Fatigue Property of Electroless Ni–P Plated A7075-T6511 Alloy Affected by Plated Film Composition

Structural Characterization and Mechanical Properties of As-plated and Heat Treated Electroless Ni-B-P Alloy Coatings

The Ni-B-P alloy coatings were made autocatalytically (electroless) using an alkaline plating bath with nickel chloride hexahydrate (NiCl2.6H2O) as the source of nickel ions, sodium borohydride (NaBH4) and sodium hypophosphite (NaH2PO2) as reducing agents and source of boron and phosphorous ions, respectively. The effects of bath concentrations on the plating rate, composition of coating, surfa...

Aptamer-Based Single-Step Assay by the Fluorescence Enhancement on Electroless Plated Nano Au Substrate

A new single-step aptamer-based surface-enhanced fluorescent optical sensor is built, by combining an aptamer-target interaction for target recognition and a fluorophore interaction for signal enhancement. The developed aptasensor is simple, sensitive, specific and stable for the detection of thrombin. A new nanometallic Au structure in the range of 100 nm was constructed through effective elec...

INVESTIGATION OF THE MECHANICAL, CORROSION PROPERTIES AND WEAR BEHAVIOUR OF ELECTROLESS Ni-P PLATED MILD STEEL

In the present study the mild steel (MS) specimens were coated with Nickel-Phosphorus (Ni-P) using acrylic bath. Heat treatment was carried out on specimens under different temperatures and time periods in an inert atmosphere. The various mechanical and tribological tests were performed on specimens. Using weight loss method, the corrosion nature of the samples under different environments was ...

Prediction of Electrical Contact Resistance of Tin-Plated and Silver-Plated Terminals

Automotive wiring harness helps the interaction between electrical equipment such as in-vehicle controllers, sensors, actuators, and lamps. An automotive connector, on the other hand, is one of the important parts, which connects wiring harness to other harnesses or electrical devices. Automotive connector terminals are generally made of tin, gold and silver plated copper alloys. Figure 1 shows...
