This category covers processes for depositing various metals, such as copper plating (acid copper, cyanide copper), nickel plating (bright nickel, semi-bright nickel, sulfamate nickel), chrome plating (decorative chrome, hard chrome), zinc and zinc alloy plating (zinc nickel, zinc iron, acid zinc, alkaline zinc), and precious metal plating (gold, silver, palladium, rhodium).

2. Electroless Plating Solutions

These are chemical processes that deposit metal without the use of external electric current. Key products include electroless nickel (mid-phosphorus, high-phosphorus, low-phosphorus, boron-EN) and electroless copper solutions.

3. Surface Treatment Chemicals

This broad category encompasses chemicals used for preparing and enhancing surfaces. It includes industrial cleaners (alkaline, acidic, solvent-based), activators and desmutters, etchants, phosphates, passivates and sealers (for zinc, zinc alloys, aluminum), and antitarnish treatments.

4. Printed Circuit Board (PCB) Manufacturing Chemicals

Enthone provides critical chemicals for the fabrication of PCBs. This includes through-hole metallization processes, desmear solutions, final finishes (such as Electroless Nickel Immersion Gold (ENIG), Electroless Nickel Electroless Palladium Immersion Gold (ENEPIG), Immersion Tin, and Organic Solderability Preservatives (OSP)), imaging materials, and etching solutions.

5. Specialty Coatings

These products offer enhanced performance characteristics to treated surfaces, including advanced corrosion protection coatings and various decorative and functional finishes for diverse substrates.
