“…Electrodeposition is a simple, well-developed, and low-cost technique that is commonly used to obtain various metal and alloy coatings on an industrial scale [1] , [2] . Recently, fast development of nanotechnology promoted extensive studies on advanced multifunctional coatings, which possess improved, and often even unique properties as compared with traditionally used metallic coatings [3] , [4] , [5] , [6] . Electrodeposition allows for the controlled incorporation of the second phase particles into the metal matrix, thus such composite coatings are usually characterized by improved microhardness, functional properties, wear- and corrosion resistance, which extends their potential applications [7] , [8] , [9] , [10] , [11] , [12] .…”
