Abstract

The invention relates to the field of electroplating, in particular to a trivalent chromium electroplating solution capable of being used for electroplating thick chromium through trivalent chromium and an electroplating method. The trivalent chromium electroplating solution and the electroplating method effectively solve the problem that trivalent chromium coatings cannot be thickened. The trivalent chromium electroplating solution is composed of 0.4-1.2 mol/L of chromic chloride, 0.5-3.0 mol/L of coordination agents, 0.1-0.8 mol/L of buffering agents, 0.5-2.0 mol/L of conducting salt, 3-35 g/L of organic additives and the balance water. By adopting a chloride plating solution system and a high-density graphite anode, trivalent chromium coatings with the smooth surface, compact crystals and the thickness higher than 60 micrometers can be prepared at the current density of 25-45 A/dm<2>, the binding force between the trivalent chromium coatings and base bodies is high, and the hardness of the coatings can be higher than HV800.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of electroplating, in particular to an electroplating solution and an electroplating method capable of electroplating thick chromium with trivalent chromium. Background technique [0002] The electroplated chromium layer has high hardness, good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, and has excellent decorative properties. It is often used as a decorative coating for electronic and electrical equipment, hardware tools, etc., and as a functional coating for pistons, molds, shafts, etc. Coatings are widely used. At present, most of the electroplated chromium layers in the world use the hexavalent chromium electroplating process, which is simple, easy to maintain, and has good coating performance. However, hexavalent chromium ions are very toxic. Excessive intake can cause skin ulcers, damage liver and kidney functions, and have a strong carcinogenic effect. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has identified he...
