Description
本発明は、無電解ニッケルめっきの技術に関し、特に応力が低いニッケルめっき皮膜を形成することが可能な無電解ニッケルめっき浴、およびそれを用いた無電解ニッケルめっき法に関する。 The present invention relates to a technique for electroless nickel plating, and particularly to an electroless nickel plating bath capable of forming a nickel plating film with low stress, and an electroless nickel plating method using the same.
無電解ニッケルめっき浴には、めっき液の安定性の向上、めっき外観や付きまわり性の改善などを目的として、有機および/または無機添加剤をめっき液中に添加することが多い。一般的に、有機添加剤を適度な濃度で添加すると、液安定性、析出速度およびめっき外観などを向上させることができるが、その一方でめっき皮膜の応力は増加する。また、めっき直後は低応力であっても、経日的にめっき皮膜の応力が増加することもある。めっき皮膜の応力の増加は、めっき処理した製品に反りやクラックを生じさせる原因となる。そのため、めっき皮膜の応力はなるべく低くなるようにすることが望ましい。 In an electroless nickel plating bath, organic and / or inorganic additives are often added to the plating solution for the purpose of improving the stability of the plating solution, improving the appearance of plating and throwing power. Generally, when an organic additive is added at an appropriate concentration, the liquid stability, the deposition rate, the plating appearance, and the like can be improved, while the stress of the plating film increases. Moreover, even if the stress is low immediately after plating, the stress of the plating film may increase over time. An increase in the stress of the plating film causes warpage and cracks in the plated product. Therefore, it is desirable to make the stress of the plating film as low as possible.
特許文献1には、無電解ニッケルめっき浴にモリブデンを適量添加することにより、ニッケル皮膜内部の応力が下がることが開示されている。特許文献2には、水溶性ニッケル塩、還元剤、モリブデンおよびアンチモンを含む無電解ニッケルめっき浴は、有害物質である鉛などを含まずとも、液安定性、析出速度およびめっき外観などに優れていることが開示されている。特許文献3には、アルミニウムまたはアルミニウム合金に無電解ニッケルめっき皮膜を形成する際に、めっき浴として水溶性のアンチモン化合物またはビスマス化合物を金属として0.01〜100ppm含有する無電解ニッケルめっき浴を用いると、微小ノジュールを少なくする点から有効であることが開示されている。ただし、特許文献2および3は、得られためっき皮膜の応力に関しては何ら言及していない。 Patent Document 1 discloses that the stress inside the nickel coating is reduced by adding an appropriate amount of molybdenum to the electroless nickel plating bath. In Patent Document 2, an electroless nickel plating bath containing a water-soluble nickel salt, a reducing agent, molybdenum, and antimony is excellent in liquid stability, deposition rate, plating appearance, and the like, even without containing lead as a harmful substance. Is disclosed. Patent Document 3 uses an electroless nickel plating bath containing 0.01 to 100 ppm of a water-soluble antimony compound or bismuth compound as a metal when forming an electroless nickel plating film on aluminum or an aluminum alloy. It is disclosed that it is effective from the viewpoint of reducing minute nodules. However, Patent Documents 2 and 3 do not mention anything about the stress of the obtained plating film.

1.実験手順
基材として銅板(50×25mm2)と、市販のBeCu材テストストリップ(めっき有効面積76×10mm2)とを用意した。銅板は次の手順で前処理した:1)60℃で5分間アルカリ脱脂(NaOH8g/L、クエン酸ナトリウム10g/L、ナロアクティーN−120(三洋化成工業社製)2g/L)、2)室温で1分間酸活性(10%硫酸)、3)室温で1分間0.1g/LのPdCl2溶液で処理。テストストリップは次の手順で前処理した:1)室温で5分間酸脱脂(PB−242D(荏原ユージライト社製))、2)室温で1分間酸活性(10%硫酸)、3)室温で5分間0.1g/LのPdCl2溶液で処理。前処理後の各基材に、無補給で30分間めっきし、析出速度とめっき皮膜応力を測定した。
1. Experimental procedure A copper plate (50 × 25 mm 2 ) and a commercially available BeCu material test strip (plating effective area 76 × 10 mm 2 ) were prepared as substrates. The copper plate was pretreated by the following procedure: 1) Alkaline degreasing at 60 ° C. for 5 minutes (NaOH 8 g / L, sodium citrate 10 g / L, NAROACTY N-120 (manufactured by Sanyo Chemical Industries) 2 g / L), 2) 1 min at room temperature the acid activity (10% sulfuric acid), 3) PdCl 2 solution treated at room temperature for 1 minute 0.1 g / L. The test strips were pretreated by the following procedure: 1) Acid degreasing for 5 minutes at room temperature (PB-242D (Sugawara Eugleite)), 2) 1 minute acid activity at room temperature (10% sulfuric acid), 3) At room temperature Treat with 0.1 g / L PdCl 2 solution for 5 minutes. Each substrate after pretreatment was plated for 30 minutes without replenishment, and the deposition rate and plating film stress were measured.
