Research Abstract |
An innovative electroplating technology "Sustainable Supercritical Nanoplating (SSNP)", which is a hybrid of supercritical fluid and electroplating technology, has been developed. In this technology, electroplating reactions are carried out in emulsion of supercritical carbon dioxide (CO_2) and electroplating solution with surfactants. The plated film by this method did not have any pinholes, which come from hydrogen babbles produced by the electrolysis of water. Compared to electroplating from the solution only, higher quality nickel films have been prepared by this method, which have higher uniformity, smaller grain size (11.1nm), and significantly higher Vickers hardness. Moreover, the current efficiency and electric resistance value were measured as a function of CO_2 volume fraction in the emulsion with few kinds of surfactants. These results show that dense CO_2 beyond critical point of CO_2 is effective to form emulsion for the electroplating reaction. On the basis of the electrical conductivity measurements, the emulsion was classified into CO_2 in water(C/W) type in the wide range of the CO_2 volume fraction from 0 to 80 %. The discontinuous electrochemical reaction of the emulsion including supercritical carbon dioxide might play an important role to attain such excellent properties of the plated film.
