Cyclic voltammetry stripping (CVS) is widely recognized as a potent tool for monitoring concentrations of organic additives in plating baths.
Concentrations of additives in the plating bath have a considerable impact on the deposit’s ductility, tensile strength, and solderability. Regular and ongoing CVS analysis of organic additives can help ensure continuous, problem-free operation.
Information on the plating bath provided by CVS is more objective than that of a Hull Cell. While a Hull Cell provides a qualitative indication of the condition of the bath, CVS allows the plater to precisely replenish additives, thus ensuring the bath continues to operate properly.
