Problems solved by technology

[0005] In general, increasing the hardness of the coating is effective in improving the wear resistance. There have been attempts to increase the hardness of the coating by adding a hardener such as Sb to silver, but the coating became brittle and the wear resistance deteriorated.

Embodiment 1

[0070] Phosphor bronze (C5210, 25mm×20mm×thickness 0.2mm) is sequentially plated to form a 0.05μm thick silver strike layer and a 0.4μm thick silver layer obtained by plating with a high-cyanide silver bath. The plated substrate was used as the test material.

[0071] Under the conditions of Example 1 in Table 1, the above-mentioned plated substrate was heat-treated using a hot plate in the air. The heat treatment temperature is a temperature obtained by measuring the temperature of the plated substrate placed on the heating plate with a thermocouple.

Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 3

[0073] Phosphor bronze (C5210, 25mm×20mm×thickness 0.2mm) is sequentially plated to form a 3μm thick copper plating layer obtained by copper cyanide bath plating, a 0.05μm thick silver strike plating layer, and a 0.4μm thick The silver-plated layer obtained by high-cyanide silver bath plating is used as the test material.

[0074] Under the conditions of Example 2 and Example 3 in Table 1, the above-mentioned plated substrate was heat-treated using a hot plate in the air.

Embodiment 4

[0076] Phosphor bronze (C5210, 25mm×20mm×thickness 0.2mm) is sequentially plated to form a 3μm-thick nickel plating layer obtained by sulfamic acid bath plating, a 0.05μm-thick silver strike plating layer, and a 0.4μm-thick The silver-plated layer obtained by high-cyanide silver bath plating is used as the test material.

[0077] Under the conditions of Example 4 in Table 1, the above-mentioned plated substrate was heat-treated using a hot plate in the air.

Abstract

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a silver coating material having exceptional wear resistance so that, even when the silver coating material is used as a movable contact and / or a fixed contact of a switch that is used for a long period of time under a condition in which switching is repeatedly performed, a silver or silver alloy layer on a surface does not scrape off, and the contact resistance thereof does not increase. A silver coating material having a layer comprising at least silver or a silver alloy as the outermost layer on an electroconductive substrate, wherein the amount of the coating scraped off in a wear resistance test is less than 40 mg and the initial contact resistance and the contact resistance after performing a sliding wear test under a specific condition are less than 10 m omega. In addition, a silver coating layer in which the aforementioned layer comprising silver or a silver alloy is formed by plating and heat-treated for 1-299 seconds at 200-500 DEG C.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a silver coating material and a method for producing the same, and more particularly to a silver coating material suitable as a connector, a switch, a terminal, and a contact part of an electronic component. Background technique [0002] Connectors and switches, which are connecting parts for electronic equipment, are often used in which brass or phosphor bronze is coated with a base plating of copper or nickel, and a silver plating layer is further applied to the base plating. Since silver is a good conductor of electricity and heat, silver is used as a plating for connectors, switches, or lead frames, etc. as described above. [0003] In recent years, it is known that switches used in mobile phones and remote controllers have a large number of repeated switching operations. By repeating many switching operations in a short period of time, the silver plating layer is reduced and the contact resistance increases. [00...
