Definitions

  • This invention relates to a process for the electroplating of cadmium-titanium alloy, wherein a titanium compound is dissolved in a cadmium cyanide plating bath and the solution is subjected to electrolysis, using a conventional cadmium as anode, in order to obtain an anticorrosive coating consisting of an alloy of cadmium with titanium.
  • titanium salts namely, titanium sulfate, chloride, fluoride, oxalate, citrate, tartrate, etc. are soluble in neutral or acidic aqueous solutions, but are insoluble in alkaline aqueous solutions producing quite a precipitate of titanium hydroxide by hydrolysis reaction.
  • the main object of the present invention to provide a novel electro-plating process to produce more efiicient and superior anti-corrosive coatings in an economical and industrial manner than conventional cadmium coating methods.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a novel electro-plating process, in which coatings consisting of cadmium-titanium alloy may be produced in an remarkably effective manner.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a novel electro-plating process to obtain plating coatings of relatively higher surface-hardness than conventional cadmium platings.
  • This invention is the method in which cadmiumtitanium alloy plating is obtained by electrolysis of a cadmium cyanide plating bath being gradually added to a special titanium compound.
  • Sodium pertitanate is a stable in an alkaline cadmium cyanide plating solution of pH-values 13-14, and does not tend to precipitate by hydrolysis in the solution or to be reduced to a metallic state by hydrogen activated by cadmium with high hydrogen over voltage on the cathode. Thereafter, it easily alloys cadmium of the packed hexagonal system, crystalline structure. This fact is determined by the Mattauchs mass-spectrum analysis.
  • cadmium-titanium alloy coating shows a higher anti-corrosive quality several times as strong as a conventional cadmium plating, determined by a number of tests using salt spray and by exposure tests, There are apparently considerable differences in electron microscopic structure between cadmium-titanium alloy coating and conventional cadmium alloy coating.
  • the plated surface according to this method is not only excellent in anti-corrosive and uniform qualities, but also has a satisfactory mechanical workability after being plated for pressing, deep-drawing, and bending, in addition to a comparatively higher hardness than a conventional cadmium plating.
  • This plating may be carried into effect with a current density of 2-5 amperes per square decimeter with a high throwing power.
  • the process may be carried into effect with use of a current density of l-3 amperes per square decimeter, with equal results.
  • Example 1 To a cadmium plating bath, containing 30 grams of cadmium cyanide, 50 grams of sodium cyanide and 20 grams of caustic soda per litre of solution, is continuously added the titanium compound obtained by the additional reaction of orthotitanic acid with hydrogen peroxide so as to maintain the concentration at a rate each of 0.5-1 gram per litre of liquid, in such a way that the liquid is continuously passed through a filter charged with the said compound.
  • the galvanization is carried into effect, using a conventional cadmium plate as anode, with a cathodic current density of 4 amperes per square decimeter for 15 minutes, thus obtaining a uniform, bright, superior and well-deposited layer of cadmium-titanium alloy.
  • the thus coated layer is 20 microns in thickness and contains about 0.3% of titanium as determined by the spectrum analysis, and perfectly certified by the Mattauchs mass analysis that titanium in the layer remains in a metallic state.
  • cadmium-titanium alloy coatings may be produced by a simple technique and with substantially more effective and superior anti-corrosive characteristics than those obtainable by conventional cadmium plating.
  • the process according to this invention represents a highly advantageous galvanizing method, which is easily carried into practice in an economical and industrial manner.
  • cadmium cyanide 50 grams of an alkali metal cyanide 0.5-1 gram of sodium pertitanate sufiicient quantity of alkali to maintain a pH of between 2.
  • An aqueous electrolytic bath for electroplating an alloy consisting of cadmium and titanium employing a cadmium anode containing the following compounds in grams per liter of water:
  • a method for electroplating an alloy consisting of cadmium and titanium comprising utilizing a cadmium anode, employing an aqueous electrolytic bath containing the following compounds in grams per liter of Water:
  • a method for electroplating an alloy consisting of cadmium and titanium comprising utilizing a cadmium anode, employing an aqueous electrolytic bath containing the following compounds in grams per liter of water:
