Performance test
The trivalent chromium plating layers obtained in examples 1 to 15 and comparative examples 1 to 4 were used as samples for the tests.
Test one, chromium layer hardness test: the test equipment uses HX-1000 microhardness tester produced by Shanghai second optical instrument factory, and the test part of the sample can be the surface or the section of the coating. When the surface of the coating is tested, the center of the main surface is preferably used, and the interference of the surface defects of the coating on the test is avoided. In the same test part of the test sample, the distance between the indentations should be more than 2.5 times of the diagonal length of the indentations. For the same sample, it should be measured three times or more under the same conditions, and the arithmetic mean value is taken as the measurement result of the hardness of the plating layer.
Test II, chromium layer thickness test: the test equipment uses an OU 3500F type coating thickness gauge of the times company to test at the center of the main surface of the coating, so as to avoid testing at the surface defect of the coating. For the same sample, the measurement should be performed three or more times under the same conditions, and the arithmetic mean value is taken as the measurement result of the thickness of the plating layer.
And thirdly, testing the porosity of the chromium layer: the porosity was determined according to GB/T17721-1999 porosity test iron reagent test for Metal coverings.
Test four, detecting the color of the chromium layer: and the plated part is placed in a place with sufficient light by adopting a visual inspection mode, and the plated part is observed in all directions.
TABLE 2 results of the trivalent chromium plating test of examples 1 to 15 and comparative examples 1 to 4
Figure BDA0002741942460000111
Figure BDA0002741942460000121
As can be seen from Table 2, the chromium (III) plating layers prepared from the chromium (III) plating solutions of examples 1 to 15 of the present application all exhibited a slightly dark stainless steel color.
In comparative examples 1 to 6, the chromium trivalent chromium plating layer of example 6 is preferred in terms of hardness and thickness when the composition in the chromium trivalent chromium plating bath is changed.
Comparing examples 6 and 7, the porosity of example 7 is significantly less than example 6, indicating that the addition of magnetite reduces the porosity of the trivalent chromium coating.
Compared with the examples 6-10, the hardness and the thickness of the trivalent chromium plating layer can be improved and the porosity of the trivalent chromium plating layer can be reduced by simultaneously adding a small amount of ferroferric oxide, diphenylcarbodihydrazide and hydrofluoric acid.
In comparative examples 6, 11 and 12, the use of potassium chloride as a conductive salt is preferred in terms of hardness and thickness of the trivalent chromium plating layer when the amount of the components is constant.
In comparative examples 6, 13 and 14, the complexing agent used malic acid was preferred in terms of hardness and thickness of the trivalent chromium plating layer at constant amounts of the components.
Example 6, in comparison with comparative examples 1-4, shows that the main reason why the trivalent chromium plating layer produces a slight dark color imitating the color of stainless steel is due to a small amount of iron covering the surface of the trivalent chromium plating layer, and secondly, sodium alkylsulfonate also affects the brightness of the dark color.
The above embodiments are preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited by the above embodiments, so: all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape and principle of the present application shall be covered by the protection scope of the present application.
