The service cycle of electroless nickel plating solution refers to the length of time that the solution can be effectively used, during which the solution can maintain its chemical properties and the quality of the coating. This cycle is affected by a number of factors, including the initial formulation of the solution, the amount of loading, the level of maintenance and management, and the quality requirements of the coating.
In general, the following factors may affect the service cycle of electroless nickel plating solution:
1. Frequency of use: Frequently used baths may exhaust their active ingredients more quickly, so they need to be replenished or replaced more frequently.
2. Solution management: The service life of electroless nickel plating solution can be prolonged by regular analysis and supplementation of the required chemical components in the solution (such as nickel salts, reducing agents and other chemical additives)
3. Pollution control: The accumulation of impurities and pollutants can destroy the performance of the solution, requiring regular filtration and treatment to maintain the effectiveness of the solution.
4. Deposition rate: In the case of improper control of process parameters (such as temperature and pH), too fast or too slow deposition rate will affect the quality of the coating, and then affect the service life of the solution.
5. Process conditions: the stability of operating temperature, pH value, stirring conditions and other parameters will affect the service life of the potion.
Typically, the management and maintenance of a bath includes regular sampling, testing and adjustment to ensure that it is always in proper working conditions. These measures help improve the life cycle and reduce the waste of resources.
However, when the performance of the electroless nickel plating solution can not be recovered by adding fresh ingredients, it is necessary to replace the entire plating solution, and the consumption of the plating solution accounts for more than half of the entire electroless nickel plating cost, which will undoubtedly increase the cost of production, to this end, we can use Bigely electroless nickel plating solution, it can be used for 10-12 cycles with long service life, and reduce the cost for electroplating enterprises.
