The authors test dimethylaminoborane solutions and coatings obtained from them. The reducing agent was DMAB made in a pilot plant. The study shows that solutions for chemical nickel plating, containing DMAB as the reducing agent, are very stable at pH from 5 to 9 and temperatures up to 70 deg. The degree of utilization of the reducing agent rises with increase of the solution pH. The deposited coatings have high hardness, adhesion, and soluerability which improve after heat treatment. The solutions used in this study can be recommended for practical use.
