AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Some cyanide-free silver plating cannot be used for thick silver plating due to low current density and slow deposition rate, let alone high-speed electroplating
2) The stability of the plating solution
There are problems with the stability of many cyanide-free silver plating baths, whether it is alkaline bath or acidic bath or neutral bath, there are bath stability problems to varying degrees, which brings inconvenience to management and operation. cost also increased
3) The process performance cannot meet the needs of electroplating processing
Cyanide-free silver plating often has poor dispersion ability, low cathode current density, and easy passivation of the anode, which limits its application.

Abstract

The invention discloses non-cyanide bright silver electroplating bath, which consists of the following components in mass concentration: 50 to 800mg / L brightener, 25 to 60g / L silver ion source substance, 130 to 190g / L coordinating agent, 10 to 40g / L supporting electrolyte and 10 to 50g / L electroplating bath pH regulator, wherein the brightener is one or more kinds of amino acid compounds, imidazole, polyethylene glycol, quinoline derivatives and saccharin. Compared with the prior art, the non-cyanide bright silver electroplating bath has the outstanding advantages that: the electroplating bath is stable and low in toxicity; and an extremely small amount of brightener can obviously improve the performance of the electroplating bath and the quality of a coating. The coating has fine crystals, good bonding force, smooth and bright surface and high anti-tarnish property, can meet the requirement of application in multiple fields such as decorative electroplating, functional electroplatingand the like, has high practicability and can generate good economic and social benefits.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electrochemical silver plating, and relates to a cyanide-free electroplating solution for silver plating, in particular to a bright cyanide-free silver plating solution and a configuration method thereof. Background technique [0002] The silver-plated layer has high electrical and thermal conductivity, good welding performance, high chemical stability to organic acids and alkalis, and its price is cheaper than other precious metals. It has been widely used in the electronics industry, decorations, tableware and various A variety of handicrafts and other fields. Due to the advantages of high current efficiency, good dispersing ability, strong covering ability, and fine crystallization of the coating, so far, most of the silver plating processes at home and abroad still use the cyanide silver plating process to electroplate the silver layer. However, cyanide silver plating solution is highly toxic, seriou...
