While a nickel mesh and an expanded nickel sheet are used as current collectors for supporting active anode materials in rechargeable batteries, a porous nickel substrate is studied extensively for its 3-dimensional structure which has high capabilities for active materials and current collection. Optimum plating conditions were studied by polarization measurement. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) showed that both electroless-and electro-plated nickel on an urethane substrate were highly porous and consisted of nearly spherical pores. The diameter and the channel size of the pores were found to be 300~500 $\mu\textrm{m}$ and 50~200$\mu\textrm{m}$, respectively. The shape of skeleton resembled a triangular prism with length extending about 50~100 $\mu\textrm{m}$.

복합재료의 기계적 계면 특성을 향상시키기 위하여 탄소섬유에 무전해 니켈도금 표면처리를 하였으며, 표면처리된 PAN계 탄소섬유를 에폭시수지에 함침시켜 프리프레그법으로 일방향 탄소섬유/에폭시수지 복합재료를 제조하였다. 본 연구에서는 무전해 니켈도금으로 유기된 취성-연성 전이 특성을 가지는 Ni-P 합금의 양에 따른 복합재료의 층간전단강도(ILSS)와 충격강도의 차이를 조사하였다. 또한, 탄소섬유 표면 특성의 변화를 X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS)로 측정하였다. 그 결과, 무전해 니켈도금된 탄소섬유 표면의 $O_{ls}$ /$C_{ls}$ 비 또는 니켈 (Ni)과 인 (P)이 증가되었으나 ILSS의 향상에는 큰 영향을 미치지 못하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그러나, 무전해 니켈도금으로 탄소섬유 표면에 도입된 Ni-P 합금은 복합재료의 연성에 따른 충격강도를 향상시키는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

The effect of metal turnover (MTO) of electroless Ni plating bath on the brittle fracture behavior of electroless nickel electroless palladium immersion gold (ENEPIG)/Sn-3.0wt%Ag-0.5wt%Cu(SAC305) solder joint was evaluated in this study. The MTOs of the electroless Ni for the ENEPIG surface finish were 0 and 3. As the MTO increased, the interfacial IMC thickness increased. The brittle fracture behavior of the ENEPIG/SAC305 solder joint was evaluated with high speed shear (HSS) test. The HSS strength decreased with increasing the MTO of the electroless Ni bath. The brittle fracture increased with increasing the shear speed of the HSS test. The percentage of the brittle fracture for the 3 MTO sample was much higher than that for the 0 MTO sample.

Nickel was plated electrolessly on 304L stainless steel powder. To obtain uniform coating and dispension of powder, the bath was continuously agitated with magnetic stirrer. The various pH and bath temperatures were studied. The conditions were in the range of $pH4{\sim}10$ and $45{\sim}65^{\circ}C$, respectively. The coating morphologies were examined by SEM/EDS tests. The optimum condition was pH9 at $55^{\circ}C$.

Cu is considered as a promising alternative interconnection material to Al-based interconnection materials in Si-based integrated circuits due to its low resistivity and superior resistance to the electromigration. New humping and UBM material systems for solder flip chip interconnection of Cu pads were investigated using electroless-plated copper (E-Cu) and electroless-plated nickel (E-Ni) plating methods as low cost alternatives. Optimally designed E-Ni/E-Cu UBM bilayer material system can be used not only as UBMs for solder bumps but also as bump itself. Electroless-plated E-Ni/E-Cu bumps assembled using anisotropic conductive adhesives on an organic substrate is successfully demonstrated and characterized in this study

In this work, electroless Ni-plating on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) ultra-fine fibers surfaces was carried out to improve the electric conductivity of the fiber. The surface properties of PET ultra-fine fibers were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and contact angle analyses. The electric conductivity of the fibers was measured using a 4-point testing method. The experimental results revealed the presence of island-like nickel clusters on the PET ultra-fine fibers surfaces in the initial plating state, and the electric conductivity of the Ni-plated fibers was enhanced with increasing plating time and thickness of the Ni-layers on the PET ultra-fine fibers.

In this work, we employed an electroless nickel plating on glass fibers in order to enhance the electric conductivity of fibers. And the effects of metal content and plating time on the conductivity of fibers were investigated. From the results, island-like metal clusters were found on the fiber surfaces in initial plating state, and perfect metallic layers were observed after 10 min of plating time. The thickness of metallic layers on fiber surfaces was proportion to plating time, and the electric conductivity showed similar trends. The nickel cluster sizes on fibers decreased with increasing plating time, indicating that surface energetics of the fibers could become more homogeneous and make well-packed metallic layers, resulting in the high conductivity of Ni/glass fibers.

전자칩의 고집적화에 의해 전자기기들은 점점 소형화 되어가고 있으며, 이들 기기들에서 발생되는 열은 기기의 성능 저하뿐 아니라 수명을 단축시킨다. 본 연구에서는 효율적인 방열 위한 마이크로 히트싱크 제조를 위하여 멤브레인에 금속(금, 니켈, 구리)은 도금하는 무전해 도금 방법을 이용하였다. 무전해 도금은 폴리카보네이트 멤브레인을 sensitization과 activation 등의 전처리 후, 도금하고자 하는 금속염 수용액에 침적시켜 실행하였다. 무전해 도금에 의하여 제조된 각각의 마이크로피브릴의 열전달 특성과 방열량은 표면적이 가장 큰 니켈 마이크로피브릴에서 가장 우수하게 나타났다.

Ni coating layers were formed using a newly developed electroless Ni plating solution. The properties of Ni coating layer such as internal stress, hardness, surface roughness, crystallinity, solderability and surface morphology were investigated using various tools. Results revealed that internal stress decreased with plating time and reached $40N/mm^2$ at 20 minutes of the plating time. Hardness increased with increasing P content and thickness. Surface roughness of the pad decreased with Ni and Ni/Au plating. Crystallinity decreased with increasing P content. Solderability based on wettability decreased with Ni and Ni/Au plating. Based on surface morphology, it is expected that Ni coating layer formed using a newly developed electroless Ni plating solution is lower than that formed using a commercial electroless Ni plating solution in possibility of black pad occurrence.

Deposition characteristics of electroless plated Ni-W-P films were investigated for various complexing agents. Used complexing agents are sodium citrate, sodium gluconate and sodium malonate. In this study, the existing mixed potential theory could explain the overall mechanism of Ni-W-P electroless plating for all complexing agents. The deposition rate could be also expected by the theory. The deposited Ni-W-P films were evaluated in term of surface hardness and corrosion resistance. Microhardness of the deposit increased about 1,000 Hv after heat treatment for one hour at $400^{\circ}C$, because it was above the crystallization temperature of $Ni_3P$. The deposited Ni-W-P films can exhibit excellent corrosion resistance in using sodium malonate as a complexing agent, the other hand the using sodium gluconate was the worst corrosion resistance. The worst corrosion resistance was due to a large number of nano-sized pin-holes or small pores. The plating current at the mixed potential increases when the using sodium malonate as a complexing agent, it was explained by the cross section.
