Definitions

  • a tin bath is suggested for the formation of a tin layer by chemical precipitation, which contains at least one foreign metal.
  • the addition of foreign metals to the tin bath achieves an advantageous suppression of the diffusion processes, and thus a diffusion barrier is built which prevents the liberation of metals from the base material to a large extent.
  • the advantages thus gained are good soldering characteristics at the surface and good durability of the tin layer.
  • a diffusion-stable tin layer is produced which prevents the liberation of materials from the base layer to a large extent. This is an advantage especially in view of the copper liberation from potable water carrying copper tubing. However, an out-diffusion of lead and zinc from basic brass materials is prevented by a diffusion-stable tin layer.
  • a metal of the group silver, bismuth, nickel, titanium, zirconium and indium is suggested as the foreign metal, whereby the use of indium has shown to be especially effective.
  • the foreign metal for the formation of a diffusion barrier within the tin layer, at least one of the above metals is added to the tin bath as a foreign metal.
  • thiourea and/or its derivative is used as the complexing agent.
  • Thiourea as the complexing agent enables the liberation of positively charged copper ions.
  • a copper thiourea complex forms which is soluble in electrolytes at a temperature of >28°C.
  • As a result of the complexing of the copper its potential compared to that of tin is reduced.
  • the then more noble tin precipitates, forming a layer of tin on the copper.
  • the liberated copper ions concentrate in the electrolyte, whereby at a 3 copper concentration above 7 g/1 economical working is no longer possible since at these concentrations tin is no longer precipitated at satisfactory rates.
  • a tin bath which preferably contains the following components:
  • a source of tin preferably a bivalent tin salt, for example tin methanesulfonate, with 1 to 30 g/1 of tin in the tin bath;
  • An acid preferably methanesulphomc acid with 5 to 200 g/1 in the tin bath, whereby the tin bath assumes a pH value of 0 to 3 ;
  • a complexing agent preferably thiourea or a derivative in quantities of 10 to 200 g/1;
  • a wetting agent in quantities of 1 to 10 g/1; 5. At least one foreign metal, preferably a metal in the group Ag, Bi, Ni, Ti, Zr and In in a proportion of
  • a working temperature of the tin bath of 35 to 80°C is suggested.
  • already known measures common to the state of the art can be taken when using the process described. This includes, for example, rinsing, pickling and drying of the work pieces.
  • the process described by the invention makes it possible to produce diffusion-stable tin layers by means of chemical precipitation, whereby the diffusion barrier generated by the addition of foreign metals prevents the liberation of metals from the base materials in an advantageous manner.
  • thiourea as complexing agent it becomes possible to remove the 5 copper ions liberated from the copper from the electrolyte by filtration, and thus to achieve a substantially extended useful life. Furthermore, in this manner a substantial acceleration of the process is achieved.
