Abstract

The invention discloses color-change-preventing cyanide-free silver plating electroplating liquid and an electroplating method thereof. The electroplating liquid comprises, by mass volume concentration, 38-50 g/L of silver nitrate, 110-120 g/L of 2-sulpho-5,5-dimethyl hydantoin, 10-30 g/L of succinimide, 40-100 g/L of sodium pyrophosphate, 30-70 g/L of pyrophosphoric acid, 35-55 g/L of methionine, 0.5-2 g/L of polyethylene glycol, 4-10 g/L of benzotriazole, 1-8 g/L of nonylphenol polyoxyethylene laurel ether and 20-150 g/L of sodium sulfite. The pyrophosphoric acid is used for adjusting the pH to range from 3 to 5, and the temperature of the electroplating liquid ranges from 20 DEG to 55 DEG C. According to the color-change-preventing cyanide-free silver plating electroplating liquid and the electroplating method thereof, the combining force between a silver plating layer obtained through the electroplating method and a plating part base material is good, the leveling capability is good, the covering capability is excellent, the color is bright and not likely to become dark, an intermediate layer does not need to be pre-plated on the surface of the base material, the electroplating liquid can be used in a wide current range, and repeatability is good.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of alloy electroplating solutions, and in particular relates to an anti-discoloration silver-plating electroplating solution and an electroplating method thereof. Background technique [0002] Metallic silver has become one of the most widely used precious metals due to its excellent performance and low cost, especially its unique silver-white metallic luster, which is often used as a decorative layer in household high-end appliances, handicrafts and jewelry. Sulfur dioxide or hydrogen sulfide in the air tends to react slowly with the silver coating, causing the silver coating to change color and darken. Usually, it needs to undergo post-plating treatment, mainly dipping, chemical and electrochemical passivation, coating, etc. [0003] Because of the good stability of the plating solution, the cyanide silver plating process is currently mostly based on the cyanide system, which seriously endangers the human body and t...
