Abstract

The objective of this work is the characterisation of the composite deposits Ni-Cr2O3 on copper substrate; these deposits are obtained from bath of electro-deposition of Nickel watts. The different electrodeposited layers are characterized by various analytical techniques such as adhesion quality, corrosion tests, Vickers microhardness, morphology by scanning electron microscopy Followed by EDX microanalysis and X-ray diffraction. The corrosion tests are realized in a solution of 3.5 % NaCl using lost mass method, polarization and impedance spectroscopy techniques. It was found that the composite coatings Ni-Cr2O3 have an homogeneous and compact morphology, well crystallized and exhibit a high degree of codeposition of Cr2O3 particles incorporated in the nickel matrix. The co-deposited films have very good hardness, adhere perfectly to the substrate and are more resistant to corrosion.
