Abstract
An electrolyte for use in electrolytic platinum plating that results in reduced Cl, S, or P contaminant production. The bath comprises 0.01 to 320 g/lit of platinum in the form of the platinum salt dinitrodiammine platinum, Pt(NH ) (NO ) or variants thereof and 0.1 to 240 g/lit of alkali metal carbonate M CO or bicarbonate MHCO where M is selected from a group comprising lithium (Li), sodium (Na), potassium (K), rubidium (Rb) and cesium (Cs). A method of improving oxidation resistance of a platinum modified aluminide diffusion coating on a substrate, comprises electroplating the substrate using this electrolyte and then aluminizing the electroplated substrate at an elevated temperature to grow a platinum modified aluminide diffusion coating.
