Problems solved by technology

[0006] The electroplating of magnesium and magnesium alloys is very difficult. The reasons include: (1) the chemical properties of magnesium and magnesium alloys are active, and magnesium oxide will form rapidly on the surface of the alloy, hindering metal deposition; The replacement reaction with other metal ions in the solution is strong, resulting in loose bonding of the coating; (3) poor casting quality, resulting in increased porosity of the coating and reduced corrosion resistance; (4) because the standard potential of the coating is much greater than that of the magnesium alloy substrate, so The coating must be non-porous, otherwise electrochemical corrosion will be faster

Abstract

The present invention provides an electroplating method of magnesium and magnesium alloy. The technology comprises dehydrogen, chemical degreasing, shining, neutralization, activation, pre-plating, functional plating, decorative plating and post treatment. The cast workpiece must be water-washed between every two procedures. The current density of pre-plating is 5-15 A / dm2, cell voltage 4-12 V, pH value of pre-plating solution 1.0-1.2, and Baume degree at room temperature is 30-35. Pre-plating solution recipe contains: copper fluoborate, fluoboric acid, alanine, polyethylene glycol and alizarin dye, mixture of itaconic acid and MBT, 3-S isothiourea onium salt propane sulfonate ,R-S-S(CH2)SO3Na and deionization water. The pre-plating solution of the present invention is cyanogen free, non-toxic and non-hazardous. Bond strength between pre-plating layer and substrate material and between pre-plating layer and the post functional plating layer or decorative plating layer is good. The plating layer is bright and has good corrosion resistance, wear resistance and decorative effect.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of surface treatment of metals, in particular to electroplating methods of magnesium and magnesium alloys. Background technique [0002] As a kind of lightweight engineering structural materials, magnesium and magnesium alloys are used more and more widely, because magnesium and magnesium alloys have the advantages of good shock absorption, low density, high specific strength and high specific rigidity. However, magnesium and magnesium alloys also have disadvantages such as poor heat resistance, poor corrosion resistance, poor wear resistance and poor decoration, which limit their application fields. At present, the main surface treatments of magnesium and magnesium alloys at home and abroad are as follows: [0003] 1. Chemical oxidation and electrochemical oxidation. After this method, the surface hardness is low, the decoration is poor, and the corrosion resistance is improved, but it cannot be used alo...
