The crystal structure and lattice parameters of Cu in Cu-Bi composite coating were measured and compared with Cu coating. The mechanical properties of the coatings were also studied. It was found that the deposition parameters have significant effect on the mechanical properties of the Cu-Bi coatings. The microhardness has been improved from HVso165 of Cu coating to HVs0 250 of Cu-Bi composite coating prepared at 50 mA/cm2 for 20 min. Correspondingly, wear resistance of the Cu-Bi composite coating has also been enhanced significantly.展开更多

The cross-section microstructures and chemical compositions of coating were examined using scanning electron microscopy(SEM) equipped with energy dispersive analysis of X-rays(EDX).Potentiodynamic polarization curves and salt spray tests were employed to evaluate corrosion protection of the coating to substrate in 5%NaCl solution.It is indicated that electroless copper produces a rough interface between the electroless copper layer and the ceramic layer.The corrosion potential shifts to the positive direction significantly and the current density decreases by more than one order of magnitude.There is no visible galvanic corrosion pits on the surface of the composite coating combination of PEO and electroless copper after 168 h neutral salt spray testing.The color of copper after BTA immersion could be held more than 60 d.展开更多
