the bath. Initially, add 100 cm3 of acid for each 4kg of Alocrom needed to replenish bath; if necessary increase the amount in 100 cm3 increments, up to a maximum of 1 litre/4 kg until consistent coatings are obtained. The amount of nitric acid added must be kept as low as possible and the maximum must be exceeded. After each addition of acid, wait for several hours before adding more acid to ensure the bath has reached equilibrium

为使镀层正常的形成,ALOCROM 的浴缸应该控制在PH 1.6-2.2 之间。 如果镀层形成的时间比正常的时间要久而且颜色比较淡或没有粘附力,这表示PH 在上升。在补充浴缸的时候,可以添加浓缩硝酸减低PH值。开始的时候,填充浴缸需要每4KG ALOCROM 添加100CM3的酸;必要的时候,以100cm3增加量增加 到 1升/4KG 的最大值。直到获得符合要求的镀层为止。添加硝酸的用量尽可能控制得最小。不能超出最大值。每次添加完酸,要等几个小时才可以进一步添加以确保浴缸平衡。
, O+ x J! a; Y+ C0 J最好,PH常常可以通过添加ALOCROM 浓度的办法来降低而不是添加浓缩硝酸。为此,以1克/升的增加量添加ALOCROM,直到镀层符合要求。总的ALOCROM 浓度不能超过 14KG/1000升,这相当于7cm 3 的滴定数。一旦设立了最佳的操作浓度,那就要根据滴定数,少量添加ALOCROM 1200粉末来确保该浓度。

However, if the oxide skin is heavier eg. on extrusions, heat treated sheet aluminium or cast alloys etc, it will normally need removing with Deoxidiser. See Data Sheet on Deoxidisers 1, or 7/17 for details. 如果氧化皮膜很轻,不要求进一步预清洗。但是如果氧化皮膜比较重,如在挤型材,热处理后的铝板或压铸合金等上的,通常需要Deoxidiser(脱氧剂)去除油脂。有关的明细请参考Deoxidiser(脱氧剂)1、或7/17上面的数据说明书.3 [6 R/ F# t8 K+ Q$ l
/ z/ P6 ^% v" R( q' R( gCopper containing alloys tend to smut in etching alkali cleaners and the copper smut should be removed by dipping the component in 10% nitric acid or Deoxidiser 7/17. Alloys containing more than about 1% of silicon, such as those commonly used for die castings, give a silicon smut if etched in alkali and this cannot be removed by nitric acid or any other practicable methods. Such alloys are best solvent degreased and given a light etch in Deoxidiser 7/17 before the Alocrom treatment.
