The Sn-based ZrSiO 4 nanocomposite coatings have been synthesized by pulse co-electrodeposition technique from an aqueous electrolyte containing SnCl 2 AE2H 2 O, C 6 H 17 N 3 O 7 , Triton X, and varying amounts of nano-sized ZrSiO 4 particles (0,5,10,15,20,25,30, and 35 g/L). As-deposited films have been analyzed using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer, and transmission electron microscope. The microhardness, wear as well as corrosion property of the coatings have been also evaluated. It is observed that the surface morphology of Sn-ZrSiO 4 nanocomposite coatings is strongly dependent on the reinforcement concentration in the electrolyte, and the Sn-ZrSiO 4 nanocomposite solder deposited from the electrolyte containing 25 g/L ZrSiO 4 yields the highest hardness and the best wear and corrosion property among all the synthesized samples. The whisker growth propensity of the developed Sn-ZrSiO 4 nanocomposites has also been examined after 90 days of aging at room temperature and reported here.
