Abstract

The invention provides a nickel plating method for stainless steel strips. The method includes the steps of 1, degreasing; 2, pre-etching; 3, alkali washing; 4, etching; 5, nickel flash plating; and 6, nickel plating. In the step 1, the strips are placed into degreasing solutions for 2-5 minutes to remove greasy dirt on the surfaces of the strips; in the step 2, the degreased strips are pre-etched to remove Cr2O3 passivation films on the surfaces of the strips; in the step 3, alkali washing is carried out on the strips to neutralize pre-etching solutions; in the step 4, the strips are etched so that the surfaces of the strips can have certain microscopic roughness; in the step 5, nickel flash plating is carried out on the obtained strips for 1.5-2.5 minutes so that thin nickel layers can be deposited on the strips in a short time; and in the step 6, nickel plating is carried out on the strips so that the strips can have good wettability in the brazing process. According to the method, the nickel layers with the attractive appearances, the good binding force and the uniform thickness are deposited on the surfaces of the strips, and therefore the flowability of brazing filler metal is better in the subsequent brazing process of the strips and the brazing effect is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of nuclear power fuel elements and their manufacture, in particular to a nickel plating method for stainless steel strips. Background technique [0002] Ribbons are an important part of nuclear fuel element grids, such as figure 1 As shown, the grid is one of the main components constituting the skeleton of the fuel assembly. Its main function is to clamp the fuel rods, so that the fuel rods are arranged in the most suitable position to meet the requirements of optimal nuclear energy, heat, machinery and hydraulic power in the core. The grid is made of strips of stainless steel (mainly nickel- and chromium-containing stainless steel such as Inconel 718) of different shapes after assembly and welding. Before welding, a uniform and complete nickel layer needs to be plated on the surface of the strips. The role is to meet the brazing requirements of the grid, so that the solder has better fluidity during the ...
