Abstract

A method for electroplating a nickel-antimony alloy comprising from 1-70 weight percent antimony and the balance nickel comprises electroplating the alloy from a solution containing a soluble nickel salt and a soluble mixed antimony alkali metal salt of a polybasic organic acid at a pH in the range of about from 1 to 6. The substrate to be plated is made the cathode and an inert anode is employed.
