Problems solved by technology

[0004] (1) Magnesium alloy cyanide pre-copper plating process uses highly toxic cyanide, which is harmful to human health and pollutes the environment
Dow process, Norskhydro process and WCM process are unstable, the operating window is narrow, and there are many defects in the plated parts after plating
[0005] (2) The direct electroless nickel plating process of magnesium alloy uses a pretreatment solution containing hexavalent chromium Cr(VI) and hydrofluoric acid, which is harmful to human health and pollutes the environment; the electroless nickel plating solution is a thermodynamically unstable system, and the plating The service life of the liquid is short and the production cost is high
This makes the technological process of magnesium alloy electroplating treatment cumbersome and increases the production cost
Therefore, the electro-galvanized layer is generally used as the final coating on the magnesium alloy, and is no longer electroplated for other combined coatings, and its anti-corrosion effect is limited.
[0007] (4) Electroplating copper directly in pyrophosphate solution after zinc immersion in magnesium alloy is prone to poor bonding between copper coating and magnesium alloy substrate
Because the complexing ability of pyrophosphate ions to copper ions is poor, the potential difference between the magnesium alloy substrate and metallic copper is very large. When copper is electroplated in pyrophosphate solution, the substrate magnesium and copper ions undergo a violent substitution reaction, which makes the copper coating Decreased binding to the substrate
The compactness of the pre-plating layer is not enough, and the plated parts are corroded during acid copper plating
[0008] (5) The magnesium alloy metal coating coating technology reported in the literature is only a laboratory result, and there is no electroplating industrial application of magnesium alloy products; most of the research is concentrated on the pretreatment of magnesium alloy electroplating, and the completeness of magnesium alloy combined electroplating technology has not been proposed.
