アルカリジンケート浴からの亜鉛の電析挙動とその結晶形態に及ぼす有機添加剤の構造の影響

Abstract

The effect of structure of organic additives on the electrodeposition behavior of Zn from alkaline zincate solution and its crystal morphology was investigated. Zn was electrodeposited on an Fe electrode at 20-1000 A•m −2 , 2.4 × 10 4 C•m −2 , 300 K from unagitated zincate solutions containing the various organic additives as a leveling agent. The suppression effect of additives on the charge transfer and diffusion of ZnO 2 2− ions in Zn electrodeposition corresponded to the number of adsorption site per a straight chain molecule of polymer. The effect of polymer alone on the decrease in size of Zn platelets crystals was small, but the crystal size significantly decreased with coexistence of low molecular additive. The crystal size of deposited Zn decreased in spite of small suppression effect on Zn deposition, showing that the crystal size of deposited Zn doesn't depend on the overpotential for deposition. With coexistence of low molecular additive with polymer, the crystal of deposited Zn was fine regardless of kind of polymer even though Zn deposited at the diffusion control of ZnO 2 2− ions.
