Abstract

An anodic roller electroplating process utilizes novel anodic roller apparatus and provides flexible operation parameters. The novel anodic roller apparatus comprises a perforate valve metal cylinder such as in mesh form. The cylinder has an electrocatalytic coating and an electrolyte-containing, porous wrap. Processing parameters can provide desirable electroplate, such as of metal coils, at enhanced plating speeds as well as providing carefull control over plate composition and deposition thickness.
