ASTM B629-1977(2003) Standard Practice for Preparation of Molybdenum and Molybdenum Alloys for Electroplating《电镀用钼和钼合金的制备》.pdf

1、Designation: B 629 77 (Reapproved 2003)Standard Practice forPreparation of Molybdenum and Molybdenum Alloys forElectroplating1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B 629; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision

2、, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers a procedure for preparing molyb-denum and its alloys for electroplating. The proce

3、dure utilizestechniques, equipment, and chemicals that are common toelectroplating. Specialized procedures such as hydrogen heattreatment and fused salt pickling are not included. These andother procedures can be found in the references listed at the endof this practice.1.2 This standard does not pu

4、rport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2. Significance and Use2.1 Molybdenum is use

5、d in engineering applications wherestrength and rigidity of component parts are needed, especiallyat high temperatures. Its good strength at high temperatures,low vapor pressure, and good impact and creep resistancemake it attractive for load-bearing items such as turbine blades,mechanical seals, ro

6、cket motor parts, heating elements, andelectronic devices. Molybdenum, however, is easily oxidized,and the oxides are not protective. The volatility of the oxidesabove 800C can lead, in the case of unprotected parts, tocatastrophic oxidation and to losses in dimensions. Electro-plated coatings are a

7、pplied to molybdenum to prevent oxida-tion, to prevent seizing and galling, and to assist joining bysoldering, brazing, and diffusion bonding.3. Procedure3.1 Precleaning:3.1.1 The principles of electroplating on molybdenum aresimilar to those of other metals. The surfaces must be free ofdirt, grease

8、, and other foreign matter. Solvent, emulsion, andsoak cleaners are suitable for precleaning to remove grosssurface contaminants. If a molybdenum specimen is subjectedto severe forming operations and retains a carbonaceoussurface layer, descale the part by immersion in a 110 g/Lsolution of sodium hy

9、droxide at or near boiling, or bymechanical finishing. Glass bead blasting can be used toremove uneven coatings of scale without disturbing the finishof the metal.3.1.2 Cathodic alkaline cleaning is preferred for the finalprecleaning so as to avoid anodic oxidation. Proprietaryformulations used for

10、cathodic alkaline cleaning of othermetals are suitable. Cathodic treatment at about 6 V for 30 to60 s is usually adequate, using a cleaner concentration of 60 to75g/L and a solution temperature of 60 to 75C.3.2 RinseHere, and throughout the procedure, the waterrinses should be warm (approximately 50

11、C).3.3 ElectropolishingEither of the following electropol-ishes may be used. The choice of electropolish and timedepends on the amount of material that can be removed and thedegree of surface improvement desired. The cathodes may belead or carbon. The sulfuric acid bath produces a blue film thatis p
