Abstract

Abstract A process for electrodepositing solder on a basis material from an aqueous, acidic bath comprising stannous and plumbous compounds, o-toluidine or a 2-alkyl anil as a brightening agent and a non-ionic surface-active agent as a dispersant, to obtain a super-bright solder coating on the basis material.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 135 words
A process for electroplating onto a basis material with a bright solder of a 60 percent tin and 40 percent lead alloy which comprises electrodepositing the solder on the basis material from an aqueous acidic bath comprising (1) stannous borofluoride and plumbous borofluoride, (2) 70 g./l. of free HBF4, (3) 10 ml./l. of formalin, (4) 20 ml/l of a 50 percent solution of O-toluidine in n-butyl alcohol as a brightener, and (5) 2 ml./l. of a mixture of wherein R is an alkyl group having eight or nine carbon atoms and n is an integer of 8 to 15 and wherein R is an alkyl group having 12 to 18 carbon atoms and n and n1 are an integer of 0 to 20 in the ratio of 1:1, with a current density of 2 A./dm2.
