Abstract (en)

[origin: US4619742A] A process for producing chromium-plated, steel-based printing plate carriers comprises (A) simultaneously roughening and partially chromium-plating a substrate using alternating current in an electrolyte containing chromium, chloride, sulfate and, if appropriate, strontium ions and then, in the same electrolyte, (B) employing direct current to effect final chromium-plating. The printing plate supports produced in this manner have a uniform surface topography and peak-to-valley height values that are favorable for coating.
