Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method to electrodeposit a metal on a substrate using an ionic liquid as the electrolyte in the presence of an additive, and to the use of said additive to increase the layer thickness of the deposited metal layer.
- An ionic liquid is a salt in which the ions are poorly coordinated, which results in these solvents being liquid at temperatures below 100° C. Many are liquid even at room temperature. At least one ion in an ionic liquid has a delocalized charge and one component is organic, which prevents the formation of a stable crystal lattice. Ionic liquids generally have very low vapour pressure and thus, in contrast to many conventional solvents, produce virtually no hazardous vapours. It is known that, in general, ionic liquids may be used in many applications, e.g. as reaction solvents, extraction solvents, electrolytes in batteries and electrodeposition, catalysts, heat exchange fluids, as additives in coatings.
- Well-known systems include those formed from alkylpyridinium halides or dialkylimidazolium halides with an aluminium halide, and those based on choline chloride and a (hydrated) metal salt such as chromium (III) chloride. These systems have been utilized as electrolytes in electroplating, as described for example in EP 0 404 188 and EP 1 322 591.
- WO 2002/026381 discloses ionic liquids (eutectic mixtures) of choline chloride and a (hydrated) metal salt such as chromium (III) chloride and the use thereof in electrodeposition and electropolishing.
- the mixtures consist of choline chloride and the (hydrated) metal salt in a ratio of ammonium to metal ion of between 1:1 and 1:2.5 and are specifically said to be suitable for depositing chromium, cobalt, zinc or silver on a metal substrate.
- PCT/EP/2007/051329 describes a method to electroplate or electropolish a metal on a substrate wherein an ionic liquid selected from the group of
- any one of R 1 to R 8 independently represents a hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, or aralkyl group that may be substituted with a group selected from OH, Cl, Br, F, I, phenyl, NH 2 , CN, NO 2 , COOR 9 , CHO, COR 9 , or OR 9 , at least one of R 5 to R 8 is a fatty alkyl chain, and one or more of R 5 to R 8 can be a (poly)oxyalkylene group wherein the alkylene is a C 1 to C 4 alkylene and the total number of oxyalkylene units can be from 1 to 50 oxyalkylene units, and at least one of R 1 to R 8 is a C 1 to C 4 alkyl chain, R 9 is an alkyl or cycloalkyl
- ionic liquids as electrolytes in electrodeposition processes has several advantages.
- Conventional chromic acid plating processes are extremely hazardous because they mainly rely on hexavalent chromium, which is highly toxic and carcinogenic.
- Ionic liquids may eliminate the necessity to use hexavalent chromium and allow the use of trivalent chromium, which is considered to be far less dangerous.
- conventional chromium plating baths require the use of strong acids, which poses significant disposal problems, while the use of ionic liquids generally enables such disposal difficulties to be minimized or even eliminated.
- ionic liquids are non-volatile, so they do not cause atmospheric pollution.
- metal layers For some applications, such as decorative plating, having thin metal layers is acceptable. However, for applications where the metal layer needs to provide protection against wear or abrasion, or to improve hardness (functional plating), metal layers much thicker than 200 nm are required. More particularly, layers of several micrometers or even several tens of micrometers are desirable.
- the present invention relates to the use of amorphous silica, graphite powder, or a mixture thereof as additive in a process to electroplate or electropolish a metal on a substrate wherein an ionic liquid is employed as the electrolyte to increase metal layer thickness.
- Additives have been added to the ionic liquid comprising electrolyte for several reasons.
- U.S. Pat. No. 7,196,221 discloses the use of brightening agents to improve the appearance of the coatings obtained in ionic liquid solvents/electrolytes during metal plating and electropolishing processes, and in particular in chromium plating processes.
- the brightening agents include thiourea, saccharin, vanillin, allyl urea, nicotinic acid, citric acid, gelatin, 2-mercaptobenzothiazole, tetraethylammonium fluoride dihydrate or tetramethyl-ammonium hydroxide pentahydrate.
- these additives have an adverse effect on the homogeneity of the deposited layer, or no effect at all.
- WO 2006/074523 relates to a process for the recovery of platinum group metal, which comprises electrodeposition of the platinum group metal from an ionic liquid wherein redox reagents, complexing agents, conductivity enhancers may be present.
- U.S. Pat. No. 6,552,843 which is concerned with devices, such as adjustable mirrors, smart windows, optical attenuators, and displays, for controlling the reflectance and/or transmission of electromagnetic radiation, discloses a reversible electrodeposition optical modulation device employing an ionic liquid electrolyte.

- the electrodepositable metal is silver, copper, tin, zinc, palladium, bismuth, cadmium, mercury, indium, lead, antimony, thallium, and alloys thereof. It is mentioned that said ionic liquid electrolyte may be rendered more viscous, semi-solid or solid by addition of organic or inorganic gelling agents. Inorganic or organic materials, including suspended carbon and dissolved dyes, may be added to the electrolyte to impart a desired colour or to reduce background reflection.

- Another application uses electroplating to build up thickness on undersized parts.
- electropolishing is meant smoothing and enhancing the appearance of an originally rough or uneven metal surface by coating it with a relatively thin metal layer.
- the additive used according to the present invention to increase the thickness of the deposited metal layer is amorphous silica, graphite powder, or a mixture thereof.
