Title: Innovations by William Bassett in Electroplating Technology
Introduction
William Bassett is an accomplished inventor based in Patuxent River, MD (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of electroplating, holding 2 patents that showcase his innovative methods. His work focuses on enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of electroplating processes.
Latest Patents
William Bassett's latest patents revolve around the preparation of electrodes for electroplating. One of his notable inventions involves a method of immersing an electrode in an electroplating solution while under vacuum. This technique aims to substantially eliminate air and other gases from microscopic holes, cavities, or indentations in the electrode. Additionally, he has developed a method that applies a vacuum to the electrode while it is immersed in the electroplating solution, further ensuring the removal of air and gas. His approach allows the electroplating liquid to be applied to only one side of the electrode, known as the 'wet side.' This method ensures that sufficient time is allowed for the immersion liquid to fill the microscopic features of the electrode. An enhancement of this process includes forcing liquid through the microscopic holes from the wet side. Bassett also explores the use of highly penetrating solvents or carbon dioxide as immersion liquids, adjusting temperature and pressure conditions to optimize the process.
