What it is and what it does. QLQ CL-5 is an alkaline copper brightener for alkaline copper baths, the grade used where maximum brightness is required on visible die-cast surfaces.
- Dark blue to violet clear liquid, dosed in small amounts from a dilute stock solution.
- The higher-grade brightener in the CL family, chosen when the visual quality of the copper layer matters most.
- Balanced against the bath chemistry in the same way as the other CL grades.

Buyer Questions We Answer Every Week
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Why is the brightness lower in the barrel than on the rack? | Agitation and current density distribution differ; ask QLQ for the barrel-specific dose and cycle. |
| Does the brightener affect the ductility? | Yes, every brightener does; check the bend test after adjusting the dose. |
