“…These include oxides such as Al 2 O 3 , ZrO 2 , TiO 2 and Cr 2 O 3 or carbides like SiC, WC, TiC or nitrides like Si 3 N 4 (Bahrololoom & Sani 2005;Jung et al, 2009;Srivastava et al, 2010;Krishnaveni et al, 2008;Stroumbouli et al, 2005;Gay et al, 2001).The metals mostly used are copper and nickel (Low el al., 2006) however other metals like zinc, silver and, alloys have been used (Gomes et al, 2005;Gay et al, 2001;Tulio & Carlos 2009;Muller et al, 2002;Tian & Cheng, 2007). The most studied system has been the Ni-SiC due to its potential technological applications (Low et al, 2006;Hovestad & Janssen 1995;Zimmermann et al, 2002;Hou et al, 2002;Garcia et al 2001;Gyftou et al, 2005;Lekka et al, 2005). Therefore, considering the variety of metals, which can be electrodeposited, electrochemical composite deposition enables the production of a wide range of composite materials that compared to the pure metal coatings have improved physical and (electro)chemical properties (Hovestad & Janssen, 2005).…”

“…The coatings of this nature are being widely used for surface protection of various metal articles, including internal combustion engine cylinders. There are reports on the incorporation of nanosize SiC, ZrO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , TiO 2 , La 2 O 3 and CeO 2 in the nickel matrix forming nanocomposites and their improved corrosion and wear resistances [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. The unique mechanical and electronic properties of zirconia (ZrO 2 ) ceramics have led to their widespread use as structural materials, solid-state electrolytes, and thermal barrier coatings.…”

Properties of electrodeposited Ni-composite coatings containing ceramic particles are very much dependant on the bath used, current density, duration of deposition, particle content in the bath, etc. In the present study, the influence of process parameters like the concentration of particles, current density and time of deposition on the area fraction of yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ), the microhardness and the thickness of the electrodeposited nickel (Ni)-YSZ composite coating was analyzed by Taguchi Design method and analysis of variance (ANOVA). According to the experimental results and ANOVA, the interaction of current and time are the most significant factors influencing the thickness of the coating; interaction of concentration of particles in the electrolyte bath and current are the most significant factors influencing the microhardness; and concentration of particles in the electrolyte bath is the most significant factor affecting the area fraction of particles in the Ni matrix. Models were developed for predicting the microhardness and thickness of the composite coating and area fraction of particles incorporated in the nickel matrix. They were found to be in good agreement with the experimental results. The models were tested for experimental conditions and were found to be close to predicted values. The thickness of the deposit was mainly dependent on the current density and duration of plating. On the other hand, the microhardness of the coating and area fraction of particles present in the nickel matrix were mainly dependent on the amount of particles present in the bath.

“…Furthermore, various methods such as electrodeposition, ion implantation, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), laser beam deposition, physical vapor deposition (PVD), plasma, and high-velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) spraying have been developed [7,8]. Among these procedures, electrochemical plating is a proper method with remarkable features such as easy maintainability, easy low working temperatures, low cost, and high production rate [9]. In chemical techniques, surfactants have been used to absorb much more �ne particles into the matrix, so that the repulsion force between particles with the same charges can be increased.…”

“…Additionally, nickel as an engineering material was broadly used among the electrodeposited materials [11]. Many studies illustrated that deposition of coatings in the presence of �ne particles such as hard materials (e.g., SiC [12,13], Al 2 O 3 [12], WC [14], and diamond [15]) or lubricating particles (e.g., MoS 2 , PTFE, and graphite (Gr) [16,17]) into the nickel matrix might effectively improve the mechanical and tribological properties of the surfaces [9]. Also, numerous researchers have studied synthesis of Ni-based nanocomposites by electrodeposition for instance Ni-SiC [18][19][20], Ni-P-SiC [21], Ni-Al 2 O 3 [22], and Ni-ZrO 2 [22].…”

Nickel-based nanocomposite coatings were prepared from a Watts-type electrolyte containing reinforcement's particles (silicon carbide and graphite) to deposit onto the steel St-37 substrate. e electrochemical plating of the coatings in absence and presence of surfactants and reinforcements particles was carried out to optimize high quality coatings with appropriate mechanical and morphological features. e surfactants such as cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), sodyumdodecyl sulfate (SDS), and saccharine affected electrodeposition plating and subsequently changed mechanical characteristics. Based on XRD results, the dominant phases in the absence of surfactants were nickel oxide (NiO), nickel, and silicon carbide (SiC), while the main phases in presence of surfactants were nickel (Ni) and SiC. e hardness of the resultant coatings was found to be from 332 to 593 (Hv) depending on the bath parameter and the reinforcements weight percentage (wt%) in the Ni matrix. Microscopic observations illustrated a cluster-like structure which consisted of some �ne sphere particulates with average particle size of 65-150 nm. According to elemental mapping spectra, a homogenous distribution of nickel, silicon, and carbon particles appeared into the nickel matrix coating. Finally, the experimental outcomes demonstrated that the surfactants have signi�cant in�uence on the composition of coatings, surface morphology, and mechanical properties.
