Mechanism of incorporation of carbon nanomaterial particles in composite electrolytic metal coating

Abstract

The problem of joint electrolytic deposition of metal ions and ultradispersed diamond particles into a metal matrix is formulated. The mathematical model describing the mechanism and kinetics of the cathodic process, the mass transfer of metal ions and carbon nanomaterial particles is developed. It has been established that transfer of particles of the dispersed phase occurs mainly not by the diffusion mechanism but under the influence of an electric field. Keywords: ultradispersed diamond particles, electrodeposition, composite electrolytic coatings.
