Embodiment 1

[0045] Embodiment 1 (comparative example)

[0046] Three cleaned copper-based samples (copper or copper / zinc) of 2 cm x 5 cm were placed in a nickel electroplating solution having the formulation described in Table 1.

[0047] Table 1

[0048] components

content

Nickel sulfate hexahydrate providing nickel ions

60g / L

Nickel chloride hexahydrate providing nickel ions

10g / L

boric acid

45g / L

Sodium saccharin

0.5g / L

Fatty Alcohol Ethoxylate Sulfate

2ml / L

[0049] The sample was connected to a rectifier and the counter electrode was a platinized titanium electrode. During the nickel plating process, keep the temperature of the nickel bath at 30 degrees Celsius. The current density is 1ASD. Electroplating was stopped when a nickel layer with a thickness of 2 μm was deposited on the surface of each copper sample. The samples were removed from the bath and rinsed with deionized water at room temperature.

Embodiment 2

[0058] Embodiment 2 (comparative example)

[0059] Three copper-based samples were prepared as described in Example 1, except that the nickel layer was plated with a gold strike instead of a silver strike. The composition of the gold strike plating solution is shown in Table 3.

[0062] The gold strike bath was kept at 40°C, and the current density used was 0.2ASD. Gold plating was stopped when the gold layer deposited on the nickel layer reached 0.1 μm.

[0063] Each sample was then electroplated with a 5 μm thick layer of silver using the silver cyanide bath described in Table 2. The parameters used for silver plating were the same as in Example 1.

[0064] The silver-plated samples were taken out from the silver-plating solution, rinsed with deionized wa...

Embodiment 3

[0067] Embodiment 3 (comparative example)

[0068] Three copper-based samples were prepared as described in Example 1, except that the nickel layer was plated with a palladium-nickel alloy strike instead of a silver strike. The formulation of the palladium-nickel alloy strike plating solution is shown in Table 4.

Abstract

A thin film of tin is plated directly on nickel coating a metal substrate followed by plating silver directly on the thin film of tin. The silver has good adhesion to the substrate even at high temperatures.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a high-temperature-resistant silver-coated copper-containing substrate. More specifically, the present invention relates to a high temperature resistant silver-coated copper-containing substrate and improved adhesion of the silver coating to the copper-containing substrate. Background technique [0002] Electroplating and electroless silver plating have been widely used, such as manufacturing electrical connectors, printed circuit boards, light-emitting diodes, and silver plating on plastic or decorative parts by taking advantage of silver's excellent deposition properties. When silver is plated on a copper or copper alloy substrate, a nickel undercoat is usually applied to the copper or copper alloy prior to silver plating. The role of nickel here is to act as a barrier to prevent the diffusion of copper into the silver, and also to provide better surface morphology. To attach the silver layer to the nickel layer, a thin sil...
