Abstract
Investigations of the synthesis of multicomponent coatings and their subsequent application to metal substrates to increase the wear resistance of materials is relevant for industry. Nickel compounds obtained from oxidized magnesia-iron nickel ores with a desorption rate of more than 94% were used to create Ni-MoO3-WO3 electroplating. Such composite samples formed from an aqueous alcohol solution reduced the content of sodium and ammonium chlorides. The annealing and dehydration of samples at a temperature of 725 °C in an air atmosphere made it possible to achieve the highest level of crystallinity. In this case, an isomorphic substitution of W atoms by Mo occurs, which is confirmed by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy studies. The invariance of the shape of the EPR spectrum with a sequential increase in microwave radiation power revealed the stability of the bonds between the particles. The surface morphology of Ni-MoO3-WO3 films deposited on an Al substrate is smooth and has low roughness. In this case, an increased degree of wear resistance has been achieved. Thus, a recipe for the formation of an electroplating with stable bonds between the components and increased wear resistance was obtained.
