Washington, D.C., May 9—The highly touted Technical Conference at SUR/FIN 2008, which takes place at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis next month, lifts off on Monday, June 16, 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., with a program dedicated to innovations in electroless nickel.
Track I of the program launches with “Corrosion Resistance of ELV-Compliant Mid- and Low/Mid-Phosphorous Electroless Nickel,” authored by Nicole Micyus, MacDermid, Inc. In summary: Mid- and low/mid-phosphorus electroless nickel (EN) deposits exhibit good resistance to corrosive media. Due to regulations in recent years (i.e., ELV, WEEE, RoHS), many new mid- and low/mid-phosphorus EN processes have been introduced using alternative stabilizers in order to comply. Electrochemical testing is used to compare conventional and ELV-compliant mid- and low/mid-phosphorus deposits in acidic and neutral solutions. Results are compared to the corrosion resistance of high-phosphorus EN. Differences in corrosion resistance due …
