Definitions

  • the present invention is directed to an aqueous electrolyte for depositing a ruthenium alloy layer onto metallic surfaces, particularly base metallic surfaces.
  • Another subject of the present invention is the use of the electrolyte according to the invention for the production of ruthenium alloy layers on corresponding surfaces by an electrolytic process, which is also a subject of the invention.
  • the invention also encompasses layer sequences which have a ruthenium alloy layer deposited in this way.
  • palladium is often used as a coating for, for example, electrical connectors, printed circuit boards, decorative applications and many other industrial and commercial uses.
  • palladium represents an economical, more cost-effective alternative, since palladium also has a wide range of possible uses. Alloys of palladium with base metals such as nickel or cobalt are less expensive than pure precious metals, so such alloys have been and are used for a long time. Coatings of such palladium alloys are often produced by electrodeposition from Palladiumle alloy electrolytes.
  • the ruthenium baths and processes described in the prior art often relate to the deposition of black ruthenium and ruthenium alloy layers and may contain toxicologically questionable compounds such as thio compounds as blackening additives (e.g. DE102011105207B4 and the literature cited there). Due to their acidic character, these baths often only allow deposition on metals that are relatively noble in character (e.g. DE1959907A1).
  • a nitridochloro complex of ruthenium can be used in an aqueous, non-acidic bath for the electrodeposition of ruthenium. Such a method is described in US4297178. It also contains oxalic acid or an oxalate anion. According to this, only pure ruthenium deposits are generated, which, however, cannot replace palladium and palladium alloy deposits in this form without disadvantages.
  • Ruthenium deposits are mentioned, inter alia, in US3692641 or GB2101633. In the former, deposits of ruthenium with other precious metals, among others, are propagated. In the latter, ruthenium alloy deposits in an acidic environment are addressed.
  • WO18142430A1 describes the production of differently colored ruthenium or ruthenium alloy deposits, inter alia, with metals such as Ni, Co, Cu, Sn, etc. It is mentioned that deposits on base metallic substrates are possible. However, only strongly acidic electrolytes are presented here, which is why direct deposition on these substrates is certainly not possible. A possibility is also being sought of successfully avoiding palladium-containing layers in electrolytic deposition practice. For this, the replacing layers should have properties that are as similar as possible to layers containing palladium. This should apply in particular with regard to, inter alia, appearance, corrosion resistance, abrasion resistance and cracking characteristics. It should also be possible to deposit corresponding layers on base metal surfaces in order to be able to replace the Pd strike depositions that are frequently used for this purpose. In addition, replacing the palladium should of course result in cost savings.
  • Claims 2 to 7 are directed to preferred configurations of the electrolyte according to the invention.
  • Claims 8, 12 and 15, respectively, are directed with the corresponding subclaims to the use of the electrolyte, a method for electrolytic deposition from the electrolyte and a layer sequence obtainable therewith.

  • the chloro complex [Ru 2 N(H 2 O) 2 Cl 8 ] 3 is particularly preferred in this context.
  • the amount of the complex compound in the electrolyte according to the invention can preferably be chosen such that the concentration of ruthenium after complete dissolution of the compound is between 1 and 20 grams per liter of electrolyte, calculated as ruthenium metal.
  • the finished electrolyte particularly preferably contains 1 to 10 grams of ruthenium per liter of electrolyte, very particularly preferably 3 to 7 grams of ruthenium per liter of electrolyte.
  • the electrolyte contains certain organic compounds that have one or more carboxylic acid groups.
  • these are di-, tri-, or tetracarboxylic acids.

This applies in particular to the use of oxalic acid, which is believed to also serve as a conducting salt in the electrolyte.
  • anionic surfactants are used as wetting agents. These are, for example, those selected from the group consisting of fatty alcohol sulfates, alkyl sulfates, alkyl sulfonates, aryl sulfonates, alkylaryl sulfonates, heteroaryl sulfates and their salts and in particular their alkoxylated derivatives (see also: Kanani, N: Galvanotechnik; Hanser Verlag, Kunststoff Vienna, 2000; page 84 ff). Ethoxylated sodium fatty alcohol (C12-C14) ether sulfate or sodium fatty alcohol sulfate (C12-C14) are particularly preferred.

  • dissolved metals are also present in the electrolyte. These are electrolytically deposited together with the ruthenium as a ruthenium alloy layer. There are those selected from the group consisting of: Cu, W, Fe, Co, Ni, In, Zn, Sn, Pd, Pt in question. These are usually dissolved as salts, in particular as sulfates in the electrolyte.

It has been found that the addition of the alloying metal to the electrolyte according to the invention in the specified concentration ranges helps in particular to improve the corrosion resistance and the tendency for the ruthenium layer to form cracks. Ni in particular has shown good results here.
  • the present electrolyte can contain sulphur-containing compounds, such as the wetting agents or surfactants mentioned above. However, it is advantageous if the electrolyte does not contain any sulfur-containing compounds in which the sulfur is present in an oxidation state of ⁇ +4. In particular, blackening additives based on sulfur compounds are not present in the electrolyte according to the invention.
  • the present electrolyte does not produce a black or dark anthracite-colored deposit, but rather a greyish, metallic-looking deposit. It is thus even similar in appearance to the Pd and Pd alloy deposits to be replaced.
