Description

Elektrolyt und Verfahren zur Abscheidunfl einer matten Metallschicht Electrolyte and method for separating a matt metal layer
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Elektrolyten sowie ein Verfahren zur Abscheidung einer matten Metallschicht auf einem Substrat aus einem einen Emulsions- und/oder Dispersionsbildner oder ein Netzmittel aufweisenden Elektrolyten.The present invention relates to an electrolyte and to a method for depositing a matt metal layer on a substrate from an electrolyte comprising an emulsion and / or dispersion former or a wetting agent.
Allgemein geht das Bestreben bei der Herstellung metallischer Schichten auf Substraten dahin, möglichst glatte und hochglänzende Überzüge zu erhalten. Anwendungsspezifisch ist es jedoch in vielen Fällen wünschenswert, einen Metallüberzug zu erhalten, der nicht glänzend sondern matt ist. Dies kann einerseits im optischen Erscheinungsbild dieses Überzugs, andererseits auch in den technischen Eigenschaften, sprich der Blendfreiheit, dieser Überzüge begründet liegen. Anwendungsfelder für matt abgeschiedene Metallschichten auf Substraten sind beispielsweise die Schmuckindustrie, die Armaturenindustrie, die Automobilindustrie, aber auch die optische- oder feinmechanische Industrie, bei der insbesondere die Blendfreiheit dieser Überzüge zu tragen kommt. Aus dem Stand der Technik sind matt abgeschiedene Nickel oder Nickellegierungsschichten sowie Cobaltschichten bekannt. Während die Abscheidung solcher potentiell Allergie auslösenden Metalle in vielen Bereichen unkritisch ist, ist eine Vermeidung dieser Metalle im Bereich der Schmuckindustrie oder auch im Bereich der Herstellung von Küchengeräten und -Utensilien erstrebenswert. Im Bereich der optischen- oder feinmechanischen Industrie ist die Abscheidung matter Metallschichten unterschiedlichster Metalle aufgrund der unterschiedlichen Eigenschaften der jeweiligen Metalle wünschenswert. Darüber hinaus ist es wünschenswert den Mattheitsgrad der abgeschiedenen Metallschichten über einen weiten Bereich einstellen zu können.In general, the goal in the production of metallic layers on substrates is to obtain as smooth and high-gloss coatings as possible. However, in many applications, it is desirable to obtain a metal coating that is not glossy but dull. This can be due on the one hand in the visual appearance of this coating, on the other hand, in the technical properties, ie the glare-free, these coatings. Fields of application for matt-deposited metal layers on substrates are, for example, the jewelery industry, the valve industry, the automotive industry, but also the optical or precision mechanical industry, in which the glare-free nature of these coatings in particular has to be borne. Matt-deposited nickel or nickel alloy layers and cobalt layers are known from the prior art. While the deposition of such potentially allergy-inducing metals in many areas is not critical, avoiding these metals in the jewelry industry or in the field of manufacturing kitchen appliances and utensils is desirable. In the field of optical or fine mechanical industry, the deposition of matt metal layers of different metals is desirable because of the different properties of the respective metals. It is beyond that it is desirable to be able to adjust the degree of matting of the deposited metal layers over a wide range.
Die A u f g a b e der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, einen Elektrolyten sowie ein Verfahren zur Abscheidung matter Metallschichten auf Substraten zur Verfügung zu stellen, mit dessen Hilfe eine Vielzahl von Metallen in unterschiedlichen Mattierungsgraden auf unterschiedlichsten Substraten abgeschieden werden können.The object of the present invention is to provide an electrolyte and a method for depositing matte metal layers on substrates, with the aid of which a multiplicity of metals in different degrees of matting can be deposited on a wide variety of substrates.
