Reuse of Expired Cefort Drug in Nickel Electrodeposition From Watts Bath

Abstract

This paper demonstrates the possibility to use ceftriaxone (CEFTR) active compound from expired Cefort as additive in nickel electrodeposition from Watts baths. Electrochemical behaviour and the influence of CEFTR on nickel electroplating were studied by electrochemical methods. Experimental data recommends CEFTR as additive in nickel electroplating from Watts baths.
