    Abstract:
    In this work, it was investigated the effect of solubility in supercritical CO2 on the nickel-electroplating characteristics. The plating characteristics could be controlled by electric resistance and dispersion in emulsion as well. CO2 concentration had better be controlled at lower concentration than 50 CO2 wt% to decrease electric resistance since supercritical CO2 is non-polar material. Non-ionic surfactant with EO/PO block copolymer was more efficient than any other surfactant and the dispersion at 0.2 surfactant wt% was better than at any surfactant concentration and over-added surfactant concentration over 0.2 wt% brought to the decrease of dispersion properties. Electric resistance was constant at 20Omega in ranging from pH 2.2 to pH 3.5 and increased slowly to 50Omega at pH 4 and rapidly to 400Omega at pH 5. Characteristics of nickel film has a close relation with solubility in supercritical CO2 and solubility is dependent on pressure and temperature. Solubility at 16 MPa was higher than that any other at pressure and at constant pressure of 16 MPa, solubility in supercritical CO2 increased with an increasing temperature from 31 to 45 degrees C and decreased over 45 degrees C.
