A mathematical model for the periodic electrodeposition of multicomponent alloys

  • 1. Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, University of California, Berkeley, California

Description

A mathematical model is presented for the electrodeposition of multicomponent alloys by an arbitrarily specified current source. The model takes into consideration transient, convective mass transfer to a rotating disk electrode, Butler-Volmer kinetics, and individual component activities in the electrodeposit. The model can b used to calculate current-potential relationships, ionic concentration profiles, and electrodeposit composition. Results for square-pulse, pulse-reversal, and triangular current waveforms are presented. An analogous model for potential-controlled electrolysis is also discussed
