Abstract
A method for the electrolytic tinning of steel strip in an electrolytic bath wherein the steel strip is the cathode and insoluble anodes are used, the electrodes are immersed in an electrolyte solution containing tin ions and wherein the concentration of the tin ions in the bath is controlled by passing the solution exterior of the bath in contact with tin in particulate form, while simultaneously maintaining a high content of dissolved oxygen in the solution. This latter treatment replenishes the tin concentration of the solution and the thus replenished electrolytic solution can be returned to the bath in a manner so as to consistently maintain the tin ion concentration at the desired level.
