[0053] Corrosion resistance test: The electroplated plates of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-5 were placed in a sodium chloride salt solution at a temperature of 45°C, the pH was adjusted to 6.5, and the precipitation rate of the salt mist was adjusted to 2 ml / 80 cm ² .h, and then placed for 2.5h to detect the corrosion degree of the electroplated plate.

[0054] Table 1: By comparing Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-5, it can be seen that the electrolyte additive provided by the present disclosure can not only act as a complexing agent, but also form a coordination polymer with chromium ions and nickel ions, which is conducive to the precipitation of heavy metal ions, so that the heavy metal ions will not form a piled hydroxy bridge compound; and, since the electrolyte additive contains amino groups and amide groups in its molecular structure, it can further help precipitate heavy metal ions. In addition, by comparing Examples 1-5, it can be seen that in similar molecular structures, the position and number of amino groups will also affect the effect of the electrolyte additive. When the amino group is in the ortho position (Example 3), its performance as an electrolyte additive will be worse, because the ortho amino group will combine with the carboxylic acid of the electrolyte additive, which is not conducive to its complexation with heavy metal ions; while in Example 5, the amino group is not in the ortho position and the number of amino groups is larger, so the performance is the best.
