摘要

A study has been made of the zinc-iron alloy electrodeposition system, using chloride solutions, to establish the composition dependence upon the deposition parameters of current density and agitation achieved by rotation of cylindrical cathodes, It is shown that a deposit composition of approximately 10 to 80 percent iron in zinc can be consistently obtained, thereby enabling two layer deposits to be obtained from a single solution by varying these two parameters, Additions of ammonium chloride act not only as conductivity salts, but as deposit grain refiners.
