Cu-Sn-Zn coatings have been widely used in industry for their unique properties, such as good conductivity, high corrosion resistance and excellent solderability. To further improve the mechanical performance of Cu-Sn-Zn coatings, powder-enhanced method was applied and Cu-Sn-Zn-TiO₂ nano-composite coatings with different TiO₂ concentration were fabricated. The microstructure of Cu-Sn-Zn-TiO₂ nano-composite coatings were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The mechanical properties of coatings including microhardness and wear resistance were studied. The results indicate that the incorporation of TiO₂ nanoparticle can significantly influence the properties of Cu-Sn-Zn coatings. The microhardness of Cu-Sn-Zn coating was increased to 383 HV from 330 HV with 1 g/L TiO₂ addition. Also, the corrosion resistance of coating was enhanced. The effects of TiO₂ nanoparticle concentration on the microstructure, mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of Cu-Sn-Zn-TiO₂ nano-composite coatings were discussed.
