[0036] Figure 1 It is a schematic flow diagram of a method for continuously producing an electroplated nickel composite coating steel strip at high speed provided for the embodiments of the present application.
[0037] AsFigure 1 As shown in Figure 1 , an embodiment of the present application provides a method for continuously producing electroplated nickel composite coating steel strips at high speed. The method includes:
[0038] S1. Sequentially subject the steel strip to chemical alkali cleaning, first brushing, electrolytic alkali cleaning, second brushing, first rinsing, chemical acid pickling, and second rinsing;
[0039] In the production process of electroplated nickel steel strips, the pretreatment of the steel strip is a crucial step, which directly affects the quality and performance of the subsequent electroplated layer. The steel strip pretreatment process provided by the embodiment of the present application includes steps such as chemical alkali cleaning, brushing, electrolytic alkali cleaning, rinsing, and chemical acid pickling. Appropriate cleaning agents and conditions are used in each step to ensure that the surface of the steel strip is thoroughly cleaned and prepared, providing a high-quality substrate for the subsequent electroplating process.
[0040] In some embodiments, the cleaning solutions for both the chemical alkali cleaning and the electrolytic alkali cleaning include a first NaOH solution. The concentration of the first NaOH solution is 40 g / L to 50 g / L, the temperature of the first NaOH solution is 70°C to 80°C, and the current density of the electrolytic alkali cleaning is 4 A / dm 2 ~20 A / dm 2 .
[0041] Chemical alkali cleaning is the first step in the pretreatment of the steel strip, aiming to remove grease, dirt, and other impurities on the surface of the steel strip. In the embodiment of the present application, NaOH solution is used as the cleaning agent for chemical alkali cleaning. The concentration of the NaOH solution is 40 g / L to 50 g / L, and this concentration range can ensure effective cleaning effect while avoiding excessive corrosion of the steel strip substrate. The temperature of the NaOH solution is controlled at 70°C to 80°C, and this temperature range can accelerate chemical reactions and improve cleaning efficiency.
[0042] In some embodiments, the cleaning solutions for both the first brushing and the second brushing include a second NaOH solution. The mass concentration of the second NaOH solution is 30 g / L to 40 g / L, and the temperature of the second NaOH solution is 70°C to 80°C.
[0043] After chemical alkali cleaning, some cleaning agents and other impurities will remain on the surface of the steel strip. In order to thoroughly remove these residues, the first brushing is required. After electrolytic alkali cleaning, some impurities generated by electrolysis may remain on the surface of the steel strip again. Therefore, the second brushing is required. The conditions for the second brushing are the same as those for the first brushing, that is, using NaOH solution with a concentration of 30 g / L to 40 g / L and maintaining the temperature at 70°C to 80°C.
[0044] Electrolytic alkali cleaning is carried out in an electrolytic cell. By applying a certain voltage and current, the cleaning process of the steel strip surface is accelerated using electrolysis. Compared with chemical alkali cleaning, electrolytic alkali cleaning has higher cleaning efficiency and better cleaning quality. In the embodiments of this application, the current density of electrolytic alkali cleaning is 4 A / dm 2 ~20 A / dm 2 , this current density range can ensure uniform cleaning of the steel strip surface, while avoiding excessive hydrogen generation during electrolysis from damaging the steel strip.
[0045] In some embodiments, the cleaning solution for chemical pickling includes an aqueous sulfuric acid solution, the mass concentration of the aqueous sulfuric acid solution is 50 g / L to 90 g / L, and the temperature of the aqueous sulfuric acid solution is 40°C to 50°C.
[0046] Chemical pickling aims to remove the oxide layer and other impurities on the steel strip surface, providing a clean substrate for the electroplating process. In the embodiments of this application, chemical pickling uses an aqueous sulfuric acid solution with a concentration of 50 g / L to 90 g / L and the temperature is controlled at 40°C to 50°C. This sulfuric acid concentration and temperature can ensure effective pickling effect while avoiding excessive corrosion of the steel strip substrate.