析出速度は、精密天秤を用いて測定しためっき前後の銅板の重量差に基づいて算出しためっき膜厚(皮膜密度は7.85g/cm3とした)とめっき時間から求めた。めっき皮膜応力は、めっき後のテストストリップの両脚の先端をスケールに触れない程度にストリップ式電着応力試験器(683ECアナライザー、エレクトロケミカル社製)にセットし、両脚間の特殊スケール目盛の合計値(開脚度)を読み、Sを応力(MPa)、Tを膜厚(μm)、Uを開脚度、KをテストストリップのファクターとしてS=58.2×UK/Tの計算式に代入して求めた。 The deposition rate was determined from the plating film thickness (film density was 7.85 g / cm 3 ) calculated based on the weight difference between the copper plates before and after plating measured using a precision balance and the plating time. The plating film stress is set on a strip-type electrodeposition stress tester (683EC analyzer, manufactured by Electrochemical Co., Ltd.) so that the tips of both legs of the test strip after plating do not touch the scale. Read (leg), substituting into S = 58.2 × UK / T, where S is stress (MPa), T is film thickness (μm), U is the degree of spread, and K is a factor of the test strip. And asked.
2.錯化剤の濃度と組み合わせの検討
表1に記載した条件に従ってめっきを行い、錯化剤の組み合わせおよび錯化剤濃度の最適条件を検討した。
2. Examination of Complexing Agent Concentration and Combination Plating was performed according to the conditions described in Table 1, and the optimum conditions for the complexing agent combination and the complexing agent concentration were examined.
表2は、錯化剤として、リンゴ酸と、コハク酸、乳酸、酢酸またはグリシンとを50:50のキレートモル比で用いためっき浴による結果である(表中、「as plate」とはめっき直後を意味し、比はキレートモル比である)。 Table 2 shows the results obtained by a plating bath using malic acid and succinic acid, lactic acid, acetic acid or glycine as a complexing agent in a chelate molar ratio of 50:50 (in the table, “as plate” means immediately after plating). And the ratio is the chelate molar ratio).
錯化剤として、リンゴ酸とコハク酸の組み合わせ、またはリンゴ酸と酢酸の組み合わせを用いためっき浴は、析出速度が比較的速く、めっき皮膜の応力も比較的低かった(めっき皮膜の応力は(−)は圧縮応力を、(+)は引っ張り応力をそれぞれ示している)。ただし、リンゴ酸と酢酸の組み合わせを用いためっき浴では、総錯化剤濃度が高くなると応力が引っ張り側に移行する傾向がみられた。一方、リンゴ酸とコハク酸の組み合わせを用いた場合は、そのような傾向はみられなかった。総錯化剤濃度は、0.8cM/Lとした際、最も析出速度が速かった。総合的にみて、錯化剤としてリンゴ酸とコハク酸を50:50のキレートモル比で用い、総錯化剤濃度を0.8cM/Lとするのが最良であると判断された。 A plating bath using a combination of malic acid and succinic acid or a combination of malic acid and acetic acid as a complexing agent has a relatively high deposition rate and a relatively low stress of the plating film (the stress of the plating film is ( -) Indicates compressive stress, and (+) indicates tensile stress). However, in the plating bath using a combination of malic acid and acetic acid, when the total complexing agent concentration was high, the stress tended to shift to the tensile side. On the other hand, such a tendency was not observed when a combination of malic acid and succinic acid was used. When the total complexing agent concentration was 0.8 cM / L, the precipitation rate was the fastest. Overall, it was determined that it would be best to use malic acid and succinic acid as the complexing agent in a chelate molar ratio of 50:50 and a total complexing agent concentration of 0.8 cM / L.
