Abstract

The invention discloses a plating solution and a plating method of cyanide-free plating silver. 20-60g silver nitrate, 70-90g ammonium acetate, 70-110g nicotinic acid, 60-90g potassium carbonate, 40-70g potassium hydroxide, 0.2-1.2g o-benzoyl sulfimide sodium and 0.16-0.64g polyethylene glycol are contained in 1L of the plating solution with a pH value of 9-10. According to the plating solution and the plating method of the cyanide-free plating silver, the plating solution does not contain cyanide ions; the pollution of wastewater treatment is reduced; the injury to a human body due to precious metal plating is reduced; a formula of the plating solution is simple, and easy to control; compared with other cyanide-free plating, the current density is higher; and the deposition efficiency of a silver coating can be improved. With the adoption of pulse plating, a coating that is small in coating stress and good in compactness and brightness, and combines with a matrix well can be obtained.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of silver electroplating, and belongs to an electroplating solution and an electroplating method for cyanide-free silver electroplating. Background technique [0002] With the development of industry, electroplating silver is widely used in the contact part of appearance decoration, electronic devices, instrumentation, transformer switches, high and low voltage switches and other industries. [0003] The cyanide-free silver electroplating solution uses cyanide-free ions as the silver ion complexing agent to deposit the silver plating layer through electrochemical reaction. However, cyanide-free silver plating has not been widely used in electroplating banking due to the problems of large stress, poor bonding, and poor stability of the plating solution. Summary of the invention [0004] The problem solved by the present invention is to provide an electroplating solution and electroplating method for cyanide-free sil...
