DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION In electrolytic nickel plating, the present invention provides
This invention relates to a method for automatically controlling the value of nickel ions, recovering gradually increasing nickel ions, and preventing an increase in the plating solution concentration.

The composition of the plating solution used in electrolytic nickel plating is generally the following: 0 nickel sulfate (
NtS 04・6H20) 280±20977
! Nickel chloride (N s C4・6H20) 45±
5 g/l boric acid (H3BO3) 40±
5 g/13 In addition, the pH value of the plating solution is 3.8 to 4.
Appropriate amount of sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid and other additives to adjust to the range of 2. As plating conditions here, I) H value is very important,
If the pH value is high, nickel hydroxide will be included in the plating film, resulting in poor adhesion, while if the pH value is low, pits will occur due to hydrogen generation, resulting in problems such as reduced current efficiency. It is something that occurs.

The precipitation efficiency of formula (c) is about 97%, and the remaining 3% is spent in formula (c) to generate hydrogen gas.

従ってめっき液中にはニッケルイオン(Ni ” )が
漸増し、このイオンが酸と結合して硫酸ニッケルや塩化
ニッケルとなり酸が減少するためにめっき液のpH値が
上昇することになる。
Therefore, nickel ions (Ni'') gradually increase in the plating solution, and these ions combine with the acid to form nickel sulfate or nickel chloride, which causes the acid to decrease and the pH value of the plating solution to rise.

したがって実際の操業においては絶えずpH値を測定し

Therefore, in actual operation, it is necessary to constantly measure the pH value and control the pH value by adding sulfuric acid or the like based on the results.

の濃度が増加し、再結晶化の問題も生じる。
On the other hand, the concentration of the plating solution increases due to the gradual increase in nickel ions, which also causes the problem of recrystallization.

In the past, the gradual increase in nickel ions in the plating solution did not pose much of a problem because some of the plating solution adhered to the items being plated and was carried out to the outside. Since the adhering plating solution has become almost completely recovered, an increase in concentration has become a problem, and it has become necessary to separately treat it to make it non-polluting before disposing of it.

In view of the above circumstances, the present invention has been developed in addition to a plating bath.
A measuring tank and an ion exchange resin tower are installed, and the plating solution is first pumped into the pH measuring tank, and if the pH value is higher than the preset value, the plating solution is further pumped into the ion exchange resin tower, and the nickel sulfate and chloride that are gradually increased are pumped into the ion exchange resin tower. The pH value is lowered by adsorbing nickel, and the resin saturated with these is separately reacted with sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid to recover nickel ions.

On the other hand, if the pH value is below a preset value, the plating solution is circulated between the plating tank and the pH measuring tank without being sent to the ion exchange resin tower.

By the above method, the I)H value of the plating solution is controlled within a predetermined range, and nickel ions which gradually increase are recovered.

以下に本発明を実施例にもとづいて説明する。The present invention will be explained below based on examples.

FIG. 1 schematically shows an embodiment of the present invention, in which a plating solution is sent from a plating tank 1 to a pH measuring tank 3 by a pump 2, but the liquid level in the pH measuring tank 3 is controlled by a switch without a float. 4.

A normal I)H measuring device 5 is installed in the pH measuring tank 3, and the measurement results are input to a controller 6, which controls the drive of the pump 1.

即ち測定されたpH値があらかじめ設定された値以上の
ときはポンプ1を駆動してめっき液を更にイオン交換塔

That is, when the measured pH value is higher than a preset value, the pump 1 is driven to further send the plating solution to the ion exchange tower 8.

逆に測定されたpH値が所定の範囲内に入っておれば、
めっき液をイオン交換塔に送ることなくポンプのみを駆

Conversely, if the measured pH value is within the specified range,
By driving only the pump without sending the plating solution to the ion exchange tower, the plating solution is circulated only between the plating tank and the H measurement tank.

そしてこの状態で操業を続けた結果、pH値が除々に上

As a result of continuing the operation in this state, when the pH value gradually increases and reaches a predetermined value or more, the pump γ is driven and the plating solution is sent to the ion exchange tower 8.

The ion exchange column 8 is loaded with a strongly acidic cation exchange resin regenerated with hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid, and the adsorption reaction when the plating solution is passed through it is as follows.

2(R803H)十NlSO4 →2(R−803)Nj+H2SO4 2(RSO3H) 十NICA’2 →2 (R−803) Ni + 2 HCIJこの様

2 (R803H) 10 NlSO4 → 2 (R-803) Nj + H2SO4 2 (RSO3H) 10 NICA'2 → 2 (R-803) Ni + 2 HCIJ In this way, nickel sulfate and nickel chloride salts are adsorbed, and sulfuric acid and Hydrochloric acid is produced and the pH value of the tightening solution decreases.

Ion exchange towers are operated in the usual manner, but depending on the scale of the tower, two ion exchange towers can be installed and each one can alternately adsorb and recover cations, allowing constant operation, but the operating rate is low. In some cases, it is also possible to install only one ion exchange column and perform the recovery reaction while the plating solution is not being sent.

When the ion exchange resin is saturated with salt, the resin is regenerated through hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid, and the reaction at that time is as follows.

As explained above, by carrying out the present invention, there is no need for conventionally measuring the pH value of the plating solution and adding sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid based on the results, and there is no fear that the plating solution will crystallize. The gradually increasing amount of nickel ions can be recovered as nickel sulfate and nickel chloride.
