Electrodeposition is a process that uses an electric current to reduce dissolved metal cations so that they form a coherent metal coating on an electrode. This technique is widely used for metal finishing, corrosion protection, and manufacturing of electronic components due to its ability to produce uniform and adherent coatings with precise control over thickness and composition.

Electrodeposition

Electric current is the flow of electric charge through a conductor, typically measured in amperes. It is a fundamental aspect of electricity, enabling the operation of electrical devices and the transmission of power across distances.

Corrosion protection involves the application of techniques and materials to prevent or reduce the degradation of metals and other materials due to environmental interactions. Effective corrosion protection extends the lifespan of structures and components, thereby ensuring safety and reducing maintenance costs.
