Revision in electrochemical coating
Type of electrochemical processes for the production of surface coatings
• Electroplating– Uses external power sources to reduce metal ions to metal deposit.– Requires the substrate to be electrically conductive.
• Electroless deposition– Uses chemical reaction to reduce metal ions.– Requires substrate to be catalytically active.– Does not requires an external power sources to initiate deposition.
• Immersion deposition– Metal ion is reduced from the solution by exchange with metallic
substrate. – Type of metal that can be deposited depends on the metal
substrate and metal ions in solution. (Electromotive Series Table).– Displacement Reaction.
Type of electrochemical processes for the production of surface coatings
• Anodizing– Anodic oxidation of metal to form metal oxide.– Metal oxide forms at the anode.– Requires the external supply of high voltage, e.g. 10 to 100 V
to form oxide layer.– Oxide layer thickness, e.g. 10 to 100 m.
• Plasma electrolytic oxidation– Anodic oxidation of metal to form metal oxide.– Uses higher voltage than anodizing, e.g. 100 to 1000 V.– Metal oxide forms at the anode.– Thicker oxide layer than anodizing, e.g. 100 to 500 m.
Current efficiency
• The percentage of the current which goes to the useful electroplating reaction.
• Is the ratio between the actual amount of metal deposit, Ma to that calculated theoretically from Faradays Law, Mt.

Faradays Law:
The mass of metal electroplated is directly related to the number of coulombs passed through the electrochemical reactions.

A Worked Example: Facts
• 200 cm3 of an acidic solution of 0.1M copper
sulphate pentahydrate (CuSO4.5H2O) is
electrolysed using inert electrodes.
• Molar mass of copper, M = 63.54 g mol-1
• Faraday constant, F = 96 485 C mol-1
A Worked Example: Questions on reactions
• A sketch is useful.
• What is the cathode reaction?
• What is the anode reaction?
• What is the cell reaction?
• At which electrode does reduction occur?
Answers on reactions
• Cathode reaction:
Cu2+ + 2e- = Cu
• Anode reaction:
H2O - 2e- = 2H+ + 1/2O2
• Cell reaction:
Cu2+(l) + H2O(l) = Cu(s) + 2H+
(l) + 1/2O2(g)
• Reduction (electron gain) occurs at cathode
A Worked Example: Questions on Concentration
• What is the concentration of dissolved
metal in units of
– mol dm-3
– g dm-3
– ppm
Answers on Concentration• The concentration of dissolved metal is the same
as that of the compound, i.e.:
c = 0.1M = 0.1 mol dm-3
• The concentration on a mass basis is:
c = (0.1 mol dm-3)(63.54 g mol-1)
c = 6.354 g dm-3
• Expressed as parts per million (= mg dm-3):
c = 6.354 x 103 mg dm-3
c = 6354 ppm
A Worked Example: Questions on mass
• What is the mass of dissolved metal in g?
Answers on Mass
• The mass of dissolved copper, w, is given by the product of concentration (on a mass basis) and solution volume:
w = (6.354 g dm-3)(200 cm3)
w = (6.354 g dm-3)(0.200 dm3)
w = 1.271 g
A Worked Example: Questions on Electrical Charge
• Calculate the electrical charge needed to
remove all of the copper from solution.
Answers on
Electrical Charge, q
q = nzF
n = (0.1 mol dm-3)(0.200 dm3)
n = 0.0200 mol
q = (0.0200 mol)(2)(96485 C mol-1)
q = 3859.4 C
