Effect of surfactant on the morphology and anti-tarnishing behaviour of Ag coatings electrodeposited from a novel cyanide-free thiosulphate-based electroplating bath

The microstructure and protective properties of electroplating zinc films on NdFeB from a chloride-free nonaqueous bath

“…[12][13][14] Metal coatings, such as Ni, [15][16][17][18] Ni-P, 19,20 Ni-Cu, 21,22 Zn, [23][24][25][26] are the most popular choices in the industry. So far, aqueous electroplating is still the most widely used method of metal coating deposition, [27][28][29][30] although physical vapor deposition, [31][32][33] chemical vapor deposition, 4 thermal spraying, 34 and other technologies have also developed. Unfortunately, NdFeB is prone to corrosion during the aqueous electroplating process due to exposure to the electrolytic bath solution.…”
