Description
Technical Field
the invention relates to the field of electroplating, in particular to a pearl nickel electroplating process.
background
pearl nickel is also known as sardine nickel, satin nickel, fog nickel, water fog nickel, sand fog nickel, satin nickel and the like. The plating layer is in a milky white, matt, silk-like, dazzling-free, bright and dazzling mirror-like, soft and comfortable, and semi-hazy extinction state. The pearl nickel can be electroplated with various coatings, such as chromium, gold, imitation gold, silver, gun color and the like, to form sand chromium, sand gold, sand yellow, sand silver and sand gray, so that the decorative effect is more beautiful.
The first method to obtain pearl nickel is a composite plating technique, i.e. adding a dispersed phase (solid particles) formed by a metal compound into a nickel plating solution, suspending the dispersed phase in the plating solution, and co-depositing with nickel ions to form an uneven plating layer, i.e. the traditional pearl nickel. One new theory is that one or two nonionic surfactants are added into a sulfate nickel plating solution, and the surfactant consists of three groups, namely a water increasing base carbon chain or base ring (R bond for short), hydrophilic ether bond (one O I) and polyoxyethylene bond (CH2CH2O), and has the common characteristics that: these substances have an abnormal insolubilizing property, their solubility is rather reduced with the increase of temperature, when the temperature of the solution is increased, the ether bond is unhooked and separated out to make the solution turbid, and the critical temperature value when the solution becomes turbid is called cloud point. Small liquid beads are formed after precipitation, when the diameters of the small liquid beads are 5-30 mm, the small liquid beads are in a power-on state, nickel ions are discharged and deposited, and no nickel is deposited on the adsorbed small liquid beads; after the liquid beads are desorbed, tiny pits can be formed on the original adsorption points, and the steps are repeated to form the uneven pearl nickel layer.
at present, most of nickel plating of automobile parts adopts a main sand agent containing a nonionic surfactant to carry out pearl nickel electroplating, and the hardness and the pearl effect of a surface coating are places which are greatly improved by a person skilled in the art.
