Effect of Stabilizers on Electromagnetic Property of Electroless Ni Coating on Aluminum Powder

Abstract:

Nickel-coated aluminum powders used as conductive fillers were prepared with different stabilizers added in electroless plating bath. Their Electrical conductivity and magnetoconductivity were measured to evaluate the effect of stabilizers on Nickel-coated aluminum powders. The results suggested that the electrical conductivity of Ni-coated aluminum powder was dependent on the variety and content of stabilizers while the magnetoconductivity was irrelevant to the stabilizers. It was proved that the concentration and variety of stabilizer had different influence on the microstructure of coating and changed the electrical conductivity of Ni-coated aluminum powder thereby.