[0047] S2. Perform pre-nickel plating treatment on the steel strip after the second rinsing in the first nickel plating solution;
[0048] Pre-nickel plating treatment plays a crucial role in ensuring the quality and performance of the final coating. The purpose of this step is to form a uniform and dense nickel bottom layer on the steel strip surface to enhance the adhesion between the steel strip surface and the subsequent electroplated layer, and improve the corrosion resistance and wear resistance of the overall coating. Through pre-nickel plating treatment, a good foundation can be provided for the subsequent electroplating process, thereby obtaining high-quality electroplated products. In the embodiments of this application, 1 plating bath is used for pre-nickel plating treatment.
[0049] In some embodiments, calculated by mass concentration g / L or volume concentration ml / L, the components of the first nickel plating solution include: nickel sulfate hexahydrate: 260 g / L to 280 g / L, nickel chloride hexahydrate: 35 g / L to 40 g / L, boric acid: 35 g / L to 45 g / L, wetting agent: 1 ml / L to 2 ml / L; wherein, the wetting agent is composed of sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate and sodium dodecyl sulfate.
[0050] In the embodiments of this application, nickel sulfate hexahydrate serves as the main salt to provide nickel ions for deposition; nickel chloride hexahydrate serves as an auxiliary salt to help control the conductivity and deposition rate of the plating solution; boric acid serves as a buffer for the electroplating solution, which can stabilize the pH value of the electroplating solution and prevent drastic fluctuations in the pH value during electroplating, thereby ensuring the stability of the coating quality. In addition, a wetting agent is added to improve the wetting performance of the plating solution, which helps with uniform deposition.
[0051] In some embodiments, the current density of the pre-nickel plating treatment is 2 A / dm 2 ~15 A / dm 2 .
[0052] The current density of the pre-nickel plating treatment affects the coating quality and deposition rate.
[0053] S3. Thirdly rinse the steel strip after the pre-nickel plating treatment;
[0054] In some embodiments, the washing liquids for the first rinse, the second rinse and the third rinse all include demineralized water.
[0055] S4. Perform semi-bright nickel plating treatment on the steel strip after the third rinse in a second nickel plating solution;
[0056] S5. Perform bright nickel plating treatment on the steel strip after the semi-bright nickel plating treatment in a third nickel plating solution to obtain a steel strip with an electroplated nickel composite coating.
[0057] After the pre-nickel plating treatment is completed, semi-bright nickel plating and bright nickel plating treatments need to be carried out to form nickel composite coatings with different gloss degrees and properties. These two steps are crucial in the electroplating process because they directly affect the appearance and durability of the final product. In the embodiments of the present application, 4 plating tanks are used for the semi-bright nickel plating treatment and 2 plating tanks are used for the bright nickel plating treatment.
[0058] In some embodiments, in terms of mass concentration g / L or volume concentration ml / L, the components of the second nickel plating solution include: nickel sulfate hexahydrate: 290 g / L~300 g / L, nickel chloride hexahydrate: 40 g / L~50 g / L, boric acid: 45 g / L~50 g / L, additive: 5 ml / L~10 ml / L, pyridinium propane sulfonate: 0.2 ml / L~5 ml / L, wetting agent: 1 ml / L~2 ml / L; wherein, the additive is composed of propynediol derivatives and alkynylamine compounds, and the wetting agent is composed of sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate and sodium dodecyl sulfate.
[0059] In some embodiments, in terms of mass concentration g / L or volume concentration ml / L, the components of the third nickel plating solution include: nickel sulfate hexahydrate: 290 g / L~300 g / L, nickel chloride hexahydrate: 40 g / L~50 g / L, boric acid: 45 g / L~50 g / L, additive: 15 ml / L~25 ml / L, pyridinium propane sulfonate: 2 ml / L~5 ml / L, wetting agent: 1 ml / L~3 ml / L; wherein, the additive is composed of propynediol derivatives and alkynylamine compounds, and the wetting agent is composed of sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate and sodium dodecyl sulfate.
