Can stainless steel be plated with copper?

Can stainless steel be plated with copper? Is there a surface copper plating process in the stainless steel processing process?

The surface of stainless steel can be plated with copper, but the process is more complicated than that of ordinary steel. The reason is that the surface of stainless steel is always in a passivated state, while the surface of ordinary steel is basically in an activated state, so it is easy to rust. It is necessary to plate copper on stainless steel. , a special process must be used to remove the passivation film on the surface, and it is always in an activated state before copper plating is started, otherwise the copper plating layer cannot be firmly combined with the stainless steel.

In order to achieve the purpose of activation, the most effective and most commonly used process is to electrify the nickel plating solution containing high chloride ions. Under the action of current and chloride ions, the surface of the stainless steel is activated and firstly plated with a thin layer of nickel, and then With copper plating, the copper layer adheres extremely firmly to the stainless steel.
