Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3312309A1] This invention provides an electroplated product with a precious metal finishing layer that has an improved corrosion and abrasion resistance. The electroplated product comprises two electroplated copper alloy layers having a different copper concentration (e.g. white bronze and yellow bronze). The electroplated product is especially suitable for use in jewelry, fashion, leather, watch, eyewear, trinkets and/or lock industry. Another advantage of the electroplated product is that the use of allergenic nickel or expensive palladium intermediate layers against copper migration can be dispensed with. This means that the electroplated product can be non-allergenic (nickel-free) and be provided in a more economical and environment-friendly manner. A method for the production of the inventive electroplated product is presented. Furthermore, the use of the inventive electroplated product in the jewelry, fashion, leather, watch, eyewear, trinkets and/or lock industry is suggested.
