Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 65 words
A method for plating a powder with a metal by substitution, which comprises adding a crystalline powder of a metal chloride hydrate, wherein the metal of said metal chloride hydrate is a metal having a negative standard electrode potential, after and/or during mixing a powder to be plated and a reducing metal powder, and after the initiation of the reaction, adding water and/or hydrochloric acid.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 65 words
A method for plating a powder with a metal by substitution, which comprises adding a crystalline powder of a metal chloride hydrate, wherein the metal of said metal chloride hydrate is a metal having a negative standard electrode potential, after and/or during mixing a powder to be plated and a reducing metal powder, and after the initiation of the reaction, adding water and/or hydrochloric acid.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method of claim 1, wherein said metal is nickel and/or cobalt.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 16 words
The method of claim 1, wherein said reducing metal is Ca, Mg, Al, Fe or Zn.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 13 words
The method of claim 3, wherein said reducing metal is Mg or Al.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 28 words
The method of claim 1, wherein the amount of water and/or hydrochloric acid is such that the slurry concentration after the substitution reaction is 500 to 700 g/l.
Claim 7
Independent Claim 20 words
