PROSES PELAPISAN NIKEL DIATAS AL DENGAN METODE ELEKTROPLATING

Abstract

Metal coatings are starting to be widely used as a way to prevent metals from corroding. In addition to preventing corrosion, metal coatings have been developed to thicken metals, increase hardness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. Characterization of the materials used using SEM, and XRD. The SEM characterization results show a crystal shape similar to a pyramid. The increasing coating time will increase the crystal size with the preferred plane orientation direction is [111] with the largest crystal size in the experiment with a time of 4.5 h which is 55.44 nm using the Williamson-Hall method.
