Electrochemical Production of Metal Powders [Hardcover]

This new volume of Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry reviews different methods for the production of metal powders including mechanical, chemical and electrochemical powders. Electrochemically produced metal powders are of high purity and they are extremely active during sintering. These powders find a wide-range of applications in automotive, aerospace, energy device and electronics industries.This book reviews methods for the production of metal powders including mechanical, chemical and electrochemical powders, which have a wide-range of applications in automotive, aerospace, energy device and electronics industries.Fundamental aspects of disperse metals electrodeposition.- Powdered deposits: types, properties and modelling.- Open and porous copper electrodes formed by the constant and the periodically changing regimes of electrolysis.- Morphology of different electrodeposited pure metal powders.- Morphology, chemical and phase composition of electrodeposited Co-Ni, Fe-Ni and Mo-Ni-O powders.- Electrochemical synthesis of dispersed metallic nanoparticles.- Metallic powders produced by electroless deposition.

Topics in Number 54 include:

• General theory of disperse metal electrodeposition
• Electrodeposition of pure metal powders e.g., Cu, Ag, Pb, Co, Fe and Ni
• Formation of porous Cu electrodes by constant and periodically changing regimes of electrolysis
• Morphology, phase and chemical composition of electrodeposited Co-Ni, Fe-Ni and Mo-Ni-O powders
• Electrodeposition of dispersed nanoparticles
• Electroless deposition of metal powders from aqueous solutions
