Abstract
The costly effluent disposal of alkaline cyanide-based electrolytes coupled with more stringent pollution laws has led to the appraisal of possible alkaline alternatives for the electrodeposition of zinc. Of these, zincate-based formulations appear to be promising. This review examines their present day use, solution electrochemistry, mechanism of deposition and the properties of zinc coatings formed from them. An appraisal of their effectiveness when compared to normal cyanide solutions is also made.Keywords
