OCAS Hard Chrome Plating Technology
OCAS is developing an alternative chrome plating process based on proprietary ionic liquid technology
OCAS matures the technology to an industrial deployable level, creates OCAS IP, and generates revenues by licensing the technology to third parties.
By setting up a Partnership Program, OCAS plans an early industry involvement & support of our R&D endeavours

Upscaling observations
• Conductivity – viscosity Low conductivity (20 mS/cm): distance anode-cathode of
higher importance than in aqueous systems High viscosity (ν = 85 mm²/s): transport mechanism
different than aqueous systems
• Modelling Fluid-dynamics in pilot line Almost no data available on
• Complexation mechanism • (Side)reactions in IL/DES

Cl2 gas measurements
• Inert DSA anodes: 3000 – 4000 ppm measured during deposition With flow at OCAS: still under emission limit
• Using Chromium nuggets: 99.8% pure Cr Basket = PP mesh No Cl2 gas could be measured But …

Conclusions
DSA anode Effect Action
Soluble anode Effect Action
Dimensional changes over lifetime
No changes
-
Influence on critical parameter (anode-cathode distance)
Constant finetuning of
distance anode-cathode needed
Side reactions Cl2 formation Gas scrubber could be
needed on industrial site
No Cl2
