Cleaned mild steel wire was processed through the bath before and after additions of N, N, N, tribenzylamine were made to the bath. The wire was processed in the bath at 100F. for two minutes. After treatment in the copper solution the wire was rinsed then dried with forced air. The N, N, N, tribenzylamine was added so that the total concentration varied from 10 mg per liter to 2000 mg per liter. Very light colored coatings with excellent adhesion were obtained at N, N, N, tribenzylamine concentrations between and 500 mg per liter. Above and below theseconcentrations the coatings were darker in color.
