Self-lubricating metal-matrix composite CuZn-graphite coatings obtained by electrodeposition from near neutral solutions. Surface morphological analyses and chemical composition
Abstract:CuZn coatings were obtained from cyanide-free electrodeposition solutions, pH 6.6, containing graphite particles (2 µm) dispersed on them. The aim is to obtain CuZn metal-matrix composites with lubricating graphite particles as the dispersed phase. These composites, obtained by electrodeposition are called electrocomposites. They can be considered self-lubricating. Surface morphological analysis of these deposits reveal a compact fine-grained layer and above this a 7 ARTICLE TH 56 Self-lubricating metal-matrix… Show more
