Preparation method for crystallizer copper plate coated with nickel-cobalt-iron alloy layer

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method for a crystallizer copper plate coated with a nickel-cobalt-iron alloy layer. The crystallizer copper plate is composed of, by mass, 1%-2% of Ni, 0.05%-0.2% of Be, 0.5%-0.7% of Al, 3.0%-5.0% of Zr, 1.2%-1.4% of Mn, 1%-3% of Mg, 0.8%-1.2% of Cr, 14.0%-16.0% of Zn and the balance Cu. The preparation method comprises the steps that a crystallizer is prepared from copper alloy comprising the components, and a coated layer is electroplated on the surface of the crystallizer. A plating solution adopted by electroplating is composed of 220-240 g / l of nickel sulfate, 17-19 g / l of nickel chloride, 4.5-5.5 g / l of cobalt sulfate, 7.5-8.5 g / l of ferric sulfate, 23-27 g / l of boric acid, 5-7 g / l of potassium sulfate, 30-40 g / l of sodium chloride, 0.2-0.4 g / l of lauryl sodium sulfate and 20-22 ml / L of an additive, and the additive is a solution prepared by adding 10-12 g of sodium gluconate, 33-37 g of ascorbic acid and 22-26 g of dextrin into one liter of water. The conditions for an electroplating process are as follows, the PH value is 2.3-3.5, the electric current density is 3.8-4.2 A / dm<2>, the temperature is 44 DEG C-46 DEG C, and electroplating is conducted till the plating layer thickness reaches 1.3-1.5 mm.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electroplating, in particular to a method for preparing a crystallizer copper plate coated with a nickel-cobalt-iron alloy layer. Background technique [0002] The mold copper plate is an important part of the continuous casting machine. The molten steel flows through the mold of the continuous casting machine and is cooled to form a billet. In the continuous casting and drawing production process, the surface of the billet and the copper plate are in contact with each other to cause friction, and the surface of the copper plate is worn. Usually, a layer of material with good thermal conductivity and wear resistance is plated on the surface by functional electroplating technology to achieve lightening of the surface of the copper plate. The purpose of reducing wear, increasing the number of copper plate repairs, and prolonging the service life of the copper plate. With the development of continuous casti...

Problems solved by technology

With the development of continuous casting technology, copper plate electroplating technology develops rapidly: the coating material develops from simple metal to alloy material, from chromium to nickel to nickel-iron, nickel-cobalt alloy, and the coating form develops from composite layer to single layer. This functional electroplating Different from ordinary electroplating, the coating is relatively thick, usually with a thickness of 0.2mm-2mm, which inevitably leads to a large accumulation of internal stress in the coating. In the continuous casting production of copper plates, the coating working surface is in the environment of high-temperature molten steel and cooling water. Frequent alternation can induce cracks in the coating, and sometimes the coating will fall off, which affects the amount of steel passed through the copper plate and affects the production efficiency of the continuous casting machine

Moreover, there are many electroplating processes and the production cycle is long
