Abstract

The possibility of electrochemically forming highly filled composite electrochemical coatings Ni-Al with an atomic ratio of components close to the optimal (1:1) from an electrolyte based on a deep eutectic solvent of choline chloride urea is demonstrated. Aluminum was introduced into the electrolyte in the form of ASD-4 powder. The aluminum additive in such an electrolyte is resistant to oxidation over a long period of time, which ensures the stability of the Ni-Al coating composition. Data on the elemental and phase composition of the Ni-Al electrochemical coatings indicate the potential for their use as high-energy composites. Aluminum is included in the coatings primarily in a metallic, unoxidized state. Both metals are contained in the coatings primarily in the elemental state; intermetallic compounds of nickel and aluminum are not detected. Carbon and oxygen impurities detected in the Ni-Al coatings are associated with the inclusion of components of the deep eutectic solvent and/or products of their electrochemical transformation, in particular, in the form of nickel carbide, in the cathode deposit.
