Abstract

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Ni-Co nanocomposites Prepared by electrodeposition in a modified Watts bath containing various quantities of silicon carbide SiC and the organic additive sodium dodecyl sulfate SDS as a surfactant. The influence of nanoparticle incorporation on the electrodeposit microstructure, mechanical characteristics, and deformation process was studied. Vickers micro-hardness and weight loss tests were used to study the mechanical properties and morphology. The microstructure has also been analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Co-deposition of uniformly dispersed SiC particles, on the other hand, was found to improve the extreme tensile strength of the deposits significantly; SDS lowered the surface tension, allowing the SiC particles to fill in all remaining gaps to achieve a homogeneous surface. A process involving atoms that can dramatically improve flexibility. The incorporation of SiC particles and raising the strain rate encouraged a ductile fracture mode in a nano-crystalline Ni-Co matrix, which demonstrated a mixed mod behavior of flexible and brittle fracture; it was evident that the addition of SDS increases the concentration of SiC particles in general on Ni-Co samples. Moreover, compare Ni-Co with various amounts of SiC and Ni-Co/SiC with adding SDS. Furthermore, to achieve the highest possible electroplating efficiency.</jats:p>
