Optimization of the Process Conditions Based on Depositing Rate and Micro-Hardness for Electroless Ni-P-Nano SiC Composite Plating

Article Preview

Abstract:

The orthogonal test method has been used to study the effects of the concentration of SiC, the speed of mixing, the temperature and the surfactants on depositing rate and micro-hardness, and obtained the optimized technological scheme and fine Ni-P-SiC composite coating. The results showed that using citric acid-acetic acid as complexing agents can obtain high speed of depositing and homogeneous coating with SiC well-distributed. Among the technological parameters, the effects of temperature on depositing rate is biggest, and the surfactants is next; the effects of the concentration of SiC particles on micro-hardness is biggest, and the surfactants is next. Give consideration to depositing rate and stability of the liquid, the temperature should be controlled at 82±2°C, the concentration of SiC particles and surfactants should be controlled in 4g/L and 60mg/L.