表3は、総錯化剤濃度を0.8cM/Lに固定し、種々の錯化剤の50:50の比の組み合わせについて析出速度、めっき直後の皮膜応力、および熱処理した後の皮膜応力を調べた結果である。なお、熱処理は、数日〜十数日経過した際のめっき皮膜の状態をシミュレートするための加速劣化試験のためのものである。リンゴ酸を含む組み合わせ、およびコハク酸と乳酸の組み合わせは熱処理後の皮膜応力が低かった。しかし、リンゴ酸と乳酸、およびリンゴ酸とグリシンの組み合わせは析出速度が遅かった。リンゴ酸とコハク酸、リンゴ酸と酢酸、およびコハク酸と乳酸の組み合わせが、析出速度およびめっき皮膜応力の観点から優れていると判断された。ただし、酢酸はキレート力が弱くめっき速度促進剤として作用するため、酢酸を使用すると、析出速度が早くなる一方で、めっき浴の安定性が低下する。老化時は、新建浴時とは異なり、副生成物や蓄積物が液中に増えるため、より浴安定性が低下しやすい。その上、酢酸には臭気の問題もある。従って、錯化剤としてはリンゴ酸とコハク酸またはコハク酸と乳酸の組み合わせが好ましいと判断された。 Table 3 shows the precipitation rate, film stress immediately after plating, and film stress after heat treatment for a combination of 50:50 ratios of various complexing agents with the total complexing agent concentration fixed at 0.8 cM / L. It is the result of investigation. The heat treatment is for an accelerated deterioration test for simulating the state of the plating film when several days to several tens of days have passed. The combination containing malic acid and the combination of succinic acid and lactic acid had low film stress after heat treatment. However, the combination of malic acid and lactic acid and malic acid and glycine had a slow precipitation rate. The combination of malic acid and succinic acid, malic acid and acetic acid, and succinic acid and lactic acid was judged to be excellent from the viewpoints of deposition rate and plating film stress. However, since acetic acid has a weak chelating power and acts as a plating rate accelerator, the use of acetic acid increases the deposition rate while lowering the stability of the plating bath. When aging, unlike the new construction bath, by-products and accumulations increase in the liquid, bath stability is more likely to decrease. In addition, acetic acid has odor problems. Therefore, it was judged that the complexing agent is preferably malic acid and succinic acid or a combination of succinic acid and lactic acid.
3.錯化剤の混合比率の検討
表1に記載した条件に従ってめっきを行い、錯化剤の混合比率の最適条件を検討した。表4は、好ましい錯化剤の組み合わせであると判断されたリンゴ酸とコハク酸の混合比率を種々変更して、析出速度、めっき直後の皮膜応力、および熱処理した後の皮膜応力を調べた結果である(表中、比はキレートモル比である)。
3. Examination of the mixing ratio of the complexing agent Plating was performed according to the conditions described in Table 1, and the optimum conditions for the mixing ratio of the complexing agent were examined. Table 4 shows the results of investigating the deposition rate, the film stress immediately after plating, and the film stress after heat treatment by variously changing the mixing ratio of malic acid and succinic acid judged to be a preferable combination of complexing agents. (In the table, the ratio is the chelate molar ratio).
コハク酸の比率が高くなるにつれて、析出速度は速くなり、応力は引っ張り側に移行する傾向がみられた。リンゴ酸とコハク酸のキレートモル比は50:50とするのが最も好ましいと判断された。総錯化剤濃度は、やはり0.8cM/Lとするのが最良であった。 As the succinic acid ratio increased, the deposition rate increased and the stress tended to shift to the tensile side. It was judged that the chelate molar ratio of malic acid and succinic acid was most preferably 50:50. The total complexing agent concentration was still best at 0.8 cM / L.
4.安定剤の検討
表5に記載した条件に従ってめっきを行い、最適な安定剤の種類と量を検討した。
4). Study of Stabilizer Plating was performed according to the conditions described in Table 5, and the optimum type and amount of stabilizer were examined.
