Abstract

Effect of electroless Ni-P plating on the plane bending fatigue strength and crack propagation for an aluminum and an aluminum casting alloy (AC2B) was investigated using a uni-bending fatigue test machine at a cycle of 30Hz. Electroless Ni-P plating of the 20μm deposited film in thickness results in about 20 to 30% improvement of fatigue strength for an aluminum and the heat-treated AC2B casting alloy. An electroless Ni-P amorphous film has an effect to delay the nucleation of fatigue cracks and improve the fatigue strength.
