摘要:
An apparatus for stereo-electrochemical deposition of metal layers consisting of an array of anodes, a cathode, a positioning system, a fluid handling system for an electrolytic solution, communications circuitry, control circuitry and software control. The anodes are electrically operated to promote deposition of metal layers in any combination on the cathode to fabricate a structure.
摘要:
Compositions are described which are useful particularly in improving the electrodeposition of zinc from aqueous alkaline plating baths. In one embodiment, the new composition comprises the reaction product of(A-1) at least one nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound with(A-2) at least one hydroxyamine;(A-3) an epihalohydrin, glycerolhalohydrin or mixtures thereof; and(A-4) at least one amino compound containing at least one N--H group to form the desired polymeric composition.Aqueous alkaline zinc electroplating baths containing the compositions of the invention with or without cyanide present, deposit a bright and lustrous zinc coating on metal over a wide range of current densities.
摘要:
The addition of an inner salt of a quaternized pyridine carboxamide, preferably 1-benzyl pyridinium-3-carboxamide to aqueous alkaline electroplating baths containing zinc and cadmium ions results in smooth, bright deposits of these metals. High plating efficiency with low consumption of the additive compound is obtained using it either alone or in combination with small amounts of nicotinamide.
摘要:
Electroplating brightener compositions for addition to either alkaline or low, intermediate or high cyanide zinc or cadmium electroplating baths comprising an aqueous solution of corn syrup or glucose, vanillin, veratraldehyde, sodium lignin sulfonate, sodium bisulfite and niacinamide.
摘要:
A BATH FOR ELECTROPLATING ZINC CONTAINING IN AQUEOUS SOLUTION A ZINC SALT, AN ALKALI METAL CYANIDE, AN ALKALI METAL HYDROXIDE, AN ALDEHYDE-ALKANOLAMINE CONDENSATION PRODUCT, A WATER SOLUBLE POLYVINYL ALCOHOL AND OPTIONALLY SALTS OF METALS OF GROUPS VII-B OR VIII OF THE PERIODIC TABLE OF ELEMENTS AND FURTHER TRICOTONYLENE TETRAMINE AND TRITHIONE (3-THIO-3H-1,2-DITHIOLE), SAID BATH HAVING A LOW CYANIDE CONTENT, YIELDS HIGHLY BRILLANT ZINC COATINGS WITH VERY GOOD THROWING POWER AND METAL DISTRIBUTION. PREFERRED ALDEHYDE-ALKANOLAMINE CONDENSATION PRODUCTS ARE CONDENSATION PRODUCTS OF A MONO-ALKANOLAMINE WITH AN AROMATIC ALDEHYDE OF THE GENERAL FORMULA
(O=CH-),(R)X-BENZENE
WHEREIN R IS HYDROXYL AND/OR LOWER ALKOXY HAVING FROM 1 TO 4 CARBON ATOMS AND X IS ZERO, ONE, OR TWO.
摘要:
There is disclosed a process for electrodepositing zinc involving the use, as brightening additives, of complex mixtures containing salts of di-(1-benzyl-3-carboxyl-1,2-dihydropyridyl-2) ether and the salts of the corresponding sulfides and polysulfides. The use of the latter additives leads to the preparation of zinc coatings characterized by their excellent smoothness, brightness, luster and adherance.
