Electroplating and Sealing of Hardware Accessories for Handbags, Cases and Bags
The quality of electroplated products is directly related to the embryo of hardware products. There are usually two ways to electroplate hardware accessories for our handbags, bags, and bags:
The first is hanging plating. After chemical and physical treatment and polishing, the products are taken to the electroplating factory and cleaned with Potassium permanganate, and then hung up one by one for electroplating, so the surface of the products is smooth and bright.
The second method is called barrel plating. The barrel plated product embryo is directly plated after the product surface is shaken bright and the burrs are cleaned by the vibration machine. The electroplating procedure is completely different from the hanging plating method. It is to put multiple products into a large cylinder and roll up the power. The rolling up power quality must be good. The Copper(II) sulfate bottom must be thick, so that the surface brightness of the hardware accessories in the handbags, suitcases and bags can reach the next step of coloring. However, the surface effect has not been achieved to achieve the effect of hanging plating, which is due to the different polishing and electroplating processes of the embryo, resulting in product grade effects.
In addition to the important process of electroplating, the hardware accessories of handbags and bags also need to maintain long-term use without fading, which is called sealing oil. Another method is called "Yijia", which adds a layer of protective oil to the surface of the electroplated product.
How do we distinguish between sealing oil and not? One way is to touch the surface with your hands and not leave fingerprints due to sweat on your hands. Leaving fingerprints is definitely without sealing oil. Another way is to look at the thickness of the surface of the hardware accessories of handbags, bags, and bags. Products that have been sealed with oil will have a thicker surface. With an additional layer of protective film on the surface, the product will not scratch, while products that have not been sealed with oil will even expose the electroplating layer if gently scraped off. If you want high-quality accessories, the hardware accessories of handbags and bags must be rust proof and acid proof.
