COLIN G. FIN K, OF NEW YORK, N. Y ASSIGNOR TO CHEMICAL TREAMENT COMPANY, INC., 0]? NEW YORK, N. Y., A CORPORATION OF NEW YORK.
PROCESS OF ELECTRODEPOSITING CHROMIUM AND OF PREPARING BATES THEEEFOR.
Ho Drawing. Application filed December To all whom. it may concern:
Be it known that 1, Court G. FINK, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at New York, county of New York, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Processes of Electrodepositmg Chromium and of Preparing Baths 'lhcrefor, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to the electrodcposition of chromium, and to the preparation of electrolytic solutions for use therein, and aims to provide improvements therein.
For nearly a century there has appeared in the literature considerable matter in re spect to chromium plating, and in that literature the use of chromic acid as an electrolyte, as well as the use of various socalled addition agents has been proposed. Notwithstanding these disclosures, a practical and commercially available process of electroplating chromium has not heretofore been known, nor have any of the attempts to establish the commercial art of electrodepositing chromium ever satisfied the test of actual commercial requirements. What attempts have been made have always given uncertain and unreliable results and have resulted in ultimate failure as a reliable or satisfactory commercial process.
According to my invention, I pass an electric current (from an anode to a cathode, the latter serving as the object on which the metal is to be deposited) through a suitable chromium-carr ing electrolytic solution, in the presence 0 a catalyst. The catalyst is, as usual, a bystander which does not enter into the electro-chemical decomposition. The chromium-carrying electrolyte which I have found suitable for my process, is a solution of chromic acid, its egree of concentration as regards baths of commercial interest ranging from about 150 grams per litre to saturation.
The catalytic agent which I use is one having an acid radical which is stable in the bath and which remains stable under the actions which occur in the process when the current is passed through the bath. This catalytic agent is one which performs its action at the cathode. Substances which 19, 1925. Serial No. 76,529.
I find available as catalytic agents and which remain stable, are acids and bases having a sulphate radical; acids and bases having a fluoride radical; acids and bases which have a phosphate radical; and acids and bases which have a borateradical.
The amount of the catalytic agent or agents (stable radicals) means the total 0 such agents whether of one kind or another that are actually in the bath, that is, all of the stable radicals must be computed, whether of one kind or another, and whether originally in the chromic acid, in the catalytic agent, or otherwise entering the bath, and this is best ascertained by analysis of the final solution and not (.Olllputed from analyses of the several materials entering into it such as chromic acid, catalytic agent, etc, as these are dilficult to make and the analyses such as are now supplied with these materials cannot be relied upon. The quantities of catalytic agent (stable radicals) which is necessary in the bath for reliable results should be total within the limits given, and the hath made up by adding to or subtracting from the.
quantity of catalytic agent (stable radicals) already present in the chromic acid solution the necessary amount to bring the total amount up to or down to the given limits, and regulated within said given limits for continuous operation.
When unstable radicals are present in the solution, account must be taken thereof and of their evanescent character. Therefore, when unstable radicals (as acids and bases having anitrate or organic radical) are present, they must be initially included in the totality of catalytic agent, and replaced as they are lost, the replacement rationally being with stable radicals. Alternatively, the unstable radicals may be initially eliminated. The bath reaches a permanent efficacy when the total catal tie a cut or agents are stable radicals and t e concentration of chromic acid is maintained).
I maintain on the cathode a definite film of hydrogen, which mustnot be too thin or too thick. I have discovered that the chronium ion needs to be protected as it gives up its charge on reaching the cathode. This protection provide by means of the hydrofrom a strength where no gen film. I maintain this film by the electric current, and I make the amount or value of the total current reatly in excess of that carried as a charge by the chromium ions which are deposited. This excess of current energy I employ in releasin hydrogen at the cathode to maintain said m. My observation is that, activated by the catalytic agent, chromic acid, or it may be another compound of chromium formed in the bath) undergoes reduction when the current is passed, releasin a chromium ion in the field of attraction o the cathode. It moves with a certain velocity toward the cathode. The hydrogen film should not be so thick as to prevent the discharge of this chromium ion at the cathode. Yet it should be thick enough to rotect the chromium ion from oxidation uring nascence and until the cathode is reached and the ion discharges. The chromium ion, I find, needs this protection of the hydrogen film, since the chromic acid is an active oxidizing agent and the chromium ion is extremely sensitive to oxidation. The densit and thickness of this hydrogen film is efinable in terms of current density and temperature, and the current densities and temperatures which correspond to eliicacious hydrogen film thickness are best found empirically. To do this, I immerse a copper or brass sheet of metal as a cathode in a bath of known composition and temperature and regulate the current (by the rheostat for example) up to or down eposit occurs, until a s ectre-like mist or cloud appears against t e background of the cop or or brass cathode, which is a visual indication of the initiation of the deposition of chromium. Noting the current density at which the mists appear when increasing and decreasing the current strength from above and from below those densities at which no deposit occurs, the current density limits for the given temperature of the bath, are ascertained. The current density limits for ranges of temperature are likewise ascer tained.
The amount of stable radicals (catalytic agent) in the-bath should approximate 2.5 grams, be not less than 1 gram, and not exceed 5 grams of sulphate radical, or an equivalent amount of the other radicals herein mentioned, per litre of a solution containing 250 grains per litre of chromic acid.
The amount of catalytic agent (stable radieels-or stable and unstable) will be proportional to the concentration of chromic acid in the solution. That is, for a solution containing 500 grains per litre of chromic acid, the amount of sulphate radicals will be twice the amount given for a solution containing 250 grams per litre of chromic acid.
Knowing the amount of sulphate radicals to use per litre of solution, it is a. simple matter to ascertain the amount of any radical which is e uivalent to a given quantity of sulphate ra icals.
If there are mixed stable radicals in the bath, the amount of each of the several radicals should equal an eqivalent amount of suliphate radicals. If there are unstable 1a icals in the bath, these should be initially included with the other radicals in the total given above, the unstable radicals being calculated as an uivalent amount of sulphate radicals. As t 1e unstable radicals disappear, their deficiency should be made u with an equivalent amount of stable radica s (sulphate for ,cxample) According to my invention, the bath may advantageously be made from commercial grades of chromic acid. This commercial acid contains a number of radicals (stable and unstable) which act as catalytic agents. The amount of these radicals is determined, and there is then added to thebath (or eliminated therefrom) enough of the catalytic agent to make the total radicals in the bath equal or equivalent to 2.5 arms of sul hate radicals. The unstable ra icals are rep aced in course of time with stable radicals.
The hydrogen film of proper thickness may be obtained over quite a range of temperatures, by suitably adjusting the currentdensity at the cathode. For temperatures of 15 C. to 40 (3., the proper film is obtained with current densities from A to 1 ampere per square inch.
The present invention accordingly rovidcs a practical, reliable and commercially available recess for electro-depositin chromium rom chromic acid solutions an a reliable and commercially ada table method of preparing the chromic aci bath or electrolyte.
