Electroplating of Plastic Products (Part two)

1.3 Selective electroplating plastic processing technology
To ensure the quality of electroplating plastic products, it is very important to adopt selective electroplating plastic processing technology. The so-called selective electroplating of plastics mainly refers to selective electroplating in plastic products, which is also often called partial electroplating. The use of reasonable selective electroplating plastic processing technology can effectively ensure the quality of electroplating and improve the work efficiency of relevant staff. In addition, to ensure better control of the plating solution level, insulating glue can be sprayed on scattered parts of plastic products so as to effectively ensure the quality of electroplating plastic products.
 
In addition, for a section with a large conductive area, the staff can plate a layer of metal on the upper part of the plated part, and perform the corresponding pre-plating. As we all know, the surface density of plastic parts is small. To ensure the contact area in the electroplating process, it is necessary to combine the electroplating conditions of the plastic parts to prevent them from floating. In the process of electroplating plastic products, the staff must also strictly control the current density. Normally, the current density should not be greater than 0.5A/dm2 to ensure that the plastic surface will not be ablated.
 
The selective electroplating plastic processing technology can ensure the smooth development of metallization activities, and the corresponding electroplating is carried out for the parts that need special decoration to ensure better control of electroplating costs. In the electroplating process, the staff needs to apply a large number of chemical catalysts on the surface of the electroplated plastic, and apply an appropriate amount of paint. To ensure better electroplating of plastic products, the staff can choose a reasonable spraying method and perform the corresponding brushing. In addition, for the polymer on the plastic surface, the staff needs to perform a corresponding activation treatment and use reasonable metals for treatment.
 
In the process of electroplating, it is necessary to select reasonable metal ions to ensure that the metal ions can be better attached to the polymer. In general, the quality of electroplated plastic products can be effectively improved by spraying a certain amount of metal ions on the upper part of the polymer coating film. In the actual work, the staff can also spray a large amount of metal salt solution and perform the corresponding electroplating to ensure that the thickness of the electroplated layer is within the specified range.
 
2. Conclusion
In summary, analyzing the requirements for electroplating on plastic products, the new direct catalytic electroplating plastic processing technology and selective electroplating plastic processing technology can effectively ensure better utilization of resources and improve the production quality of plastic products. However, the relevant staff will still encounter many problems in actual work. This requires the staff to continue to learn advanced electroplating processing technology for plastic products and improve their professional skills based on the original to effectively improve the market competition of related enterprises.
