ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An improved electrotinplating process and electroplating bath therefor is disclosed. The electroplating bath contains tin ions, an alkali metal hydroxide, and a bismuth compound selected from the group consisting of at least one alkali metal bismuth salt of a linear polyhydroxymono- carboxylic acid having at least six carbon atoms, at least one alkali metal bismuthyl compound of glucono-delta-lactone, and mixtures thereof. The alkali metal bismuth compounds of this invention exhibit increased solubility and long-term stability in hot alkaline alkali metal stannate electroplating baths when compared to conventional alkali metal bismuthates. A preferred alkali metal bismuth compound is an alkali metal bismuthyl gluconate. An improved electrotinplating process is therefore provided which produces a plated tin-bismuth alloy which is resistant to the effects of tin pest.
