Electrolytic Binary Metal-oxide Compounds. Main Peculiarities of their Formation and Structure

CZU 621.357.6

Specific peculiarities and quality differences between the electrolytic binary metal-oxide systems (V–Mn, Co–Ni, Co–Cr, Mn–Ni, Mn–Cr) and individual oxides contained therein have been investigated on the basis of the experimental and literature data. The individual oxides interact with each other in the binary system, forming a complex structurally homogenous conglomerate. The characteristic feature of deposits of binary compounds is fine-grained close-packed structure of predominantly columnar (filamentous) type, resulting from the mutual suppression of growth of the basic and alloying metal-oxide components. 

Keywords: binary metal-oxide compounds, homogenous conglomerate, structure of residual matter, formation mechanism.
