The invention provides a gold-silver-
rhodium multilayer composite plating process. According to the process, a rhodanizing
coating does not crack, bubbling, peeling and falling off of each plating can be avoided, platings are well combined and do not discolor, the service life is high, and movement of a silver plating can be effectively constrained at a high temperature. According to the technical scheme, a cyaniding pre-silver-plating process is added before
gold plating, a 3ml / L-8ml / L of cyaniding silver plating solution is added in a cyaniding tank, a reversing power supply is adopted after cyaniding, and a thin silver layer is plated reversely in the solution, after the cyaniding pre-silver-plating process, citrate is adopted for
gold plating; after the
gold plating, silver is plated through cyaniding,
rhodium is plated through
phosphate, after the
rhodium plating,
vacuum annealing heat treatment is performed at the temperature of 900-950 DEG C to evenly coat the three
precious metal of the gold, the silver and the rhodium on the surface of a part. According to the process, under the condition that a rhodium plating of a
contact type switching element such as a
reed switch can not be welded, one end of a workpiece can be welded with a wire or sealed with glass, and bubbles, cracks and
air tightness problems are not easy to cause.
