AMS 2418 new Revision H on Copper Plating was just released on 2/18/2011. This Aerospace Material Specification covers the requirements for electrodeposition of copper on metals and the properties of the deposit.
This process has been used typically to provide an anti-seize surface, to prevent carburizing of surfaces on which carburizing is neither required nor permitted, to prevent decarburization, to enhance solderability, or to provide a source of copper for furnace brazing, but usage is not limited to such applications.
The standard is one of the primary plating spec standards in use all over the world.
