3. Solution Make-up
Add water at the 2/3 amount of bath volume, then add above amount of KCl and ZnCl2 and stir. Dissolve H3BO3 with 80℃ hot water and add slowly into the bath, then add 1-2g/L zinc powder, stir 20-30 minutes, Filter into the bath after solution becomes clarified, add water according to calculated volume. Dissolve above calculated Zn-618 additive by one time of volume water and add into the bath, stir uniform, then start to do trial plating.
