Abstract
Bronze coatings are widely used across various industries due to their excellent properties. However, achieving uniform composition and thickness, adopting environmentally friendly technologies, and enhancing manufacturing efficiency remain significant challenges. In this study, a multiphysics model was developed by coupling convection, cation transport, and electrochemical reactions to simulate jet electrodeposition in small-diameter holes. The influence of anode design and cation concentration on the chemical composition and thickness of bronze coatings was investigated via a combination of simulation and experimental validation. By analyzing the interactions among convection, diffusion, and electromigration, the mechanism of jet electrodeposition was elucidated. The results showed strong agreement between simulations and experiments, confirming that the jet electrolyte effectively disrupts the diffusion layer, thereby sustaining the reaction on the cathode surface. This work provides valuable insights into optimizing jet electrodeposition for the fabrication of high-quality bronze coatings in deep small holes.
期刊介绍:
Electrochimica Acta is an international journal. It is intended for the publication of both original work and reviews in the field of electrochemistry. Electrochemistry should be interpreted to mean any of the research fields covered by the Divisions of the International Society of Electrochemistry listed below, as well as emerging scientific domains covered by ISE New Topics Committee.
