Abstract

The invention discloses a method for recovering nickel in a chemical nickel-plating ageing liquid, and the method comprises the following steps: (1) adding 1100-1300 parts by weight of the chemical nickel-plating ageing liquid into an electrolytic cell, and regulating the pH value of the ageing liquid to 8-10 by use of solid sodium hydroxide; (2) dissolving 0.01-0.03 part by weight of polyethylene glycol, 0.01-0.02 part by weight of 2-mercapto benzimidazole, 0.03-0.06 part by weight of thiourea, 0.005-0.03 part by weight of hide glue and 0.3-0.5 part by weight of sodium hypophosphite into 40-70 parts by weight of water, adding the mixture into the electrolytic cell, and adding 1-3 parts by weight of 5mol / L hydrochloric acid solution; (3) at normal temperature, on the basis of taking a stainless steel plate as a cathode and a reticular plate plated with iridium oxide titanium alloy as an anode, reacting for 8-10 hours at constant reaction current of 0.6-1.0A, thus obtaining a recoveredmetal nickel on the cathode. The method has the advantages of high recovery rate, simple equipment, low cost and the like, works at normal temperature and is easy to realize.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a metal recovery method in an electroless plating solution, in particular to a method for recovering nickel in an electroless nickel plating aging solution. Background technique [0002] Electroless nickel plating is the fastest-growing type of electroless plating. It has been widely studied and applied for its outstanding advantages in uniformity, corrosion resistance, hardness, and weldability. The plating solution generally uses nickel sulfate, nickel acetate, nickel sulfamate as the main salt, sodium borohydride, borane, etc. as the reducing agent, and various additives are added. , Alkaline solution for operation. However, after long-term use of the plating solution, the performance will drop sharply, such as pinholes in the plating layer, turbidity and aging of the plating solution, etc. At this time, the aging plating solution also contains a large amount of nickel, and most of the nickel exists in a complex state, mak...
