Hi All,
i have question about the thickness of a lead cathode for a sulfuric stripping cell (reverse electroplating gold)
in my attempt to build a proper cell i have wondered about the "Thickness of the Lead Cathode" :!:
does thickness matter :?: (no april fools "size matters" jokes please)
i have seen homemade ones from fishing weights to cut lead sheet. i can only guess what may be right.
its not a 2000 litre tank, just a 11.5 litre (12 quarts) plastic bin that will have about 8 litres of sulfuric acid. i want a little extra depth as not to have to clean it as often.
right now i am making a plaster mold to pour my molten lead into & would like it to be a correct thickness.
any thoughts would be helpful.
Thank You
Dave C.
