Popis: |
By means of X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and transmission electron microscope (TEM), the micro-structure of 5 different Ni–B alloy coatings prepared by electroless plating with Potassium borohydride content ranging from 0.2 to approximately 1.4g/L was studied The influence of the KBH4 content in the coatings on their micro-structure was also investigated. It has been found that Ni–B alloy coatings showed amorphous sytuctue with XRD while with TEM it showed a combination of amorphous and nanocrystalline structure. It was further revealed that the amorphous structure increased with increasing KBH4 content, which means that Ni-B alloy coating prepared with increasing KBH4 content undergoes a transition process as follows: nanocrystalline → crystalline → amorphous structure. Results indicated that the micro-structure of Ni-B alloy coatings should be studied by both methods of XRD and TEM. |
