Effect of ultrasonic agitation on the contact properties was studied in Ni electroless plating and Pd activation. P-type Si bare wafers were used as substrate and DMAB was used as reducing agent due to its good electrical properties, solderability and compatibility to substrate. In activation, high density Pd nuclei of small size were formed during ultra-sonic agitation compared to that of no stirring. In electroless plating, the plating rate was enhanced by 30∼90% by using ultrasonic agitation. In elecrtoless plating, inhibitor is the most effective additives in ultrasonic agitation. In this experi-ment, thiourea was used as inhibitor. The less the amount of the inhibitor, the more ultrasonic agitation efficiency. It is confirmed by SEM that Ni-B films formed by ultrasonic were coarser, less porous, and denser than those of no stirring. In ultrasonic agitation, boron content of the films was more than those of no stirring. In this case, the more DMAB concentration, the higher the temperature, the less pH, the more boron content. Resistivity of the films formed by ultrasonic agitation was higher than that of no strirring. As the content of boron was increased, the resistivity of the films was increased exponentially.

In this study, the functional property as a super abrasive material was secured for CBN powder by the electroless Ni-P plating on the surface of the particle. The plating solution has been prepared to control the surface morphology by regulating surfactants and process conditions. The effects of processing parameters on the surface morphology of CBN powder was discussed. The results are summarized as follows; A stable plating tendency was achieved from 1 hour after quantitatively dropping reducing agent. It was observed that more than 50% of the weight gain was obtained by Ni-P coating on the surface of CBN super abrasive powder. The morphology of the Ni-P coating layer is consisted of botryoidal and spiky type and it could be controlled by regulating processing parameters. Superior characteristic in terms of surface morphology was found in the nonionic surfactant XL-80N. It was found that XL-80N considerably decreased surface tension of CBN powder and Ni-P alloy surface then enhance wettability as well as plating rate. Metal coated CBN powder as a raw material of resin bond wheel has been developed through this investigation.

Ionic Polymer metal composite(IPMC), one of new actuation materials of EAPs is fabricated by electroless plating of platinum on both sides of the perfluorosulfonic acid film or Nafion film and its electromechanical characteristics are investigated. The IPMC strip bends towards anode under electrical field. As the number of plating cycle increases, the distance between plated platinum electrodes on both sides of Nafion membrane decreases and also the displacement is almost inversely proportional to the number of plating. The displacement of IPMC strip depends on voltage magnitude and applied signal frequency and its maximum deformation is observed at a critical frequency, resonant frequency. Low pressure sandblasting is used for surface treatment of Nafion membrane and at 8 times of plating cycle produced actuator with high displacement performance. For more efficiency of fabricated IPMC, it is useful to add one or two surface developing step which is the second reduction process using hydrazine.

With Increasing importance of electroless nickel plating technology in many fields such as electronic and automobile industries, the treatment of the spent baths is becoming a serious problem. These spent baths contain iron and zinc as impurities, organic acids as complexing reagents, and phosphonate ions as oxidized species of tile reducing reagent. as well as several grams per liter of nickel. The spent baths are currently treated by conventional precipitation method. but a mettled with no sludge generation is desired. This work aims at establishing a recycling process of nickel from tile spent baths using solvent extraction. Extraction behaviors of nickel. iron. and zinc in various 쇼pes of real spent baths are investigated as a function of pH using LIX841, di (2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (D2EHPA), and PC88A as tile extractants. Nickel is extracted by LIX84I at the equilibrium pH of more than 6 with high efficiency. For the weakly acid baths. iron and zinc are extracted by D2EHPA or PC88A without adjusting the pH of the baths leaving nickel in the aqueous phase. Stripping of nickel from LIX84I with sulfuric acid is also investigated. It is shown that concentrated nickel sulfate solution (> 100 ㎏-Ni/㎥) is obtained. This solution can be reused in the electroless plating process. Based on these findings, flow sheets for recovering nickel from the spent baths are proposed.

