“…Structural modification of service properties of material parts area is increased by depositing adherent tiny coatings of small and/or nano dimension on the surface of the material [5]. The deposition might either be to enhance aesthetics or to improve engineering properties [6] [7]. The structural modification imparts new service properties to the materials [8][9].…”

Wear characteristics of the transition metal composite (TMC) coated mild steel are investigated. TMC coatings were performed using electrodeposition technique on mild steel. Different concentrations of transition metals were subjected to prepare the TMC’s and studied. The structural and the micro structural studies of the composites coatings were studied through X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. The elemental compositions of coated composites were evaluated using Energy dispersive X-ray diffraction (EDS) studies. Both the structural and micro structural characterizations confirmed the formation of composite coatings. Further, it is evident from the EDS analyses that TMC’s are coated with the desired concentrations. In order to understand the wear resistance of coated mild steel, the specimen were subjected to load on pin-on-disc type wear tester. The effects of concentration of composite and thickness of the coating on wear resistance are discussed. The coating results in improving the wear resistance and hardness of the specimen

In this study, SiCp/Ni-P nano-composite coatings were fabricated on 45 steel substrates under ultrasonic excitation at temperatures from 85 °C to 45 °C. The micro-morphologies and compositions of the coatings were analyzed using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersion Spectrum (EDS). The deposition rates of the different processes were then investigated using the polarization curve method, the weighing method, and the film thickness method. The effects of sonication on the coating process were also investigated. The results reveal that free energy decreased to 16.38 kJ/mol, which can be attributed to the positive effect of sonication on the reaction activity. Furthermore, the deposition rates of the composite plating decreased with the process temperature. Specifically, the deposition rates measured by the polarization curve method, weighing method, and film thickness method decreased from 0.625 mg/(cm 2 •h) to 0.116 mg/(cm 2 •h), from 3.9 mg/(cm 2 •h) to 1.6 mg/(cm 2 •h), and from 36.64 μm/h to 7.05 μm/h, respectively.
