Problems solved by technology

However, the current surface treatment of magnesium or its alloys is mostly limited to the spraying technology on the surface of the product, such as plasma spraying, painting, plastic spraying, ceramic spraying, etc.
The disadvantage of this type of surface treatment is that if the product is used as a functional part, it loses the original properties of the metal, such as the unique properties of electricity, heat conduction, welding, and magnetism; The color is dull, which not only hides the excellent feel and texture of magnesium or its alloys, but also cannot match the color of the current parts made of ABS plastic, zinc alloy, copper, iron, etc. after water electroplating

Abstract

The chemical plating process for magnesium-base material includes the following steps: 1. alkaline dewaxing the magnesium-base material; 2. activating with acid solution containing fluoric salt and no chlorine ion and in pH 2.0-5.0, and treating with alkaline neutralizing solution containing alkali metal salt of pyrophosphoric acid, fluoric salt and hypophosphite in pH 8.0-12.0; 3. chemical nickel pre-plating with the plating solution containing nickel salt in 10-80 g/L concentration, fluoric salt in 5-50 g/L concentration, pyrophosphite in 20-100 g/L concentration and no chlorine ion and in pH 5.0-9.0; 4. chemical nickel plating with the plating solution containing nickel salt in 10-100 g/L concentration, pyrophosphite in 10-80 g/L concentration and no chlorine ion and in pH 3-7; and 5. optional heat treatment. The said process can form homogeneous compact nickel layer with sufficient binding force on magnesium-base material.

Description

field of invention [0001] The invention relates to an electroless plating process for magnesium or its alloys. Specifically, the present invention relates to covering the substrate of chemically active magnesium or its alloys with sufficient binding force, uniform and dense underlying nickel through an electroless plating process. Background technique [0002] Magnesium is a light metal and has a large reserve in the earth's metals. At present, magnesium is becoming the third largest metal engineering material after steel and aluminum. It has excellent physical properties in terms of strength, toughness, light weight, electrical conductivity, etc. However, due to the active chemical properties of magnesium, it is easy to be corroded, so its use has been limited for a long time. In recent years, with the breakthrough of magnesium smelting and molding technology, the application of magnesium has developed greatly. Magnesium and its alloys, which have good damping and shock...
