Problems solved by technology

[0008] In summary, the existing methods have the following defects: 1. Most of the formed nickel coatings are laminar, with large stress and poor bending resistance; 2. Many nickel plating solutions contain multiple heavy metal ions, 3. The plating temperature needs to be carried out at high temperature, that is, the temperature needs to be above 80°C; 4. The difference in the thickness of the nickel coating obtained by the existing method on the large and small copper surfaces can reach more than 25% at most , the nickel plating layer is prone to be too thick or too thin;

Abstract

The invention provides a low-temperature nickel plating solution. The low-temperature nickel plating solution comprises a nickel salt and a composition only containing a nonmetal element, the contentof the nickel salt (by Ni<2+>) in the low-temperature nickel plating solution is 4.0-8.0 g / L, and the composition only containing the nonmetal element includes 10-50 g / L of a reducing agent, 20-100 g / L of a complexing agent, 0.0001-0.5 g / L of a stabilizer and 0.001-1 g / L of a promoter. The nickel plating solution only contains ions of only one element nickel, so environmental protection and low energy consumption are achieved; and the low-temperature nickel plating solution is applied to a flexible circuit substrate at 80 DEG C or below to form a flexible nickel plating layer, and the flexiblenickel plating layer is cylindrical, has good flexural strength, and well improves diffusion coating, skip plating and color difference phenomena. The invention also provides a low-temperature nickelplating technology based on the low-temperature nickel plating solution, the flexible nickel plating layer produced by using the technology, and a flexible printed circuit board containing the flexible nickel plating layer.