G e l ö s t wird diese Aufgabe durch einen Elektrolyten zur Abscheidung einer matten Metallschicht auf einem Substrat aus einem einen Emulsions- und/oder Dispersionsbildner oder ein Netzmittel aufweisenden Elektrolyten, welcher dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, daß der Elektrolyt als abzuscheidendes Metall ein Metall der Gruppe bestehend aus AI, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Mo, Ru, Rh, Pd, Ag, Cd, In, Sn, Sb, Te, W, Re, Pt, Au, Tl, Pb, Bi oder eine Legierung dieser Metalle aufweist, der Emulsions- und/oder Dispersionsbildner ein substituiertes oder unsubstituiertes Polyalkylenoxid oder dessen Derivat ist, das Netzmittel fluorierte oder perfluorierte hydrophobe Ketten aufweist oder eine Polyalkylenoxid substituierte quartäre Ammoniumverbindung ist, und Elektrolyt, Emulsions- und/oder Dispersionsbildner oder Netzmittel eine Microemulsion und/oder -dispersion bilden.This object is achieved by an electrolyte for depositing a matt metal layer on a substrate from an electrolyte comprising an emulsion and / or dispersion former or a wetting agent, which is characterized in that the electrolyte as the metal to be deposited is a metal of the group consisting of Al, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Se, Mo, Ru, Rh, Pd, Ag, Cd, In, Sn, Sb, Te, W, Re, Pt, Au, Tl, Pb, Bi or an alloy of these metals, the emulsion and / or dispersion former is a substituted or unsubstituted polyalkylene oxide or its derivative, the surfactant has fluorinated or perfluorinated hydrophobic chains or is a polyalkylene oxide substituted quaternary ammonium compound, and electrolyte, Emulsion and / or dispersion former or wetting agent form a microemulsion and / or dispersion.
Hinsichtlich des Verfahrens wird die Aufgabe durch ein Verfahren zur elektrolytischen Abscheidung einer matten Metallschicht auf einem Substrat gelöst, wobei das Substrat in einem Galvanisierungsbad, aufweisend einen erfindungsgemäßen Elektrolyten und eine Gegenelektrode, mit einer Spannungsquelle verbunden wird und eine Spannung zwischen Substrat und Gegenelektrode angelegt wird, die geeignet ist eine Metallschicht auf dem Substrat abzuscheiden.With regard to the method, the object is achieved by a method for the electrolytic deposition of a matt metal layer on a substrate, wherein the substrate is connected to a voltage source in a plating bath comprising an electrolyte according to the invention and a counterelectrode and a voltage is applied between substrate and counterelectrode, which is suitable for depositing a metal layer on the substrate.
Es wurde herausgefunden, daß die Bildung von Microemulsionen in Elektrolyten geeignet ist, unterschiedlichste Metalle aus den entsprechenden Elektrolyten matt abzuscheiden. Des weiteren wurde herausgefunden, daß zur Bildung dieser Microemulsionen in Elektrolyten unterschiedlichster abzuscheidender Metalle sowohl Polyalkylenglykole oder deren Derivate, Netzmittel mit fluorierten oder perfluorierten hydrophoben Ketten, als auch mit Polyalkylenoxidketten substituierte quartäre Ammoniumverbindungen geeignet sind. Diese Verbindungen weisen ein breites Einsatzspektrum zur Erzeugung von Emulsionen in Elektrolyten unterschiedlichster Metalle auf und können einzeln eingesetzt werden.It has been found that the formation of microemulsions in electrolytes is suitable for matt deposition of a wide variety of metals from the corresponding electrolytes. It has also been found that to form these microemulsions in electrolytes of various metals to be deposited both polyalkylene glycols or their derivatives, wetting agents with fluorinated or perfluorinated hydrophobic chains, as well as polyalkylene oxide substituted quaternary ammonium compounds are suitable. These compounds have a wide range of uses for the production of emulsions in electrolytes of various metals and can be used individually.
Im Fall der Polyalkylenglykole als Emulsions- und/oder Dispersionsbildner erwiesen sich neben homogen aufgebauten Polymeren insbesondere Polymere mit unterschiedlichen prozentualen Anteilen an hydrophilen und hydrophoben Strukturen, bevorzugt bestehend aus Polyethlen- und Polypropylenglykolen. Hierbei entscheidet unter anderem der prozentuale Anteil an hydrophilen und hydrophoben Strukturen in Abhängigkeit der mittleren molaren Masse den Mattigkeitsgrad der abgeschiedenen Metallschicht, wobei generell mittlere Molmassen > 200 g/Mol, für Polymere mit hohem prozentualen Anteil hydrophober Strukturen bevorzugt 200 bis 2000 g/Mol und noch bevorzugter für Polymere mit hohem prozentualem Anteil hydrophiler Strukturen > 4000 g/Mol geeignet sind.In the case of the polyalkylene glycols as emulsion and / or dispersion formers, in addition to polymers of homogeneous structure, in particular polymers having different percentage fractions of hydrophilic and hydrophobic structures, preferably consisting of polyethylene glycols and polypropylene glycols, have been found. Among other things, the percentage of hydrophilic and hydrophobic structures as a function of the average molar mass decides the degree of dullness of the deposited metal layer, wherein generally average molecular weights> 200 g / mol, for polymers with a high percentage of hydrophobic structures preferably 200 to 2000 g / mol and even more preferably for polymers with a high percentage of hydrophilic structures> 4000 g / mol are suitable.
