AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Ceramic electronic components are easily corroded in traditional nickel plating solutions, especially substrates containing zinc oxide, which are more susceptible to corrosion and affect product quality.

Method used

An electroplating solution containing a nickel ion supply source, a specific alkyl sulfonic acid or hydroxyalkyl sulfonic acid or its salt, and sodium hydroxide is used. By adjusting the pH value to 4.5–5.5, the corrosion of ceramic electronic components is suppressed.

Benefits of technology

It effectively inhibits the corrosion of ceramic electronic components and improves the quality of products manufactured by electroplating nickel, especially those containing zinc, forming a good plating film.
