Problems solved by technology

A lot of research has been done on zinc-nickel alloy electroplating processes at home and abroad, but most of them belong to the acid zinc-nickel alloy electroplating process, while the number of processes for electroplating zinc-nickel alloys in alkaline baths is small, the process is not mature, and there are coatings The nickel content is low (7-9%), the coating phase structure is not a single γ phase (the zinc-nickel alloy with a single γ phase has good corrosion resistance), and the cathode current efficiency is low (50-70%).

The coating electroplated by the method is proved to have good flat surface, uniform coating distribution and alloy distribution, the coating is single gamma-phase, the nickel has a content of 10% to 15%; the coating has superior corrosion resistance, red rust appears on the non-passivated Zn-Ni coating after 1500 hours in a neutral salt spray test; compared with general alkali electroplating solution, the coating has high current efficiency, reaching up to 80% to 90%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electroplating, and in particular relates to a method for electroplating a zinc-nickel alloy in an alkaline plating solution. Background technique [0002] Electroplated zinc-nickel alloys have many excellent properties, such as excellent corrosion resistance, thermal stability and low hydrogen embrittlement, etc. Compared with galvanized layer and cadmium-plated layer, it can improve the corrosion resistance by more than 3 times, its thermal stability, hardness and wear resistance are significantly improved, and its hydrogen embrittlement can be greatly reduced. The electroplated zinc-nickel alloy plating solutions currently used can be divided into acidic systems and alkaline systems. The acidic system adopts acidic plating solution. Yubo et al. pointed out in the article "Research on Electroplating Zinc-Nickel Alloy for Aeronautical High-Strength Steel and Low Hydrogen Embrittlement" that the acidic p...
