Nano carbon film was synthesized on a nickel substrate in molten LiCl - KCl - K 2 CO 3 salt by an electrolytic deposition method. The influence of pulse frequency on the property of the carbon films was studied. Over the carbonate ion concentration range of 0.10–0.20 mol%, the mass of carbon film on unit area increases with increasing pulse frequency over the range of 0.05–33Hz or 33–166Hz, whereas, it decreases with increasing pulse frequency over the range of 33-166Hz. It means that a critical pulse frequency exists, which can be thought to correspond to the natural vibration frequency of the film. When the electrolytic pulse frequency is equal to the natural vibration frequency of film, a resonance maybe happen, and the film exfoliates.
A new kind of electrolytic deposition method to obtain activated carbon atoms to prepare nano carbon film in molten salt was developed. The experimental results on various substrates indicated that nano carbon film could be synthesized on substrates of nickel, copper, iron and titanium by an electrolytic deposition method in molten salt under suitable conditions. Decreasing reasonably carbonate ion concentration is an efficient methods to accelerate the growth of deposition film and improve its quality.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
