Yes, indeed. I have both urea and sulfourea, and happen to be running an experiment since Wednesday on both of them. xUrea+Formic acid (1 drop), in
an ester.
I haven't gotten metal plating from a solution containing either of them; but they are quite conductive.
Urea also works well for increasing solubility of various salts both in molten form, and not.
My experince so far: Urea has a low electrochemical resistance window, and tends to be a little too easily broken down into hydrogen, CO2, and
ammonia. Sulfourea is less reactive. I think it may be more reducing.
But that causes precipitation of sludge in a lot of experiments.
I tried urea + CholineChloride a few months ago at ?Draconic Acids? request; It ended up turning black over-night due to electrolysis and plated
sludge, only. I'm not sure how to tame it ...

Well, it was an idea.
Please remember: "Filtrate" is not a verb.
Write up your lab reports the way your instructor wants them, not the way your ex-instructor wants them.

Idea are welcome. I am an experimentalist. I like to test out ideas.

I came across a 2009 patent about mixtures of nitrates for use in heat transfer. You may be interested to try one of them, if you haven't yet. I have
no clue about the solubility of nickel salts in these eutectic mixtures.
