Problems solved by technology

In the acidic and neutral gold plating process, gold potassium citrate is used to replace potassium aurous cyanide and other citrate gold salts, and at the same time, it solves the problem that the product coverage of gold citrate salt in the gold plating process is too wide. Adding gold potassium citrate to the plating solution supplements gold consumption, and at the same time supplements the consumption of citrate and stabilizes the pH value of the plating solution, thereby improving the stability of the plating solution components, improving the bonding force of the plating layer and the quality of gold plating

Abstract

The invention relates to gold potassium citrate for gold plating and a preparation method thereof. The gold potassium citrate is used to substitute for gold potassium cyanide in acidic and neutral gold plating technology. The problem that the product coverage area is too wide when gold citrate is used in the gold plating technology is solved. The technical scheme is that the gold potassium citrate is the mixed crystal of gold potassium cyanide and citric acid potassium salt and the chemical composition of the gold potassium citrate is KAu (CN)2 (K3C6H5O7. k1C6H8O7) k2, wherein KAu (CN)2 is gold potassium cyanide, K3C6H5O7.k1C6H8O7 is citric acid potassium salt which is mixed by potassium citrate K3C6H5O7 and citric acid C6H8O7, k1 is the molar ratio of potassium citrate to citric acid, is more than or equal to zero and is less than or equal to three, and k2 is the molar ratio of citric acid potassium salt to gold potassium cyanide, is more than or equal to one point three and is less than five. The method is mainly suitable for the acidic and neutral gold plating technology.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a gold salt used for gold plating, in particular to a gold potassium citrate used for electro-gold plating or chemical gold-plating and a preparation method thereof, which is mainly applicable to acid and neutral gold-plating processes. Background technique [0002] Currently, gold plating is widely used in industry. The gold plating process can be roughly divided into three categories: alkaline cyanide gold plating, sulfite gold plating, acid and neutral gold plating. The most widely used gold plating process is acid and neutral gold plating. Potassium aurous cyanide (chemical formula KAu(CN) is usually used in acidic and neutral gold plating processes 2 , also known as potassium dicyanoaurate, commonly known as gold salt) as the main salt (see "Surface Treatment Technology Encyclopedia" page 290, edited by Liu Yubo, first edition in May 1996). Existing gold plating process quantitatively adds potassium aurous cyanide accord...
