Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the plating bondability and corrosion resistance of an electronic wrist watch by base plating by electroless copper-plating a rotor made of a rare earth iron magnet. CONSTITUTION:Degreased and derusted rare earth iron rotor is base-plated by electroless copper-plating to be next finish-plated as desired. The electroless copper-plating is properly performed by chemical copper-plating bath which uses formalin as reducing reagent to be plated at a temp. approx to ambient temperature. In order to improve plating bondability, it is preferable to sensitize it in advance by stannous chlorine solution and to activate it by palladium chloride solution. The thickness of the copper plating is 1 micron or larger to allow it to endure against various finish platings.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) Rare earth iron magnets are sensitive to acids and alkaline solutions, and the surface of the magnet is attacked during the normal plating process. In addition, since it is a sintered alloy, it has an internal structure that is essentially full of holes, so even if it appears to be plated, chemicals, etc. will seep out from inside over time, causing the plating to become dull, discolored, and rusted. There were problems such as the occurrence of The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems and provides an electronic wristwatch having a rare earth iron magnet rotor with excellent plating adhesion and good resistance.
