Problems solved by technology

[0007] The present invention aims at the deficiencies of the existing boric acid system and the problem that the electroplating of nickel in the nickel-ammonia complex alkaline system becomes black and brittle, and proposes an alkaline electrolyte and a method for electroplating nickel in the alkaline system. Adding an appropriate amount of sodium benzenesulfinate to the nickel-ammonia complex alkaline system in the neutral electrolyte can effectively solve the problem that the deposited nickel layer is black and brittle, and successfully electroplates flat and bright nickel. This method has high current efficiency and the prepared Bright nickel, good toughness, good bonding force, etc.

Embodiment 1

[0031] Configure 250mL of electrolyte containing nickel chloride 30g / L, ammonium chloride 40g / L, ammonia water 50g / L, and sodium benzenesulfinate 0.05g / L. Use a ruthenium-titanium electrode anode, soak it in 1mol / L hydrochloric acid for 20 minutes to remove impurities attached to the surface, take it out, rinse it with deionized water, and dry it with cold air. Using stainless steel as the cathode material, after grinding with 1#, 3#, and 5# sandpaper, degreasing with absolute ethanol, washing with deionized water and drying with cold air, put the cathode and anode into the electrolytic cell at the same time, and control the electrodeposition temperature to 20℃, the current density is -100A / m 2 , Stir the electrolyte at a speed of 200r / min. After 60 minutes of electrodeposition, take out the cathode, rinse the residual electrolyte on the surface with water, and dry it with cold air to obtain a bright and smooth nickel-plated layer.

Abstract

The invention discloses an alkaline electrolyte and a nickel electroplating method in an alkaline system. The alkaline electrolyte comprises nickel chloride, ammonium chloride, ammonium hydroxide, sodium benzene sulphinate and water, the concentration of nickel chloride is 30 to 500g / L; the concentration of ammonium chloride is 40 to 400g / L; the concentration of ammonium hydroxide is 50 to 500g / L; and the concentration of sodium benzene sulphinate is 0.05 to 2g / L. The nickel electroplating method in the alkaline system comprises the steps of (1) preparing the alkaline electrolyte; (2) carrying out surface oxidation layer removing and deoiling treatment on a cathode material, and soaking an anode material in hydrochloric acid to remove surface impurities; and (3) putting the cathode material and the anode material subjected to pretreatment in an electrolytic bath holding the alkaline electrolyte for electrodeposition, taking out the cathode material, washing with water, and drying the cathode material by blowing with cold air to obtain a bright and flat nickel-plated layer. According to the alkaline electrolyte and the nickel electroplating method, the problem that a deposited nickel layer is black and brittle can be effectively solved through the alkaline electrolyte, flat and bright nickel is electroplated successfully, and the method has the advantages that the current efficiency is high and the prepared nickel is bright in color and good in toughness and binding force.

Description

(1) Technical field [0001] The invention relates to an alkaline electrolyte and a method for electroplating nickel in the alkaline system, belonging to the technical field of electroplating. (2) Background technology [0002] In the current industrial production of electroplating nickel, nickel plating is mainly carried out with the Watts nickel plating solution of the boric acid system. This process has been continuously improved and matured after decades of transformation and innovation. , the traditional electroplating nickel process increasingly reveals its shortcomings in production. The disadvantages of the traditional nickel plating process are as follows: [0003] 1. Using the acid system electrodeposition nickel process, using boric acid as a buffer, it is necessary to strictly control the pH within the range of 4.5 to 5.4. If the pH is too low, the efficiency of the cathode will decrease, and if the pH is too high, it will lead to the formation of nickel hydroxide...