Beim Einsatz fluorierter oder perfluorierter Netzmittel erwiesen sich Netzmittel der allgemeinen FormelWhen using fluorinated or perfluorinated wetting agents wetting agents of the general formula proved
R1CH2CH2O(CH2CH2O)xH (Formel 1)R 1 CH 2 CH 2 O (CH 2 CH 2 O) x H (formula 1)
mit Rf = F(CF2CF2)n , wobei X = 6 bis 15 und n = 2 bis 10 ist, als besonders geeignet. Das mittlere Molekulargewicht der fluorierten oder perfluorierten Netzmittel liegt erfindungsgemäß zwischen ungefähr 550 und ungefähr 1000 g/Mol, vorzugsweise zwischen ungefähr 700 und ungefähr 1000 g/Mol. Auch hier nimmt das mittlere Molekulargewicht Einfluß auf den Mattheitsgrad.with R f = F (CF 2 CF 2 ) n, where X = 6 to 15 and n = 2 to 10, as particularly suitable. The average molecular weight of the fluorinated or perfluorinated wetting agents according to the invention is between about 550 and about 1000 g / mol, preferably between about 700 and about 1000 g / mol. Again, the average molecular weight influence the matte degree.
Eine weitere geeignete Art von Netzmitteln zur erfindungsgemäßen Abscheidung matter Metallschichten aus Elektrolyten sind Polyalkylenoxid substituierte quartäre Ammoniumverbindungen, welche vorzugsweise der allgemeinen FormelAnother suitable type of wetting agents for depositing matt metal layers from electrolytes according to the invention are polyalkylene oxide-substituted quaternary ammonium compounds, which preferably have the general formula
(Formel 2) wobei wenigstens ein Rest R1, R2, R3 oder R4 ein Polyalkylenoxid Substituent ist und die verbleibenden Reste unabhängig voneinander gleiche oder unterschiedliche geradkettige oder verzweigte, gesättigte oder ungesättigte Ci bis C18 Alkylketten sind und X" ein Halogenid, ein Sulfatanion oder Anion einer C1 bis C6 Carbonsäure ist, gehorchen. Es hat sich herausgestellt, daß insbesondere quartäre Ammoniumverbindungen der allgemeinen Formel 2 geeignet sind, bei denen R1 und R2 eine Ce bis C-12, bevorzugt eine Ci0 Alkylseitenkette ist, R3 eine Ci bis C-3, bevorzugt eine Ci Alkylseitenkette ist, R4 der allgemeinen Formel [CH2-CH2-O]n H mit n = 1 bis 5 entspricht und X' das Anion einer C2 bis C4 Carbonsäure ist.(Formula 2) wherein at least one radical R 1 , R 2 , R 3 or R 4 is a polyalkylene oxide substituent and the remaining radicals are independently identical or different straight-chain or branched, saturated or unsaturated C 1 to C 18 alkyl chains and X "is a halide, a sulfate anion or anion a C 1 to C 6 carboxylic acid, obey. It has been found that in particular, quaternary ammonium compounds of general formula 2 are suitable in which R 1 and R 2 is a Ce to C 1 2, preferably a Ci 0 alkyl side chain, R 3 is a Ci to C- 3 , preferably a Ci alkyl side chain, R 4 of the general formula [CH 2 -CH 2 -O] n H with n = 1 to 5 and X 'is the anion of a C 2 to C 4 carboxylic acid.
Das mittlere Molekulargewicht der erfindungsgemäß dem Elektrolyten zugesetzten quartären Ammoniumverbindungen liegt zwischen ungefähr 200 bis ungefähr 1000 g/Mol, bevorzugt zwischen ungefähr 400 und ungefähr 500 g/Mol und noch bevorzugter zwischen ungefähr 450 und ungefähr 460 g/Mol.The average molecular weight of the quaternary ammonium compounds added to the electrolyte in the present invention is from about 200 to about 1000 g / mol, preferably from about 400 to about 500 g / mol, and more preferably from about 450 to about 460 g / mol.
