Electrodeposition of cadmium from aqueous fluoborate electrolytes

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5526113
; ; ;
A new method of electroplating cadmium on high-strength steel from aqueous fluoborate electrolytes has been developed at Argonne National Laboratory. The cadmium coatings are fine grained, coherent, and strongly adherent to the substrate. With this method, a high-rate electrodeposition is achieved in an electrolyte flow cell using an optimized pulse-nucleation step followed by deposit growth under a DC or pulsed current. This method result in minimal hydrogen codeposition during plating, which can lead to steel embrittlement.
