Some Practical and Theoretical Considerations of Corrosion and the Role of Chromium - The 12th William Blum Lecture

This paper is a re-publication of the 12th William Blum Lecture, presented at the 58th AES Annual Convention in Buffalo, New York, on June 14, 1971. The corrosion of plated coatings under varying environmental conditions, including the effect of polarity, porosity, combination of plate, as well as thickness and other factors on the durability of the plated product is covered.

Electroplating of Carbon Nanotube Yarns and Tapes with Five Metals

Carbon nanotube (CNT) tapes and yarns can reduce the weight of industrial cables for aviation and space by substituting for copper. In order to attach CNTs to connectors, one high-reliability method of attachment is soldering, which is difficult; however it can be facilitated by electroplating. In this study, CNT tapes and yarns were plated with Cu, Ag, Ni, Sn and Au.
