The thickness of the gold-plated layer of gold-plated tungsten wire has a certain impact on performance. Generally speaking, the thicker the gold plating layer, the better its corrosion resistance and conductivity. However, too thick a gold plating layer may also affect the mechanical properties and thermal stability of tungsten wire. Specifically, the thickness of the gold plating layer has the following effects on the performance of tungsten wire:
Corrosion resistance
The gold plating layer protects the tungsten wire from corrosion, so the thicker the gold plating layer, the better its corrosion resistance. However, too thick a gold plating layer may also affect the mechanical properties and thermal stability of tungsten wire.
Conductive properties
The gold plating layer has excellent conductive properties and can improve the conductive efficiency of tungsten wire. However, if the thickness of the gold plating layer is too thick, it may also affect the thermal conductivity of the tungsten wire.
Mechanical behavior
The thickness of the gold plating layer also has a certain impact on the mechanical properties of tungsten wire. Too thick a gold plating layer may reduce the strength and toughness of the tungsten wire.
Thermal stability
The thickness of the gold plating layer also affects the thermal stability of the tungsten wire. An excessively thick gold plating layer may cause problems such as deformation or cracking of the tungsten wire at high temperatures.
