Creating technology for preparing of solutions for chemical nickel plating of metal products intended for machine-building in order to achieve durable coating with high hardness

Since the end of the 19th century, nickellization has become the most common method of "refining" the surface of metal products. The wide distribution of nickel coating in galvanoplasty is explained by the valuable physicochemical properties of electrolytically precipitated nickel. The most common application of nickel is for two purposes: protection of the parent metal against corrosion and decorative surface coating. Such coatings are widely used for exterior parts of cars, bicycles, various devices, tools, surgical instruments, household articles, etc. The project proposal concerns the development of recipes and the preparation of solutions for the chemical nickeling of metal products intended for machine-building. Specifically, special sets will be used to accelerate the nickellization process. It has been found by experimental evidence that using the solutions prepared in this way a uniform, durable, high-hardness coating is achieved. In order to protect the environment, a lower concentration of all chemicals involved in the process of nickellization will work. The project proposal will create a high-tech enterprise in the town of Sliven, which is a town with traditions in mechanical engineering. Many units and production cycles of engineering are independent, enabling specialization in separate production processes and cooperative production. This feature allows for greater mobility of production, which is a prerequisite for optimizing the territorial organization of production and increasing its efficiency. The project proposal is in line with the National SME Promotion Strategy 2014-2020 for the development of new enterprises in specific areas related to overcoming European and regional challenges, promoting entrepreneurship, developing competitive and efficient production and ensuring a stable economic growth, as well as sustainable employment through the realization and marketing of entrepreneurial products and services.
