Abstract
We have studied the possibility of obtaining nickel-phosphorus coatings doped with copper (0.5–2 wt %) by chemical deposition from weakly acidic solutions containing nickel and copper salts and sodium hypophosphite, as well as malonic, succinic, and aminoacetic acids as complex-forming and buffering components, and a lead salt as the stabilizer at pH 6.3–7.0 and a temperature of 87–97°C. The solution composition has been optimized using the method of mathematical experiment planning so as to provide the deposition at a maximum rate.
