Black chrome plating additives

Black chrome plating additives

CR—3 black chromium additive

One, Features and uses

(1) It can be directly electroplated on the bottom layer of stainless steel, copper, nickel, chromium, etc., with good bonding force.      

(2) The plating solution is stable, the formula is simple, and the operation is convenient.      

Two, Composition and process conditions

Three, Preparation of plating solution

     1. Dissolve the calculated amount of chromic anhydride in an appropriate amount of distilled water, stir to dissolve it, and add 2-5 g/L of barium carbonate to remove the sulfate radical in the chromic anhydride. After the solution is clear, pour it into the plating tank.

     2. Dissolve sodium nitrate with distilled water, and pour the clear liquid into the tank.

     3. Add the CR-3 black chromium additive in formula amount.

     4. Finally, add distilled water to the specified volume, fully stir and electrolytic test plating.

Fourth, the role of plating solution components

     1. Chromic anhydride is the main component in the plating solution. When the content of chromic anhydride is low, the covering ability of the plating solution will be poor; when the content of chromic anhydride is too high, the hardness of the coating will decrease, generally controlled between 180-220 g/L.

     2. CR-3 black chromium additive can improve the dispersion ability of the plating solution and the blackness of the coating. If the content is too high, it will cause brittleness of the coating and shelling. During the production, the content of additives should be controlled within the process range, and the consumption is 300-400ml/KA·H.

     3. Sodium nitrate is a blackening agent in the plating solution. When its content is low, the coating is not black, and when its content is high, the dispersion and covering ability of the plating solution is poor.

Five, the maintenance points of the solution:

     1. When electroplating black chromium, due to the high current density used, the temperature of the bath is likely to rise during the electroplating process. When the temperature exceeds 40°C, the quality of the coating is poor. Therefore, it is best to install a cooling device.

     2. Sulfate and chloride are harmful impurities in electroplating black chromium solution. When the plating solution contains sulfate radicals, the coating is light yellow, and the sulfate radicals can be removed with an appropriate amount of sodium carbonate; when the plating solution contains chloride ions, the coating is yellowish brown, and the dispersibility of the plating solution is significantly reduced. Use an appropriate amount of chloride ions The silver nitrate is removed.

     3. It is better to use lead anodes containing 10-15% tin in this process.
