Problems solved by technology

[0005] At present, electroless nickel plating is the most researched metal coating on magnesium alloys. Generally, basic nickel carbonate or nickel acetate is used as the main salt. However, due to the high chemical activity of magnesium alloys, strong corrosion and replacement will occur after entering the electroless nickel plating solution. reaction, accompanied by a large amount of hydrogen evolution, resulting in poor bonding between the deposited nickel coating and the magnesium alloy substrate, local blistering or convex peeling, these defects cannot guarantee the high corrosion resistance of the coating, and it is difficult to achieve a satisfactory protective effect

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for electroplating a zinc-nickel coating on a magnesium alloy electroplate surface. The method employs a novel pickling activation and zinc immersion pre-treatment technology, wherein an acid solution is the complex formulation solution, the acid solution comprises 10-14g / L oxalic acid, 40-60g / L sodium fluoride, 5-25ml / L phosphoric acid, 2-25g / L ammonium bifluoride and 0.005-5g / L sodium dodecanesulphonate. The activation temperature is 25-35 DEG C, the activation time is 1-5 minutes; wherein the sulfate zinc-immersion technology comprises the following steps: immersing in a zinc-immersion solution comprising 30g of 20-40g / L of zinc sulfate, 5g of 3-7g / L sodium carbonate or potash, 7g of 2-4g / L potassium fluoride and 150g of 100-120g / L potassium pyrophosphate for zinc immersion, wherein the pH of the zinc-immersion solution is between 10.2 and 10.4, the zinc immersion temperature is from 30 DEG C to 70-80 DEG C, wherein the zinc immersion time is 10-15 minutes, and then obtaining the compact and uniform zinc-immersion layer as a base coat for subsequent electroplating. The combination capacity of the coating and a matrix can be increased.
