CONSTITUTION:Zr is precipitated by electrolysis on the metal part of a metal electrode having a ceramic part in a plating bath of molten salt containing Zr ion, and at the same time, the ceramic part is plated with Zr or Zr alloy to obtain a Zr and Zr-alloy coating film on the ceramic. When Zr, Ti, Fe or Ni is used as the metal part of the metal electrode having the ceramic part, a Zr film is formed on the ceramic part. When Al is used as the metal part, a Zr-Al alloy film is formed on the ceramic part.

Description: [0001] The present invention relates to a method for plating Zr or Zr alloy on a ceramic by an electroplating method. [0002] [Prior art and its problems] A composite material in which a ceramic is coated with Zr or a Zr alloy has excellent corrosion resistance and heat resistance, and has a small thermal neutron absorption cross section. Is expected. Conventionally, Z
As a method of coating with r or Zr alloy, there are a vacuum deposition method, a CVD method, and a brazing method. The vacuum vapor deposition method and the CVD method have complicated apparatus configurations because of the high boiling point of Zr, and none have been put to practical use on a mass production scale. The brazing method also has a complicated apparatus configuration due to the high boiling point of Zr and is poor in adhesion, smoothness and uniformity. Therefore, there has been a demand for a coating method which can be mass-produced relatively inexpensively and has excellent adhesion, smoothness, and uniformity. [0003] [Means for Solving the Problem] The present invention relates to a metal part of a metal electrode with a ceramic in which a ceramic is brought into contact with a metal in a LiCl-KCl-based molten salt plating bath containing Zr ions. By electrolytically depositing Zr and simultaneously plating Zr or a Zr alloy on the ceramic,
It was made possible to coat Zr and Zr alloys on ceramics. The growth of these coatings is two-dimensionally grown on the ceramic from the metal / ceramic contact area. Zr, Ti, Fe, Ni on the metal part of the metal electrode with ceramic
When the alloy is used, a Zr coating film is formed on the ceramic, and when Al is used for the metal part, a Zr—Al alloy coating film is formed on the ceramic. The composition of this Zr-Al alloy changes depending on the plating conditions. As the plating conditions, the Zr ion concentration of the plating bath is 1.5 × 10 −2 mol / dm 2
Then, in order to keep the balance of Zr ion concentration, metal Zr was used for the anode, and anodic dissolution of Zr was performed. The bath temperature is 5
The temperature is set to 00 to 560 ° C., and plating is performed at a current density of 0.4 to 1.5 A / dm 2 with a direct current or a pulse current. It is desirable to stir the bath to achieve more uniform plating. The bath temperature is set in the range of 500 to 560 ° C. The Zr ion takes a divalent or tetravalent valence in the range of 450 to 560 ° C., and its abundance ratio changes depending on the temperature.
Since it has a property of being tetravalent near 0 ° C. and stable at around 550 ° C. and divalent, at 450 ° C., precipitation of Zr becomes a two-step reaction such as Zr (IV) → Zr (II) → Zr, Zr cannot be stably deposited. That is, low valence ions are required to stably deposit Zr, and thus plating at 500 ° C. or lower is difficult. Also Z
At around 450 ° C., rCl 4 is considerably volatile and the concentration of Zr ions in the bath decreases, so that uniform plating cannot be obtained. On the contrary, when the temperature is higher than 560 ° C, it has a drawback that decomposition of the bath occurs. Next, regarding the current density, if the current density is lower than 0.4 A / dm 2 , Zr will be deposited on the metal part, but plating on the ceramic will be difficult, and if it is higher than 1.5 A / dm 2. However, uniform plating with good adhesiveness cannot be obtained, and it deposits in powder or dendritic form. [0004] [Example] [0005] Example 1 A ceramic plate-shaped test piece (2 containing Al 2 O 3 as a main component).
(mm thickness × 20 mm length × 10 mm width) is used as a plating base material, the surface is degreased with acetone, pickled with 10% nitric acid and washed with water, and dried, and then an electrode (material Zr,
Ti, Fe, and Ni were attached so as to be in contact with 2 mm thick × 9 mm long × 10 mm width). Next, this electrode with ceramics was dried and then electroplated under the following conditions using a molten salt plating bath in a dry Ar atmosphere. As a result, the surface of the plating was gray in any of the electrodes, and uniform Zr plating with good adhesion was formed. [0006] Example 2 The same ceramic plate-shaped test piece as in Example 1 was attached so as to be in contact with an electrode (material Al 2 mm thickness x 9 mm length x 10 mm width) serving as a cathode, and the same procedure as in Example 1 was performed. It was plated. As a result, the plating surface is silver white,
A uniform Zr-Al alloy plating with good adhesion was formed. As a result of composition analysis, the composition of the film was Zr45.1a.
It was t% and Al54.9at%. [0007] [Plating conditions] Bath composition: LiCl: KCl = 58.5 mol%: 4
1.5 mol% bath temperature: 540 ° C. additive: Zr ion 1.5 × 10 −2 mol / d
