Abstract

See full text

A nickel plating bath for plating a semi-bright nickel deposit on a substrate comprising a) nickel sulfateions; b) a soluble salt of chloroacefic acid, acetic acid, glycolic acid, proprionic acid, benzoic acid, salicylic acid or chlorobenzoic acid; and c) at least one diol selected from the group consisting of hexyne diol, butyne diol and combinations of the foregoing. The semi-bright nickel plating bath described herein produces sulfur-free semi-bright deposits over a very wide current density range. The plating bath described herein is at least substantially free of coumarin and produces desirable leveling characteristics. The bath also requires no aldehydes to achieve simultaneous thickness and electrolytic potential (STEP) and has extremely low stress and excellent ductility.
