Study on Electroless Nickel Plating Process and Property of Aluminum Alloy

Abstract

Electroless nickle coating with plain and high binding force was obtained in this experiment .the samples were heat treated and diffused, then microstructure and transformation was investigated by optical microscope and scanning electron microscope. The hardness, binding force, wear and corrosion resistance are tested, the reasonable heat treatment process is gained. Hardness is increased after eletroless nickel plating and heat treatment compared with the matrix. The adhesion of sample heat treated at 400°C is highest, the weight loss and friction coefficient is lowest, the corrosion resistance is best..

The Effect of Nickel Electroplating Time on Alumunium 2024 to ITS Mechanical Property

“…There have been previous studies of the characteristics of electroless nickel coatings on aluminum alloys (17,(19)(20)(21)(22) , However, there aren't many works that specifically address how the properties of electroplating change with time. In addition, coating nickel on an aluminum mixture without harming the mixture's structure required a relatively complicated and complex approach, which was used in earlier studies.…”
