Resumen

The aim of this work is to obtain nanocomposite layers having a cobalt matrix with zirconium oxide nanoparticles (mean diameter 30 nm) through the electrodeposition process. The plating electrolyte suspension is prepared by adding ZrO2 nanoparticles in a sulfate-chloride cobalt electrolyte at a concentration of 0 and 10 g·L-1. The electrodeposition is performed at room temperature, using three current densities of 23, 48 and 72 mA·cm-2 and three deposition times of 30, 60 and 90 min. The influence of current density, time and nanoparticles concentrations on the characteristics of the obtained nanostructured layers are also discussed. ZrO2 ceramic nanoparticles as a dispersed phase in the cobalt deposition electrolyte modify the mechanism of its electro-crystallization, so they participate in this process by increasing the rate of cobalt deposition, confirmed by the thickness of the nanocomposite layers obtained. The paper presents some of the comparative results obtained regarding the thickness of the layers, the current efficiency and the inclusion of the nanoparticles into nanocomposite layers depending on the current density and time of the electrodeposition process. The analysis of Co/nano-ZrO2 nanocomposite layers with the help of optical light microscopy and electronic microscopy in cross-section highlights the good degree of adhesion of the layers to the metallic substrate made of 304L stainless steel. The results of the study show that as the current density and time increase, the thickness of the composite layers increases. The efficiency of the process is improved compared to the electrodeposition of pure cobalt layers. The degree of inclusion of ZrO2 nanoparticles increases with time and decreases with increasing of imposed current density on the electrodeposition process. The distribution of the dispersed phase in the cobalt metallic matrix is uniform. The layers obtained in this study can be applied in aircraft technology, in the automotive industry, as well as in biomedical applications in order to improve the properties and to increase the corrosion or tribocorrosion resistance in a specific environment.
