Abstract
The influence of the composition of electrolytes on the content of boron and aluminum in composite electrochemical coatings Ni-B, respectively, as promising high-energy materials, has been studied. The highenergy properties of Ni-B coatings are due to the reaction of formation of nickel boride Ni3B during the interaction of nickel and boron with the release of a large amount of thermal energy. The optimal ratio of the components in the Ni-B composite is 75 %at. nickel to 25 %at. boron. It can be concluded that the electrolyte based on the deep eutectic solvent mixture of choline chloride ethylene glycol is highly effective in obtaining high-energy composites Ni-B. The use of this electrolyte allows for obtaining the optimal ratio of nickel and boron, and, consequently, the greatest completeness of the reaction when using this CEP as high-energy coatings.
