2. Description of the Related Art Iridium is a metal having high hardness and excellent corrosion resistance to a high concentration of acid, aqua regia, or halogens. In recent years, with the development of plating technology, a technology for industrially widely using iridium plating as a material for not only decorative articles but also anti-corrosion materials and electrical contacts has been developed. Due to its excellent properties, not only iridium plating alone but also alloy plating of iridium and platinum has been adopted in the field of electrodes for producing soda alkaline water and electroplating (as a similar technique, Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 48-65128).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION As described above, the content of the iridium compound can be used in the range of 1 to 30 g / l in terms of metal iridium concentration, but is preferably in the range of 5 to 20 g / l. If it is less than 1 g / l, the upper limit of the current density becomes small and it becomes difficult to put it to practical use. If it is more than 30 g / l, the cost becomes high and it becomes practically unsuitable.

[0010] The plating method of the present invention is characterized in that the plating is performed in a weakly acidic bath having a pH of 1 to 8 (the best being pH 4 to 5). The reason for setting the pH to 1 to 8 is that if the pH is lower than 1, the upper limit of the current density becomes smaller, and the life of the bath also becomes shorter. p
This is because if H is larger than 8, a hydroxide is formed and precipitation occurs.

If the temperature is lower than 50 ° C., precipitation is extremely unlikely to occur, and if the temperature is higher than 98 ° C., evaporation of water becomes severe, which is not practically preferable. When the current density is lower than 0.1 A / dm 2 , the deposition rate becomes extremely low. When the current density is higher than 3.0 A / dm 2 , hydrogen is generated, and no precipitate is deposited.

In the plating method of the present invention, the ratio of platinum to iridium can be controlled by changing the concentration of platinum in the bath or changing the current density. That is, if the concentration of platinum in the bath is increased, the ratio of platinum in the precipitate can be increased, and if the current density is increased, the ratio of platinum in the precipitate can be reduced. Therefore, a gradient function can be given to the composition of the precipitate by changing the above two factors during plating. That is, within the thickness of the precipitate having a predetermined thickness, the platinum ratio can be gradually changed from the base layer side to the surface layer side. Therefore, a platinum-iridium alloy plating layer suitable for the intended use can be obtained.

Further, experiments were conducted by changing the platinum concentration of the bath of Example 1. As shown in FIG. 1, it was found that the higher the platinum concentration of the alloy plating bath, the higher the platinum ratio of the precipitate. . Therefore, if the platinum concentration is changed during plating, a precipitate having a different platinum ratio between the surface layer side and the underlayer side in the precipitate can be obtained.
