| Abstract Scope |
Magnetic field-assisted electrosynthesis is a novel and innovative processing technique that presents new opportunities for microstructure control and enhanced processing efficiency. In particular, a superimposed magnetic field during electrodeposition induces a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) effect that is generated by the Lorentz force which may enhance convective flow and has been shown to incorporate particles in excess of conventional electrodeposition. Here, Ni/Al2O3 is co-deposited with permanent Ne2Fe14B magnets in a modified Watt’s type bath. We explore different processing parameters, such as magnetic field orientation and Al2O3 particle size, and their influence on the coating structure. Nano- and micron-sized particles are examined. Small-scale wear analysis is evaluated in light of the microstructural modifications. |
