Abstract

This document specifies the method for non-destructive thickness measurement via the magnetic type of electrodeposited nickel coatings, also called "e-nickel", on magnetic or non-magnetic substrates. It can be that the method is not applicable to autocatalytic (electroless) nickel coatings depending on their chemical composition since this coating is often non-magnetic. For the purposes of this document, two types of substrates are distinguished: a) nickel coatings on magnetic substrates (type A coatings). b) nickel coatings on non-magnetic substrates (type B coatings). Not all instruments are applicable to both types of coating. The effective measuring ranges of instruments using the principle of magnetic attraction are up to 50 µm for type A coatings, and up to 25 µm for type B coatings. For instruments using the principle of reluctance, the effective ranges are much greater, up to 1 mm or even more. This method is applicable for both types of coatings.