表6は、安定剤としてビスマス(硝酸ビスマス)、アンチモン(塩化アンチモン(III))、またはチオ尿素を用いためっき浴、あるいは市販のめっき浴(エピタスNPR−18、上村工業製)を使用した際の析出速度、めっき直後の皮膜応力、および熱処理した後の皮膜応力を調べた結果である。(ビスマス、アンチモンの濃度は、それぞれBi、Sbとしてのものである。)安定剤としてビスマスおよびチオ尿素を用いた場合、安定剤無添加の場合と比較して、浴安定性の向上、めっき皮膜の外観向上、析出速度の向上などの効果がみられたが、熱処理後の皮膜応力が高くなった。一方、安定剤としてアンチモンを使用した場合、熱処理後の皮膜応力が、他の安定剤を用いためっき浴および市販のめっき浴を用いた場合と比較して顕著に低くなった。 Table 6 shows that when a plating bath using bismuth (bismuth nitrate), antimony (antimony (III) chloride), or thiourea as a stabilizer, or a commercially available plating bath (Epitus NPR-18, manufactured by Uemura Kogyo Co., Ltd.) is used. This is a result of investigating the deposition rate, film stress immediately after plating, and film stress after heat treatment. (The concentrations of bismuth and antimony are those of Bi and Sb, respectively.) When bismuth and thiourea are used as stabilizers, the bath stability is improved compared to the case where no stabilizer is added, and the plating film. However, the film stress after heat treatment became high. On the other hand, when antimony was used as the stabilizer, the film stress after the heat treatment was remarkably lowered as compared with the case of using a plating bath using another stabilizer and a commercially available plating bath.
表7は、安定剤としてモリブデン(モリブデン酸ナトリウム二水和物、Na2MoO4・2H2O)を用いためっき浴を使用した際の結果である。モリブデンを用いた場合では、熱処理後の皮膜応力を低下する効果は観察されなかった。また、モリブデンの量を増やすと、ニッケルが析出せずめっき浴として機能しなかった。 Table 7 shows the results when a plating bath using molybdenum (sodium molybdate dihydrate, Na 2 MoO 4 .2H 2 O) as a stabilizer was used. In the case of using molybdenum, the effect of reducing the film stress after the heat treatment was not observed. Further, when the amount of molybdenum was increased, nickel did not precipitate and did not function as a plating bath.
表8は、安定剤としてアンチモン(酒石酸アンチモニル(III)カリウム・三水和物、C8H4K2O12Sb2・3H2O)とモリブデン(モリブデン酸ナトリウム二水和物、Na2MoO4・2H2O)の混合物を用いためっき浴を使用した際の結果である。アンチモンとモリブデンを混合した場合では望ましい結果は得られなかった。 Table 8, antimony stabilizer (tartrate Anchimoniru (III) potassium trihydrate, C 8 H 4 K 2 O 12 Sb 2 · 3H 2 O) and molybdenum (sodium molybdate dihydrate, Na 2 MoO 4 is a · 2H 2 O) results when using the mixture of the plating bath used for. When antimony and molybdenum were mixed, the desired result was not obtained.
4.安定剤使用時の錯化剤の混合比率の検討
表9に記載した条件に従ってめっきを行い、安定剤としてアンチモン(酒石酸アンチモニル(III)カリウム・三水和物)を使用した場合における、最適な錯化剤の種類と量を検討した。
4). Examination of mixing ratio of complexing agent when using stabilizer The optimal complex when plating is performed according to the conditions described in Table 9 and antimony (potassium antimonyl (III) potassium tartrate trihydrate) is used as a stabilizer. The type and amount of agent were examined.
表10は、好ましい錯化剤の組み合わせであると判断されたリンゴ酸とコハク酸の混合比率を種々変更して、析出速度、めっき直後の皮膜応力、および熱処理した後の皮膜応力を調べた結果である(表中、比はキレートモル比である)。 Table 10 shows the results of examining the deposition rate, the film stress immediately after plating, and the film stress after heat treatment by variously changing the mixing ratio of malic acid and succinic acid, which was judged to be a preferable combination of complexing agents. (In the table, the ratio is the chelate molar ratio).
安定剤(アンチモン)を使用した場合でも、リンゴ酸に対するコハク酸の混合比率が高まるにつれて析出速度の増加、引っ張り応力への移行傾向が観察された。また、還元剤の濃度が高いほど析出速度は増加し、応力にもあまり影響がなかったものの、めっき浴の安定性が低下した。リンゴ酸:コハク酸=49:51、還元剤濃度を0.175mol/Lとするのが最も好ましいと判断された。 Even when a stabilizer (antimony) was used, an increase in precipitation rate and a tendency to shift to tensile stress were observed as the mixing ratio of succinic acid to malic acid increased. In addition, the higher the concentration of the reducing agent, the higher the deposition rate, and although there was not much influence on the stress, the stability of the plating bath decreased. It was judged that malic acid: succinic acid = 49: 51 and the reducing agent concentration was most preferably 0.175 mol / L.
