Nickel pulse electrodeposition is one of the coating methods that used to increase the corrosion resistance and improve the mechanical properties. In this study, nickel was used as the anode and martensitic stainless steel 410 was used as the cathode. The solution used in the method of nickel pulse electrodeposition include nickel sulfate, nickel chloride, and boric acid. Pulse electrodeposition parameters are variation of duty cycle of 70, 80, 90% and frequency variations valued at 0.1, 1, 10, and 20 kHz. Temperatures used in research nickel pulse electrodeposition at 50 ºC, with a current density of 15 A / dm² and 18 minutes. The Scanning Electron Microscopy analysis determine the microstructure and grain size changes after a nickel pulse electrodeposition. The polarization test determine optimum rate of corrosion when 90 % duty cycle and 20 kHz frequency.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
