Abstract

The invention relates to a cyanide-free gold electroplating solution and an electroplating process using the same. The solution contains 180-200 g / L of a main coordination agent, 5-8 g / L of an auxiliary coordination agent, 20-30 g / L of potassium bicarbonate, 0.5-0.8 g / L of potassium gold chloride and 0.5-5 mL / L of a combined additive. The cyanide-free gold electroplating system solution is good in stability, dispersing capacity and covering capacity and high in current efficiency, a plating layer is flat and compact in crystallization and golden yellow and bright in appearance, the applied current density range is wide, the temperature requirement range is wide, the system can meet the requirement of long-term thick gold electroplating, and problems that the plating layer turns red, floating dust exists and the like are solved with the increase of the thickness of the plating layer during electroplating.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electroplating gold, and relates to a cyanide-free electroplating gold plating solution and an electroplating process using the same. Background technique [0002] Gold is widely used in electronics, instruments, instruments, aviation, aerospace and other industrial fields because of its good electrical conductivity, good weldability, low contact resistance, high temperature resistance, and wear resistance. Gold also has high chemical stability, good corrosion resistance and discoloration resistance, so decorative gold plating is widely used in various aspects, such as jewelry, handicrafts, medals, commemorative coins, high-end tableware, etc. [0003] Traditional gold electroplating uses cyanide gold plating solution, but as we all know, CN- is highly toxic and will cause great harm to electroplating workers and the environment. Therefore, in order to implement sustainable development, realize environme...