It is well knownthat electroledd plating is the desirable surface treatment method which is being widely used to all kinds of material such as requiring corrosing resistance, wear resistance and conductivity, especially nonconductivity materials' surface plating. However, it is suggested that there are some problems that must be solved, for exaple, rate of plating, corrosion resistance, thickness of plating film etc. Therefore in this paper, when electroless nickel plating was performed on the PZT(Pb(Zr,Ti))with varying of solution composition such as NaOH, and $H_2NCH_2COOH$, the effect of the rate of plating and corrosion resistance were investigated.

Electroless nickel plating on porous carbon substrate for the application of MCFC electrodes was investigated. Acidic and alkaline bath were used for the electroless nickel plating. The pore sizes of carbon substrates were 16-20 ${\mu}m$ and over 20 ${\mu}m$. The carbon surface was changed from hydrophobic to hydrophilic after immersing the substrate in an ammonia solution for 40 min at $60^{\circ}C$. The contact angle of water was decreased from $85^{\circ}C$ to less than $20^{\circ}$ after ammonia pretreatment. The deposition rate in the alkaline bath was higher than that in the acidic bath. The deposition rate was increased with increasing pH in both acidic and alkaline bath. The content of phosphorous in nickel deposit was decreased with increasing pH in both acidic and alkaline bath. The contents of phosphorous is low in alkaline bath. The minimum concentration of $PdCl_2$ for the electroless nickel plating was 10 ppm in alkaline bath and 5 ppm in acidic bath. The thickness of nickel was not affected by the concentration of $PdCl_2$.

Metalization technology of the fine patterns by electroless plating is required in place of electrodeposition as high-density printed circuit boards (PCB) become indispensable with the miniaturization of electronic components. Electroless nickel plating is a suitable diffusion barrier between conductor metals, such as Al and Cu, and solder is essetional in electronic packaging in order to sustain a long period of service. Moreover, Electroless nickel has particular characteristics including non-magnetic property, amorphous structure, wear resistance, corrosion protection and thermal stability.

본 연구는 교정용 선재의 직경을 증가시키기 위한 방법으로 무전해도금법의 이용 가능성 여부를 전기도금법과의 비교를 통해 알아보고자 시행되었다. 0.016 인치 스테인레스 스틸 교정용 선재에 도금을 위한 전처리를 시행한 후, 시중에 판매되는 무전해니켈도금액($Hessonic-Gr^{(R)}$, 신풍금속, 한국)을 사용하여 $90^{\circ}C$ 온도에서 0.018 인치 직경이 될 때까지 도금을 시행하였다. 무전해도금 과정 중 시간에 따른 직경증가율을 구하는 한편, 도금 후 세 지점의 직경을 계측하여 균일성을 평가하였다. 도금 금속의 정성분석을 위하여 X-선 회절분석을 시행하는 한편, 물성검사를 시행한 후 전기도금한 경우와 각각 비교 분석하였다. 연구결과 무전해도금한 군이 전기도금을 시행한 군보다 강성, 항복강도, 극한강도 모두 높은 경향을 보였으며 강성과 극한강도에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 나타내었다 (p<0.05). 또한 무전해도금한 군의 직경증가율은 $0.00461{\pm}0.00003mm/5min$ (0.00092 mm/min)로, 전기도금한 군의 직경증가율 $0.00821{\pm}0.00015mm/min$와 차이를 보였다. 도금 후 세 지점의 직경을 계측하여 균으성을 평가한 결과, 두 가지 도금법 모두에서 균일한 양상을 보였다. 이상의 결과로 무전해도금법을 통해 직경이 증가된 선재가 전기도금 법에 의해 직경이 증가된 선재보다 기존의 선재와 가까운 물성을 보임을 알 수 있었으며, 이의 임상적 적응을 위해서는 도금시간의 감소가 필요함을 알 수 있었다.
