Two methods for electroplating on beryllium are discussed; one method involves electrochemical and chemical activation of the beryllium for direct plating with other metals, and the other involves an intermediate replacement zinc film on the beryllium surface. Chemical polishing of beryllium is described. Alloying of the beryllium with the deposited metals and its effect on the as‐plated adhesion are also discussed.
