The use of Cu-510, a dye-based acid copper brightener, is not only widespread but also of particular importance in the electroplating process. Cu-510 is an important additive to improve the quality of copper sulfate plating. In the following, we will introduce the mechanism of action of Bigely Cu-510 dye-based acid copper brightener and its advantages in electroplating production.
Action mechanism of dye-based acid copper brightener Cu-510
Dye-based acid copper brightener Cu-510 optimizes the brightness and flatness of the plated layer by regulating the deposition process of copper ions. Its mechanism of action mainly involves the following aspects:
1. Adsorption and dispersion mechanism: The dye molecules in Cu-510 can be quickly adsorbed on the cathode surface to form a uniform molecular film. This film can effectively prevent copper ions from directly aggregating and depositing over a large area, which is conducive to the uniform distribution of Cu^2+ ions, resulting in grain refinement of the plated layer, and a brighter and flatter plated layer.
2. Cathodic polarization: the molecular structure of the dye-based brightener can form a weak polarization phenomenon near the cathode, such polarization can slow down the rate of reduction of copper ions, so that the deposition process is more uniform and balanced, to further enhance the quality of the coating.
3. Composite effect: acid copper brightener is often used together with wetting agent, leveling agent, etc., synergistic effect between them, can enhance its bright effect, improve the toughness and corrosion resistance of the coating.
Benefits of using dye-based brightener Cu-510
Based on the above mechanism of action, Bigely dye-based acid copper brightener Cu-510 brings the following advantages in the production process:
1. Enhancement of the brightness of the plated layer: Due to the effect of Cu-510 in refining the grain and optimizing the flatness of the plated layer, the brightness of the plated copper layer is enhanced, and the difference in the surface smoothness is reduced, which greatly improves the appearance quality of the finished product.
2. Increased production efficiency: Cu-510 can effectively reduce plating defects, lower rework rate and improve production efficiency. At the same time, in the plating process, the current density can be operated in a wider range, substantially overcoming the instability of the existing process process.
3. Reduced plating cost: Under the condition of ensuring good bright plating layer, Cu-510 can reduce the dependence on precious metal additives, effectively reduce the production cost, and at the same time prolong the service life of plating solution.
By adopting Bigely dye-based acid copper brightener Cu-510, the plating plant has not only realized higher processing quality, but also achieved significant advantages in terms of productivity and cost control.
