Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of steel strip processing, in particular to a corrosion-resistant nickel-plated steel strip and a processing technology thereof. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the development of new energy technology, electric vehicles have gradually become popular, and batteries as the power source of electric vehicles have also received more and more attention. The battery shell is an important component to protect the internal structure of the battery. Therefore, the quality of the battery shell during use also seriously affects the use status of the battery.

[0003] At present, battery shells are often made of steel strips. However, stainless steel strips with excellent corrosion resistance are limited by their own properties and are not suitable for stamping processes. Therefore, the industry currently uses low-carbon steel as raw material and prepares battery shells after its surface is protected from corrosion. Although this process can greatly improve the processing of the shell, the hardness of low-carbon steel is relatively low, and during the processing, the coating will fall off and peel off with the stamping, affecting the corrosion resistance of the battery shell. Therefore, it is necessary to improve this type of defect. Summary of the invention

[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a corrosion-resistant nickel-plated steel strip and a processing technology thereof to solve the problems raised in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a processing technology for corrosion-resistant nickel-plated steel strip, comprising the following steps:

[0006] S1. The low-carbon alloy steel is hot-rolled and cold-rolled in a four-roll mill, and then polished with 600-800 mesh sandpaper, and then electrolytically decontaminated and pickled, and then the surface is rinsed with deionized water and anhydrous ethanol, and hot-air dried to obtain a steel strip blank;

[0007] S2. The steel strip blank is placed in a vacuum environment, acetylene gas is introduced therein, the temperature is raised for carburization, and the steel strip blank is cooled to room temperature with the furnace to obtain a pretreated steel strip blank;

[0008] S3. Under argon atmosphere protection, magnetron sputtering is performed on the surface of the pretreated steel strip blank, the magnetron sputtering target is copper, and the sputtering deposition rate is 0.05-0.1nm / s. After the sputtering is completed, a copper layer is formed on the surface of the pretreated steel strip blank, and the pretreated steel strip blank is subjected to nickel plating in a plating solution to form a nickel plating layer on the surface of the pretreated steel strip blank;

[0009] S4. The surface of the pretreated steel strip after nickel plating is cleaned with ultrapure water and anhydrous ethanol, dried, and then heated to 350-400°C in a nitrogen atmosphere, tempered for 1-1.5 hours, and then cooled to room temperature to obtain a corrosion-resistant nickel-plated steel strip.

[0010] Furthermore, in step S1, during electrolytic decontamination, the low carbon steel is energized and placed in an alkaline solution for electrolysis for 2-3 minutes; the voltage intensity is 7-8V, and the electrolytic alkaline solution contains 20-40g / L of sodium hydroxide, 8-12g / L of sodium silicate, 20-40g / L of sodium phosphate, and 15-30g / L of sodium carbonate.

[0011] Furthermore, in step S1, during pickling, the acid solution used is a nitric acid solution with a concentration of 8-10wt%.

[0012] Furthermore, in step S2, when carburizing by heating, the acetylene pressure is controlled to be 0.01-0.03MPa, and the temperature is raised to 350-400°C and kept for 1-1.5h, and then the temperature is raised to 900-1000°C again, and after keeping for 0.5h, the acetylene pressure is adjusted to 0.03-0.05MPa, and kept for 0.5-1h, and the acetylene pressure is adjusted to 0.05-0.1MPa again, and after keeping for 1-1.5h, the carburizing by heating is completed and the heating is stopped.

[0013] Furthermore, in step S3, the copper layer has a thickness of 80-200 nm; and the nickel-plated layer has a thickness of 2.5-3.5 μm.

[0014] Furthermore, in step S3, the nickel solution used for nickel plating contains 100-120 g / L of nickel sulfate, 30-35 g / L of boric acid, 15-20 g / L of nickel chloride, 35-45 g / L of phosphoric acid, and 0.1-0.15 g / L of sodium dodecyl sulfate.

[0015] Furthermore, in step S2, during nickel plating, the nickel solution temperature is 45-50°C and the current density is 3-12A / dm 2 .

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] The present invention uses low carbon steel as raw material, and utilizes the characteristics of low carbon steel itself that it is soft and easy to process, thereby facilitating the subsequent processing process; at the same time, on this basis, the present invention performs carburizing treatment on the low carbon steel. Using acetylene gas of different concentrations, the surface of the low carbon steel is carburized in a high temperature environment. In a low concentration acetylene gas environment, the surface of the steel strip will be initially carburized to form an iron carbide strengthening layer. Then, in a subsequent high concentration acetylene gas environment, these iron carbide strengthening layers will be further strengthened in the acetylene gas environment and organize the acetylene gas to further carburize the inside of the steel strip, thereby eventually forming a stepped carburized strengthening layer with a high degree of carburization on the outer layer and a low degree of carburization on the inner layer, thereby effectively avoiding the uneven stress phenomenon on the surface and inside of the steel strip caused by carburizing;

[0018] Then, on this basis, the present invention also performs magnetron sputtering of a copper layer on the surface. The introduction of the copper layer can effectively improve the bonding strength between the steel layer and the nickel layer. In addition, during the nickel plating process, due to the presence of hydrogen ions in the electroplating solution, hydrogen ions will be formed on the metal surface of the steel layer during electroplating, thereby causing hydrogen embrittlement. The introduction of the copper layer can effectively hinder the intrusion of hydrogen, reduce the risk of hydrogen embrittlement, and improve the stability of the coating.

[0019] Afterwards, the present invention also introduces phosphorus into the nickel solution during nickel plating, and then phosphorus can be introduced into the surface of the steel strip during electroplating of nickel. The introduction of phosphorus can effectively improve the hardness of the coating and enhance its wear resistance; and on this basis, the present invention further adds a temperature rising and tempering procedure after preparing the nickel plating layer. At high temperature, the phosphorus element in the nickel plating layer will further diffuse and combine with copper to form a diffusion layer, and improve the corrosion resistance of the copper layer, thereby providing further protection behind the nickel plating layer.
