Abstract

This article involves the study of the electrodeposition of composite coatings that form when colloidal particles deposit onto an electrode at which metal electrodeposition simultaneously occurs. The codeposition process of polystyrene (PS) and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) particles from a copper plating bath on a rotating disk electrode (rde) was investigated both theoretically and experimentally. The influence of the fluid flow velocity, density, mean size and zeta-potential of the particles, viscosity and temperature of the plating bath on the deposition rate of particles is studied using the theoretical model. The predictions of the model are compared with experimental results.
