Definition: Electron transfer reactions
• Oxidizing agent + n e- = Reducing agent
• Oxidizing agents get reduced
• Reducing agents get oxidized
• Oxidation is a loss of electrons (OIL)
• Reduction is a gain of electrons (RIG)OILRIG

Typical steps in the electroplating of metals
1. Cleaning with organic solvent or aqueous alkaline; to remove dirt or grease.
2. Is the surface is covered by oxides as a result of corrosion, clean with acid.
3. Rinse with water to neutralise the surface.
4. Electroplate metals under controlled condition.
5. Rinse with water and dry.
6. Additional step: heat treatment in air or vacuum environment

What is the Job of the Bath?• Provides an electrolyte
– to conduct electricity, ionically
• Provides a source of the metal to be plated– as dissolved metal salts leading to metal ions
• Allows the anode reaction to take place– usually metal dissolution or oxygen evolution
• Wets the cathode work-piece– allowing good adhesion to take place
• Helps to stabilise temperature– acts as a heating/cooling bath
![Page 9: Outline Curriculum (5 lectures) Each lecture 45 minutes](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56815029550346895dbe17a7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Typically, What is in a Bath?e.g., Watts Nickel
• Ions of the metal to be plated, e.g.– Ni2+ (nickel ions) added mostly as the sulphate
• Conductive electrolyte– NiSO4, boric acid, NiCl2
• Nickel anode dissolution promoter– NiCl2 provides chloride ions
• pH buffer stops cathode getting too alkaline– Boric acid (H3BO3)
• Additives– Wetters, levellers, brighteners, stress modifiers..

Current efficiency
• pH changes accompany electrode reactions wherever H+ or OH- ions are involved.
• In acid, hydrogen evolution occurs on the surface of cathode. This will result in a localised increase in pH near the surface of the electrode.
• In acid, oxygen evolution occurs on the surface of anode. This will result in a drop of pH near the surface of the electrode.
• pH buffer stops the cathode getting too alkaline.– Boric acid (H3BO3)

Parameters that may influence the quality of electrodeposits
• Current density (low to high current)
• The nature of anions/cations in the solution
• Bath composition, temperature, fluid flow
• Type of current waveform
• the presence of impurities
• physical and chemical nature of the substrate surface

The thickness of plate depends on:
- the current (I)
- the time for which it passes (t)
- the exposed area of the work-piece (A)
- a constant (M/AzF)
which depends on the metal and the bath

Faraday’s Laws of Electrolysis: Question - Nickel Plating
Nickel is plated from a Watts bath ata current density of 3 A dm-2.
The current efficiency is 96%.The molar mass of nickel is 58.71 g mol-1.The density of nickel is 8.90 g cm-3.The Faraday constant is 96 485 C mol-1.
What will be the averaged plating thickness in 1 hour?
![Page 21: Outline Curriculum (5 lectures) Each lecture 45 minutes](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56815029550346895dbe17a7/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Faraday’s Laws of Electrolysis: Answer - Nickel Plating
Assume that the reaction is:
Ni2+ + 2e- = Ni
So, two electrons are involved for every Ni atom,and z = 2
The current density used in plating nickel is 96% of the total current, i.e., 0.96 x 3 A dm-2.
