METHOD OF ELECTROPLATING OF REMOVABLE DENTURES Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC A61K6/04 A61C13/02 C25D3/48 C25D3/50 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: method for electroplating of removable dentures involves gold pre-electroplating at cathode current density 0.3-0.5 A/dm² for 8-10 min from aqueous electrolyte with pH 1.0-1.5 containing potassium dicyanoaurate and citric acid, and further palladium finish electroplating at cathode current density 0.5-0.7 A/dm² for 1-1.5 h to a palladium thickness layer of 8-10 mcm from aqueous electrolyte containing palladium chloride, ammonium chloride, sodium nitrate, ammonium sulphamate and ammonium hydroxide in certain proportions.

EFFECT: method provides preparing pore-free, stress-free, glossy and plastic coating enabling equal potentials between the dentures made of base alloys or palladium-containing alloys if used simultaneously, eliminating negative effects, unpleasant taste and wear of the dentures related to simultaneous use of the dentures with different compositions.
