Scope
This Standard specifies requirements for electrodeposited coatings including composition (single-layer or multi-layer) for gold and its alloys for electrical, electronic and other engineering applications, as well as for decorative purposes, on metallic and non-metallic materials.
In the case of double-layer and multi-layer coatings, the thickness requirements apply to the total gold or gold alloy coating, but the requirements for gold content apply to each layer.
Appendix A sets out information to be supplied by the purchaser to the electroplater.
NOTES:
1 Appendix B shows a means of demonstrating compliance to this Standard.
2 Appendix C lists a number of applications for electrodeposited gold coatings.
3 Appendix F discusses electrolytes and associated factors which affect electrodeposited gold and gold alloy coatings.
