Abstract

Abstract In accordance with certain of its aspects this invention relates to a process of producing bright zinc electrodeposits which comprises passing current from an anode to a metal cathode through an aqueous bath composition containing at least one zinc compound providing zinc ions for electroplating zinc, a bathsoluble polyether, and at least one non-aromatic Alpha , Beta unsaturated carbonyl compound for a time period sufficient to deposit a bright zinc electrodeposit upon said cathode.
