Abstract:To improve the surface quality and properties of nanocomposite coatings, a method using pulsed current-jet electrodeposition was adopted to prepare Ni-Al2O3 nanocomposite coatings. The effects of nanoparticle concentration and pulse current on the surface morphology, grain size and performance of the coatings were examined. The surface morphology of the coatings and the distribution of nanoparticles were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. The microstructure and grain size of the coatings were studied by X-ray diffractometer. The microhardness and corrosion resistance of the coatings were characterized by microhardness tester and electrochemical workstation, respectively. The results showed that, adding proper amount of nano-Al2O3 in plating solution can improve the microhardness and corrosion resistance of the coatings. The coatings prepared by pulsed current-jet electrodeposition possessed smoother surface morphology, finer grain size and better dispersion of nanoparticles compared with the coatings prepared by direct current-jet electrodeposition. The former exhibited higher microhardness and better corrosion resistance compared with the latter.
