Chrome Plating On Plastic Process
To prepare plastic for chrome plating, it undergoes roughening and activation as key pre-treatment steps. The critical step is electroless plating, where a thin nickel layer (a few microns thick) is applied to create a conductive base for copper and nickel plating.
1. Loading: Fix the workpieces onto a rack for plating.
2. Degreasing: Clean the surface of the workpiece to remove oil and grease.
3. Hydrophilizing: Make the surface of the workpiece hydrophilic to prepare it for subsequent treatments.
4. Etching: Increase the surface roughness of the workpiece through chemical methods.
5. Catalyzing: Apply a catalytic treatment to prepare for chemical nickel plating.
6. Elecotroless Plating: Deposit a super thin nickel layer onto the surface of the workpiece.
7. Acid Activation: Acid wash the surface to prepare for electroplating.
8. Copper Flash Plating: Apply a thin layer of copper through flash plating.
9. Acid Copper Plating: Apply a thicker copper layer through acid copper plating.
10. Multi-layer Nickel Plating: Apply multiple layers of nickel for enhanced corrosion resistance.
11. Bright Chrome Plating: Electroplate the workpiece with a bright chrome layer.
12. Unloading: Take the finished workpiece off the rack.
