Abstract

The present invention relates to a chemical plating method for preparing a composite metal-ceramic film. In the method, a composite ceramic film for decorating metal active components, which is obtained by utilizing an in-situ decorative method on the surfaces of colloidal sol particles, is used as a basal film. The basal film is directly added to chemical plating liquid for carrying out chemical plating. Because active component particles on the basal film can be used as crystal nucleus for catalyzing the growth of an active center and metal particles in the process of chemical plating, the chemical plating method cancels the steps of sensitization and activation necessary to the process of normal chemical plating. Moreover, the chemical plating method has the functions of accelerating the deposition rate of metal and simultaneously avoiding the deposition of the metal on a non-target surface of the basal film.

Description

A kind of chemical plating method for preparing the metal-ceramic composite membrane
The present invention relates to preparation of inorganic, the ceramic composite membrane of metal active component that specifically provided modification that a kind of at first in-situ modification method by the colloidal sol surface makes, be counterdie with this composite membrane again, directly carry out the new method that chemical plating prepares the metal-ceramic composite membrane.
Inoranic membrane is owing to have good heat endurance and machinery and structural stability, the ability of anti-chemical reagent and microbial attack, easily purify, add that it has bigger finishing potentiality than organic film with the performance of regeneration, therefore it replaces traditional organic film material and has very attractive prospect as a kind of separation membrane on the one hand, exists on the other hand from the realistic possibility of inoranic membrane acquisition reaction with the new chemical materials that separates difunctional unification (catalytic membrane).Thereby the research of relevant inoranic membrane more and more is subject to people's attention.When but inoranic membrane was applied to gas and catalytic reaction, its separative efficiency was lower.Therefore, the gas separative efficiency that how to improve inoranic membrane is one of people institute focus.Because the gas permeability of inorganic porous membrane is higher, people attempt to improve the selectivity of perforated membrane to gas by the film finishing.This method is to come the modified membrane surface by introducing certain material, because this material energy is preferential and certain gas interacts, improves the infiltration diffusing capacity on film surface, thereby has improved membrane separation efficiency.Though but by introduce certain active material on the porous ceramics composite membrane, this material and some gas have stronger interaction, thereby can improve the selectivity of film to these gases.Yet in a lot of fields as needing a large amount of High Purity Hydrogen even ultra-pure hydrogen in electronics, metallurgy and the petro chemical industry, this separation of having modified the ceramic composite membrane of active material obviously can not satisfy needs high-purity and the ultra-pure hydrogen preparation, in order further to improve the selecting property earlier that film separates hydrogen, to satisfy the needs that high-purity ultra-pure hydrogen and high efficiency hydrogen separate, people concentrate on sight on the compact metal film one after another, are representative with palladium and palladium alloy membrane especially.Early stage palladium and palladium alloy membrane all are non-supported, owing to be subjected to the restriction of factors such as mechanical strength, the thickness of these palladiums and palladium alloy membrane is generally greater than 150 μ m.Because hydrogen sees through the speed and the film thickness of palladium and palladium alloy membrane and is inversely proportional to, the film thickness increase means the reduction of the saturating hydrogen speed of film, and film thickness increases simultaneously, causes metal consumption to increase, thereby causes that cost increases.The metal composite film that development in recent years goes out successfully overcomes these shortcomings, this composite membrane be by the thin metal teleblem with high saturating amount high selectivity be supported on the porous, inorganic counterdie with high thermal stability and mechanical stability and, these porous, inorganic counterdies such as stainless steel, cellular glass, pottery, porous silver etc., thus guaranteed that metal composite film not only has favorable mechanical stability but also have higher permeability.The preparation method of metal composite film also has a variety of, and close with the present invention is chemical plating method.Equipment is simple owing to having for this method, cost low and can deposit the complete teleblem of one deck on the counterdie of arbitrary shape and hardness becomes metal composite film preparation method commonly used.So-called chemical plating, for example concerning palladium, the metastable complex compound that is actually palladium is reduced the reduction of agent hydrazine hydrate and decomposes generation metallic state palladium nuclear on the substrate target surface, and these palladium nuclears just in time are the catalyst of this reduction reaction, thereby this reduction reaction with self-catalysis feature is proceeded, and palladium nuclear constantly generates, increases and the fine and close one deck of formation in substrate surface.Yet some substrates such as cellular glass, pottery even stainless steel etc. do not have enough catalytic activitys to above-mentioned reduction reaction, therefore can not start this reduction reaction quickly, need very long induction period and reduction reaction is carried out.In order to eliminate this induction period, before chemical plating, also must on the substrate target surface, form enough palladium nuclear as the activated centre, with the above-mentioned reduction reaction of catalysis.Conventional method is to obtain by pre-sensitizing activation process, yet the preprocessing process cycle of this sensitization activation is grown but also can introduce some impurity.
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of chemical plating method for preparing the metal-ceramic composite membrane, this method can save in the conventional chemical plating process the sensitization activation step that must carry out, and the metal deposition velocity is accelerated, and has also avoided the deposition of metal on the non-target surface of counterdie simultaneously.
The chemical plating method of preparation metal-ceramic composite membrane provided by the invention, the counterdie that it is characterized in that 1. carrying out the metal-ceramic composite membrane before the chemical plating is by utilizing colloidal sol surface in situ method of modifying, make metal Pd, Rh or Ag ionic adsorption contain the oxide sol that metal component is modified to the colloidal sol surface preparation, again with this colloidal sol with casting technique dip-coating porous ceramics, the ceramic composite membrane that the metal active component of drying-roasting-reduction acquisition has been modified in advance is as counterdie; 2. be placed directly in the ceramic counterdie that contains metal composite film and carry out chemical plating in the plating bath, make the metal-ceramic composite membrane.The preparation of its chemical plating fluid and carry out the chemical plating process and can carry out according to a conventional method.The chemical plating method of preparation metal-ceramic composite membrane specifically of the present invention is pressed following step:
