AN ECONOMICAL FAST BRUSH PLATING TECHNIOLOGY

Brush plating is fit for the repairing of the good-sized parts that can not easily be moved.However,it has relatively slow plating-speed when traditional formulas,such as nickel-tungsten-cobalt formula,are used.Fast-brush-plating solution has a high price.Therefore,it is very significant to develop an economical fast brush plating technology.The effects of power wave form,nickel sulfate,hypo-sodium phosphate and complex agent on the speed and plating layer morphology of brush plating were studied using scale micrometer and SEM. An economical fast nickel-phosphorous brush plating formula and technology,which can be used for the brush plating of wear-resisting steel parts,has been developed.
