Microstructure and thermal stability of nickel layers electrodeposited from an additive-free sulphamate-based electrolyte
The influences of the current density and the temperature on the microstructure and hardness of Ni layers electrodeposited from an additive-free sulphamate bath were investigated. The microstructure and thermal stability of the electrodeposits was investigated with a combination of transmission and scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction; the Vickers hardness was measured in cross sections.
The present is meant as a reference for forthcoming articles on the investigation of various strengthening mechanisms on the microstructure, hardness and thermal stability of Ni (alloys) electrodeposits.
