The process of depositing a thin coating of one metal on top of a different metal is known as electroplating. This book focuses on new applications of electroplating, keeping in mind the environmental aspect and experimental design. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the new functions of electroplating. It also presents a resolution for the environmental problems caused by the electroplating process and discusses an experimental design for the optimization of electro deposition procedures. The book includes contributions by prominent experts from academics as well as electroplating industries.
