- the stabilizer may be Na 2 S, which ensures the stability of the metal ions.
- the surfactant may be sodium tartrate, which lowers the surface tension of the solution, so that hydrogen generated by the reaction is easily detached from the surface of the formed metal layer to reduce hydrogen embrittlement.