[0060] The solution compositions for plating semi-bright nickel and bright nickel are different. The semi-bright nickel plating solution mainly contains basic components such as nickel sulfate hexahydrate, nickel chloride hexahydrate, boric acid, wetting agent, etc., as well as a small amount of additives and pyridinium propane sulfonate. In the embodiments of the present application, the additive is composed of propynediol derivatives and alkynylamine compounds, and these compounds can refine the grain size of the coating, improve the smoothness and gloss of the coating, and at the same time enhance the hardness and corrosion resistance of the coating. Pyridinium propane sulfonate, as a leveling agent, can adjust the stress distribution of the coating, reduce the internal stress of the coating, thereby improving the toughness and crack resistance of the coating. In the second nickel plating solution, the contents of the additive and pyridinium propane sulfonate are relatively small, so the surface of the coating shows a relatively rough gloss. In the third nickel plating solution, on the basis of the basic components, more additives and pyridinium propane sulfonate are added, and the function is to improve the gloss and flatness of the coating, making the surface smoother and brighter.
[0061] In some embodiments, the current density of the semi-bright nickel plating treatment and the bright nickel plating treatment is 5 A / dm 2 ~15 A / dm 2 .
[0062] In some embodiments, the thickness of the electroplated nickel composite coating steel strip is 0.08 mm to 0.8 mm, and the width of the electroplated nickel composite coating steel strip is 600 mm to 1000 mm.
[0063] In some embodiments, the nickel layer thickness of the electroplated nickel composite coating steel strip is 0.5 μm to 6 μm, and the range of the nickel layer thickness of the electroplated nickel composite coating steel strip ≤ 0.24 μm.
[0064] The range of the nickel layer thickness refers to the maximum difference value of the nickel layer thickness on the electroplated nickel composite coating steel strip. In the embodiments of the present application, in order to ensure the consistency and reliability of the coating, the range of the nickel layer thickness is controlled within 0.24 μm. This control target aims to reduce the fluctuation of the coating thickness, thereby improving the overall performance and uniformity of the steel strip.
[0065] In some embodiments, the coating structure of the electroplated nickel composite coating steel strip includes: a dull nickel coating, a semi-bright nickel coating, and a semi-bright nickel - bright nickel coating; among them,
[0066] The thickness ratio of the dull nickel coating, the semi-bright nickel coating, and the semi-bright nickel - bright nickel coating is (1 - 1.3):(3.9 - 4):(1.8 - 2).
[0067] In the embodiments of the present application, the coating structure of the electroplated nickel composite coating steel strip is designed to include multiple layers, specifically including a dull nickel coating, a semi-bright nickel coating, and a semi-bright nickel - bright nickel coating. This multi-layer structure aims to provide various performance advantages, such as enhancing corrosion resistance, improving wear resistance, and improving appearance, etc.
[0068] In some embodiments, the anodes for the pre-nickel plating treatment, the semi-bright nickel plating treatment, and the bright nickel plating treatment are titanium baskets filled with nickel blocks. The frames of the titanium baskets are titanium-coated copper, and the interiors of the titanium baskets include titanium-coated copper rods.
[0069] The titanium baskets are used as anodes during electroplating. Their interiors are filled with the anode material, nickel blocks. Through the action of an electric current, the nickel blocks inside the titanium baskets gradually dissolve and deposit on the cathode to form the required electroplated layer. To improve the current distribution and enhance the uniformity of the coating, in the embodiments of the present application, the frames of the titanium baskets used are titanium-coated copper, and the interiors include titanium-coated copper rods to enhance the uniformity of current distribution in the titanium baskets.
[0070] In some embodiments, the production speed of the method is ≤ 32 m / min.
[0071] The method provided by the embodiments of the present application can reach a maximum production speed of 32 m / min, improving production efficiency while ensuring product quality.
[0072] The embodiments of the present application adopt a reverse osmosis filtration + evaporator concentration mode to treat nickel-containing wastewater, achieving zero discharge and reducing production costs.

For the experimental methods without specific conditions indicated in the following embodiments, they are generally determined according to national standards / industry standards; if there are no corresponding national standards / industry standards, they are carried out according to general international standards, conventional conditions, or the conditions recommended by the manufacturer.
