Abstract: | In order to get foam zinc materials of porous metal electrode, a novel method for preparing foam zinc was proposed, in which
the polyurethane foam with diameter of 0.3 mm as substrate was processed by degreasing, roughening, activating, electroless
plating and electrodeposition. The main factors affecting the process, such as ZnSO4 content, temperature, pH value, current density, and electrodes distance, were investigated comprehensively. The optimal
process conditions are 250 g/L ZnSO4, 20 g/L Al2(SO4)3, 40 g/L KAl(SO4)2, 30 g/L Na2SO4, pH=3.5, 4.0 cm of electrodes distance and 0.04 A/cm2 current density at 30 °C. The result shows that adding ultrasonic on the process can elevate the deepening plating ability
and current efficiency. Foam zinc material with a high porosity of 92.2% and a three-dimensional network structure can be
fabricated by electrodeposition. |
