Definitions
- the present invention relates to a pickling solution and to a process for pickling plastic surfaces.
- the present invention relates to a pickling solution and to a pickling process for pickling ABS plastic surfaces or ABS polymer blend surfaces prior to a subsequent metallization of these surfaces.
- Plastic surfaces are frequently coated with suitable metal layers either for technical reasons or for decorative reasons. In the case of technically reasoned coatings the same can be applied for instance for forming electrically conducting structures on the plastic surfaces. If the coating is applied for decorative reasons, plastic surfaces having a high quality appearance will be produced in this way. Especially in the field of automotive construction decoratively metalized plastic surfaces are widely spread. In the domain of electronic and electrical engineering conductive structures are deposited for instance on plastic boards for forming integrated circuits by means of suitable metal deposition processes.
- plastic surfaces are treated with chromium(VI) containing pickling solutions.
- solutions which are based on chromium- sulfuric acid can include for instance chromium(VI) oxide and sulfuric acid at a weight ratio of 1 : 1.
- chromium(VI) containing pickling solutions for plastic surfaces are pickling solutions based on alkali permanganates.
- pickling solutions based on alkali permanganates, preferably potassium permanganate, and a mineral acid like for instance phosphoric acid are used.
- the pickling solutions thus prepared are free of chromium(VI) containing compounds and exhibit a good pickling effect for plastic surfaces, especially plastic surfaces from ABS plastic.
- Alkali permanganate-based pickling solutions typically contain up to 20 g/1 of alkali permanganate in a corresponding mineral acid solution such as a 40 to 85% phosphoric acid.
- the alkali permanganate which is used is subject to a rapid self-decomposition, so that the pickling effect of a freshly prepared alkali permanganate pickling solution will be insufficient already after several hours.
- colloidal manganese(IV) compounds are apparently produced which neither allow filtering nor centrifuging.
- the pickling solution which has lost its pickling effect can be re-sharpened by the addition of alkali permanganate.
- the colloidal manganese(IV) decomposition products, manganese(II) ions as well as the alkali ions become even more enriched within the pickling solution.
- the viscosity of the pickling solution will be increased up to a point where the pickling solution must be discarded, because satisfying pickling results cannot be achieved any longer.
- a further drawback of the described alkali permanganate pickling solutions is the colloidal appearance of the decomposition products. Since these decomposition products, as described above, can neither be filtered nor centrifuged, these colloidal manganese(IV) compounds are frequently spread over the entire coating process of the plastic surfaces. [0011 ] But this spreading may lead to a strong influence on the deposition process, so that metal layers are finally deposited which are faulty or otherwise insufficient.
- this object is solved by a pickling solution for the surface pre-treatment of plastic surfaces, including Mn(VII) ions as well as an organic acid, characterized in that the pickling solution is free of alkali and alkaline- earth ions.
- the pickling solution in accordance with the invention includes an acid from the group consisting of phosphoric acid, peroxomonophosphoric acid, peroxodiphosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, peroxomonosulfuric acid or peroxodisulfuric acid.
- an acid from the group consisting of phosphoric acid, peroxomonophosphoric acid, peroxodiphosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, peroxomonosulfuric acid or peroxodisulfuric acid in one embodiment of the invention also a mixture of at least two of the above-mentioned acids can be used.
- the concentration of the Mn(VII) ions contained in the pickling solution is according to the invention within a range between 0.001 and 0.5 mol/1.
- the concentration of the inorganic acid from the mentioned group can amount between 1 and 18.5 mol/1.
- the pickling solution according to the invention can include further ions for supporting the pickling process.
- silver, bismuth, vanadium, molybdenum, lead or copper ions or mixtures thereof are particularly suited.
- the concentration of these further ions can be within a range between 0.001 and 2 mol/1, preferably between 0.001 and 0.01 mol/1.
- the addition of such further ions increases the efficiency and supports the formation of aggressive etching active substances, for which the brown colour of the pickling solution is characteristic.
- the pickling solution according to the invention can include further additives such as wetting agents or defoamers.
- the Mn(VII) ions contained in the pickling solution are obtained in accordance with the invention by means of an anodic oxidation inside an oxidation cell from a solution which includes Mn ions of a lower oxidation stage than (VII).
- the Mn ion containing solution is produced by dissolving or dispersing a suitable manganese salt in an acid solution.
- suitable manganese(II) salts are for instance MnC ⁇ 3, MnSO 4 , MnO, MnCk, Mn(CH3COO) 2 and Mn(NO3) 2 or mixtures thereof.
- Suitable manganese(III) salts are for instance Mn 2 O 3 , MnPO 4 , MnO(OH), Mn(CH 3 COO) 3 and MnF 3 or mixtures thereof.
- a suitable Mn(IV) salt is for instance MnO 2 .
- the acidic solution used for the oxidative production of Mn(VII) ions includes an acid from the group consisting of phosphoric acid, peroxomonophosphoric acid, peroxodiphosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, peroxomonosulfuric acid or peroxodisulfuric acid.
- the acid used in the solution for the oxidative production of Mn(VII) ions corresponds to the acid which is contained in the pickling solution.
- a mixture of at least two of the above-mentioned acids can be used.
- the production of Mn 7+ as well as the pickling process according to the invention can take place inside an oxidation cell.
- the oxidation cell which is used for this purpose includes an anode space and a cathode space which are separated from each other through a diaphragm or a membrane correspondingly allowing ions to pass through.
- an anode mixed oxide electrodes are suited such as an iridium/ruthenium mixed oxide coated titanium electrode for instance.
- diamond coated niobium anodes anodes from massive platinum or platinum-plated anodes are suitable.
