19、2011 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard defines the method for depositing cadmium layers according to the vacuum deposition process, for use in aerospace construction. According to this process, cadmium metal is vaporised under vacuum and deposited directly on the base material with an interlayer.

20、 The coating produced in this way is ductile and electrically conductive. This standard should be applicable whenever referenced. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

It ensures protection against corrosion, in particular for steels of Rm max. 1 450 MPa. It may be beneficial to

26、tensile bolts of Rm max. 1 250 MPa. 4 Limitation of process use The contact of cadmium-plated parts with titanium, titanium alloys, fuels and fuel line shall be avoided at temperature 3,2 mm) Class C: 5 m to 10 m (for bolts with a thread diameter 3,2 mm) 7 Apparatus and materials 7.1 Vacuum enclosur

27、e The vacuum enclosure shall contain the following equipment: a variable heating system for vaporisation of the cadmium; a rotating device to achieve a regular coating; a vaporising dish; a glow system and a vacuum gauge as well as an inspection window. Furthermore, a pump system is required, allowi

28、ng a vacuum of at least 6,65 10-3Pa to be reached. 7.2 Deposition material The cadmium used for deposition shall be at least 99,95 % pure. The mercury content shall not exceed the maximum level of 0,004 %. The quality shall be confirmed by certificate. 7.3 Masking material The masking materials used

29、, such as masking varnishes, lead or textile tapes, paper or aluminium foils shall not release gases during the process. BS EN 2535:2011EN 2535:2011 (E) 7 8 Information for the processor In addition to the designation in clause 19, the following information shall be stated: a) number of the substrat

30、e standard and metallurgical condition of the substrate; b) surface to be treated; c) non specific coating thicknesses of the cadmium coating and tolerances; d) if post-treatment by chromating does not have to be carried out. 9 Condition of parts prior to processing 9.1 General Unless otherwise spec

31、ified, all machining operations, moulding, brazing and welding treatments as well as heat treatments, shall be completed before plating. 9.2 Stress relief treatment The conditions for stress relief treatment of steel parts shall be determined according to the nature and hardness of the material. A s

32、light discoloration by superficial oxidation is permitted. Shot peening, if required, shall be carried out after stress relief treatment. 10 Process schedule Unless otherwise specified, the following process schedule is mandatory: a) degreasing; b) abrasive blasting; c) degreasing (if necessary, e.g

33、. to remove any abrasive residues); d) suspension in the device; e) evacuation of the enclosure; f) ionic etching (sputter cleaning) (if necessary); g) deposition; h) flooding and venting of the enclosure; i) removal; j) chromating; k) preservation or application of paint. BS EN 2535:2011EN 2535:201

34、1 (E) 8 11 Pre-treatment NOTE Chemical or electrochemical process such as acid pickling, electrolytic cathodic degreasing or processes causing hydrogen embrittlement are not permitted for steels of Rmmax. 1 450 MPa. 11.1 Degreasing The parts shall be cleaned by appropriate and qualified organic solv

35、ents. NOTE After pre-treatment the parts shall be coated within 4 h. Otherwise, the parts shall be stored for a short time either under vacuum, in an inert gas atmosphere, in anydrous ethanol, or in anydrous acetone. 11.2 Abrasive blasting The parts shall be cleaned by abrasive blasting in such a wa

36、y that the surface is of a uniform mat appearance. For this operation, care shall be taken to see that the compressed air is de-oiled by a special filter. Parts cleaned by abrasive blasting shall not be rougher than specified in the design documents for the finished cadmium-plated surface. After gri

37、t blasting, all parts shall be cleared of blasting medium residues, e.g. by blowing with oil free compressed air. Where wet blasting is used, the part shall be carefully dried after treatment. 12 Treatment 12.1 Suspension and clamping of parts The parts shall be placed in such a way that a regular d

38、eposition is ensured, if necessary by means of appropriate supporting jigs. Attachment magnets may also be used for attachment, but this requires demagnetisation of the parts after the cadmium-plating process. The parts may undergo the treatment several times to ensure a regular coating at the requi

39、red thickness. For each batch, the required test samples shall be put in the deposition device at the same time. 12.2 Evacuation of the enclosure (primary vacuum) Evacuation shall be carried out until a vacuum of at least 1,33 10-2Pa is obtained. 12.3 Sputter cleaning Before starting the deposition

40、operation, ionic etching shall be applied with a suitable inert gas (e.g. argon) to obtain a final cleaning of the parts. The part is used as a cathode. The current and etching time shall be selected according to the installation and the geometry of the part in order to ensure optimum cleaning. 12.4

41、 Deposition Before starting the actual deposition process, the operational vacuum shall be regulated according to the specific characteristics of the part. The deposition times for the required coating thickness shall be determined by preliminary tests. The depositions progress, especially the perfo

42、rmance of the rotating system, shall be monitored during the process. BS EN 2535:2011EN 2535:2011 (E) 9 It is permissible to re-load the vaporising dish several times with cadmium to obtain particularly thick layers. However, if the vacuum in the chamber has been disturbed, the vacuum shall be resto

43、red to its operational level before any further deposition. 12.5 Flooding, venting After deposition, clean dry air shall be admitted to the enclosure. The enclosure shall not be opened until the external pressure has been reached and it has been assured that no molten cadmium remains in the vaporisi

44、ng dish. 12.6 Removal When the enclosure has been opened and during removal, the parts shall not be touched with bare hands. The parts shall only be handled with clean gloves until their final treatment (e.g. chromating, greasing, oiling) is complete. The same standard of hygiene is required for sto

45、rage surfaces or packaging. 13 Post-treatment 13.1 Chromating A post-treatment by chromating shall be carried out according to EN 2437 within 8 h following the deposition. If parts are not to be chromated, this shall be indicated in the design documents. The colour is specified according to ISO 4520

46、 class 2-C. 13.2 Additional protection The nature and type of any additional protection after cadmium-plating shall be specified in the design document. 14 Removal of the coating 14.1 Chemical process Defective cadmium coatings shall be chemically removed with a solution which does not attack the ba

47、sic material (e.g. 100 g/l to 300 g/l ammonium nitrate solution at ambient temperature for approximately 10 min). The parts are then thoroughly rinsed in clean water and dried. 14.2 Mechanical process It is preferable to remove the cadmium coating by abrasive blasting, as this method avoids any embr

48、ittlement by hydrogen absorption. Care shall be taken during abrasive blasting so that the part is handled in such a way as to ensure uniform removal. However, this method shall only be used in self-contained installations. BS EN 2535:2011EN 2535:2011 (E) 10 15 Required characteristics 15.1 Appearan

49、ce All the surfaces coated under vacuum shall be of a regular mat appearance, however, a mother-of-pearl type surface is not a cause for rejection. The cadmium layer shall not have any blisters, pores, cracks, contamination or irregularities. It shall not have any powdery or dark areas. 15.2 Thickness of the layer It shall correspond to the indications defined in the design documents. 15.3 Adhesion The layer of cadmium shall satisfy the adhesion test according to 16.1.3. 15.4 Corrosion resistance Cadmium-plated and chromated parts shal
