Abstract:
Coated articles and methods for applying coatings are described. In some cases, the coating can exhibit desirable properties and characteristics such as durability, corrosion resistance, and high conductivity. The articles are coated, for example, using an electrodeposition process.
Abstract:
Coated articles, electrodeposition baths, and related systems are described. The article may include a base material and a coating comprising silver formed thereon. In some embodiments, the coating comprises a silver-based alloy, such as a silver-tungsten alloy. The coating can exhibit desirable properties and characteristics such as durability (e.g., wear), hardness, corrosion resistance, and high conductivity, which may be beneficial, for example, in electrical and/or electronic applications. In some cases, the coating may be applied using an electrodeposition process.
Abstract:
Coated articles and related methods are described. In some cases, the coated articles may exhibit high strength, hardness, brightness, abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, and other desirable structural and functional properties. In some embodiments, the coatings may include an alloy, such as a nickel-tungsten alloy and/or metal oxides.
Abstract:
Magnets including a coating and related methods are described herein. The coating may include an aluminum manganese alloy layer. The aluminum manganese alloy layer may be formed in an electroplating process.
Abstract:
Coated articles and methods for applying coatings including a layer comprising Rh and/or Ru are described. In some cases, the coating can exhibit desirable properties and characteristics such as durability, corrosion resistance, and high conductivity. The articles may be coated, for example, using an electrodeposition process. The articles may comprise a base material, a barrier layer formed on the base material, a metal layer formed on the barrier layer, and a layer comprising Rh and/or Ru formed on the metal layer and having a thickness between about 1 microinch and about 5 microinches.
Abstract:
Articles including a nickel-free coating and methods for applying coatings are described herein. The invention related to nickel-free coating formed on the substrate, the coating including a first metallic layer formed on the substrate, wherein the first metallic layer comprises silver; and a second metallic layer formed on the first metallic layer, the second metallic layer comprising rhodium.
Abstract:
Coated articles and methods for applying coatings are described. The article may include a base material and a coating comprising silver formed thereon. In some embodiments, the coating comprises a silver-based alloy, such as a silver-tungsten alloy. The coating may, in some instances, include at least two layers. For example, the coating may include a first layer comprising a silver-based alloy and a second layer comprising a precious metal. The coating can exhibit desirable properties and characteristics such as durability (e.g., wear), hardness, corrosion resistance, and high conductivity, which may be beneficial, for example, in electrical and/or electronic applications. In some cases, the coating may be applied using an electrodeposition process.
Abstract:
Electrodeposition baths, systems and methods are provided. In some embodiments, the baths, systems and methods are used to deposit metal alloy coatings.