- the anode material which is used must exhibit a sufficiently high oxygen overvoltage for allowing an oxidation of Mn ions of a lower oxidation stage into Mn(VII).
- the oxygen overvoltage of anode material must be low enough to avoid the formation of peroxomonosulphate, peroxidisulphate, and H 2 O 2 .
- corrosion- resistant electrodes for instance such consisting of stainless steel or graphite are suitable. A precondition for the employed cathode material is that the same is resistant to the acid contained in the catolyte.
- the anolyte can consist of a concentrated acid and a Mn ion releasing compound dissolved therein.
- a suitable anolyte solution consists for instance of 0.1 to 0.3 mol/1 manganese carbonate in 85% phosphoric acid.
- the catolyte can consist of a correspondingly diluted mineral acid such as for instance 50% phosphoric acid solution.
- a current density of 0.1 to 100 A/dm 2 preferably 1 to 50 A/dm 2 and even more preferably 2 to 25 A/dm 2 .
- the anodic oxidation can advantageously be increased in its efficiency by applying a reverse pulse current.
- the pickling solution thus formed in the anolyte exhibits a sufficient permanganese concentration in order to pickle plastic surfaces such as for instance surfaces of ABS plastic or ABS blends.
- the pickling solution itself merely contains H + and Mn 2+ ions.
- the pickling solution according to the invention preserves its pickling effect also at an increased temperature such as e.g. 50 0 C for many days, which fact is indicative of a high stability of the pickling solution.
- alkali permanganese pickling solutions completely lose their pickling effect within 24 hours.
- the working temperature of the inventive pickling solution can be in the range of between about 20 0 C and about 90 0 C, with a preferred range between about 55°C and about 80 0 C.
- phosphoric acid is used in combination with sulphuric acid.
- the acids were used in a ratio of 80% phosphoric acid to 20% sulphuric acid.
- the addition of sulphuric acid to phosphoric acid gains to an increase of the electrochemical efficiency, which results in an increased etching effect.
- an aqueous solution of sulphuric acid was used as inorganic acid.
- concentration of the sulphuric acid in this aqueous acidic solution can be within a range of about 800 g/1 to about 1400 g/1, with the preferred range of about 1100 g/1.
- the manganese concentration in the sulphuric acid comprising aqueous solution can be as high as possible, so that the solution is saturated with manganese at the working temperature. For example, in an aqueous solution comprising 1100 g/1 H 2 SO 4 at a temperature of 65°C about 91 mmol/1 can be dissolved.
- a preferred source for manganese is MnSO 4 * 4H 2 O, whereby also manganese salts having a low oxidation state are usable.
- the object of the invention is solved by a process for pickling plastic surfaces, comprising a step of contacting the plastic surface to be pickled with an acidic treatment solution free of alkali or alkaline earth and including Mn(VII) ions.
- the contacting of the plastic surface to be pickled with the acidic Mn(VII) ions containing treatment solution which is free of alkali and alkaline earth takes place inside a device formed by an anode space and a cathode space, characterized in that the plastic surface to be pickled is contacted with the acidic Mn(VII) ions containing treatment solution which is free of alkali and alkaline earth inside the anode space or inside a working container which is hydraulically connected to the anode space, wherein the anode space is filled with an acidic solution including a compound which releases Mn ions of a lower oxidation stage and wherein the two electrode spaces are separated from each other by a diaphragm or a membrane correspondingly allowing ions to pass through and wherein the Mn(VII) ions contained in the pickling solution are produced through anodic oxidation by means of applying a suitable voltage.
- Equation 1 HMnO 4 + H 3 PO 4 ⁇ MnPO 4 + 2H 2 O + O 2
- Equation 2 MnO 4 " + 8H + + 5e- Mn 2+ + 4H 2 O
- Equation 3 HMnO 4 + 4MnHPO 4 + H 3 PO 4 + H 2 O ⁇ 5MnPO 4 +4H 2 O
- Equation 4 4 HMnO 4 + 4H 3 PO 4 ⁇ MnHPO 4 + 6H 2 O + 5O 2 1
- the Mn 2+ that has been formed can be oxidized.
- the manganese phosphate that has been formed must be separated, because the same may block the anode surface and has a negative influence on the further progress of the coating process.
- the manganese phosphate that has been separated by filtration or other techniques can be converted by means of an appropriate reducing agent such as oxalic acid, ascorbic acid or also hydrogen peroxide in a stoichiometric or slightly hypostoichiometric amount.
- the reducing agent is advantageously added as a concentrated solution by means of a dosing pump.
- the non-soluble Mn(III) phosphate is changed into soluble Mn 2+ compounds.
- the Mn(II) compounds thus obtained can be recirculated as a reactant to the anodic oxidation.
- the manganese(III) phosphate can also be boiled up in a part of the pickling solution, whereat the non-soluble manganese(III) phosphates are changed into soluble manganese compounds without the addition of further reagent phosphate.
- the surface is chemically etched in such a way that the caverns necessary for the provision of good adhesion are generated.
- the thus prepared surface can then be metalized following the steps known to one skilled in the art, in a similar way as after the pickling process in a chromium sulfuric acid solution.
- all known metallizing systems come into consideration, of which the colloidal activation, the ionogeneous activation and the direct metallizing systems may be mentioned for example.
- the deposited layers are free of delaminations and exhibit a good adhesive strength.
- This pickling solution additionally contains 2 mmol/L silver ions which have been added as silver carbonate.
- the thus prepared surface can then be metalized following the steps known to one skilled in the art, in a similar way as after the pickling process in a chromium sulfuric acid solution.
- all known metallizing systems come into consideration, of which the colloidal activation, the ionogeneous activation and the direct metallizing systems may be mentioned for example.
