3、ECIAL EXTERIOR PLATING - BRIGHT OR LOW GLOSS DECORATIVE WSB-M1P78-B4 OVER FERROUS SURFACES - SPECIAL EXTERIOR 1. SCOPE These specifications define performance requirements for finished coatings of electrodeposited copper, nickel, and chromium for the decoration and protection of ferrous surfaces. 2.

4、 APPLICATION These specifications were released originally where a bright or low gloss decorative and protective metallic finish is required on ferrous surfaces. Four levels of performance are defined as follows: WSB-M1P78-B1 Interior part applications. WSB-M1P78-B2 General exterior part application

5、s. WSB-M1P78-B3 Special exterior part applications requiring superior appearance and improved durability. WSB-M1P78-B4 Special exterior part applications requiring improved durability. CAUTION: Based upon field survey and accelerated laboratory testing experience, plated parts with designs that are

6、not in conformance with the Corporate Plated Part Design Restrictions Booklet (see para 5.1) will not be capable of consistently meeting the requirements of these specifications on a production basis without the use of extraordinary processing techniques, e.g., use of auxiliary anodes, reduction in

7、the parts per rack ratio, etc. FEASIBILITY If the requirements of this specification cannot be met due to part design restrictions, the supplier will inform the responsible product engineering office. Additionally, a “Bumper Plating Restrictions“ Booklet (see para 5.2) was developed to identify thos

8、e bumper design parameters that provide a basis for consistently meeting the requirements of these specifications without the use of extraordinary processing techniques. 3. REQUIREMENTS All requirements identified for each specification must be met to achieve acceptable field durability. No one requ

9、irement, exclusive of others, is capable of insuring satisfactory performance. Any deviations to the requirements of these specifications may be subject to additional performance requirements. All part testing requirements apply to those areas of the part identified as a significant surface per para

10、 5.3 unless otherwise specified on the engineering drawing. ENGINEERING MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONWSB-M1P78-B1/B2/B3/B4Printed copies are uncontrolled Copyright 2003, Ford Global Technologies, Inc. Page 2 of 6 3.0 STANDARD REQUIREMENTS FOR PRODUCTION MATERIALS Material suppliers and part producers must

11、conform to the Companys Standard Requirements For Production Materials (WSS-M99P1111-A). 3.1 STATISTICAL PROCESS The following characteristics shall form part of the Control Plan but shall in no way preclude the control of additional characteristics deemed significant by the supplier and/or Ford SQA

12、. Significant Characteristics (See requirement values within the body of these specifications) . Plating Thickness . Plating Ductility . Microporosity . S.T.E.P. Potential . Sulphur Content 3.2 APPEARANCE All parts shall have the finish (bright, low gloss or paint overlay) specified on the engineeri

13、ng drawing. The plated parts shall be free from surface imperfections. Low gloss or black parts shall match the approved Styling master sample for appearance. 3.2.1 Buffing of Plating Because of the potential adverse effect on corrosion resistance, buffing of final chromium plating on exterior parts

14、 is not permitted. Brushing or other approved mechanical treatment on nickel coatings are permitted provided that minimum plating thickness requirements are met after treatment. 3.3 PLATING ADHESION (ASTM B 571) Adhesion of the electroplate to the base metal and between layers of plating must confor

15、m to the requirements of the following test methods per ASTM B 571 unless otherwise indicated. 3.3.1 Bend Tests (Bend the part or sections of the part) No peeling, flaking, or lift-off of the electroplate from the substrate or between layers of the electroplate is permitted following the Bend Tests.

16、 3.3.2 Grind-Saw Test No lifting or peeling of the electroplate from the substrate or between layers of the electroplate is permitted following the Grind-Saw Test.

17、ge 3 of 6 3.4 DUCTILITY (ASTM B 490) Although this is considered a portion of the process control and not a requirement of part performance, the ductility of the electrodeposit on a finished part is considered acceptable when foils plated in the individual nickel baths meet or exceed the following v

18、alues: Semi-bright Nickel 80% Bright Nickel 20% 3.5 PLATING THICKNESS (ASTM B 487, ASTM B 556) It is the suppliers responsibility to identify the plating thickness distribution for each unique part design and rack design by mapping the plating racks and plated parts and to employ any special process

19、ing techniques, e.g., the use of auxiliary anodes and/or shields, reducing the number of parts per rack etc., which may be required to consistently meet the specified minimum plating thicknesses on all significant surfaces. The optical measurement of copper and nickel deposits on significant surface

20、s shall be considered the standard thickness test method (ASTM B 487). The chromium plate thickness on significant surfaces shall be checked by the spot test as described in ASTM B 556 or by the Coulometric method, ASTM B-504. In case of difference, ASTM B 504 shall be the umpire method. The plating

21、 thickness requirements identified below represent minimum values in micrometers and apply to all areas of significant surfaces.

The sulphur content is specified to indicate the type of nickel plating solution that is to be used and may be measured per the test procedures identified in ASTM B 456. In-process testing to dete
