Mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of Ni-Co-SiC composite coatings by magnetic field-induced jet electrodeposition

Ni-Co alloys and Ni-Co-SiC composite coatings were manufactured by magnetic field-induced jet electrodeposition. The microstructure and nanoparticles distribution of the coatings were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry, and X-ray diffraction. The surface roughness, adhesion and corrosion resistance of the coatings were measured using a three-dimensional profilometer, a scratch...
