Abstract (en)
The electroplating process for the deposition of a yellow gold alloy on an electrode immersed in a bath comprising a gold metal (1-10 g/l), an organometallic compound, a wetting agent, a chelating agent and a free cyanide, is claimed. The metal alloy includes copper (78.31 wt.%), and silver (0.16 wt.%), and a content of gold is 21.53 wt.%. A concentration of the wetting agent is 0.05-10 ml/l. A temperature of the bath is maintained at 50-90[deg] C, and a pH of the bath is 8-12. The process is carried out at a current density of 0.05-1.5 A.dm -> 2>. An independent claim is included for an electroplating device.
Abstract (fr)
L'invention se rapporte à un procédé de dépôt galvanoplastique d'un alliage d'or sur une électrode plongée dans un bain comportant de l'or métal, des composés organométalliques, un mouillant, un complexant, du cyanure libre, les métaux d'alliage sont du cuivre métal et de l'argent métal permettant de déposer sur l'électrode un alliage d'or du type jaune miroir brillant. Selon l'invention, le bain respecte une proportion en masse d'environ 21,53% d'or, 78,31 % de cuivre et 0,16% d'argent. L'invention concerne le domaine des dépôts galvaniques.
