An evaluation of Ni-Alumina composite electroplating on mild steel

This thesis deals with an evaluation of Ni- Alumina composite electroplating on mild steel. Electroplating process has been carried out by utilizing the Watt’s Bath with Alumina oxides powder. Weight changes in both electrode shows that weight loss of anode and weight of deposit on cathode are propo...
