current is carried by ions rather than by free electrons (as in a metal). Electrolyte completes an electric circuit between two electrodes. Upon application of electric current, the positive ions in the electrolyte will move toward the cathode and the negatively charged ions toward the anode. This migration of ions through the electrolyte constitutes the electric current in that part of the circuit. The migration of electrons into the anode through the wiring and an electric generator and then back to the cathode constitutes the current in the external circuit. The metallic ions of the salt in the electrolyte carry a positive charge
64
and are thus attracted to the cathode. When they reach the negatively charged workpiece, it provides electrons to reduce those positively charged ions to metallic form, and then the metal atoms will be deposited onto the surface of the negatively charged workpiece.
8. Work in pairs. Interpret the following passage sentence by
sentence.
It is commonly accepted and often quoted by electroplaters that one can make a poor coating perform with excellent pretreatment, but one cannot make an excellent coating perform with poor pretreatment. Surface pretreatment by chemical and/or mechanical means is important not only in the case of preparations for electroplating but is also required in preparation for painting. In either of these, methods are designed to ensure good adhesion of the coating or paint to the surface. Most (metal) surface treatment and plating operations have three basic steps:
- surface cleaning or preparation. Usually this includes employing
of solvents, alkaline cleaners, acid cleaners, abrasive materials and/or water.
- surface modification. That includes change in surface attributes,
such as application of (metal) layer(s) and/or hardening.
- rinsing or other work-piece finishing operations to produce/obtain
the final product.

exact science.
2. Some of the technological areas in which means and methods of electroplating constitute an essential component are all aspects of electronics: macro and micro, optics, opto-electronics, and sensors of most types.
3. The anode and cathode in the electroplating cell are both connected to an external supply of direct current — a battery or, more commonly, a rectifier.
4. The anode is connected to the positive terminal of the supply, and the cathode (article to be plated) is connected to the negative terminal.
5. When the external power supply is switched on, the metal at the anode is oxidized from the zero valence state to form cations with a positive charge.
6. The plating is most commonly a single metallic element, not an alloy.
7. If it is desirable to plate one type of deposit onto a metal to improve corrosion resistance but this metal has inherently poor adhesion to the substrate, a strike can be first deposited that is compatible with both.
8. The brush, typically a stainless steel body wrapped with a cloth material that both holds the plating solution and prevents direct contact with the item being plated, is connected to the positive side of a low voltage direct-current power source, and the item to be plated connected to the negative.

9. Brush electroplating has several advantages over tank plating, including portability, ability to plate items that for some reason cannot be tank plated, low or no masking requirements, and comparatively low plating solution volume requirements.

4. Read and translate the text. Summarize it in Russian.
Zinc has a number of characteristics that make it a well-suited corrosion protective coating for iron and steel products in most environments. The excellent field performance of zinc coatings results from its ability to form dense, adherent corrosion product film sand a rate of corrosion considerably below that of ferrous materials (some 10 to 100 times slower depending upon the environment). While a fresh zinc surface is quite reactive when exposed to the atmosphere, a thin film of corrosion products develops rapidly, greatly reducing the rate of further corrosion. In addition to creating a barrier between steel and the environment, zinc also has the ability to cathodically protect the base metal. Zinc, which is anodic to iron and steel, will preferentially corrode and protect the iron or steel against rusting when the coating is damaged. Many different types of zinc coatings are commercially available, and each has unique characteristics. These characteristics not only affect applicability but also the relative economics and expected service life. The method of processing, adhesion to the base metal, protection afforded at corners, edges, and threads, hardness, coating density, and thickness can vary greatly among the different coatings. This practical aid discusses each of the major types of zinc coatings, applied by batch hot-dip galvanizing, continuous sheet galvanizing, electrogalvanizing, zinc plating, mechanical plating, zinc spraying, and zinc painting, to help specialists assess and select zinc coatings for corrosion protection.

Galvanizers Association // www.galvanizeit.org)
