Electroless nickel plating has undergone a sea change over the last decade. These coatings find wide application in the automotive and aerospace industries. As a means of overcoming problems associated with corrosion, abrasive wear and for the metallizing of nonconducting materials, this technology is rapidly expanding. Of all the electroless nickel plating processes available, the most widely used is the nickel phosphorous alloy acid bath. The main objective of our project is to codeposit TiO2 with Ni-P at different concentrations and to study the mechanical and corrosion properties of the deposits.
