7 Requirements
7.1 Substrate
Plastics are not intended to be plated, and when plated using the correct method, it can be confirmed that the metal coating on the plastic can meet the requirements of this standard [see 4.1k):
Surface defects caused by injection molding, such as cold head, ejection marks, flash, injection marks, parting lines, color spots and other defects, may have an adverse effect on the appearance and performance of the coating on the plastic product. Therefore, the electroplating party is not responsible for these surface defects caused by plastic processing, unless the electroplating party is a plastic molding processor, or the electroplating technical requirements should include appropriate restrictions on the acceptable level of surface defects caused by the injection molding process.
7.2 Appearance
The entire main surface shall be free from obvious visible plating defects such as blistering, pitting, rough cracking, missing plating, dirt or discoloration. The extent of defects on non-main surfaces shall be specified. For unavoidable fixture marks on the main surface, their locations shall be specified. The appearance and color shall be consistent with the approved sample (see 4.1h) and ISO 163481. 7.3 Copper or nickel base coating thickness
The minimum local thickness of the copper base coating shall be 15 μm. The minimum local thickness of the nickel base coating shall be 2 μm (see 4.1f) and ISO 163481. 7.4 Local thickness
The layer thickness specified in the marking shall be the minimum local thickness. The minimum local thickness of the coating shall be the position of the red dot on the main surface that can be touched by a ball with a point diameter of 20 mm. Measurement. The coating thickness shall be measured by the force method specified in Appendix F. 7.5 Ductility
When measured in accordance with the method specified in the record, the minimum ductility of copper, dp nickel and semi-bright nickel shall be 8%. There shall be no cracks on the raised surface of the test sample. Small cracks at the edge shall not cause failure. 7.6 Thermal Cycle Test
The thermal cycle test is used to evaluate the bonding strength of plastic coatings and monitor the effectiveness of pretreatment for plastic electroplating. When selecting the use condition number and thermal cycle requirements When making requirements, the amplitude of temperature fluctuations during operation should be considered: Table A.1 in Appendix A gives the temperature limit corresponding to each use condition.
According to the thermal cycle test specified in Appendix AA.3, after 3 cycles, the coating of the component should not have defects that can be observed by the naked eye or corrected vision, such as lifting, blistering, peeling, pitting or deformation. Note: The use of thermal cycle test can replace the adhesion strength test that needs to be carried out. 7.7 Accelerated corrosion test
Plastic coatings should be subjected to CASS test at least 21 hours after the completion of electroplating in accordance with the provisions of GB/T19125. Table G.1 in Appendix G shows the test cycle corresponding to the specified use condition number. Note: The test cycle specified in Table (.1) provides a method to control the continuity and quality of the coating, which is inevitably related to the performance or life of the finished product in actual use.
According to the agreement between the purchaser and the supplier, the cycle specified in Table G.1 in Appendix ( can be continuous or at intervals of 1h-16h. h is equivalent to a test period of 8 h or 1 th h. GB/T12600-2005/IS04525:2003 Liu Each product tested should be in accordance with C:.The protection rating required by Work 661 can be used to indicate the degree of protection of the chrome coating on the plastic substrate exposed by the corrosion accumulation of the copper or nickel base coating. Alternatively, a rating number only indicates the appearance of the workpiece after the corrosion test. According to this standard, the appearance rating after the corrosion test should not be less than 8h. Note: During the reverse layer test, the surface of the plated part may be deteriorated. 7.8 Thermal Cycle and Accelerated Corrosion Test
For electroplated parts requiring use conditions No. 5, 1 and 3, the corrosion test can be carried out in conjunction with the thermal cycle test. For electroplated parts requiring use conditions No. 3 and 4, 3 cycles are required; for electroplated parts requiring use condition No. 3, 2 cycles are required. According to the requirements of Appendix (1), the defects of the electroplated parts should be checked after each thermal cycle corrosion test. Note: The use of the combined thermal cycle and corrosion test method can replace the separate tests specified in 7.6 and 7.7. 7.9 STEP test requirements
When the pressure is specified, the potential difference of each single nickel electrode in the multi-layer nickel is determined according to the STEP test method. In the three-layer nickel, the potential difference between the high-active nickel layer and the bright nickel layer in the STEP range is from 15 mV to ~ mV, the high active layer (positive) is always more active than the bright nickel layer. The STEP potential difference between the thin nickel layer immediately below the chrome plating (such as micro cracks or micro cracks) and the bright nickel layer is between 0mV30V, and the bright nickel layer (positive) is always more active than the thin nickel layer immediately before the chrome plating. Note that although there is generally no recognized STEP value, there are some recognized range requirements. For example, the SIFP potential difference between semi-bright and bright layers is between 130mV~-230mV, and the semi-bright nickel (negative) is always more active than the bright nickel layer. 8 Sampling
The sampling method shall be selected in accordance with the procedures specified in (GB/T 2609. The acceptance requirements shall be specified by the purchaser [see 4.1i]. 9 Test methods
Except for the test force method specified in Appendix E and Appendix, all test methods shall be carried out at least 24 hours after the completion of electroplating. GB/T 12600--2005/1S04525:2003A.1 Instruments

Ductility test
The method for preparing a plated test specimen of 150 mm in length, 10 μm in width and 1 mm in thickness is as follows. Polishing: Prepare a soft sheet of 50 mm in length and width. Plate one side of the specimen with 25 μm thick nickel (or copper) in the same bath as the workpiece and under the same process conditions. Score the specimen with a scriber. Score at least the length of the plated side of the specimen, carefully and away from the edge to the edge or chamfer. C.2 Process
Bend the specimen under tension while electroplating, and apply pressure steadily along a diameter of 11.5 mm. The mandrel bends the specimen 180° until the two ends of the specimen are parallel. During the bending process, ensure that the specimen is always in contact with the mandrel: C.3 Calculation of the value
If no crack passes through the protruding surface of the specimen, the elongation of the coating is greater than 8, and is calculated according to the formula: F 100 XT/D+T
In the formula:
——Elongation expressed in terms of ratio,
T——Total thickness of base metal and coating;
Diameter of the mandrel
When calculating, D and D The same unit shall be used. For comparison purposes, all test samples shall maintain approximately the same coating and total thickness. This method is consistent with the method described in GB/T15821. 8

Determination of sulfur content in nickel coating
GB/T12600-2005/IS04525:2003 When necessary, the nickel coating shall be tested by The sulfur content is measured by burning the sample in the gas flow of a furnace. The sulfur dioxide gas released during combustion is absorbed by acidified potassium iodide starch solution. Then, potassium iodate solution is used for titration. This potassium iodide solution is newly calibrated with a standard sample containing sulfur to compensate for the change of sulfur dioxide recovery over time. Experiments should be carried out to compensate for the influence of factors such as sulfur dioxide and accelerators. The sulfur content of the nickel coating is determined by the method, represented by S, and the standard is between 0.005% and 0.5% by mass. Note: A commercial instrument has been developed, which uses infrared and thermal conductivity measurement methods to determine the sulfur dioxide emitted by combustion, and then uses a computer to directly read the total content.
.2 Sulfide-iodate titration test plate
is a method for determining the sulfur content in electroplated nickel. It is treated with hydrochloric acid containing chloroplatinic acid as a lamp lysis accelerator to convert the sulfur in the nickel layer into hydrogen sulfide. Chlorine sulfide reacts with zinc aminosulfate to generate zinc sulfide. The generated zinc sulfide is titrated with a standard volume of potassium iodate solution, and the sulfur content is calculated based on potassium iodate.1 Preparation of test specimens
