Metallic and other inorganic coatings - Electrodeposited coatings of tin-cobalt alloy (ISO 26945:2011)

This International Standard specifies electrodeposited coatings of tin-cobalt alloy of approximate composition 75 % (mass fraction) to 80 % (mass fraction) tin, remainder cobalt, as a substitute for decorative chromium coatings of 0,1 μm to 0,3 μm thickness. Hardness and wear resistance properties of the coatings obtained are not equivalent to those of chromium coatings, but similar to those of tin-nickel alloy coatings. Tin-cobalt alloy coatings can be applied by rack or barrel plating processes. This International Standard does not specify requirements for the surface condition of the basis metal prior to electroplating.

Metallische und andere anorganische Überzüge - Galvanische Überzüge aus Zinn-Cobalt-Legierungen (ISO 26945:2011)

Diese Internationale Norm legt galvanische Überzüge aus Zinn-Cobalt-Legierungen mit einer Zusammensetzung
von etwa 75 % (Massenanteil) bis 80 % (Massenanteil) Zinn, Rest Cobalt, als möglichen Ersatz für
dekorative Chromüberzüge mit einer Dicke des Überzugs von 0,1 μm bis 0,3 μm fest. Härte und Verschleißwiderstand
von Zinn-Cobalt-Überzügen entsprechen nicht den Eigenschaften von Chromüberzügen, sind aber
vergleichbar mit denen von Zinn-Nickel-Legierungsüberzügen.
Zinn-Cobalt-Legierungsüberzüge können auf Trommel- oder Gestellware aufgebracht werden.
Diese Internationale Norm stellt keine Anforderungen an den Oberflächenzustand des Grundmetalls vor der
galvanischen Metallabscheidung.

Revêtements métalliques et autres revêtements inorganiques - Dépôts électrolytiques d'alliage étain-cobalt (ISO 26945:2011)

L'ISO 26945:2011 spécifie des revêtements électrolytiques d'alliage étain-cobalt dont la composition est approximativement de 75 % (fraction massique) à 80 % (fraction massique) d'étain et le reste de cobalt, pouvant remplacer des dépôts de chrome décoratifs de 0,1 μm à 0,3 µm d'épaisseur. Les propriétés de dureté et de résistance à l'usure des revêtements d'alliage étain-cobalt ne sont pas équivalentes à celles des dépôts de chrome mais elles sont similaires à celles des dépôts d'alliage étain-nickel.
Les revêtements d'alliage étain-cobalt peuvent être appliqués par la technique de dépôt à l'attache et au tonneau.
L'ISO 26945:2011 ne spécifie aucune exigence concernant l'état de surface du métal de base avant dépôt électrolytique.

Kovinske in druge anorganske prevleke - Galvanske prevleke kositer-kobaltovih zlitin (ISO 26945:2011)

Ta mednarodni standard določa galvanske prevleke kositer-kobaltovih zlitin s približno sestavo 75 % (masnega deleža) do 80 % (masnega deleža) kositra, preostanek je kobalt, kot nadomestek za okrasne kromove prevleke z debelino 0,1 μm do 0,3 μm. Dobljena trdota in odpornost prevlek proti obrabi nista enakovredni trdoti in odpornosti kromovih prevlek, podobni pa sta trdoti in odpornosti prevlek iz kositer-nikljevih zlitin. Prevleke iz kositer-kobaltovih zlitin se lahko nanašajo z galvanizacijo z obešanjem ali v galvanskih bobnih. Ta mednarodni standard ne določa zahtev za stanje površine osnovne kovine pred galvanizacijo.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 26945 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 107, Metallic and other inorganic coatings.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 26945:2008), of which it constitutes a minor
revision.

Introduction
Electrodeposited coating of tin-cobalt alloy is characterized by its bright surface which is similar to decorative
chromium coating. Hardness and wear-resistance properties of tin-cobalt alloy coatings are not equivalent to
those of chromium coatings, but are similar to those of tin-nickel alloy coatings (see ISO 2179). Thus,
tin-cobalt coatings may be regarded, as far as surface lustre is concerned, as one of the possible alternatives
to chromium coating. Due to its higher current efficiency (more than 70 %), tin-cobalt alloy coatings can be
applied by rack-and-barrel plating processes to a wide range of complicated shapes and sizes, e.g. nuts, bolts,
rivets, etc.
