Abstract

A method for application of an adherent platinum (Pt) and platinum-rhodium (Pt-Rh) alloy plate to a titanium (Ti) substrate includes steps of surface pretreatment, anodization, and electrodeposition of Pt and Pt-Rh alloy from their electrolytic baths consisting of H2Pt2Cl6·6H2O (20 gL−1), and HCl (300 gL−1) for a Pt bath. The Pt-Rh bath consists of H2Pt2Cl6·6H2O (20 gL−1), and HCl (300 gL−1) and Rh2 (SO4)3 (2 gL−1). At the optimum conditions of electroplating, the Pt and Pt-Rh deposits were formed over the anodized Ti substrates with high adhesion, brightness, and high current efficiency (35.33% for Pt and 70.38% for the Pt-Rh alloy).
