The work of preparing International Standards is nor
15、mally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in
16、the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepar
17、e International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that som
18、e of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 15726 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 107, Metallic and other inorganic coatings, Subcommittee SC 3, Electrodeposited coatings and r
19、elated finishes. BS ISO 15726:2009ISO 15726:2009(E) ISO 2009 All rights reserved vIntroduction Electrodeposited zinc alloy coatings containing nickel, cobalt or iron are significantly more corrosion-resistant than electrodeposited zinc coatings of equivalent thickness. The alloy coatings are anodic
20、to steel, but less so than pure zinc. Although originally developed for the continuous coating of steel for the fabrication of automobile body panels, zinc alloy electroplating processes have become available that are suitable for the rack and barrel electroplating of individual components. In the c
21、ase of zinc-nickel alloys, proprietary acid and alkaline electroplating processes exist that yield deposits with controlled nickel contents. Zinc-nickel coatings containing either 8 % or 12 % nickel are most widely used, and are often considered possible substitutes for cadmium coatings. Zinc-nickel
22、 alloy coatings can reportedly be applied by brush electroplating techniques. The alloy coatings are often used in combination with chromate conversion coatings, organic sealants and other supplementary treatments to further enhance corrosion resistance, and often serve as the base for applying orga
23、nic coatings. Chromate conversion coatings formulated specifically for use with zinc-cobalt and zinc-nickel alloy coatings are available for producing yellow- to bronze-coloured surfaces.

33、urchaser to the electroplater 4.1 Essential information When ordering articles to be electroplated in accordance with this International Standard, the purchaser shall provide the following information in writing, for example in the contract or purchase order, or on engineering drawings: a) the numbe
34、r of this International Standard (ISO 15726) and the article designation (see Clause 5); b) the significant surface to be electroplated, as indicated, for example, by drawings or by the provision of suitably marked samples and of any surfaces that are not to be electroplated; c) the nature, conditio
35、n and finish of the basis metal if they are likely to affect the serviceability and/or appearance of the coating; d) position, type, dimensions and number of unavoidable defects on the surface, such as rack marks, that can be tolerated (see 6.1); e) appearance of the zinc alloy coating, for example
36、as-deposited or with a chemical conversion coating and/or other supplementary treatment (see Clause 5 and 6.1); Alternatively, samples showing the appearance shall be supplied or approved by the purchaser and used for comparison purposes (see 6.1). f) type of chromate conversion coating or supplemen
