Embodiment 1

[0016] The sample is an extruded AZ31D magnesium alloy, and the specific operation steps are as follows:

[0017] 1. Mechanical decontamination: Grinding with sandblasting or sandpaper to remove foreign matter such as burrs, firm oxides, lubricants for extrusion, mold release agents, casting sand, cutting oil, etc., to reduce surface roughness; washing with water;

[0018] 2. Alkaline washing and degreasing: wash with a mixed solution of 10g / l sodium hydroxide, 15g / l sodium phosphate, and 15g / l sodium carbonate to remove general dirt, sintered lubricant, cutting contacts, etc.; the temperature is controlled at 90 ° C, The time is 3min; wash with water;

[0019] 3. Pickling: immerse with concentrated hydrofluoric acid (11%) to remove scales, corrosion products, lubricants attached to sintering, lubricants brought in and other dirt that have not been removed during degreasing; the temperature is 20°C , the time is 1min; water washing, vacuum drying;

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for treating magnesium alloy surface, wherein cleaned magnesium alloy being taken as catelectrode and commercial-purity aluminum as anode are placed in electroplating solution, continuous current is adopted to electroplate, electroplating solution is mixture of AlCl3 and inorganic salt or organic salt, and temperature and current density are fixed according to different salts. The invention makes use of protection and decoration of aluminum to increase applicability of magnesium alloy, cut cost of surface treatment largely and increase its barrier property.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for surface treatment of magnesium alloys, in particular to a method for electroplating aluminum on the surface of magnesium alloys. Background technique [0002] Magnesium alloy is known as the most ideal electronic product in the 21st century because of its excellent comprehensive properties such as light weight, high rigidity, impact resistance, good electromagnetic compatibility, strong heat dissipation capacity, convenient processing, easy recycling and compliance with environmental protection requirements. The shell material can be widely used in the field of transportation. [0003] Although magnesium alloy has many excellent properties, it is easy to be corroded due to its active chemical properties. The basic carbonate film formed by its natural passivation in the air is thin and loose, and its protection is poor. Therefore, magnesium alloy must be used as a structural material. Take reliable surface protecti...