Darüber hinaus hat sich herausgestellt, daß der Zusatz von Polytetrafluorethylen- Partikeln zum erfindungsgemäßen Elektrolyten einen Einfluß auf die Eigenschaften der abgeschiedenen matten Metallschichten ausübt. So zeigt sich bei der Abscheidung von matten Metallschichten aus erfindungsgemäßen Elektrolyten die zusätzlich Polytetrafluorethylen-Partikel enthalten eine taktil wesentlich weichere Oberfläche die darüber hinaus im Vergleich zu matten Metallschichten, die aus erfindungsgemäßen Elektrolyten ohne Zusatz von Polytetrafluorethylen-Partikeln abgeschieden wurden, auch noch eine deutlich geringere Empfindlichkeit gegenüber Fingerflecken (touch free) zeigt.In addition, it has been found that the addition of polytetrafluoroethylene particles to the electrolyte according to the invention exerts an influence on the properties of the deposited matt metal layers. Thus, in the deposition of matte metal layers of inventive electrolyte, the additional polytetrafluoroethylene particles contain a tactile much softer surface which also compared to matte metal layers, which were deposited from electrolytes according to the invention without the addition of polytetrafluoroethylene particles, even a much lower Sensitivity to finger marks (touch free) shows.
Es wurde herausgefunden, daß der mittlere Partikeldurchmesser der zugesetzten Polytetrafluorethylen-Partikel im Bereich von ungefähr 10 bis ungefähr 1000 nm, vorzugsweise ungefähr 100 bis ungefähr 300 nm liegen sollte.It has been found that the average particle diameter of the added polytetrafluoroethylene particles should be in the range of about 10 to about 1000 nm, preferably about 100 to about 300 nm.
Erfindungsgemäß können die Polytetrafluorethylen-Partikel in einer Konzentration zwischen ungefähr 0,1 und 1000 mg/l, bevorzugt zwischen ungefähr 0,5 und 5 mg/l zugesetzt werden. Die nachfolgenden Beispiele zeigen Ausführungen des erfindungsgemäßen Elektrolyten sowie des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens, ohne daß sich die Erfindung jedoch auf diese Ausführungsbeispiele beschränken läßt.According to the invention, the polytetrafluoroethylene particles may be added in a concentration between about 0.1 and 1000 mg / l, preferably between about 0.5 and 5 mg / l. The following examples show embodiments of the electrolyte according to the invention and the method according to the invention, but without the invention being limited to these embodiments.
Beispiel 1example 1
Ein Cu-Elektrolyt mit folgender Zusammensetzung:A Cu electrolyte with the following composition:
55 g/l Cu2+ 55 g / l Cu 2+
66 g/l H2SO4 66 g / l H 2 SO 4
100 mg/l Cl" 100 mg / l Cl "
200 mg/l Bis-(3-Sulfopropyl)-disulfid, Dinatriumsalz200 mg / l bis (3-sulfopropyl) disulfide, disodium salt
wird mit 2 g/I Polypropylenglykol mit einer Molmasse von 900 g/Mol versetzt. Auf einem Winkelblech wird 10 min bei 5 A/dm2 und 35°C galvanisiert, wobei die Kathode 2 m/min bewegt wird.is added with 2 g / l polypropylene glycol having a molecular weight of 900 g / mol. On an angle plate is galvanized for 10 min at 5 A / dm 2 and 35 ° C, the cathode is moved 2 m / min.
Luftbewegung ist nicht nötig. Erstaunlicherweise erfolgt ein gleichmäßiger Perlglanzeffekt im hohen und niedrigen Stromdichtebereich. Aufgrund der minimalen Mengen an organischen Glanzzusätzen kommt es nicht zu Haftfestigkeitsproblemen bei Stromunterbrechung und können es anschließend haftfest Schichten aus einem sauren Bronzeelektrolyten oder aus einem dreiwertigen Chromelektrolyten abgeschieden werden. Der Mattigkeitsgrad des Perlglanzeffektes kann durch die Konzentration des Polymers gesteuert werden. Durch einfache Filtration über Celite wird der gesamte Perlglanzzμsatz entfernt.Air movement is not necessary. Surprisingly, a uniform pearlescent effect occurs in the high and low current density range. Due to the minimal amount of organic brightener additives, there are no adhesion problems in the case of power interruption and then it can be adhered to layers of an acidic bronze electrolyte or of a trivalent chromium electrolyte. The degree of matte of the pearlescent effect can be controlled by the concentration of the polymer. By simply filtering over Celite, the entire pearlescent additive is removed.
