Abstract
During the last decade it has become widely appreciated that the nature of the current form used for deposition has a marked influence on the crystal structure of the deposit and, consequently upon deposit properties such as hardness and internal stress. Studying the effect of superimposing alternating current on nickel deposits produced from a sulphamate solution, highly disoriented texture with high hardness and low internal stress was found. The best result was achieved with an iac to idc ratio of 3:1.
