Composite plating coating

The co-deposition of microparticles with metal ions in an electrolytic bath under the influence of electric field to form a composite plating coating containing those microparticles.

The following protocols are not optimized procedures for EIA, but they are suitable for screening, e.g., for antibody titers of sera or mAb cell culture supernatants. A high-performance EIA has to be evaluated with respect to selection of type of microtiter plates, coating concentration, coating conditions, analyte dilution, sample buffer, washing buffer, incubation times and temperatures, conjugate dilution, and substrate composition. 

In electrochemical composite plating inert particles are deliberately added to the plating bath to obtain metal matrix composite coatings. Figure 1 shows an example of metal matrix composite coating of electroless nickel-phosphorous in which silicon carbide particles are incorporated. The particle materials used should be inert to the bath in the... 

PTFE composite plating by the electroless plating method excels in its workability for producing hard coatings. Accordingly, plating material manufacturers generally... 

Niederhauser et al ° used the alternative approach of coating the molybdenum disulphide in a sputtered coating with PTFE to protect it from attack by moisture. They found that there was some reduction in corrosion of a steel substrate, although a greater reduction was obtained when the coating was sputtered onto a rhodium interlayer. Zhai et al also reported some improvement in the stability of a composite plating when cerium was incorporated to coat the molybdenum disulphide and reduce moisture attack, but they did not directly assess corrosion resistance. 

Graphite-based composites and metal/alloy materials both have their own advantages and drawbacks. Current research interests in bipolar plate materials include both graphite composites and coated metals. No doubt progress on these materials will eventually lead to substantial reduction in the volume and cost of the fuel cell stack.
