Electroless gold plating
TL;DR: Improved electroless or autocatalytic gold plating baths as discussed by the authors were proposed to extract trivalent gold components from an amino borane, an alkali metal borohydride, or an acid acid as reducing agent, and an alkaline agent such as an alkyl metal hydroxide; and an acid buffering agent.
Patent
Process for the immersion deposition of gold
TL;DR: An electroless plating process for depositing gold on substrates such as metal and metallized substrates, which involves immersing the substrates in an electroless bath composed of a trivalent gold complex, an organic carboxylic acid, and/or a mineral acid sufficient in amount so that the pH of the bath will range from about 0.1 to 6.0.
Patent
Gold sulphite electroplating solutions and methods
Kenneth D. Baker,Hans Scheider +1 more
TL;DR: An electroplating bath solution comprising an alkali metal or ammonium gold sulphite, a water soluble salt of thallium metal to effect brightening and grain refining, and a non-hydroxy, non-amino carboxylic acid such as formic acid and oxalic acid to ensure that the bright gold metal deposit has a hardness lower than about 90 Knoop.

High speed bright silver electroplating bath and process
Yvonne Rymwid,Kenneth D. Baker +1 more
TL;DR: An electrolytic bath for the production of mirror bright silver deposits comprising an alkali metal silver cyanide as the source of silver, boric acid, citric acid, alkali or ammonium metal salts of such acids, as well as mixtures thereof, was described in this paper.
