Development of Electroless Ni-P-ZrO₂Nanocomposite Coatings by Codeposition of Mechanically Reduced ZrO₂ Nanoparticles

Abstract:

In this study, an attempt has been made to develop electroless Ni-P-ZrO₂ nanocomposite coatings on mild steel substrate where the reinforced nanosized ZrO₂ particles were prepared by mechanical milling using high energy planetary ball mill. An alkaline bath was used with a suspension of ZrO₂ particles (4 g/L) for the synthesis of Ni-P-ZrO₂ composite coating. The surface morphology, size range and phase analysis of as-prepared ZrO₂ particles were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and the properties of the coatings such as hardness and wear (ball-on-disc) were investigated and compared with Ni-P deposits. The results showed that as-prepared ZrO₂particles exhibit irregular shaped and size ranges from 14 to 17nm. After heat treatment (400°C,1h), the microhardness and wear resistance of the coatings are significantly improved. The Ni-P-ZrO₂ nanocomposite coatings exhibit enhanced wear resistance over NiP coating.
